37, going on to 38!

Yesss...its time to bring out the party hats and birthday candles...and not forgetting the fire extinguishers! And for those of you who dont know what I'm talking about...ITS PAS. GIDEON'S BIRTHDAY!!!

Yup, time for you to get yourself a Facebook account...:) With all their reminders, you just can't miss anything these days...

Haha...this one was totally hilarious birthday surprise, I'm telling you. Let me recap for you the sequence of events (roughly):

16th Sept
10.00am: SMS was sent out to the youths, informing them of the surprise birthday party for Cmdr. Gideon. The party animals were told to park their cars at the backlane, and use the backdoor to get into the house.


8.40pm: Youths began gathering at the backlane, and entered into the empty house of Pas. Gideon (whole family was out for dinner). Never ever has a backlane seen so many cars and happening youths. If the police was around, surely all kena rounded up under ISA. Many thanks to Serena for passing us a set of the housekeys...we made sure to make duplicates in case next time we wanna do more surprises for the whole family. :)

9.10pm: All the balloons, banners, and mini blowhorns were ready. The surprise crew was waiting anxiously for the return of Pas. Gideon and family. Hehehe...

9.20pm: After many blue moons, finally...Pas. Gideon's car pulled up to the driveway. The youths were all hiding at the staircase...waiting to pounce on him and test his heart's durability to shock. And true enough...the moment he came close enough......SURPRISEEEEE!!! The entire troop of monkeys and party animals sprang out, blowing our little serunai horns, balloons flying everywhere...it was just kecoh!!! :)

Many thanks to the organizers for the superb planning...indeed, Pas. G was surprised (and terribly frightened...althought he wont admit it). I'm sure he'll be keeping his eyes and ears opened for next year's bday party! Haha....

Enjoy the pics, yea ppl...

As usual, Su Vien thinks she's cute with all her weird facial expressions...now that's what I call a lovely cake!

Our photographer for the night, Kenny Chin...somehow, he always seems to have his camera wherever he goes. In the toilet, shower, sports, church, work, sleep....hmm...


The PA (party animals) waiting anxiously...some lost weight while waiting...hot and stuffy ma...


Hehe...dont you love the bday banner? He's actually 38 this year...so I guess Pas. G can recycle the banner for his 40th bday bash!


Here's the bday boy complaining how come got so many candles...we had to call the Bomba to be on standby...:)

Check out the 50-cent face, wei...here seen making a birthday wish.


And yes...the customary game of removing the candle using your mouth. Thank God Eric didn't ruin the cake by pushing Cmdr's head into the cake! :) Cauz if he did...boy oh boy...we really wanted to eat the cake!

Poor baby Josiah was in shock...firstly, because he was going like, "Where in the world did all these creatures appear from???" And secondly, "What in the world are they doin in MY house???" And thirdly..."How in the world did they get in here???" Such a cutie la this fella...

See la...this is how Lee Chong Wei is gonna' look like 10 years down the road...

Just like any happening birthdays...there were free flow of drinks and food...too bad only soft drinks. The closest thing to alcoholic drinks was Root Beer.

Hehe...here's Cmdr. Gideon and Elisa, who lost her two front teeth in the space of one week! I know what song she'll be singing this Christmas...
