Yup, time for you to get yourself a Facebook account...:) With all their reminders, you just can't miss anything these days...
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. :)
9.20pm: 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....
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...
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...
