ken's 21st SURPRISE party!!

didnt manage to wake up in time for church. all 3 of us woke up late and ended up skipping church for today. i went out to do some grocery shopping for the salad ken's mom asked me to make for ken's surprise party. i went to withdraw more then 300 bucks for the whole party and for my home petty cash, and on my way home i was feeling so insecure cos i was afraid that someone would have seen me draw so much money and snatch my wallet away.

got home, changed and took a cab down to ken's place at 3pm. i was the distraction for the surprise party. my role was to ask him out so he wouldnt stay home or get to the party venue too early. ken left his house at 315pm and went to visit his grandpa, who was admitted into the hospital recently because of some heart problem, before meeting me. so while he was out i used the chance to go to his place without him knowing that i went as i had to leave the groceries i bought at his house for his mom to bring it over to his uncle's condo for me. samantha mark edwyna yihao zhenzhen jefferson hazel evon chiewping peiyi grace went early to help decorate the place. actually, only sam mark and edwyna were the early ones who got there at 5pm and they blew all 100 ballons to decorate the bbq pit! 100!!! haha. yihao's job was to pick the other people mentioned above from the mrt and bring them to the condo, but because he missed the stop and stopped 2 stops away, they had to walk all the way back and only made it to the condo at 6pm.

i hanged at ken's place and chit chat with his mom while she prepared the food. i wanted to help but she didnt need any, so i stood around feeling guilty while she rushed to prepare everything before ken's uncle came to pick her up. i left the house at 4pm to go meet ken at amk hub for some window shopping. my excuse for meeting him was that since i was going to be busy the next whole week, i had to meet him to pass him his birthday present. we went to lunch at the amk S11 and i had my fishball noodles! yumms... wanted to eat soyabean icecream after lunch but was too stuffed. walked around amk but i didnt make it all the way up to the top floor. left amk at 610pm, and ken was suppose to take the bus to woodland but he wanted to walk me to the mrt station, on the way he changed his mind to take the train to woodlands instead and i had to pretend i was going to the airport so i took the opposite train and alighted at bishan and cabbed to woodlands. got there at 625pm, and everyone except ken's sec school friends were there already. went up to ken's uncle's place and wanted to surprise ken with the cake and everything when he walks through the door. i was untying the box of the cake and suddenly ken walks in! and everyone was unprepared for him!! in the end he was the one that surprised us instead of us surprising him. haha. we went down to the bbq pit and his sec sch friends were already there waiting. i can say that the party went well and i was so grateful to God that it didnt rain. i was praying so hard that he would give us good weather because it has been raining the past few nights and throughout the day, and it would have been terrible if it rained during the bbq. my God is the greatest!! haha.

i had to rush off at 8pm after cutting the cake to go to the airport to send dan off. ken sent me to a road at the back but there was not a single available cab in sight. it was 810 and i started to panic because i couldnt get a cab. ken suggested that i go to the other road and while walking out a empty cab passed by and ken flagged it down in time. i told the taxi uncle that i was in a hurry and he drove at average 100km/hr cos it was highway all the way to the airport. i got there at 845 and quickly took a picture with dan and we had a few group pictures too. dan had to rush in cos his parents were rushing him, but he had to wait for me to come. i feel so bad. haha. but glad that i could send him off. miss him already. haha. soon it'll be nic leaving....

took the train home and got myself a chicken burger from macs cos i didnt have anything to eat at ken's party and i was starving. came home and called my daddy and mommy! HAPPY DADDY'S DAY!! and we just found out that we could call them over at cambodia for free...!!! and they have free incoming over there so it's also free!!! haha. going to call them for nothing more often now. haha. i love my daddy and mommy. miss them so much. cant wait for september to come till i'll fly over to see them!!!

i've got to go get some shut eye now. pimples are popping all over the place from lack of sleep and water. will fall sick soon or later if i keep this up. haha. i'm the happiest girl... sweet dreams everyone!

tooooddlesss!

PS: i wanna thank all who came. specially wanna thank ken's mom for helping cook all the food for the party, which was the most important part of the party, sam mark and edwyna for blowing so many balloons, and the other people for coming and making this happen although it is Father's Day and you all probably would have had to sacrifice spending time with your dads today. THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!
