Get High
we started off the night with a dinner at season's cafe taman pelangi. there were ed, yi & daughter, sue, don, FL, alice & micky. sue, don & FL purposely came in from singapore to attend the dinner & party. i was really touched. once everybody has settled down nicely at the long table & ordered their respective choice of food, i began to take photos with everyone. some were photo shy. but i forced them anyway. we chatted...we make jokes...we laughed...we gossiped...we shared opinions... i thought we were the noisiest people around.
after the meal, we proceeded to ye lai xiang. a very popular disco back then. ed booked a big room. the room was nicely decorated with balloons & ribbons. there was also a karaoke set for people to sing. ed ordered one round of beer for the first comers. i started the ball rolling by choosing a few popular songs. as i was not a good singer, i passed the mick around. being the birthday man, i demanded everyone to sing at least a song. they all gave in to my wishes.
slowly other friends arrived. stan & friend, may & friend, elaine, wk, helen & yap. more rounds of beer flowed in. i was busy serving beer. not wanting to see any empty glasses around. i also bottoms up with a few friends. yi & helen bought a orange colour short sleeve shirt with squares for me. i liked the shirt & wore it immediately. stan said that i looked smart in that shirt.
time flies when you are having fun. it was 12 midnight. time to cut the birthday cake. the cake was given free of charge by the disco. may & ed sang the birthday song in mandarin, english & cantonese. i made a wish, cut the cake & distributed to everyone. the taste was bad though. a lot of leftovers.
it was a great party but i was unhappy with ed & may. they should not have bought the pills. it was wrong. i just hope that they realise it.
