jianwei bdae celebration

boring day at school. kept getting pinpointed by the maths tutor for talking in class. anyway i also don't really care. Huiqi finds him very cute though, because he kept saying "Ah..." in between his sentences. but he is a much better tutor than the one we had for last semester, so i shouldn't complain so much.

right after my Japanese lesson { アホ, a ho = stupid } i rushed back for the barbecue. tonight was supposed to be celebrating JianWei's birthday. i kept asking for details from Benjamin by sms but he totally ignore me. Mel had to call him to squeeze out the bits of information. so bad.

there were Akshay, De Yang, Ky Meng, Jiaying (girlfriend), Benjamin, Pascal, JianWei, MeiYun (girlfriend), Mel and me. Adrian joined us for a while here and there as he was still busy trying to settle the design for the sub-committee's tee-shirt.

Akshay is a damn good cook. (comparable to Dumbo) the chicken and stingray done by him all tasted fantastic. the satay they got was nice too. a pity some of the chicken wings got burnt because everyone else was busy eating and forgot to watch over them. Mel loved the wedges MeiYun prepared beforehand.

a pity it began to rain halfway through the BBQ. we had to shift into a small area outside the function hall and raise another fire with an aluminum tray and more charcoal plus fire starters. the wind was quite strong and we were all kind of cold in the weather. it was only with much effort before the fire started burning strong.

then Pascal taught us the German's way of drinking beer. they shake the can of beer, then poke a hole at the side. the mouth have to be positioned at the hole before opening the can tab. the pressure from the top then pushes the beer out from the poked hole and gushes into the mouth swiftly forcing the drinker to drink very fast at a go. both JianWei and Ky Meng tried it but Ky Meng drank faster and got a bit wobbly.

after that was the birthday cake cutting ceremony! JianWei chose the cake himself - fruit cake from Prima Deli. too bad there was minimal amount of cream on the cake, if not Ben would have wanted revenge for what JianWei did to him on his birthday last year. JianWei must have preempted it. Dumbo joined us just after the cake was cut.

we took pictures using Adrian's camera. my hand was too oily so i never take much photos with my handphone. luckily Dumbo was there, for us to have enough manpower to introduce the NIE pond to JianWei in another perspective --- by being in it. gosh! the guys were all complaining he was very heavy on the ritual there. and JianWei kept struggling making their job even more difficult.

after dumping him in, everyone scattered away. however he did not chase after us so we got worried and the braver ones went back to check on him. who knew, he was hiding in the bush waiting to ambush us. Ben got hugged by him (to make him wet too). i ran like my life depended on it until my slipper fly off. instead of retrieving it, i continued running barefoot until the coast is clear before i dared to go back and take.

i really admire the effort MeiYun has put into planning this birthday celebration for JianWei. preparing the food and everything. it makes me wonder how Dumbo's birthday celebration will turn out into this year...
