Its been more then a week after my birthday celebrations.

I feel as if it was just yesterday. Had so much fun.. Really can't forget the whole event. Since we had it all captured on tape and photos, I can watch it again and again. Yippeeee~!

I wanted to update my blog on my birthday and all but due to my very busy schedule, I could not find time to blog it all down. Nevertheless, let me just say how I felt from the eve onwards.

On the 24th, I was rushing my stuff up in the office as I was planning for the long weekend. My beloved colleagues surprised me with an unexpected treat at Swensens and they had also presented me a beautiful wallet accompanied by a birthday card with sweet messages. I was very touched! After that, I spent a while in the office clearing some stuff and then I met Prita, Dharsh and Kohi for some last minute shopping. We needed to get some gifts to present to the winners of the 'games' organized at my party. After some long shopping, we headed back home pretty late reaching a few minutes before midnight. I was damn shacked out. Then came my birthday greetings one by one.. My dad was the first to wish me in person.. Balan was the first through sms and Ganesh was the first through phone. Trust me.. I'm quite particular about these kinda actions sometimes. Lol.

Then came the cute birthday call from Prita, Kohi and Shanty. They made up a choir team and sang me the birthday song. So cute! Lol. Then many messages followed up brightening up my day ahead. Thanks to everyone for all your wishes. Appreciate it alot. :)

Soon was the morning. I quickly woke up and took a good shower before heading down to the hairdressers. Needed to style my hair mah! I had a tough time waking Dharsh up to accompany me but she wasn't to be blamed considering the time we slept the night before. So yea.. We made our way to the hairdressers and got our hair done. Then Ganesh surprised me with a visit and his birthday gifts. After that we headed back home to start getting changed. My mother then asked me to sample her vegetarian cooking for the guest at my function. A while later Prita and Kohi came over to help out with the preparations. I think we spent a lot of time on that not realising that we were very late for the function. My father left early so that he could oversee whats going on. The girls as usual, needed more time. Lol. Soon Prita and Dharshi left with my mum to the venue first. (They had alot of stuff to do.. Like briefing the MCs and DJs on the plan.. and laying out the guest books..etc etc) My dear good friend Prita told me that she will telephone me to signal me on what time to leave my house so that the timing will be just right. (So that I can give the 'grand' appearance). Kohi was accompanying me at home till then.

I was waiting and waiting and waiting. No calls at all! Gruff! Soon my father bombarded me with calls asking me to leave ASAP. Both my dad and myself were furious as both Dharshi and Prita didn't answer any of our calls. They went erm.. Missing? So I and Kohi got a cab and rushed to the venue. In the meantime we were trynna call that two doinks. I think we would have left like 25 missed calls? They refused to answer! Man.. And when we called the rest at the party to find out if they had already reached, we were told they hadn't reached there yet. Gosh.. I and Kohi were freaked out. Our imaginations went wild. Where could have my mum, sis and friend disappeared to? Soon we were already reaching the venue. Then Prita called. I went like 'UNAKU FONE ADICHA EDUKKA THERIYAATHA?!?!?!' Then she was like 'Sorry lah.. We left our phones at the back of the taxi' Aiyo! These doinks ah!

So we alighted and when I reached the place I could feel eagles flying in my tummy. Right. Not butterflies. EAGLES. I mean.. I was damn nervous. The attention was going to be on me and I felt horrible. Then my sis was like.. "Hey later the DJ will announce lets arise for the birthday gal ah.. Then the attention will be on you.. you know? Then you will have to walk in ah.." ALAMAK! Eagles started flying faster lah! I think my face looked really horrible that Prita was training me on how to smile and walk gracefully during the 'grand appearance'.

So I made the 'grand appearance'. Wasn't that bad lah. I think can make it. I really faked a big smile and walked towards the cake. Then came the phototaking sessions. (Which I'm very horrible at) After that torturous shots, the two MCs were interviewing me and asking me to sing two songs. I need to kill Anastasia for sabotaging me man! She requested for the MC to ask me to sing Avvaiyaar's "Nyaanapazham" song.. Actually I used to irritate my secondary sch buddies singing these kinda 'old is gold' songs. She found this perfect opportunity to sabo me. :(

The MC didn't give me any chances. But due to my prestige problems I discounted a little and sang another song instead. Then the MCs were asking me to dance.. GRRRR.. I'm not those sporty sporty people and I really find it very paiseh to dance infront of so many people.. So I then striked the best pose of the evening. The 'Sir Stamford Raffles' pose. Refusing to move an inch. Then Prita darling came to my rescue. We both did some salsa moves. Wahahaha.. Then the party proceeded..

The main highlights were Prita's and Kohi's dance performance for the 'Kozhi Vada Kozhi' song, Prita and her cousin's dance performance for the 'Yemmadi Aathadi' song and the couple dancing games. *Grinz*

Although the game planning screwed up a little, the MC did a good job by creating another game out of it. We all enjoyed ourselved. (I certainly did.)

Left the place with cherished memories and precious gifts. This birthday.. I will never forget.

Thanks once again to all of you who attended my party. Love you lots. Umuacks umuacks.

P.S. Umuacks to the special someone who stole my heart at my birthday. Only a few people know who is that. Haha. Let that remain a mystery for now. Yea.. Will be uploading pics of the birthday soon so look out for that yea!

Peace.
