Today two unrelated eventful things happened… this is going to be a very wordy post… but I recommend reading it if you have time.
Drunk guy
This morning, at 430am, while I’m sleeping – and in a very deep state of sleep – I thought I heard a knock on my door. But it was so vague that it didn’t really penetrate my consciousness until the next knock. I got up to open the door… but not really expecting anyone cos I thought I was dreaming. But Lina was at the door! (Lina’s my flatmate).
She told me somebody had been trying to get into our apartment for the past 15min! At first I thought “ah?! Break in??” but she went on to say it was probably someone so drunk he didn’t know that he was at the wrong house. We didn’t know whether to open the door to tell him that he was at the wrong place. But in the end we decided to open it… not very smart actually, but cos we knew that Marie had two visitors (one guy and one girl). So we were thinking “well, at least if anything, we can get them up and it will be 5 to 1 with a guy on our side”.
So ta-da! We opened it to see a big sized drunk man. He kept insisting that he stayed here! And he kept trying to get in while saying all the time “I live here, I live here. I got the keys”. No matter what Lina said he replied that.
And then… *jaws music* he pointed to my room and said “that’s my room!” At that point in time, I panicked a bit. I was thinking “Alamak! I don’t want a drunk man to fall asleep in my bed!” That’s when I went to my room, grabbed my keys and locked the door. The guy was just standing outside my door, he didn’t try to budge in, though he said “what the f***” Then I think he tried his keys on my door (but I can’t remember whether he did), and that was when it hit him. Haha… and he was like “What floor is this?” and we were like “3rd!” and then he went “I live on the 4th floor… I’m so sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry…” he apologized all the way out of the apartment.
What a night/day! Fortunately, nothing serious happened due to our stupid move. But then again, I think Lina would have been very disturbed by the key noises he was making as he tried to enter, especially since her room is so near the door (which I agree is unnerving… feels like someone is breaking in).
Birthday Party
Tonight was the surprise birthday party for Yvonne, and a non-surprise birthday party for Hitomi… haha let me explain. I organized a birthday party for Hitomi, without telling Yvonne that it was a double party so that it will surprise her. So it started off with a dinner party for Hitomi with just Andreas, Daryl, Yvonne and me. Then the guys (PH, FX, Ivan, Chee Kiang) rang my doorbell fifteen minutes later. Haha, they brought the lighted candles in and started to sing the birthday song while I got Yvonne the mudpie which I made previously… and Yvonne had no clue at all (even after the birthday song started) until she saw the words on the mudpie cake!!!
Then after that we sang another song for Hitomi with another cake – chocolate cake – which had her name it on written in sugar. Haha. It was such a nice moment… the singing and celebration. And later in the evening Dirk dropped by, but Marie wasn’t around, so I invited him to join in… making it even more like a party cos more people! (There were 10 in total).

"Happy Birthday" "Posters" and the bday girls
Above is Yvonne's ice cream cake (aka mudpie) with chocolate words
So anyway, we ate a lot of stuff! Mee Fen (aka Bee Hoon), sushi, pizza, nuggets, green bean soup, and of course the two cakes – I was so full after all the food. And we ended off with a bottle of champagne! We did a really loud “yum sheng”! Haha. (Of course I drank only a few sips. Heehee) And I concluded that my mini kitchen is amazingly equipped with sufficient plates, cups and utensils for 10 people!
champagne with all the mugs/glasses available in my kitchen... haha, looks so odd but cute right?
The whole gang... and all inside my room! It's cool to be able to have a sufficiently big room to have this party.
