On my birthday...
29 Sept 2009, is my actual 21st birthday. I woke up just to take a cab to go for coy cohesion at
SDBA. My platoon boat came in 3rd in some coy Dragon Boat competition. Being 3rd is mediocre and good, as we did not get a day off and more importantly, we aren't the luggage party.
As a birthday boy, I expected to get wet. Low and behold, I'm the target man, and those around me suffered too. Sorry my neighbours. We went to eat beef
hor fan and tau
hui at
Geylang later, where PC treated us with lime juice.
When the night falls, my core team met me at my house area and we had
Pastamania for dinner at
hougang mall. Soon after the meal, three of them disappeared and abandoned me, saying there are some surprises for me, so i waited lonely at the eatery.
Joel then brought me to the 13
th storey of
blk 461 (where I recalled my ex-shepherd gave me a visual illustration to encourage me to win my former school--
hihs then). When i looked down, I saw "HAPPY 21ST" clearly spelled out with candle lights. It was such a touching sight. I mean, I wonder who will create such a wonderful surprise for me! And that's not all! They gave me a really LARGE black card, with our cg members scribbled all over the edges, PLUS there is a "pop-up" of Luke's figure, wearing a cross embedded t-shirt; scoring a goal! On top of it all, I was given a self-baked chocolaty cake named "Death over Chocolate", which is my 1st love too!
It was an awesome display of
hardwork, appreciation, and delicate love! Darryl included all my desires--Christ, buddies, soccer and chocolate! I mean, who actually bother to be so meticulous, unless he is keen and sincere in seeing a wide smile from me!? Thank God for you, Joel, Darryl and
Wenwei! It is great to know and serve alongside with marvellous brothers like you all!
Even my family love the wonderfully made chocolate mousse!
Let's win the camps toge!
