A thank you note for those that turned up for my 26th birthday!

I would like to extend my thanks to all that turned up that day! I do feel a little embarrassed that I actually staged such a big birthday bash for myself at this age. But frankly, this party wasn't exactly planned for. It was just supposed to be a mini BBQ by East Coast Park before it escalated to what it is when I decided that getting a chalet would be a better idea. Amazingly and by God's will, I managed to get one chalet at Costa Sands Sentosa just 1 day before the event!

For those that ate and didn't realize, I actually made use of the opportunity to experiment some new creations and some Japanese Kushiyaki during the BBQ. I hope you guys loved the food and didn't get a diarrhea! I guess it won't be long before I can finally open my dream small little cafe and sell these creations to you lol! My apologies to those that I didn't invite because it was kind of a last minute thing, I promise to make it up to you another time one way or another!

There were some that was of great help to me during the event and here are the special mentions!

1) Thanks to Puss for starting off the organization of the event and creating the event and invites on Facebook. Thank you also for helping out with the preparation of the BBQ and for the hard work in front of the BBQ pit. Oh and don't FBB all the time!

2) Special mentions also to Valencia for helping out with the preparation of the BBQ and accompanying me with the buying of the food. Although you did nagged a lot and made a lot of comments throughout the trip, you were of great help!

3) Special thanks to Sis, Kok Pin and family for lending me your kitchen and fridge, marinating my chicken fillets bringing the stuff over to the chalet for me!

4) Thanks to Weijian and Henry for concentrating on your soccer at St James Tiger Live, leaving the really tired and high me outside alone sleeping by the curb lol.

5) Thanks to my Marist brothers for forcing me to go for that night swim. At least you all were considerate enough to ensure I had nothing in my pockets before I went down. I would be so damn super pissed and sad if my new phone went in with me lol. Oh and Henry you owe me a button.

6) Thanks to Ah Kor for pointing out to me all the necessary items that I missed out in preparation for the BBQ and buying the prawns!

7) Thanks to Meiwen and Linus for getting me all those stuff at the very last minute! Really sorry for the trouble, making you guys run here and there. I should have troubled Sham instead! lol

8) Thanks also to Alvin, Sagah, William and Poh Fong for bring over the Mahjong set plus table and keeping me entertained on Friday night!

10) Oh and thanks Jack for starting the BBQ fire and being constantly in front of the BBQ pits cooking for everyone else to eat.

11) Last but not least, thank you to Nick Senior for making the effort to come down all the way even though he had a field day at work. Really appreciate that.

I realized that this note is getting a little too long for any comfort reading. Thank you all again for celebrating my birthday with me, all your presents and all that you've done! I'm turning 26!!!!

Love,
Nick
