Sleepy just returned from KaiYe's birthday celebration a while ago which was really interesting. It was kinda like a grassroots events but yet not really if u get wat i mean heh. :P V thankful to Dar for accompanying me there although he was sooooooooooooooo v tired :)
The celebrations was held @ the Geylang United Football Club in Bedok of which Kaiye is a member. (incidentally that building used to be a theatre. i didn't realise until Dar pointed out the big screen to me!!!) When we passed by on our way to park the car, I noticed a group of pp @ the door and I thot that they were Kaiye's invitees, but they were not; they were pp looking at football on the screen or something hee hee. Was v v v surprised to see Kaiye coz he was dressed in suit and bowtie; was the 1st time I saw him like dat heh. Dar was also v surprised to see him dressed dat way. And Dar is so cute, he passed the wine we bought for kaiye and then he spoke to Kaiye in chinese which had me telling Dar that Kaiye's chinese sux and Kaiye reiterated in a string of broken chinese haha!! Anyways as Kaiye is turning (or has turned) 60, the theme of the party was "Swinging 60s". Q cute rites, i mean who would imagine a 60 year old guy having a bday celebration w a theme and asking everyone to dress like the 60s!!! Well most of the grassroots didnt but kaiye's daughters n her frens/cousins did so it was q interesting.
There was also a live band there... ok not really lah, juz a keyboardist/guitarist w 2 singers. They sang mostly oldies which the crowd q enjoyed. And to our surprise, Kaiye's daughters organised some games for the guests!!! It was q hilarious. Of course we didn't join in but we watched them playing the game and had a really gd laugh!!! There was this game where the groups were given a piece of paper and they are supposed to cut a hole such that a person can go through the paper. And in 1 group there was this really skinny guy who was the model and who had to "squirm" his way through the paper. It had everyone laughing their heads off. The next game was also v funny; the groups had to do a relay w a safetypin held between the player's knees. Watching some of the players hop or trying to walk to the other side really tickled us to the bones!!! And after the games, whilst the 2nd group of singers sang, the guests took to the dance floor. Pity I left before Kaiye made his moves... i m sure i wld haf had a gd luff :P
It was great to see these much older folks (compared to me lah!) enjoying themselves tremendously. I would never have thought that there would be games and dancing as well. It seems that the older pp are getting younger @ heart whilst the supposed young pp r getting more drained and tires easily... how now brown cow? :P To be surrounded by his friends and loved ones in this celebration, I am sure Kaiye had a great time. I wonder who will be celebrating my 60th birthday w me?!?!? :P
PS: Bro Bear, in ans to your comment, my life has not been v interesting of late and I was told that pp have grown tired of my complaints :P
