The kid's party

Celebrating kid’s birthday on a fine afternoon with another bunch of school kids was an ultimate exhaustion for me. I was in charge to be one of the cook for that day and I started my shift early that morning.

My specialty is Mee Singapore! Well, don’t ask me where the dish got its name but I learned to cook it from my aunt years ago. My lovely cousin requested the dish to be served at the kid’s birthday (besides some western food like Olio Pasta, Macaroni, Potato Salad, Mushroom Soup and some finger food made by my cousins), so I got no objection but to get everything prepared. Erm, I might say that it was my cousin who prepared the ingredients. I just walked into the kitchen and started cooking. Fuh, senang keje!

Okay, so the kids came over and started playing games, hu hah hu hah, eat food, hu hah hu hah, sing birthday song, eat birthday cake – yam ice cream cake, hu hah hu hah, hit the piñata, hu hah hu hah, and the party went on and on.

The night before, when we were in living room watching telly, there was an ad on Galaxy Tab. 

The kid suddenly voiced out, “You haven’t buy me any gift right? Err… a Galaxy Tab will do!”

“Are you crazy, kid? I don’t have one and you want one???”

Okay, kids nowadays are too high tech with all these gadgets and they are exposed to machines world too soon. Yeah, compare to our time, this is too impossible to just dream about it. But anyway, of course I didn’t get her that tab. Something suits her age – which is 10 – was all I can think of, yeah, a sling bag. Actually I thought of getting her some books but she might not get excited about it since we went to Big Bad Wolf Sale a couple of weeks ago. So, nah.

It’s fun to celebrate birthdays when we are kids right?! Excitement of getting party packs, playing games, birthday cakes – are tremendous! Okay, I’ll definitely organize birthday parties for my kids later. Let them have all the fun they want. In fact, you can be kids only once! Errr....right?
