Yes.. I have been MIA for a few days.. weeks... now. The past three weeks are a complete blur to me. I have been so busy that it feels like it has been one day that has stretched over three weeks. Busy with what you ask? Well, busy with uni, dancing work and parties. Especially my party.
The day finally arrived where all my stress, tiredness and organisation was worth it. hehe. Decked down in all blue from my hairpiece, my tiara, my earrings, my necklace, my eye shadow, my dress, my bracelets, my nailpolish and my shoes, I was the happiest girl that night. Surrounded by blue balloons, friends and family in blue, a blue cake... I couldn't have asked for anything more. It was an amazing night with lots of surprises and fantastic speeches.
Got to the bar around 7ish. Set up my photos and the balloons with the help of Tina, Charlene, Dave and Mel. Thanks guys for coming early to help! People starting arriving around 7:30pm. By 9oclock, most people had arrived and I was stressed. There were so many people that I didn't know who to socialize with. I would talk to people for like 10seconds and then have to go off to socialize with someone else. People wanted to take photos with me but I was so busy that I kept forgetting to take one with them. I think I got photos with most people on the night. Sorry to those I didn't get to take a photo with! Everyone looked amazing that night. Thanks to all who stuck with my colour theme! BLUE! haha. You guys did a good job with finding blue things to wear. hehe.
Thank you all for doing my speeches.
- Thank you to Mikey for your song parody... but no thanks to you for showing those pictures of Mel and I! >.< lolz.
- Thanks to Mel and Bud... I thought you guys did a fantastic job! Especially you Bud, knowing that you didn't really want to do one in the first place! It meant a lot to me that you did one in the end... so thank you...
- Thank you to Tina, Darren and Sharon. haha. It was a very interesting way of doing my speech. I loved it! And everyone told me how much they enjoyed it.
- Thank you to Kelvin and Jojo... haha... didn't even know you were giving me a speech! But it was even more special to find out that you were and that you put so much effort into it to make it a poem!
Darren's part of the speech included advertising my mobile number to text 'flirt' to... and yes, it was a joke. But by the end of the night, I had 30 messages on my phone from people who were at my party! haha. Thanks for that guys! You used up all the space in my inbox! haha
Thank you to everyone who gave me wonderful pressies. I loved them all! I got heaps of nice things. From bags, to jewellery, to teddy bears, to flowers, to blankets, to clothes, to frames... and the list goes on.
Even though I loved them all and appreciate your gifts, there are a few presents that really touched my heart. Thanks to:
- the gurls for their t-shirt, I've worn it already! hehe
- the guys for the framed calander, that was a beautiful surprise! I was so not expecting that! I cried when I read your messages.
- Mel... omg... your present was amazing... I cried when I saw it and then when I read your message I cried even more! lolz. Your present means the world to me! Thanks a million!
- Bud... your present was much appreciated... and yummy! hehe...
- my brother's bouquet of doggies! hehe. Very very sweet and cute!
Reciving presents that require much time and effort means more to me than if you bought me something with a million dollars. You can buy so many things with money, but when it comes from the heart, that's irreplaceable. But thank you to all who made my 21st something that I can always remember with your presents. Your friendships mean so much! *hugglez*
Overall I was pretty happy with the night... though I wasn't too happy about the music because they told me that I wasn't allowed to bring my CD's to play but then when Vihn brought his music, we were allowed to play it! so what was with that?! grrr... not happy about that. And then the whole drink card thing... bleh.. never again... was so confusing and the bar lady was not helpful. Anyways, hope you guys enjoyed yourself. Thank you for celebrating my 21st with me. I had a blast!
... oh and btw, can you guys PLEASE send me photos from the night. I would really really appreciate that!!! THANK YOU!!!

My beautiful and very delicious cake!
