Crazy 22
Tuesday, January 18, 2005
What a birthday.. what a birthday.. This is definitely the craziest birthday I ever had in 22 years. So crazy I don't know whether to feel angry or happy.
The first stunt came when I returned back to hall after lessons (with Linian) only to find the whole hall spammed with posters of a hairy, "hot, sexy and virile" Chio.. of course the Happy Birthday Chio was there. In the initial moment of freaking out and paisehness I almost wanted to rip all the posters down.. but then again.. I suddenly thought.. MAF Brothers had struck! Haha.. so I decided to leave the posters alone and hurried to hide in my room.
And yes it was Tat's creation.. caught him with the incriminating evidence in Toad's room. Didn't dare to have dinner at first.. but Tat, Seng, Toad wanted me to.. and yes I entered the Comm Hall with absolute reluctance albeit cheers from the diners as I scooped my rice...
I knew there was more coming. No cake.
So amidst block supper I was put into a garbage can and dragged all the way to Block C level 8 to be ponded.. shampooed and whatever else happened next will remain a secret between the MAF Brothers. Haha.. though it was a traumatic experience.. everyone got their fair share of what I got.. bwahahaaha..
So that was all. I went back to block.. no food left. And made the terrible mistake of going to bathe.. thinking it was the end of the day.
It was an attack by the guys... again watever happened shall remain a modest secret and yes it was 10 times more traumatic than what happened in Block C. Guys can go crazy sometimes.. though I wonder what the thrill was in making me do all those things.. For a moment I thought.. hey it's my birthday.. why am I being tortured at your pleasure?
By a stroke of luck (and with my wonderful neighbour KayPing's help) I somehow turned the tables. At that moment it was Chio against the rest of the world. I stood my ground in insisting that I don't do what I don't want to. Standing firm helps.. and reaching a compromise and trying not to be that much of a spoilsport (being pissed as I was at that time though) I just completed what they wanted and got the key to my room.
Seeing the decorated room appeased me almost straightaway. And I was reminded that they were celebrating my birthday. Birthday songs, cut cake blah blah.. the traditional stuff. Well in whatever way it could be.. the motive was to initiate me into the 22nd year of my life.. And with so many seniors and juniors taking part in this.. and the fact that they had started planning quite long ago.. thanks so much for all the effort in making this day such such such a memorable one.
Went over to Chye's room for the cake cutting session (oh yes we didn't do it earlier...) and we removed all the posters before going to FongSeng for supper. Ah at peace again.
Topsy turvey.. ups and downs.. mixed emotions. Happy Birthday Chio.
