Birthdays usually aren't very special days for me. Even though I like to remind people about my birthday, sadly the truth is I usually do not have any plans on the day itself. But for this year I will say that it's one of the more special and memorable birthdays for me, much thanks to the greenies. The day started off with Peskan Sukan, the most important and major archery competition I had. Somehow, compared to other major competitions like Sembawang, SAFRA and NUS, this competition felt more relaxed for me.Probably my first time shooting a 30m/50m competition which I have to admit I wasn't prepared for it and there was absolutely no chance of winning, so it's sort of presure-less. So I just did my best under the bad weather and finger tab condition and underperformed as usual. Seems like I have no pride on that day and I did not feel bad or sad at all despite the poor results unlike previous competitions. It just wasn't a day to be sad and disappointed about the competition but nevertheless I was quite disappointed with something else...
So after the competition I chiong home to have a mini celebration with my parents, just a simple cake cutting. As for my wish, it's a secret....
Finally went to met up with the greenies at Timbre, our usual drinking place. As the birthday boy, I was naturally the target but got to say they were quite gentle with the drinks. Despite the fact that they added vodka shots into my beer while I went to the gents, the effects wasn't felt.
A special birthday cake by them too which was actually a box of donuts. Quite creative and smart of them too as it saves the trouble of cutting and distributing the cakes.
The most memorable part of the night was went the band was asking people up the stage and of course I was once again sabo-ed up the stage. And I managed to get Bin up as well to make a fool of ourselves and there was another random guy sabo-ed by his peers as well. Basically we just stood there and move a bit as the band sang "Pump It" Afterwards we were asked to dance with the mic stand (i.e. pole dance) in front of the full Timbre crowd which was so OMG!! Got to be sporting so I just did a normal one but Bin was more creative as her understanding of pole dance was the pole dancing around the human. That totally terrorised the band.
Once again thanks to all who remembered my birthday and your well wishes. And hopefully this will indeed be a good and memorable year for me.
