Daddy's Surprise Party

my stepmum and i have been planning my dad's 55th for over a month now. we decided to have it at Sanook in Plaza Kelana Jaya. not many people know of it yet. it's still pretty new and quiet, but it's by a lake with al fresco dining so we thought it'd be perfect.

there were lots of old faces i remember from when i was about six years old and was still running around topless. i remember a certain Uncle Andy who conned me while we were on holiday in Cameron Highlands. i distinctly remember this.

"i'll give you RM10 if you can find a four-leaf clover."

so i thought, how hard could it be? i searched the whole garden over and was upset to find that i couldn't find a four-leaf clover. only much later did i find out that there is no such thing. kena con maximum.

it was a small, intimate party of family and very close friends. the bottles of wine disappeared really quickly! but everyone looked happy which made it a good night.


the look of surprise - priceless




time to make a wish - retirement, perhaps?
