Happy 27th Birthday!

“More, has been found out, and I must warn you fairly that a reckoning is due” – The Strange Case of Charles Dexter Ward, H.P. Lovecraft

birthday

I had my 27th birthday at RH Hotel. Joyce had helped me in reserving a table for the Great Weekend Buffet at Oriental Bistro.

This weekend’s spread had an Italian theme:

buffet

Mixed Vegetable with Garlic Butter
Sausage with Onion
Prawn Skewer
Potato Au Gratin
Baked Spicy Fish
Lamb with Rosemary Sauce
Oat Meat Chicken
Beef Goulash
Aglio Olio
Spaghetti
Chicken Broth Soup

…as well as local and Oriental fare like mee mamak and Teochew Duck.

squid

There was also squid in nice cocktail glasses…

stuff

…and small saucers with hors d’ oeuvres.

cake

They also kindly brought a cake, which is pretty useful, considering I neglected to furnish one. πŸ˜‰ I’m not sure about the customs regarding birthdays and cakes actually. Does the host provide the cake? Or the guests? Food for thought…

cutting cake

The drawing of the three…

dinner

L-R: Faye, Huai Bin (me), Katherine, Chiew Keing, Colin, Joyce, Amy

lounge

Four of us also headed over to Hijau Lounge

cocktail

…for a bit of an after party.

samsara

There was a live band called Samsara playing at the venue, belting out titles like Sweet Child of Mine, I Will Survive and other miscellaneous covers.

cell

L-R: Chiew Keing, Katherine, Huai Bin (me), Faye

I had a lot of cocktails and several bottles of wine (in addition to the bottles of red and white wine during dinner) and I must admit, I felt a tinge of regret when I woke up the next day. πŸ˜‰

flowers

It was also the first time in my life that I was on the receiving end of a bouquet of flowers. This was delivered to my workplace on Saturday morning, and it caused quite a commotion and more than a few jokes. πŸ™‚

card

Faye had given me a card with RM 400 in RM 100 dollar notes folded into hearts pasted on the inside. I promptly accused her of not trying hard enough to think of a present to get me. πŸ˜‰

present

Joyce, Colin, Katherine, Chiew Keing, and Amy got this bottle of Osana BiOmega Omega-3 capsules which would probably do my poor liver and kidneys a whole world of good.

happy birthday

Happy 27th Birthday!

  1. Ah! what can i say?
    Good to see you morphing into a nice well adjusted 27yo. Aw shucks, how sweet.
    Really am glad for you, but at the same time, cannot but help missing the sixthseal of old, you know, the one who’s supposed to lead us in the ways of man.
    Well, 1 man’s gain…..
    Maybe a review of the sex romps will spice up the blog, afterall they say sex can be an addiction too……. How? Over to you

  2. zeroize: hmm…i am actually itching for a new tattoo but i got to head to kuching (at least) for one since there aren’t any good tattoo places here. am thinking of going to bali or bangkok, could get one there. πŸ™‚
    ez: well, i feel healthy too. πŸ™‚
    willchua: i have never gotten those before until these year. money origami, yes, but not in cards. i think folding RM 10 dollar notes into hearts was quite the in thing to do in high school, i got a couple of those.
    the RM 100 version is probably the supersized edition. πŸ˜‰
    dr zhivagone: thanks! i don’t know about the well adjusted part though and today someone just commented on the well publicized relapse rates (heresy! i haven’t relapsed for a long time) and i guess the specter of drug use will always haunt my past, but hey…
    anyway, i will think about making some posts for a friend *cough* when the time is right. it’s not the right time now considering the changes that i’m going through.
    i’m glad you liked the old sixthseal.com and i’m sorry that i can’t continue to make posts in the same vein due to the situation i’m in right now.
    sex eh…am a little bit hesitant to do that but perhaps i’ll do one and see how it floats this weekend. πŸ˜‰
    Horse: thanks! much appreciated…

  27. More and more and more people grip preconditioned notion that MLM is a rip-off ever since they or a person they know has hit a brick wall at building an multi level marketing organization before. Nothing is new with that. 95% of businesses fail within their very initial 5 years and 5% fall short of their initial 10 years. That is a Government data and yes it has absolutely nothing to carry out with MLM. Does that imply you should not give yourself a chance of the American wish via freely available enterprise?

  28. The second , is to correctly practice your leads. Your qualified prospects have need of coaching and motivation to pursue the ultimate objective for the business. If you are the kind of leader, that simply sign persons up and leave their particular needs for themselves, they should quit on you sooner if not later.

  32. Many businesses had various types of targeted multi level marketing leads, including company specific, live tv leads, city leads, gender specific, product specific, community code specific, amongst others. Targeted mlm prospects are the favorite of the Networkers I talked to, as it provides people a more targeted lead, and a much more targeted impact.

  33. The firth to building your MLM business is to invariably current your self professionally. Do not pressure, force, intimidate, lie, exaggerate to people about your MLM business and success. The quickest way to produce a name for yourself, is to develop a nasty reputation.

  35. PlayStation Phone – No internal memory? That seems kind of weird since I doubt this thing will use UMD. Also, isn’t the PSP2 coming out next year? Will they make a PSP Phone 2? I’m kind of skeptical on this one. well, i can’t edit…but i wanted to add this. i wont be surprised if sony adds some type of adapter add on to the PS3 (something to support the IR blasters, and maybe a small unit within that add on that has more RAM) so it can support google tv. It would make so much sense for sony to be even more of a presence in the living room, other than what the ps3 can already do. If google tv ends up working out all the kinks, and getting better…i wouldn’t be surprised. On top of that being a selling point (a huge one) over the Wii and similar to the Xbox integration w/ att uverse, you’d be able to get the PSP phone and the ps3 to work all buddy buddy together. the possibilities are endless if you ask me. This would be called product synergy sony…listen to me
