Combined Birthday Celebration (Gab & Ferdi)
To ‘commemorate’ the birthday celebrations of all the Ipoh October babies in SG, we set a date on the 30th Oct for a mass celebration. The celebration is for myself, Ferdinand Peter and Pinkie. But Pinkie couldn’t join us as she has some family matters to attend to back in KL..
Anyway, our celebration started of with a small group of 8 for dinner (plus Bishan who joined after dinner) in Bugis Junction where we ate at NYDC.
We ate a variety of different western food such as lamb stew, chicken chop, baked pasta, spaghetti, sandwich and pizza. I ordered a sandwich served with German sausage in between. This is the ‘appetizer’ to the main event – we headed for Karaoke at kSuite @ Iluma, the new shopping mall next to Bugis Street. There was an addition of 6 more people. It feels like hanging out in Ipoh again where out of 15 of us, only 3 are non-Ipoh and that’s because they are the plus ones. It was thanks to Susan who managed to get us a free room with no rates but provided we ordered alcohol/open bottle at our ‘party’.
KSuite is one of the better karaokes I’ve been to. The room is quite big with 4 mics and two screens. The song selection screen is a stand-touch-screen-panel and is quite user friendly. There is also a mini-room with a computer inside where you can surf the net and play many pre-installed games. Can even facebook there…
We started singing from 11pm and lasted all the way until 4am. haha.. We had a ‘karaoke rehearsal session’ in the house a few nights before using youtube. We even printed out cheat sheets aka ‘pinyin lyrics’ for some chinese songs cause most of us can’t read mandarin. The session was fun and many went crazy as you can see from the video below.
We had a good time of dancing, singing… We even dance the Wondergirls – Nobody song… And did some impromptu ‘yam seng’ when there was a very long draggy note in the song….
Halfway through, they brought out the birthday cakes to celebrate me and Ferdi’s birthday.
All of us had a great time there.. Thanks for organizing and planning it!
