A day in my lawful life...: Pics from TQ Party and AK's surprise bash!

Thank You Party - Basically a party to thank everyone who was involved in Malaysian Night...

I had a hand in preparing the food... And I have to say I literally nearly had a finger in preparing the wantan. Lol. We had 200 over pieces of chicken and roasted most of them in the afternoon for the the party. It was quite an experience.. frying wantan/mini-popiah, marinating+roasting chicken and frying keropok.

It was Julie's idea to get a cake for Julian, one of our comm. members.. whose birthday was the next day. Boy, was he surprised!

Gllloorrrious foooodd!!

Who said Malaysians don't line up??

Boy, don't they look surprised!

Surprise! Happy Birthday Julian!!

Yeah.. you can really see that I really enjoyed taking this pic. Lol.

There's nothing up my sleeves!! I swear!!

Me and Julie... Mm.. my hair looks funny from this angle..

On this bus back.. we got a lil photogenic..

Aik Kuang Surprise Bash!

That weekend.. we had another opportunity to gorge ourselves silly with Malaysian Food! (Hey.. to those back home.. this is a big thing ok??! Even here.. we still live to eat! Lol.)

Yet again.. Julie's idea. We were to lure Aik Kuang over to Rutland dining hall to surprise him for his 21st Birthday. I got into lots of trouble for this actually... I told the dining hall manager that we were having a party but he thought we were just having a party. As such, when everyone arrived with the food and stuff they weren't too happy and the porter told me I should I have gotten permission from the office for it. But he was quite nice about it and let us carry on as long as we cleaned up the place well.

A bit later though.. the Hall's Warden himself wanted to talk to me and boy, he wasn't too happy. The conversation went something like this. *read all the wardens' line with a harsh tone*

Warden: Are you the young man in charge of this affair?
Me: Yes, sir.
Warden: Did you know you need permission from the office?
Me: Yes, sir. There was a slight miscommunaction.. etc..
Warden: Ok. We don't allow food not being served by our own staff being served here. If anything were to happen, YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE. And those deco you're hanging on the lights, if anything gets damaged, YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE.
Me: Yes, sir.
Warden: Ok, and make sure you don't play the music too loud and I want you all out by 10. I'll send the senior hall tutor down.

*Sigh* He's not the first warden I crossed path with in my time here.. I had to confront the hard-assed Cripps Hall Warden to get my bike back. Ah well... I guess in my future career in law, I've got to face lots of these sorts of characters. You know.. the hard-assed, grumpy sort. Ahh...Chalk it all down to experience.

Here, I have to note that because of Aik Kuang's Surprise (as you probably know now.. I surprised the Hall Management too!! Wahey!) Party.. Somehow, one of my hallmates couldnt have her own birthday gathering in the hall's dining hall on Wednesday.. I felt immensely guilty for that and tried to help her out and suggested to have it somewhere else. The next day, it was good to hear that they managed to cope although they only had 2 hours to relocate their party. Nevertheless, I'm still really sorry I burst your bubble, guys.

Errrr.... BACK to the party! It went well... We played some twister and this game.. Suck-a-card-and-pass-it-around or Dare (go figure!) where I did something I'm not very proud of. (I'm a bad sucker so..) Lol. Well, I can safely say that two certain individuals of the same gender can say the same! Sorry, inside joke. Don't worry, guys.. we'll have that pic circulating around uni in no time!! Muahahahahahahah!

Unfortunately, it wasn't as much as a surprise as it was for Aik Kuang as it was for Rutland Hall management. Our caterer let the cat out of the bag while chatting Aik Kuang.. Argh.. still good times we had.
