At this point of doing this, I've just bathed after coming back from celebrating Gnet's 21st birthday party. The party was splendid and everyone got themselves messy with the cake, eggs, flour even the drinks! Conee was the mastermind of everything. This time around the chosen venue was the multipurpose court at Zaba residential college. Initially, the chosen venue was Tasik Cempaka - a place outside of UKM - but since the party was to be held at midnight, it would be unsafe if we have the celebration there especially after the bad incident encountered by a friend of us. Everything was planned carefully - from preparing a video till the "kidnapping" of the birthday girl. The video was actually meant for giving Gnet the instruction of the game. There were several cue cards prepared prior to the party. She had to adhere to the instructions in that particular video and supposedly go all over the allocated places to collect all the cue cards. Unfortunately, there was a technical problem in which she couldn't get access to internet thus hindered her from viewing the uploaded video. However, the whole plan was not affected by that. We then went to plan B.

Since the video thingy was not working, we blindfolded the birthday girl with a scarf and drove her to the so-called secret place. Upon arriving at the place I could see candles in the formation of "21st". It was really beautiful. Then a few others escorted her to the middle of the court - still blindfolded. Next, the scarf was taken off and ta-da! She was surrounded by us and the cake was placed in front of her with all the candles. As usual, we sang the birthday song accompanied by the guitar played by Nicholas. After the singing and blowing the candles, then came the most awaited part of the night - giving the birthday girl the "special birthday gift". Eggs was broken off on top of her head and the slimy yolks smeared her face. The fun didn't end there. After she got herself smeared with the slimy yolks then came the flour which was scattered all over her body. Talking about the combination of egg yolks and flour - perfect! Ah yes! The cake as well. :)

Nevertheless, not only the birthday girl "suffered" from it, the others including me also got filthy and smelly. It was extremely fun playing "bubut-bubut" (a Sabahan term for the game of chasing one another) with them. Making ourselves looked extremely filthy was hilarious and it reminded me of my childhood time. It seemed like a reminiscence of ourselves when we were far younger. Before heading back to our respective residential college, we did the cleaning and not forgetting said a prayer which was dedicated for the special person of the night. I will try to upload some pictures taken by others in the coming post as soon as I got those pictures from them.

p/s: Happy 21st Birthday Gnet! May God's abundance blessing will always be with you. Hope you enjoyed the let's-get-filthy birthday party of yours! :)
