2nd November 2007.
With four big candles on the cake, it wasn't that difficult for Abang Idin, Abang Hafiz and 'Abang Ameer' to guess how old & wise ayah had become that day!
Yes, Ayah turned 40 on Friday. It's a big thing isn't it? Turning 40!!
Yes, Ayah turned 40 on Friday. It's a big thing isn't it? Turning 40!!
My friends & I, we planned to have a bash for Ayah for his Big 4 Candles birthday. Why? Simply because he's the first to turn 40 amongst us. We could all imagine how it is going to be.
THE VISION & SCENARIO PLANNING
Venue: Somewhere exclusive, preferably a hilltop bungalow, overlooking a big garden with butterflies & bees ( that don't sting ). Flora & fauna style - get the drift?. All this privately reserved just for us all - a small bunch of noisy yet pleasantly insane people.Menu: Sumptious buffet spread served hot & ready to eat. Oh! Throw in the Seafood BBQ too. Butlers & Waiters/waitresses at our commands to bring this & that, replenish those & these. No alcoholic drinks. Teh tarik a must!
Kids: Included, running around chasing each other at the garden outside.
Mommies: Gossiping about nothing & updating each other about latest sales in town. (Take note mommies won't be exchanging recipes. Hahaha.... )
Daddies: Chatting about football & exchanging notes on the latest PDAs/Blackberries.
Entertainment: Oh yes! We ( the mommies) thought it would be a blast if we could invite Annuar Zain or M. Nasir - say, to sing LIVE a few good songs. ( I'm sure the daddies would probably prefer Maya Karin ... regardless of whether she can sing or not).
In short, plenty of good food, fun & laughter with great company.
THE REALITY
Errr...So, who, do what, by when, how much?
That is exactly the problem. We don't have an executor amongst us for this sort of big party thing. Neither do we have the fulus to engage an event organiser. Nor do we think it's wise to part with our fulus, the little that we have, just to have Annuar Zain or M. Nasir or both (or Maya..... sissshh! ) entertaining us privately.
But hey! It's a good idea right? IT'S A GREAT IDEA !!!! hehe...
We are not giving up just yet. It may happen. Just wait.

Hello Ibu,
Sorry, terlupa la pulak to wish Saba at A's house just now. So, here goes -
"Happy 40th Birthday, Saba!!!"
It's just a number - albeit a BIG one! Hahaha!
Date blocked. Now - have to shop for baju lip lap... ;D
Hi Ibu,
Happy Birthday to Ayah! Hehe...
They say men get born again at 40...Bet you he feels like a child again! Sometimes so unfair (to the women)...;)
lahai...pesal la besday boy in half birthday suit?
hahahaha...
Happy Birthday.....
Life begins at 40...... not(wifeys would say)... hehe
Happy Besday... 40 tahun.... gileerrrrrrrrrrrrr... kalau ye pon, pakai le baju dulu... tak senonoh sungguh kawan aku sorang ni!
Life begins at 40? Yep, been there. Indeed. But kena rephrase sikit ayat tu... Life begins to show at 40! (ber-adoi sini, ber-adoi sana...)
Shana,
It's good that we got together that day. At least "the plan" is seeing a bit of progress. I thot someone is supposed to sms me to remind me to book the place. Guess what? No reminder so far.... Hahaha.... Jgn esok dah siap baju lip lap, lip lap, all dressed up with no place to go!
Hi Daphne,
This Ayah has long thought that he was already 40, haha! Funny eh! But regardless, he's keeping up with (if not leading) the boys very well with all the computer games, PS2/3/X box, etc... Sigh.... No one to play Barbie with Ibu :( ( yet!)
KC,
Tu ler uniform dia every nite. Hahaha...
Helena,
And I would add ... yeah, begins "to deteriorate" at 40. Hehehe...
Ayah,
Dia kata senang sikit. Berangin. And saves time. Hishhh....
There was once when I asked one of the boys to put on their pyjamas and he responded, "Tu Ayah tu, kenapa tak pakai baju?". Alamak!
Kak Pi,
Tidak syak lagi! That day he was complaining about his glasses, pening la, maybe 'power' dah bertambah la..pot pet, pot pet. I responded, "entah-entah dah kena pakai bi-focal tak?". Member terus diam. hehehe...
Kata orang for man "Life Begins at 40" So happy starting your life man.
Happy belated Birthday Saba!
wahhhhhh a new number (4) in ur birthday... which makes u the most wisest in the family (though still physically kecik ... so comel alongside *ibu*...)
i am sure he appreciated what u did for his birthday...minus the anuar zaim :0) u gave him 3 heroes... thatz enough birthday gift to last his lifetime..
Hi Ibu,
In that case, here's wishing you have someone to play Barbie with sometime soon ;)
Come to think of it, sudah tua macam ini pun, I still love Barbies, Bratz (Dolls, Ponies and Dolls in general!
Shhh...Don't tell!
