Simba's FIrst Birthday



The 1st Birthday of Simba, the World's Best Dog
Simba was born on the 1st of October 2005.

Thats as true as the shop assistant claims so. Prob a good estimate as we bought her when she was 3 months old in December 2005.

Everyone said it was a crazy idea but were drawn to the party with keen interest. Simba was blessed with a bombardment of wonderful gifts. From a 'punching bag' toy, newspaper roll, brownies to yummy snacks from her uncles and aunties (Thank you everyone). She may not know that it was her birthday but prob knew it was her lucky day as the presents and delicious snacks flowed in like champange on a pyramid of glasses.

Her dinner started with lamb balls as appetizers, main course was a delicious chicken pie and dinner was finished off with a slice of her birthday cake. We felt her tummy after she consumed all that, it was as hard as rock. Im not looking forward to her disposals this morning though.

Her birthday song was the funniest thing of the night. Everyone started singing the first two lines loudly but slowly as people realised they were singing to a dog, less and less voices could be heard. That was then I realised that everyone who came really actually came as they loved Lin and me and our peculiar interests. As a normal person would think a birthday party for a dog is a weird idea. Therefore, our conclusion is that firstly, our friends love and care for us a lot to do silly things for us. (Cross-reference to wearing green on our wedding day). Secondly, people will find any reason to gather for a good time. Thirdly, I do believe that everyone has a place for this wonderful dog in their hearts (ok maybe not all).

All in all, it was a good time for catching up for everyone, from tennistical Anthoony to tai tai aka shophouser elaine. It was a fantastic time for a dog brought into this world approximately one year ago. I wonder who would be looking forward to next year more? The humans or the human-like dog.

cheers
