All's well that ends well. That's the conclusion of the party I organized for my friend's 82 Birthday today.
The party was scheduled from 11:30 till 17:30. On my way to the karaoke venue, I collected a bag of ballons from the Wheatland Care Center at 11:15 with a hope to create a colorful BD atmosphere.
The BD star didn't arrive when all the dishes were served at a quarter to 12. While worrying about somebody might not show up, I announced the begining of the luncheon before the delicious food got cold.
I paid the total expenditure of NT$4,000 when all the dishes were served. The BD star finally arrived, but no sight of her younger sister. I told the BD star that we two shared the charge of her younger sister. I was a little sad that the rest five people didn't show much appreciation. I guess I was probably a little unhappy that I didn't sing much.
Fortunately the BD star's younger sister finally arrived at half past one. She told us that she thought that the BD party will take place tomorrow. At least I felt a little happier that I could collect some money from the late arrival.
Four remained after another four left early at 3 o'clock to a Mahjong game. I sang, danced, and chatted a lot. It turned out to be a great BD party in the end. I felt grateful from the bottom of my heart. Life is indeed full of surprises. All's well that ends well.
