Terri, Christian and I had a late dinner (no thanks to my delay) at Ducking Jaya One and we were more than satisfied to fill up with a good meal. Once done, we strolled around the newly established "Biz-Leisure District" watching folks of all walks oohing and ahhing in chorus awaiting the countdown. Many were seated at the courtyard enjoying an evening of live music while gulping down pints of beer from the nearby Belgian Beer House or casually loittering around awaiting the countdown. Out of the blue, Terri and I decided to head to the good 'ol Waikiki Bar to party the night.
Upon arriving there, we were greeted by an expectedly loud and party crowd. We wriggled our way through to Tony Siew's table and nestled there. Christian was in an awe watching people of various sizes and colours busy being party-goers. The decibels increased as the minutes to the dawn of the new year decreased and the delirium didn't bother Christian as he was just too engrossed with two party packs that he was clutching tightly to while two well lit whistles hung around his neck.
As the clock struck midnight, the entire wooden shacked bar erupted with whistles, wishes and hugs while I grabbed my wife and wished her with a kiss. Our son was not dismayed at all but chose to hold tightly to his whistles and party packs! As time passed on, the club was blanketing with smog of nicotine and we realised that it was best for Christian to leave and he a fact that he was tired too.
It was a good night, nothing spectacular but certainly left a great feeling of ending the year and starting it with people that you love and cherish the most.
Happy New Year and Happy 3rd Anniversary, my beloved Terri.
