My friends told me I am a great event organiser. Great is it because it's a job that everyone loathes and I happen to love it? Or because I really am good at it, I wonder.
I think anything you performed over a hundred times - you are bound to be good at it. Practice makes perfect they say.
So I have this friend whom I have been organising her birthday parties for the last three years. From guest invitation, taking care of RSVPs, to the logistics and the nitty gritty stuff like how many candles should be placed on the cake!
In 2010 - the year she had her first daughter borned, she requested the birthday party to be a get-away from the baby talks and nappies, strictly "adults only". Absolutely fine with me and I remembered we had a fun time apart from some who went panicking because they parted with their kids for 2 hours!
In 2011 - a year that was symbolic of mini baby boom among my circle of friends and so we decided to add a line in the invitation that said "We love your kids, bring them with you." The party went pretty well, apart from the fact that I didn't know kids all love blowing candles and I didn't plan for that many to be blown!
In 2012 - I made sure I took things into perspective and I think what we are going for this year would be this:
