Someday I'll jump through puddles, take a stroll or run a race.
Someday I'll walk across the street, or maybe walk in space,
Someday I'll scale a mountain, or I'll join a ballet corps.
Someday I'll walk a tightrope, or explore the ocean floor.
Someday these feet will do some things that only heaven knows,
But for today they're happy just to wiggle all their toes.


Helo semua. Nama saya Hadi. Hari ini saya nak bercerita tentang sambutan hari jadi saya yang pertama. Maaflah wajah saya terbangak sikit masa ini. Saya sedikit mengantuk, biasalah, waktu lepas Maghrib begitu selalunya saya nap sekejap. Tiba-tiba terpaksa berparti pula.


This is when I finally found my mojo to party. Itu Nenda saya. Always the excited grandma, this one is. Oh ya, hobi baru saya ialah gigit belon sehingga pecah. You think I’d cry or terkejut? No, not me. I like it when the balloon finally meletup lepas usaha saya menggigit. I’m sadist like that.


That’s Mama. We, the hosts, were late for our own party. Klasik. Jemputan says from 8 and we arrived at 8.15. In the plastic bag were candies and chocolates, yang Mama gopoh-gapah hidang at the kids’ area. Nenda and Wan sedang susun cupcakes.


These are some of the sugary sweetness yang Mama hidangkan; marshmallows, gummy bears, Rocky sticks, lollypops. Wait till you see my sugar coated birthday cake. Mama says sorry to the parents of the kids, kalau-kalau ada yang jadi hyper akibat sugar rush.


Well Papa, I don’t quite like the tacky crown.


What the heck. Pakai sajalah. Here’s one of us 3, before the guests arrived.


Here’s one with Wan and Nenda. Just so you know, saya makan kepala katak itu right after that. Nobody told me that animal balloons are so yummy!


And here’s me with Mama, Tok Girl and my best friend, Pak Long.


Oh Papa and Mama hosted my party at Monsta CafĂ© in Nusa Bestari. They cater for any events, and their team also did the decoration. Cool eh? Mama cakap, definitely recommended. Do check out their Facebook page HERE, if you’re interested (iklan tak berbayar)


That’s my Mama, ever the bubbles-freak. As you can see, I couldn’t care less. But the older boy, Papa’s partner’s son, enjoyed main bubbles dengan Mama.


Mama with some friends; Aunty Elin, Aunty Amy and the one you can’t see her face is Aunty Fadhm, kawan Mama dari zaman STF. They look like they're discussing something juicy. Mama denied the allegation, by the way. But just look at her face!


I was trying to look like I don’t care about the pretty sweet thing beside me.


This is the cake I was telling you about. Moist chocolate cake, decorated with Kit Kat and whole load of M&M. Mama made this with love, dia kata. I believe her.


“Kenapa semua orang menjerit?” was what I was thinking at that moment. Didn’t realize it was my birthday party until that moment.


The happy people. Kak Mira and Abang Sadiq were in charge with the string-thingy and they obviously had fun. Abang Shafik sedang baca doa ketika ini.


And I obviously didn’t care about anything else but the M&M on the cake. I wanted them all. Oh Mama cakap, please excuse her double chin. Yikes.


Ini namanya clown. A friendly one, this clown is. Mama was a bit berdebar kalau saya takut dengan clown but Mama, I liked him. He had me at the very first balloon he gave me. Mama kata, kalau nak hire dia, recommended. Affordable. He provided entertainment, buat balloon sculptures, comedy magic show and interacted with the kids. Mama suruh go HERE for Jerry and Bean De Clownz Facebook page (lagi iklan tanpa bayaran).


“Look at my blue sword, Pak Long!” was what I was trying to tell Pak Long masa tu. One of the many sculptures the friendly clown made that night. My favourite was the one below:


Hahaha. Look at Tok Jah looking like a cute semut. Uncle Osman and Abang Haris too!


Comedy magic show time. It was funny. Although I could barely understand lawak, I laughed when everyone laughed and clapped when everyone clapped. I’m cute like that.


That Mama of mine obviously was enjoying the show. Gelakkan orang, suka betul.


Mama changed me after a bit of an accident. Alaaa, Mama kecoh. Pak Long bagi seketul M&M as a treat but me being messy me, telah mengotorkan keseluruhan white shirt that I wore earlier. Sorry Mama. Glad the chocolate stain dah hilang.


That’s my name, that’s my name!


Nearing the end of the party, saya dah lembik, almost collapsed sambil minum susu.


Oh by the way, Mama said, more pictures are HERE on her Facebook. Credit to Papa and Abang Shafik for the pictures, and to Mama for editing them until 2.30 in the morning. I had so much fun, Papa and Mama. Thank you for throwing me this party! Me love you both so much.

Now I’m gonna go continue playing with my many presents, me likey likey. XOXO!

Meriahnya Hadi's 1st birthday bash! I'm sure dia akan baca balik entry ni nanti pada masa hadapan dan akan berganda2 lagi sayang dia pada Mama & Papa dia :) P/S: Love your outfit! ;)

Ahsuez said...

Betul lah.

KALAU one day I'll be hosting a party, much convenient to have it anywhere except home. Tak penat mengemas, tak perlu berpeluh sediakan food and beverages. Penat pikir dan sediakan outfits je (macam biasa, mommy (I)mesti terlebih gaya!)

Marliza Radzi said...

Reena: Alaa segannya, sungguh biasa-biasa outfit saya. Hehehe.

Ahsuez: Oh penatnya kalau buat kat rumah! Unless ada maidlah. Kat kedai senang.

AyinEmran said...

Oh I love your ranting, Hadi (read: Mama Hadi)!

Daud kelihatan gagah je pegang Hadi sebelah tangan. Aku pegang Kasih sebelah tangan, esoknya mesti tangan sakit selama 2 hari.

Sukalah birthday party Hadi! Cupcakes dari mana?

Marliza Radzi said...

Aku selalu je pegang Hadi sebelah tangan, contohnya ketika masak, tapi kemudian separuh pengsan. 10.8 kg weh! Haha. Cupcakes Ibu beli kat R&R Sg. Buloh saja. Haha. Kasih dah dapat party box Hadi hantar?

Chech said...

Tak pasti dah wish Hadi atau belum, tapi, apa salahnya wish dua kali kan. Happy birthday, Hadi! I love your party venue (particularly those fun little houses). Pandai Mama Hadi pilih tempat.

dillazag said...

Wow! Good job, first time baby/kid birthday planner and organizer!!
*tepuk, tepuk, tepuk*

Here's to many, many more fun birthday parties!

Oh, Happy 1st birthday wira hati Marliza!

Marliza Radzi said...

Chech: A friend suggested the place, we went & have dinner & I was hooked sebab ada play area where Hadi can play all he wants while Mama & Papa enjoy our foods.

Sis Dilla: A last minute one pula tu! Hehehe. Thanks Aunty, Hadi kata.
