Catchy-card shuffle..

It's been a while since my last sweet 17th Birthday Party -*for ur info, I've always been involved with the party organizer ('full color' & 'chick n click') as anything they need me to be, an usher, game-stand keeper, theatrical actor and an MC...

Tonight the theme was 'Viva Las Vegas' with Sharon as the birthday girl...
The decoration was great, inspired by casinos in Las Vegas, two big cards ( King Dimond & Queen clover ) attached to the background at the stage, and also there were 4 game-stands to play for ; Darts,
Dice-Game, Card-Game and Wheel of fortune..

Everything went well..
I became the card-game croupier, one coin each participant for joining the game, the coins stood as the bet.. I distributed the card after performing a catchy card-shuffle..and quite simple, the winner is the participant with the biggest card... ^^



It's been almost 4 years since my first party.. and everything seems to be a lot different, no.. not everything.. the party is still the same, always been a great spectacle, the themes are the same, even though there are always some improvement over the creativity.. the crowd ? not exactly..
Actually.. I think.. It's just me whose changed.. I'm getting older and the party is always for them, the teenagers... ^^
Makes me feel so old.. =(

Maybe I have to change my part time job..Hmm.. being an activist for old folk's house would make me feel a lot younger I suppose... :p

About the title: Thir13en

Well.. I had some difficulty choosing the right title or even the right theme for the blog, I want it to be as 'me' as it can be..

I'm not a beginner in writing a blog, but I'm a beginner in designing a blog..

My idealistic mind thought that since the blog has to represent me as the writer, it should not be just ordinary (by using default template)...

So...

I began to try exploring who am I ? what is my real passion ? My hobby ? My uniqueness ?

I tried to look distinct things 'bout myself and so not just satisfied with just common title as Joe's Blog, Jojo's Blog or Jo-Blog.. as they are already used for hundreds of blogs ( well.. I did Googling =p).

I almost used IPENKZ (Item Kerempengz = black and skinny) for the title as it's my nickname given by some of my closest friends.. ^^

But then thx to Fanie, my dear friend who always gives big supports for what I do, once she texted me before leaving to Kuala Lumpur and 10 minutes before I put IPENKZ as my blog title, "Can't wait hearing the update from your project 13", I got surprised a bit since I never mentioned or even had any project 13... ^^

but so... I realized that 13 is not just my favourite number because I was born on February 13th.. 13 has always been my 'thing', my identity, my self-representative, and my lucky number which always been in any part of my life.. ^^

And here it is now.. After a time consuming text title designing with photoshop cs3..

I introduce name, title, brand or whatsoever my blog will called.. THIR13EN !

^^

Hope you guys like it.. hmm.. I think it much better than IPENKZ.. =p
