Eyewitness Account: PPS Birthday Bash

Yes! I was at the Project Petaling Street 2nd Anniversary Birthday Bash (PPS2ABB) tonight and I rushed home to blog about it, just so I can leave the first ping! Bwahahahahah! Somebody gimme a kiasu award!

Update at 24 June 2005, 12:07am
I noticed a spike in the hits just because of my ping. So I figured I better write something more substantial before anyone sends me hate-mail or something. :)

Mae and I got there at 9:00pm. Parking was impossible. We ended up parking at the Selangor Club right behind Merdeka Square. Charlie's is a lovely place. Very cosy and rustic. Unfortunately, we turned out to be a big group. By the time we got there, there must have been 50-70 people there. As you can imagine, both air-cond and Charlie's staff were overworked. People were everywhere. In the pub. Outside on the yard (can I say yard?). In the gallery (the place had a nice art gallery). And all the blogging luminaries were there. It was like some crazy Hollywood event. Cameras were flashing everywhere!

It seemed like everyone had brought a camera. That's when I kicked myself in the ass. Of all the bloody days to forget my camera. *sigh* But I suppose, by tomorrow, the whole of PPS will be buzzing with photos and news and stuff.

Okay. More tomorrow. Watch this space. :)
