Mood: tired Fact of the day: event of the week: birthday!
Everything was as expected. Nothing disastrous actually happened, but was it a good party? I don't know...
My friends all said the food was good, but they didn't say they had a good time. In fact, I'm quite sure none of them actually had a wonderful time. From my point of view, I think the party was pretty pathetic. And although the intention was to see my friends, I realise it's really just seeing them, cos whatever interaction I managed to have with them had to be superficial. I wish I could sit down and actually hold a conversation for more than 3 minutes, but somehow I couldn't.
I felt especially bad for the uiuc people. Besides the fact that Priya couldn't eat any of the food except the cake, because only 3 of them turned up, they were the smallest and supposedly most "out-of-place" group.
I can't blame them for leaving so early..... The rgs gang was fine I guess. I didn't get to talk to them much either, but at least I'll be seeing them tomorrow again, so it should be fine. The hwachong gang, expectedly made themselves very comfortable, so they probably had more fun than any of my other friends.
My mom used to say that I have too many friends. I never did agree, and I still don't. But this is definitely the last time I'm ever going to try to hold a party for *all* my friends. How should I keep them entertained? Running all over the place, I think I really tried my best, but ended not achieving anything at all. As a hostess, I think I can do better. But it'll sure be some time before I try again.
To those reading this journal, thanks for coming. I really appreciate it.
