I’m not sixteen anymore, but every time I see those ‘lucky’ specimens on MTV, I always wonder: What would MY super sweet 16 be like if my budget was unlimited? Could I possibly organize a better party if I had the money? Would my guests be all hysterical and want to talk about my party to their grandchildren? Would I be a nastly, immature brat with no manners and decency?
Here is a comprehensive list of things that I’d like for my theoretical super sweet sixteen;
- Theme: Something sophisticated, but not yet snobby. What about a pyjama party? Only guests would wear pyjamas, waiters wear tuxedos.
- Invitations: Perhaps a pyjama outfit with the name of the invitee to the pary embroidered in gold?
- Location: Local mall? Pleez. it would have to be something way more classy. I’m thinking Kurhaus in Scheveningen. An old skool, old world luxury hotel.
- Performer: A local rapping sensation? What kind of a cheapo do you take me for? If I could, I’d get She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, but I guess I could settle for Kylie Minogue, Robbie Williams or Amy Winehouse (but she must promise to go to rehab). In any way, I would decide the music. The artist would have to be dressed in a dress/tuxedo. Very classy.
- Entrance: Tough one. Perhaps I might be carried into the party on a bed (as if sleeping). The bed should fly.
- Escort: During my entrance (in bed, that is), I wish to be side by side with Emma Watson (Hermione Granger). I guess one of the Olsen twins couldbe OK (or both;)).
- Nourishment: I want Jamie Oliver to do the catering. First dinner, then partay.
- Refreshment: Booze. You see, in the Netherlands, you can drink since you’re 16. Water can only be Evian, no other water will suffice.
- Gifts 1: Guests need to bring gifts. It’s only normal. I throw party, they bring gifts.
- Gifts 2: I want a car. I want Volkswagen Beetle Carbio, customized so that it can have 16 16-inch plasma screens, just because it’s my birthday.
So… this is my wishlist. Any bored billionare wanna sponsor me?
It’s my party, and I’ll cry if I want to!
Peter
