Ok. Lets see now. Is it possible for Singaporean young
generation now to hold house parties in their HDB flats like those days in the 70s and 80s? When I mean
house parties here is having F&B and dancing to celebrate
Birthdays or whatever during the holidays, to mingle and
socialize.
The way I see it, yes! And it’s not expensive if compared to
when you go clubbing etcs. All you need to do is to have a venue.
The host can either sponsor for all the expenses or get some
contributions from his or her friends. And of course, you need to
seek permission from your parents. If they say, “No!”, then you ask
them (if they are in their 40s and 50s), “Why not? You attended
house parties in the 70s and 80s to socialize, mingle, dance and
have fun!.” And your house party should be held on Saturday
evening, around 6.30pm and end before midnight or after midnight.
This house party is where all the young people regardless whether
you are poor, average or rich, meetup and have fun. Invite your
neighbours’ kids too so hopefully no complains from them haha.
You don’t need a DJ to host your house parties. The host and his
or her friends must be out going to start that dance.
If you live in a 3 room HDB flat, you can
still hold that house party. Clear your living room for that dance
floor and place those sofas and chairs outside in the common
corridors for your guests to sit too.
Well, think about it. Throw down that mobile phones and PC; and
start to socialize, dance and enjoy yourselves! It will be fun.
It’s better and more productive than those dating events organized
by the private match making agencies and the Government.
