entertaining the masses

so its the birthday on Friday.. *sigh* .. yup mine!
i get all anxious cos i have to plan things.. and i dnt like to think of what i want to do..
now i could just invite everyone home to chill at my place..but with this comes the mission of catering.. like cakes (both baking and buying), chips, cooldrinks, savouries (once again buying and making) and the rest.. with this comes extra before hand tidying up (dont ask me why!! this is what's meant to happen) and naturally cleaning up afterwards..
Or I could just invite everyone to go out for dinner or something.. i find this somehow limiting cos u cant invite everyone you know.. it would just be too much admin work.. calling people.. getting confirmations..making bookings etc. and there are bound to be last minute cancellations.. i really could do without the drama.. Or.. i could round up the peeps to go for a braai after Jumu'ah somewhere in the out doors.. this would seem pretty simple.. but also a degree of prep..
im starting to sounding lazy innit?..but there are 7 assignments due when i go back to school. .so im really getting stressed about that, and i would much prefer doing work on that than stressing myself out with a bday plan :/ arrgh!! i dunno what to do!! the family will also be coming around.. this goes without saying..which i totally dont mind :) but need to prep for that too... then its also Easter weekend..and many ppls go away.. so added to my planning concerns i need to ascertain who of my friends are available.. and knowing me il most likely only find this all out on thursday.. then be all sad cos everyone will be away..
oh i have no lis .. *sigh*
... help?
