Please don't declare me a loser just 'cause I'm sitting at home and blogging while the whole world's out partying to celebrate Christmas. Anyway, I've finally got some newfound motivation to start blogging again, and even made the effort to make this collage. :) 

I've been attending so many birthday parties and there's just too many pictures to show, but I seriously don't have time! Really wanna blog about my Chai pie's birthday soon, because she's so beautiful, and I tell her everyday~ (no prizes for guessing the song title!) The party was a blast, but we'll come to that in another post! 

Shirley' 21st was held at Amara Resort in Sentosa, and it was a simple and nice gathering for some of the L1/ BP kids. Heheheh, and guess what! Ivan aka pangseh Lau didn't pangseh this time. He was really quite sick and I felt bad for making him go. We got Shirley a bottle of vodka and a card, but realised that her party has no lack of alcohol. Oh wells, finally seeing all the familiar faces was awesome though! Met my BB policewoman at the party too! 

We played some drinking games, but the penalty was to eat the mushy vodka gummies that Shirley made. Hahahaha. It. was. gross. And I really suck at the games, so I kept eating them. :( But it was all in the name of fun! Lazed around and talked nonsense, until we realised it was kinda late and drizzling so we had to leave. Ivan and Shu payed for the cabfare home, and refused to let pay because I was kinda broke and against the idea of cabbing. Urgh, feel so bad for owing them. Hopefully we'll meet soon so I can treat them back (before my memory fails me). That said, I'm always very thankful for meeting this bunch of people in my secondary school days. The BPians are some of the most genuine and generous friends that I've met so far, generally speaking. With them, there's no need for false fronts and fake smiles. Really adore that. :) 

birthday cakes and happy smiles

I love this picture, it just oozes happiness. And I really miss my sec sch mates though most of us have lost contact already. I really love BP people! They're such happy and lovely people. :)

Oh very nais.

Happy 21st to my beloved girlie, Qi! :) Thank you for making me feel comfortable and welcomed at your party. I had lotsa fun. Thank you for remembering me in your speech as well. Heheh. Gandong x100! :D I love you very much. Please promise me you'll be happy and spend more time doing stupid things with me. We're all growing old so quickly! Meh. Hope you like the pencilcase + stationary, and make full use of them! :)

And I still owe you a card. Damn.

celebrating my birthday with lunch at Etna

Met Antz again on my actual birthday for lunch, instead of dinner, because I felt so bad that he was having so little family time. But it was honestly a really bad day for me. I couldn't be unluckier and despite my attempts to stay positive, somehow I snapped like a rubber band. :( 

It rained the moment I left my house and while walking to the bus stop, the heel of my shoes actually came off. So I had no choice but to pluck off the other side, and limped about trying to find slippers as replacement. Sigh. As a result, I was late in meeting Anthony. Double sigh. The restaurant was supposed to close by two thirty, so we had to rush. But when I met him, it was nearly two fifteen. I kinda gave up the idea of having lunch at Etna but A didn't wanna give up. He hopped onto the bus and soon realised that we took the wrong bus. Failblog! I kinda vented my frustrations on him by dumping a sack of rice and a box of Fybogel onto his lap. Hahaha, but after that I became happy again. So we got off and started walking slowly. Soon, we saw Etna and decided to try our rotten luck! 

The waitress and cooks were all chilling at the counter, and they looked so shocked to see us. But thankfully, we made it on the dot and they agreed to serve us although they were about to close. How lucky we are, afterall! :) The service was impeccable and I love the friendly waitress that served us.

Antz is gonna kill me if he finds out that I put up his ugly shots D:

(but he looks so cute I couldn't resist)

set lunches are value-for-money! $22+ only!

mushroom soup was boomz! we loved it. 

chicken fingers! very crispy and yummy as well :)

his squid ink pasta - which tastes like tomato sauce strangely.

When the waiter served this, he made fun of Antz and said, "After eating this, you cannot kiss your girlfriend already." Hahaha. I happily agreed and made fun of him by pretending his teeth was full of black and gross stuff. But despite the gross looking nature of his pasta, it's actually rather tasty - if you can get over the fact that it's all black.

my roasted chicken with mushroom gravy! major yums :)

 pistachio tiramisu cake is loveeee! 

we had this last year on my bday as well, but at another cafe.

chocolate ice cream, which was damn thick

at the bus stop waiting to meet yuzhong to pass him his skates!

this was after going to the sinseh with A to heal his wrist, buying treats for Kiki at the pet shop nearby, and queuing up for KOI hazelnut with pearls at AMK. we went to coffee bean to slack and my pounding headache was killing me. Felt easily irritable but my moodiness was cured immediately when I came out of the toilet and A held out a bottle of Pokka green tea, asking if it was my favourite drink. :) Instant mood lifter x100!

my baby bear!

tired out after a long day

we're going to Bali, baby!

thank you everyone for the birthday wishes!

finally, i'm 21. time to act mature i guess? HAHA, NOT! thank you to everyone who took the effort to remember and send me birthday wishes in every way possible. :D i feel so loved! will definitely blog about my birthday cause there're too many people to thank. :) love y'all loads! heehee.

will blog asap when i get back from diving on 27th! :) by then, my memory would have failed me so please be patient & forgiving if i leave out details. i'll miss the few of you in sg & aussie, y'all know who you are! till then, take care!

Happy Birthday to my mummy love! :D

Somehow, the weeks just flew past without me realising. But to make up for the lack of posts due to my exams, here's a photo log of what I've been up to while trying to juggle tuition and tests, week after week. It's really tiring, but I think I'm the kind who would shrivel up and turn into a dried prune if there's nothing to occupy my mind and time. So yeah, I shouldn't complain right? :)

 while mugging for math @ amk, anthony actually drew this for me! :)

 

 i know right? super impressed with his drawing skillz too, heh.

 soo cute, EMO spongebob! 

(anthony calls it EMO BOB cause he darkened the eyes and gave it a striped tie. hahaha!)

this was after CSE class @ pizzahut!

i remember i was the one who wanted to go pizzahut badly the week before, so everyone promised they'd keep their evening free for me. yet i almost pangsehed the group to go meet anthony that annoying boy (to buy stuff @ expo) who pangsehed me in the end cause he was sian about his results stuff and decided to meet his hockey friends. so, it went full circle, and i ended up eating with my classmates at pizzahut! satisfied my drumlets craving :) but guess what's the funniest thing? ANTHONY TAI AND FRIENDS WENT TO PIZZAHUT TOO. rofl. yuzhong was the one who spotted me! i noticed them in the middle of biting into a slice of pizza, how very glam huh?

 

btw michelle is my project mate, miss chai! :)

it was such a coincidental thing. heh

pretty nails! :D

 got a ride home, courtesy of ny the pink dolphin guy! :) he dropped kang and qp off, before sending me home when in fact, the bus services have started running already. hee, thank God for friends like him (Y)

p/s: I stole the nerdy specs from jocelyn my bumper, who generously offered to give it to me! :) heheh i very shamelessly took it because I love it soo much! It makes me feel the nerd vibe immensely. And y'all know I've always had a thang for nerds right? ;)

the big TWO-ZERO (:

omg, i finally found the motivation to upload the miserable hp pics of my bday celebration today! :D

was supposed to meet with the divers (kang, qp, ants, joel, alan, ellis, ben, dean, iggy) @ vivo for dinner. however, i got like another pleasant surprise when i found out that qixin, genny and lingsie were also there to celebrate my bday for me too! heh, thanks babes for coming down! i really appreciate it. :)

hahahaha, i saw qixin and genny sitting down on a bench actually, but i didn't know it was them. they looked like a lesbian couple, cause genny was moving her head to and fro suspiciously, and it looked as though they were kissing... so i didn't dare to stare. oops i shouldn't have jumped to conclusions and judged you two. Heheheh. *blush*

we settled down at white dog cafe for dinner, and it was awesomz cause of the company. they bought this really yummy square tiramisu cake, but there's no pictures of it cause chai siew ling didn't put in her memory card when taking the photos! LOL. oh well, it's just as well. i look super cui on my birthday cause i had like two hugeass pimples on both sides of my cheeks. FML right :(

i was a major phailure at cutting the cake, so thank god qixin was there to save me. heheh. my birthday wish was super lame. i wished that everyone would do well for exams, cause i didn't know what to wish for anyway -.- if my wish comes true, y'all owe me one eh? *wink wink*

okay i just found this photo from bakerzin's website! :D
it's super yums! teehee.

after dinner, qixin, genny and chai left first. then joel and ants went home, so the rest of us decided t go to holland village to chill, talk cock, and drink coffee. hahaha. the quality of my phone's pics really suck. i didn't bring camera out that day :(

spy cam! heheh.

HAHAHAHA. everybody, this is my friend iggy. :D

and my absolut love, helen nicole han qingpei!
