this entry is ridiculously backdated.

now that visuals have been uploaded, here's
My 21st Birthday Celebration at long last.
held on 7 February 2009/Saturday
at my Aunty's place since she catered dinner.
speaking of which, to friends whom i didn't ask to come
i definitely remembered you all the same,
but being organized at a relative's place in the end
made it quite difficult to invite everyone.

whoever said twenty-first should be a big bash,
held at some extravagant posh location
crammed with too many people
you'll hardly be able to even acknowledge them.

mine's a simple affair of family & friends
(interconnected a way or another so they wouldn't be left out)
yet i felt the immense bliss surrounding;
when i saw my dear ones arriving at the door...
mini-time spent to catch up with each of them
then crowding in that room to sing happy birthday.
the scenario was overwhelming, although i didn't show it.
my head spun from a mix of shyness (no joke) and joy,
that caused me to behave in a very out of sorts manner.

i will post the photos but bear in mind - not flattering at all.

yummy sinful birthday cake from Rive Gauche.
wooohoo thank you Baby! :O

traditional cutting pose.

(top) Spastic. (bottom) Kanchiong, Clumsy.

in no order of preference
xoxo to all of you who made the night memorable.

when i read those messages you each wrote!
researching from my blog
the things i love, the things we love,
the things i do & the things we do together,
really amazzzzzing. :*D

lovely, isn't it?
best of all the design is itsy bitsy adorable
and filled with sincerity to the brim. :D

from these girls since we don't usually have such practice.

makes me want to laugh & cry
simultaneously. hohoho.

having the three of you by my side
during the moment i turn 21, it is God-given
and i cannot wait for you alllll to join me! hee

this marks my 21st birthday.
although tired, i was ecstatic that evening
and even if time could reverse
guess i won't have suggested pub & alcohol
at all in the first place. grateful!

finally found Meyer's Eclipse in Times bookstore.
another 18 bucks to my collection.
18 is a lot of money when you are dirt broke.
but i totally love bedtime readinggg -
its especially good for people with insomnia. ;)

okay toodles, gees

ugh you're kidding me.
was almost done with updating.
but a glance at the clock and
realized i am bloody late for class.

tonight when home, promise!!

# 221

gosh i am such a bummer

been wasting time to chase dramas online.
most recently (aft Boys Over Flowers) is My Queen

hilarious! :D

and talking about Korean F4
i don't quite like how the show is ending ugh.
Boring, boring.

i was hoping they'd get together for at least a while!
Yoon Ji Hoo is consistently sweet to her
not to mention really charming too.

if only i had a job.....
to watch and then review Korean/Taiwan dramas,
bet you i'd merrily work overtime everyday HAHA!

_

so updates never happen here, do they?
3/4-way done in organizing the visuals.
there's something else to sigh about.

today was one of those days

in which i felt close to losing myself.

lucky for me
a comforting hug from BigSis turned it around.

we had an early celebration at Ivins Peranakan,
she's 24 already how time flies.
i clearly remember living under the same roof
when we were both still in St Nicks
dragging our ass up at 5.45 am every morning,
arguing who should wake up first once Daddy yelled
and fighting over the toilet hahaha. (0:

stupidly forgot my camera! ugh
here's 3 shots taken with cock phone.



i said "Big Smile!" & she gave me all of these.

_

the air con's not on
i am shivering like !@#$* uncomfortably - Sick.
finally went swimming last Thur
more than 10 laps but guess what...
the activity rewarded me with
massive leg cramps - Fucking Painnn.

cannot update
goodnight.
