18th.

12:55 AM

Has been undoubtedly been extremely special and enjoyable.

Hehee. Pardon my envy wrenching and solemn opening, but yes ! My 18th has been so wonderful, I couldn't have asked for anything better.

For the past few hours, I have been picking carefully on the photos that would be added into this entry to remind me in future of exactly how wonderful my 18 was. And for the past hour, I have been loading these photos into the post.

With the advancement of technology these days, you would think that photos should be uploaded with a snap two fingers. But no ! They had to take me one hour, thus, having me fret that that would snatch me of my blogging inspiration.

Hehee. But it's good to know, not only am I not at a lack of inspiration, I am actually gushing.

Ah, the power of a beautiful mind.

(ahahaha. okay la. that's a little too much even for me.)

Alright. Now I start my entry proper.

Yay !! 18 ! How magical is that? It's like I was 5 yesterday, and after a couple of foggy events and incidents, I am now 18 and ready to take on the world. Ahahahahaa.

Today's the day of my birthday, but I feel like I've celebrated it for the past week so much so that on the actual day, it's time for me to take a break. And blogging about it is my best idea of a break !

If you have so carefully read my sincere typing up till now, do go on to finish the entire entry. Because as I have said, every word here that marks my 18th is sincere, and specially thought by me. Both to help me remember the day in future, and also to thank the people who made it special. Hehe.

(also to haolian on how lucky and happy i am la ! but you all no need to know that right??)
(ahahhaha)

Oh ! Also, I adore the ending parts best((:

So, here we go !!

If there's any part in this that makes you feel like strangling for being so hatefully blessed, well then. I am sorry but all I can say is, I am indeed extremely hatefully blessed. And to the bone. (:

On the weekend before my birthday, I stressed and planned and plotted my way to spending a night in town together with my favourite girls in the world.

And that I did.

After days of turning the entire web over trying to decide on the best price compromising and glam'est (i patent this word!! ahaha) hotel, I gave up and settled for Meritus Mandarin in town.

Because price comprising and glamglam simply don't come together in Singapore it seems.

And so Meritus Mandarin it was !

(prepare to be drowned by our mountains of cam-obsessing photos)

First step into our room at Meritus.

Oh and Elaine, wish you were here. Quickly get back from Aus soooonish !!! ):


Everything was so neat and tidy at first la. Lol ! You should have seen the room after we left. Like pig sty hotel. We are such lovely girls(:

Si Ying and Wei Ting waiting for me to finally finish the photo taking.
(they couldn't wait to jump onto the beds)

Just to see what it looks like from our height. Hehee. So this is what the top of Heeren looks like.

First photo with Wei Ting. Hmmm... Well.

Why, why.

Why so serious? Ahahaha O:




More photos ! More photos !!! As you can see, we love staying in the toilet.

Si Ying, try to sell the shower.

Wei Ting, trying to sell the flower.

Lovely photo of her thought. Hahaha...

And me ! Trying to sell the phone. Heeeeheeee.

And now ! Not very sure if we are trying to sell the bed or the pillow leh...

Plus I have that blue black on my knee. )': So kor lian dai.

Mirrors are a camera's best friend.

Si Ying, being lazy. So early then jump into bed. Tsk tsk.

Funny huh? Got these window. The link with the toilet or something. Got a bad fright at first when I was inside the toilet and Wei Ting and Si Ying opened the windows. Thought can see through but it's actually glazed. -_-

Si Ying, trying to sell Heeren Towers. Ahahahahaha.

I do crack myself up so. Heheee.


Try her hand at the window curtains. Dusty leh inside. But she claims its not.

Last photo before we left the hotel for tea, and to have Mei Xian and Zi Qi join us !

Poor Zi Qi hurt her foot and had to arrive late.):

Poor Mei Xian who, erm. She didn't hurt anything but had to join us late too. Hm... I wonder why... haahhaha.

Had Fish and Co' for dinner ! It's almost like a birthday tradition !

Mei Xian laughing at Si Ying's Winnie the Pooh wallet. Quite cute la actually. Lol.

We returned to the hotel almost immediately to start on some extremely important activities. 5 girls in a hotel room, what else could we get up to?

And in the toilet no less.


Photos photos !



We almost didn't touch this. Don't know bring for what leh... Maybe in 2 more years la.

Yay !!! And here ! Finally we have my birthday cake.

How very apt for an eighteen year old right. Can see the cartoon?

It's Care Bears. ((: Thanks ar girls.

They were right. I did wish for a gazillion things, but they've been constant throughout these couple of years. All have been fulfilling so far. (:

Cake cake !


More cake !

Mei Xian squatting there so very glam like. Hahaha. Filling up my birthday card inconspicuously. -_- At least hide in the toilet ma. Tao Yan.

Yay ! Guess who's PJs for the night? Hahahaha.


Act cute abit before turning oldddd.

Mei Xian looks away for a moment.

Joins us again.

Wei Ting being a lazy bum.

We were all sooo lazy watching tv that we ended up sleeping. ):

Morning. Guess who?

Check out.

And the night is over waaaay to soon ! We should have talked more more more !

Hai. That marks the end of my celebration with the girlfriends.

Sad that it ended, but I know that there'll be much much more to come !!! Thanks you guys for the wonderful presents, and memories, and time, and laughs. and everything else. (((:

Please get out more often ok. Especially when Elaine's back.

Oh ! And in case you thought my birthday ended just like that, do think again.

The second part was the best to come. Heeeeeeheeee. *shy la*


Wednesday, the day before my birthday, was to be the day I celebrate with my favourite person in the world !!!

(excluding family of course)

Heheheee. It was a really long day. Met up with Wen Hao right after school in town.

I was so excited waiting for my present and everything !!! Turns out that it was all worth the wait. AHAHAHAHAA.

Okay la. Don't keep saying. Later really get strangled.

Went for a movie before anything else to past the time.

Burn after reading? Hai. I felt like it was more like Burn after watching.

But never mind that !

... Wa. 12 am now leh. Very tired.

But no ! I have to finish writing this !!!!!

Okay back.

After the dinner, we didn't have much to do and I was reeaaaaaaaalllly huuuungry having not eaten the whole day. So we headed down to Suntec, to catch a quick bite !

Funny leh. The usually packed places during weekday like an abandoned city.

Hehe ! Better that way. Everything to ourselves !

At Kenny Rogers. Nobody one. O_O

Ordered Cheese Marcaroni ! Wen Hao thought it was disgusting. Oh well. I liked it !

Digressing, here are some photos we took that day ! No scanner, so I had to turn on MACRO MACRO to take the prints with my cam.

I know I cheapo la. Lol.


Don't jealous hor. The hearts behind us simply erupted out of nowhere after the we took the photos. Oh ! The power of us. (((:

(ok. whack me now(((:)

Finally finally !!!!! Tony Roma's opened at 6pm with almost an empty house. Dinner usually means present opening time, so over here, I am super duper excited secretly. Hehee.


Deciding what to order.

Wondering hard what's wrapped beneath.



Can you smell it from where you're seated?

*whiffff*

See la ! Before I can even take a photo, his plate is so unsightly already.

Hehee. Actually no la. Tony Roma has this wonderful service where they get you to check your beef to see if it's properly cooked as you like it. If it's notm they'll change it for you !

Wen Hao being the kia su boy that he is, actually did check the meat and changed it. Actually I think they knew there was a problem with it la so they offered to change.

And the meat tasted heavenly !!!

(and here siying starts nagging ay us about how mean we're being for eating red meat)

Tao Yan la. Everytime I eat beef also I will be scared of being scolded by her. Lol.

Heheee. After the dinner, Wen Hao kept asking me to guess my present and to open it.

It was so nicely wrapped la !!!

This photo abit blur and red. Look at the next one.

See this???? How could anyone ever bear to open such a gift?!

Rea life really very nice leh. I love it):

Wen Hao told me that the ribbon was actually tied by a boy where he brought it to.

Hehe. Luckily he never try to tell me that he tied it himself...

Anyways, I did open the gift and it was daaaaaaamn (i don't even use this word when writing!) oh my.

One look at the present- and I felt guilty, embarassed, bad for all the times I've been unreasonable and having argued with him.

Also, along with that line of emotions, I felt reeeeaaaallly happy, touched and stunned by it.

But then again, alot of it I felt heart pain la. Kind of expensive leh.

What's more is that he carried the gift the entire day that I made him walk up and down town. I didn't even realize it was so heavy in the beginning lo !!! So poor thing. Those lousy plastic bags are seriously not made for carrying heavy stuff. >:(

Oh, and where's the gift you ask?

Wait la. Ending can or not. Too many photos on that la. Hehee.

So while still comprehending the full weight of my present opening, we sashayed (i felt like that was how i walked after the present. in a dreamlike manner. or a trance) around and ended up in Raffles City.

Went to the basement to have some dessert. We're all gluttons. (:


Hehe. the candle on the table. I actually made someore birthday wishes and blew this one out.







Mocha, cake and apple pie. This part of the night was my favourite.

Hahahaha. And then so funny la ! The entire day he was abit siansian cause the gift was so heavy and difficult to take, plus his leg was peeling off.

I mean skin.

He didn't even mention the blister until he finally showed it to me and I got the plaster.

And then the entire time while putting on the plaster, he kept saying, " like girl like that, like girl like that leh" and "Very gay leh".

Lol. What more can I say...

Passed by and couldn't resist a photo. Raffles raffles raffles.

And there, the night ended with a long walk in the city and a peaceful bus ride back home. (:

Oh and before anything. Thanks to my Dad who decided to get me this ! Passed it to me almost a week earlier and I am uber touched. A little tiny, but am extremely glad that he remembered.

This is the peak of my adult life leh. Every important detail also must write ok? (:

And now ! At long long last !

Hai. So lovely that it's still lying this way in my room right now.

Okay la ! I shall open the present all over again just to relive that moment in Tony Roma's. Heheeee.

Peeling... peeling...

And this is the first thing I see.

Lightly shrieked in the restaurant cause for me, this box and handle... is all tooooo familiar.

Hm. And what could it be you ask?

.
.
.

Tadah ! Macbook !

Inside !

Even more insider ! Ahhhhh !!!! Save meeee !!!!


And it's black !!

I was a bit a biiiiiiit disapointed when I saw that it's black. But I guess he's right. I'll dirty the white model and the black's specs are indeed better.

Somewhere along, I decided that I did say I'll like anything that he buys and am loving my black apple.

Havn't used it yet though. Opened it a moment just now and wrapped it back to its original form again. AHAHAAHAHA.

Saw this in Tony Roma and I almost died.

Hehe. Screensaver personally made for me !

What... don't laugh hor. I think it's cute cannot meh?

I am the luckiest girl in the world.


The flipping backgrounds.

Took this in Tony Roma.

Well, the cards for me made the year. I felt that they were even more special than the presents.



From Wen Hao.

Hehe. Almost more touched seeing this than the Mac. Again, a night with disbeliefs just keeps unfolding before me.

A card??

He say everytime also have one but I remember clearly this is first time leh... ...

I think someone kidnapped the boy and traded me for a refurbished alien. Lol.

Can see what he wrote?

I can but I don't understand it ! Everytime I want to read it again, I think I'll have to get him to read and translate for me like the first time. Ahahaha.

Yaaaaay.

Thank you for the thoughts and effort. (:


Si Ying and the girls' card was extremely cute too.


Try to bluff me say they colour one. Zzz.


Well, I think that that's about it. Few hours to record all these down.

Hm. My day's officially over at this time. But that fuzzy happiness is still rich in me.

Goodnight everyone.
