My Birthday '11

Birthday Celebration With Enemies at Aston

It was held at Aston's in Centerpoint. It was a surprise because I didn't know where we were meeting. I was happy we are going there because western food never goes wrong with me. =P

Huli really surpassed herself! She was my bday organiser. At first, we didn't think this celebration will go well because of her history but she really, really gave me a wonderful party!

I had the cutest birthday cakes.

Sexayyyy! I want to have these figures by next birthday! =P



As seen, the baker was so meticulous.








With my favourite girls. =D



Sour grapes. If I don't have such big ones, the cupcake can't have them!







Splitting the ass. Heh!



Huli made these flowers! There were messages hidden inside each flower. So sweet! She must have spent much time and effort doing this. For me! I was so touched. =)


Love you, girls!


Birthday Celebration with Straits Gang at Concorde Hotel



Gwen managed to find this hi-tea buffet restaurant, the Spices Cafe, online. So, we went there for my bday celebration. It was so worth the money! There was Salmon sashimi which is my favourite! With that, I was a happy girl.




The biatches that I have known for 5 years. Phew.. Time really flew by.



My presents! They bought me a Laniege Moisturiser and Chelsia bought me a dress from Phuket.

It's a girl thing. Taking pictures in toilets.

Birthday Celebration with NIE Clique at Bar Bar Black Sheep


My favourite peeps in NIE asked me out for lunch after our psychology class on Monday to celebrate my birthday. Catherine drove us to this place that she was raving about a few months back. It is quite inaccessible unless you drive. Bar Bar Black Sheep is located along Cherry Ave, next to Sixth Ave.

My favourite peeps in NIE. =)

The western food stall closed on Mondays so we did not get to try it. But the Naans from the Indian stall made our trip worthwhile. They were delicious!






The peeps whom I hanged out with during my long long breaks in NIE. =)



Birthday Celebration with My Family at Home and Live@Teppan



Ethel and her mum made me a card for my birthday! And I was amazed with Ethel's artistic flair.



Nice right?


My cousin, Ethel's mum, bought me a cake!




My niece and nephews tried to blow the candles without me! Naughty kids! But they could win a bigger child (me!). I pushed them away and blew the candles. Wuahahaha!


Anyway, with the pampering adults around, they got to have a candle each and blew to their hearts' content.




Look at the pool of saliva on Aaron's chin and you know that he was such fun that he forgot to swallow his saliva.






The small little cake was split among 13 people.



Mum cooked giant prawns for me! These crustaceans were longer than 2 fingers combined! One prawn was enough to fill me up.



On my actual birthday, we went to Live@Teppan at West Coast Plaza to celebrate. The food was great! And we were entertained. I shall let the pictures do the talking.


















































Birthday Celebration with Sec School Gang at Bar Bar Black Sheep ... Again

Seems like this is the "in" place nowadays. Wan Lin suggested going Bar Bar to celebrate my bday. Although I was just there on Monday, I did not mind going back to try the Western food. This time round, we went there on a Saturday afternoon.

The western food Cat and Wan Lin were gushing about tasted pretty average to me. But maybe it was because I ordered the wrap instead of the steak which seemed to be their best dish. Well, to my steak lover friends, maybe you can give it a try when you go there!







After lunch, we went to Daily Scoop near my place for some desserts. Yums.. =)



I had a great time celebrating my birthday with my friends and family. =D Although growing old is a sad thing, they made that one time of the year a truly happy and memorable time for me. And I thanked them for helping me ease into another age.

I have the best people as friends. =)


***********************************

Merry Christmas!

I have two favourite festivals. One is the Chinese New Year and the other is Christmas! And I have enjoyed my Christmas this year to the fullest!

The first celebration was with my Enemies!

Cafe Orielo (Somerset 313)

This year, we decided to do something different. We decided not to determine who gets whose present before the celebration. We just decided on the budget and off we go to buy whatever present that falls within our budget. It was more exciting because we didn't know what we will get!

In went our ICs into a paper bag for the "lucky dip"!

I received Xiao Pang's present and Birdie got mine! I am so sorry, Birdie, that you got 2 organisers now! You are really lucky, you know! The chances of receiving my present was 1 out of 6 and you hit it! Maybe it's time to buy lottery. Or you just love me too much. Haha!







Ah Bun received a present from Huli.



Jaws received a present from Mascot, I think?



Xiao Pang received a present from Birdie.



Mascot received a present from Ah Bun.



Huli received a present from Jaws?

I had two surprises that night. When I first drawed Xiao Pang's IC, I was like, "Eh? Who is this?" Haha! Girl, you are much much prettier now! =P


The second surprise was when I saw my present. I immediately went, "WTH is this??" Haha! That is the longest present I have ever received. Don't think naughty.

It was photo frame or photo drop from IKEA! Very nice! And a passport holder which "coincidentally", has the same design as my 22nd birthday pencil box. I think I know who bought my pencil box back then! =P




Xiao Pang also managed to find the funniest Marie cat stickers for Jaws.

Marie, what happened to your eyes??



A log cake from Patissier, also from Xiao Pang! We thought that Santa was made from icing sugar and tried to behead him but failed. Santa is a tough old man.

Our 8th Christmas together. =)


Second celebration with my Straits gang!

Shaun's House (Hougang Unit 313)

First to arrive with my Vodka!


Shaun's parents had prepared soooo much food! There was another side table with vegetables not shown in this picture. And it was a non-beef lunch because of me. I was so touched. =) I was very glad that they had considered my religion beliefs and were very willing to accommodate me. I love my friends when they do this for me!


My favourite irritant, Ba Jie. =) Life would be boring without this mean Biatch.



My Straits gang! It is funny how fate works some times. I never thought I was able to make fast friends when I first started working at Straits. It is amazing that we manage to keep this friendship going despite going different paths. =)



Gwen bought sparkling juice!





POP!







I love my camera.


Maggie and me. =)



Present time! Maggie received my present and I received Maria's, I mean Ba Jie's, present! (She looks like a maid in her IC. Haha!)







Cheers!

And then, it was Mahjong time! I got to leave halfway through the game because I need to rush back for my cousin Jovy's birthday. But I won $11.50! Haha! Not enough for my cab fare back though.




The last celebration - Jovy's birthday and Xmas celebration.

Cousin's House (Sunsetway Street 13)



Pictures of my nieces and nephews!


Baby girl, Chloe, who has grown a lot this year!

Aaron, who always gives a emo look when taking pictures.

Alvin and Ethel. That is Alvin's "smiling" face that he saves for picture taking.


I had steamboat again!

This prawn was huge! But believe me, this was a midget compared to the rest in another bowl.

Caught in the act! Naughty girl, emptying her bottle of water into a bowl of corn.


The boys received their Christmas presents. More toys! Judging by the amount of toys they have, they can open a toy store. =P









My brother received an unexpected present, Oakley shades, from my cousin who claimed that the shades do not suit him. Lucky bro..



Took it for a picture!



Jovy's birthday cake from Choc a Bloc! One of the best chocolate fudge cake ever!



Birthday girl.



The kids gathered around the cake, eager to blow out the candle.

Ethel looked super comical in this picture! Makes me laugh everytime I see it.



Lawrence saw his little girl missed the chance to blow the candle and specially lit one for her to blow. Doting father...



On Christmas day, I received a card from my Bro. It was beautifully and painfully (I saw him struggled with the bits and pieces) designed with a sweet message inside. I heart my bro. =)

I love my Christmas this year. =D
