Yet another weekend passed by and I've studied NOTHING AT ALL!


Went shopping for birthday gifts on Thurs & Friday and ended up with quite a number of unexpected shopping loots for myself instead.

Like I mentioned before, there's gonna be lots of September babies this month and it was Lynn's birthday party on Saturday!



The party was themed Lynn's School of Geeks so we'd dress up to look like students...of tootness, geek specs etc. The birthday cake was delicious, had a tinge of alcohol, though I don't really fancy its creaminess.




Some decorations at the party that made it school-like.











The birthday girl making a wish...



Childhood friends since primary school days!





Not much photos taken with my cam cuz lynn had some photographer frens to take the photos that night. Will be uploaded on FB soon I supposed. Party was great, food was great. Yet another friend who had turned 21!

Still not sure how I should celebrate mine. Throw a party or celebrate in small groups instead?




I love this photo!


UP Up and AWAY! Helium balloon makes me high! ^^

Happy 21st Birthday Adelene!




Yet another friend's bday in the month of September.
21st birthdays are making me so damn broke... But afterall, it's a once in a lifetime so enjoy it my dears.
We celebrated the actual day of her bday over dinner at Timbre with a hearty meal!
The portion was really good and we couldn't manage to finish the food even though we sat down as hungry cats.


Our mini beef burgers, and half-eaten roasted duck pizza & seafood platter!

Mini beef burger was my favourite!




Inspired by the Taiwanese drama Why why love?

Jas came up with a plan to help Ade find her "10th Guy". Initially we started counting the 10th single guy who walked into Timbre so Ade could go get his contact but plan failed.

So we changed the rules and got Ade to ask to take pictures with 10 stranger guys on the street. Even though she din managed to pick up the courage and ask for a contact, I bet this 21st bday incident would etch deeply in her memory. Hahah.

The underpass street musician sang her a Birthday song when we walked past..




Shots taken on Jas's polaroid.





Over 12 years of friendship... and still counting!


I don't think the girls do read this blog but I just wanna say:

Jas & Ade. I cherish our friendship. Really do! ^^

On friday, Dear & I also caught a movie marathon at GVmax, Vivocity.

My friends should know I love horror movies and of course I won't miss the Phobia 1 & 2 movie marathon!

It was $38/pax for a Thai buffet dinner + 2movies + a popcorn combo + complimentay entry pass to St James Powerstation!

The buffet dinner was catered by Hotel Rendezvous and it was not bad at all. I love the sweet and sour fish and the Thai tom yam crispy chicken!

A short dance segment and lucky draw was conducted by Shan & Ros before the start of the movie but guess I wasn't lucky enough that day to win the holiday trip for 2 to Phuket.. Aww. envy the lucky winners.

I would have to agree that my senses were really so so awakened that night by all the fright and scare. It was exciting! =X hahaha. but the movies ended quite late at 1.30am, and I had to attend the spanish make-up lesson in school at 9am the next day so the lack of sleep was quite a pain. Of cuz we didn't go to St James.

Yay! lots of horror movies nowadays, I'm looking forward to DARAH which is coming soon. If i'm not it's a local production, with the scene settings either in Msia or Indonesia.

The past week was so exhausting. I finished lab early at 12.30pm today then Jeff drove us to JP for lunch and arcade. Afterwhich, I decided to skip the 4.30pm lecture as I was feeling too tired, would be falling aslp in class even if I were to be physcially there, so no point.

I had only 3hrs of sleep the night before as it was already late by the time i return home from the basic culture and sign language course, and I still had to finish up lab report.

I think I haven't really mentioned before, but I've joined the Welfare Service Club as a member of RSPHI - regular service project for Hearing Impaired. We'll be attending weekly sign language lessons now till november before the regular service begins next year, which is to tutor the HI children at the HI centres.

I'm really glad to be accepted into the club after the 2nd interview. I've been interested in this since year 1 but have failed to join till now, which I reckon is the final chance for me to get involved in such school activities before I graduate.

So anyway, the pageant ppl had their full dress rehearsal in hall today before their big day on this coming saturday. Since I skipped my 4.30pm lecture, I certainly did not stayed on in hall till 8pm to watch them. Took the MRT and dropped by at Bugis to take a look at the costumes @ Masquerade. Dinner & dance's on this Saturday but I haven even prepared a suitable outfit to suit the theme :


Villains.


Hard right? Might probably end up dressing as a witch or dracula if got no other suitable ideas.


So anyway, for some last minute casting of votes:

I need some sleep very badly.

Adios~

HAPPY 21st Xiao Ting!


Just came back from Xiaoting's (pri schmate) bday party this evening. It was held at Marina Bay, The Sail. Posh residence. Damn cool lah! The function room was on the 44th level and the view was great! As it was situated in the middle of the business district, we were surrounded by tall buildings and can even see the singapore flyer from the room! A pity there was also contructions works all around the area. U know lah.. IR works etc.



Primary school classmates. =)

View from the function room. can actually see the Singapore Flyer from there. Totally cool!



The party in the spacious function room. Great buffet! FOoooD~

The party was themed Doraemon, XT's fav! But apparently, no one really dresses up in a doraemon suit or anything like it at all. Haha, I've actually wanted to dress like Yi-Jing, Doraemon's female friend but I just couldn't find any red skirt at home even though I got yellow top. So afterall, we're all clad in blue!








Last photo with the Bday gal before we leave the place. I'm sure she'll be smiling sweetly in her dreams tonight after the successful simple yet heart-warming party. Blessed. =)

My FIRST Teacher's Day present!



Went for tuition today and my cute tutee actually gave me a teacher's day present! I totally didnt see it coming. Haha! How sweet... =D

Taught 2 tuition sessions at different places before rushing down to Marina Square to meet GuanCheng, SongGuan and Peiwen to catch up before SG fly off to Taiwan next week. He'll be studying at National Taiwan University (also NTU) for 4 years.

The guys had to rush off to their other gatherings so peiwen and I had Korean food for dinner at Suntec, did some shopping before heading home.

Such a coincidence to bump into Kaixiang, Fuxiang and Jason in one night. Haven been in contact for a long long time. Shall meet up with the sec sch peeps soon.

Had been so busy for the past week that time seem to fly past. It's going to be Week 5 of the semester and mid term tests are coming up!

Over the week, I attended Korean Cultural Society's welcome tea session and signed up as member, attended the last Hall 8 dinner&dance meeting, skipped a 9.30am lecture, celebrated Candice's 21st birthday with Joa and Aud, watched Final Destination 4 and tried hard to start studying.

So far, travelling from home has been fine and I've sort of gotten used to it. Looking forward to recess week and hopefully I can discipline myself to keep up with the work. Really cant afford to get cui gpa this sem anymore.

JYJY!
