Crossing threshold

16th January 2009

Here to turning 21. Shahira & I had a joint birthday celebration at Costa Sands. Shahira’s birthday is actually on the 24th.

In the morning it was school til 1. Thank goodness the hurdle of median diastema is cleared. 4 to appease my distress the other day.

While working on oscar, Dr Lim noticed that I was sitting tip-toed. 

L: why are you sitting tip-toed?

Me: I think that’s the lowest the chair can go.

(signal me to stand up while he sits on the chair and lowered it somemore)

Me: …

Me: Just now when I tried it couldn’t go down

L:I think you’re too light that’s why

We arrived at A07 came evening. I thought shahira was in the room & went Happy Birthday Shahira. Turned out, the people inside were everyone but her. I repeated the kuku stunt again the following day when I wished the wrong sister happy birthday.

Kickstarted the skewering & get the fire going.

Mariana, Xiaoyan & Zhilin turned up early. It is so like them to be nothing less than punctual, lol. Was happy to see them:) Zhilin is really good with the camera, despite me telling her so little.

This chocolate is from Liane! It’s from this chocolate shop at Vivo we somehow always patronise for gift ideas.

 Night came. The food from bbq wholesale was really all yum. Big credit also goes to all the friends who helped tend the fire & barbeque the meat.

On saturday we had a small premature 21st birthday celebration in my honor with some peircean friends. At Macdonald’s we wore party hats, though I think I’m the only one truly enthusiastic to don one on my crown.

I hadn’t seen Xin ru & Jin fa for good ages already. We had many curly fries & McSpicys.

Darryl was the clown for the evening; his antics turning Xueqian & Melvin into spasms of laughter & uproar. We played some games. & Kevin decided to open up the stashed away chest of old loves.

So dread the monday

July 6, 2008

Always on the last day of hols I find myself nervously counting hours.

As usual, my stuff is unpacked, notes yet to be printed, readings untouched. I spent the afternoon instead watching 21, thanks to Liane. It was pretty good; Jim Sturgess won me over again with his deep-set mesmerising eyes. Kate Bosworth’s pretty. But I could not watch the ending cuz something went wrong with the disc. (oops) Yeah, was kinda let down with the skipping and the pauses. Donch really know what really happen after Ben and Jo made a mad dash out of the casino:(
