Hint

Felicia, in great excitement this year, told me she saw something with the 'right' feel to it.

Guess what is it?

A musical box! A really really small musical box. I have to turn the crank myself, plays happy birthday!

it's really sweet. Thanks! (She's in India now!)

My parents gave me a multi faceted white gold ear ring, muahaha. matches my necklace, now i got a full set.

Thanks ma and pa.

My rotten brother gave me nothing.Possibly out of revenge for whatever it is. Bloody innocent.

Belicia asked me to give her a hint of what i want

i thought really long and hard.

You know, if you give me this, you guys can forfeit a birthday gift for the next 26 years.

Really,

I want a BONIA bag.

Not the fake one.

I want the one newest arrival, black and white patterns.

And... if you guys are really going to the pimple doctor tomorrow

Then i think i deserve it!

Give me a Bonia bag!

$260!!!

*Guffaws!*

Birthday

Just today, I decided that it was finally time for me to be 18.

Everyone in the group is 18.

Of course, decades from now, I'll be remarkably happy because everyone is 40 while I am 39.

But no matter. Not too long ago, I walked past a shop called 'S.E.X in the city.'

'Strict admittance: 18 and above

I burst out laughing while my brother scrowled.

The freedom of 18!

Any any way.

I can only remember from secondary 3 onwards.

Secondary 3: Hospital



Just after recovery from lupus a year back. However, I had Chicken pox on december, and had to cancel a birthday party i was having. That's cheeyew outside the window. He can't come in, for all the good it did him, because he still caught it in the end.In lieu with my request he got me a little keychain with my name on it and a puppy. The nurses came in with their masks and sang me a song. lol, it was very akward for me.My docter came in and told me not to eat egg, so I did not eat much of a cake. Gradma cooked mee sua. Very nice!

Secondary 4: Penang


just recovered the following year. For some reason, on my birthday, we are always on a holiday. Here we are in penang, me and my brother, my hair freshly rebonded as a gift.:) Friends, this is the famed gurney drive. Excellent food. Did not blow any cake.

JC1: USA


USA! We went to Sea World on my birthday. I grumpily thanked my father for bringing me to Time sharing, where we endured 2 hours of harrassing for the sake of a cheap ticket in. (We will do so again for universal studio and disney) Like, it was horrible.Particularly since all of them have been trained with the same sales pitch, trying to say 'touching things' like what's the most important thing in life, from which you are supposed to sniff and answer 'Family' and thus make the tenuous leap that family= buying timeshare. Unfortunately, my pop is a CYNIC, so what he said was , rather nonchalently, was 'making money.' The poor lady is inflexible, so she repeated the question again, until I had to provide the correct one for her to move on.Went to watch Shamu, which was SO boring as compared to the last time i went USA, where Shamu was really talented. Now, they boost 3 'movable' TV which will swerve and present nice pictues, rather than Shamu. When shamu does appear, he has apparently risen to the status of GOD because the presentation was BLOODY cheesy. The trainer is supposedly this young boy who met shamu in the majestic ocean at sunrise while doing a wooden carving of a whale's tail, and then he poped up as this handsome man who reunites with Shamu in an aquarium. He called a random kid up and passed her the wooden tail as a 'keepsake' to become a whale trainer with shamu at her side and she solemnly swear to do so. Later, I notice in the shop they sold the wooden whale tail for US $7 in the souvenir shop. Go figure.

I am a cynic too. Damn.


The bimbos later gave me a pink bag and a wand? when i returned. I thought i better mentioned this or they'll kill me. Celebrated it with Fizz, whose birthday falls on an exam date, including this year. Haha. I think we'll celebrate it together again this year, babe!


6 more days! Shall watch M18 shows to celebrate!They is another possibility that i will whisk away from singapore on my birthday. I want to blow a cake, damn it! Missed it for 3 years! (3 years worth of wishes)

Prom

I sit here rotting my ass off waiting for some blog savvy person to blog about prom, but apparently EVERYONE else thinks the same way as me.

hmph

If I can upload the photos i will blog yea.

Let's try...



Here, the 5 beauties. (wow, i succeeded)

Fizz looks like a guiness advertisement gal here, very sexy and poised. Belicia looks pretty, but in every picture you will notice she keeps her head in that shy/sweet gal pose which is a little more than annoying after a while. (lol) Mas is our wedding bride, and Van is the hot babe on the beach. Me is in black. OMG.

Blogger takes a really long time to load the pictures. (chiawyee runs off to do other things)



Oh, its done.
These are the appetizers of the table.Look at belicia's head. Blogger is really taking TOO long. grumbles.



The less than appetising main course of the table. I will NEVER order such food on my wedding day: flaccid, barely edible stuff that caused a bomb. Want to talk about the paradox of life? High class hotel food is one of them. Urk. Made constant offer to trade with mas and Fizz, whose muslim meal looks more than palatable. They politely decline.

Here's another wait.

teddle dum dum. Very very long.



this is Philana, the rocker gal. Though you can't see it, she's wearing boots. To prom. On the extreme right is Shuyi, looking very pretty. Belicia, in sotto voice, told us that shuyi is going to come in specs without make up. BULLSHIT. She's really pretty. Look at Bel's head.



My Evil Twin and Suang. To my delight, they found me out of the hordes of glittering dresses and suits. When asked how, they chirped 'we were looking for that posture you know!And we saw it, plus you were looking disdainfully at your food. Can't be anyone else!' I suspect the word Mistress hung upon their lips, but they thankfully did not say it. On yee apparently tried to escape without make up, but was wrestled to the toilet by sharon and philana, who dabbed it on her. Evil twiny, you looked great. Why resist? ;)




My English princess sharon. sharon will be a great pianist one day, God bless her, and she had just mastered 'Point of no return.' Good for her. My own talented brother has repeatedly rebuff my attempts to make him learn for his sister. Lousy git. Do not speak Singlish to sharon though. she hates it with a vengeance.




Here's the TSD fellows. All mad to the bone with not a drop of sanity in them. But who cares, it is to them, ironically, that i kept my sanity in the ridiculous school. Love you guys!



This is my TSD group, from which I share fond memories and hardship. i understand Van is a fan of Nicole, the one in a sexy black dress. (No, NOT me) and Allison, who is in a sexy pink dress (Very very obvious). We are deceptively sane at the moment. Come on guys!




Much better. Here you can see echoes of our ghostly self: the bear, the soldier, the unicorn, harry potter and the mistree, 5 year old amy. Match the characters accordingly lol. No prizes for guessing.

Ok, i have quite enough! Patience is never my strongest virtue, and this whole segment has made me wait long enough. For more pictures, do go to belly side. I believed she will be far more hardworking than i am. (please, notice her head.)

It was a fairytale night.

Prom Dress

Oh boy oh boy oh boy.

I heard our 2 tai tais are going for manicure tomorrow.

Manicure. What a luxury.

I've more or less prepared for prom-- unknown to my friends i have only purchase my prom dress today since the previous one was deemed 'too casual' by many people.

And i have chosen a colour i usually abhor to.

Yes, dearies, it is NOT pink.

I am amaze at myself.

Will be interesting to see how we all turn out from prom.

I hope no one wears the same dress as me.

Now I think all i need is a necklace.
