i'm finally back to blog about my sweetest seventeeth birthday.
okay, i'm really sorry about the delay. sorry sorry sorry. (:
after this post, perhaps after the tests or something then i'll blog.
hm, maybe a few posts in between la. haha. i don't know.
okay, let's start. lol, this 17th birthday of mine seemed to carry on for days.
i blew 4 cakes and cut 4 cakes in all. lol.
the celebration kicked off on thursday, 9/11/06.
school was great and everything. we had maths lecture from 8-10am and then according to the timetable, we're supposed to have 2 hours break and then come back for an hour of chem lecture and that would be the end of the day.
so, usually, on thursdays, we'd go out and eat breakfast. we usually go to kap Macs.
putri sayangg and brandon didn't go to school that day.
so after lecture, ann suggested that we go to bukit panjang plaza to eat at swensens instead of Macs.
i didn't expect anything, seriously. lol. was pretty cool to go there to eat cos i've never been to bukit panjang plaza before.
lol, in the end qing said she was meeting up with her friend for awhile to take something from her. lol.
they were acting fishy already. ahaha.
and then, she came back with a small little mango cake and i was super touched. lol.
we all ate nice spaghetti and then in the end, we lost track of time so we didn't go back for chem lecture in the end. lol.
so, we went our separate ways after that.
just before i end this section, i just wanna say, i love my 2 girls so much. really. thank you! :D

then at night,
it was double celebration, cos ren and i were celebrating both our sweet 17s. :)
yes, it's ren, my childhood friend from like p3 till now. lol.
we finally met up! :D
his birthday was on 1/11/06 so we celebrated both our birthdays together.
we went to harbourfront centre first, went to see my mom and then we went to eat sakae sushi! ehehehe.
we ate and talked about so much. it's amazing to see how much you've learned and changed.
i'm glad to say that i'm really proud of you, ren. (:
we ate till we were full but still up for dessert. lol.
ren paid for our meals, which i didn't like, but he insisted since he said he didn't get me anything for my birthday while i did.
i still thought it was sweet. :)
after that, we went to vivo city to eat haagen dazzzzz! :D
yummyy! so we took the 2 scoops ice cream with 2 toppings of choice.
lol. ren ordered green tea and he said he wanted banana and caramel for toppings.
for some reason, i found it super funny and the people who knew his order were like laughing.
i was laughing non stop! lol.
in the end he changed the order but it was still a good laugh.
for this, he also paid for my portion. stubborn boy.
oh well. lol. :D
then it was late and all the shops were closing. ren sent me home though he had work the next day. ((:
ren promised me that he'll go back to vivo city with me one day to play water. lol.
anyway, i really enjoyed that time with him. (:
ren, thank you. *big hugs! :D
saturday, 11th of november 2006.
my birthday! :p
my family and i woke up super early and headed to sentosa with darling pingg as well.
i swam with the dolphins and i was a reallllllllllllyyyyyyyyy happy girl! :D
it was an amazing experience, i'll never ever forget it.
we then played the luge and sat the skylifts a few times before it started raining heavily. lol.
very fun too! :D
then we headed to vivo city to eat earle swensens! :D
woah! the food was really amazing! i had a free cake from them for my birthday. :D
we ate happily and they sang a birthday song when the cake came. (:
eating there was incredible, being with my family and my bestie there, made it unforgettable. (:
after that we headed home cos i needed to get ready to go to church. (:
so i left for church after getting ready and everything and then after service, my cellmates and leaders all surprised lynn(another november baby :D) and me with a really nice cake and cards with msges written by all of them to us. so sweet can! :D lol, they prayed for us too and i love you all. thank you for planning all this. :) hhehehe.
after that, lizz, ling and i met daniel chia and eugene sin at the church bus stop, then we took a bus to Mad Jack's. :D
rosalin was already there, and then gonaidi daddy, wanling and pingg arrived and then followed by crenshaw. :D
the food was good and the company was definitely greater than anything else.
when i sat there, the thoughts that filled my mind were "i am so blessed to have all of them around me on that day to celebrate with me."
gonaidi daddy, wanling and pingg bought a mango cake for me and Mad Jacks dimmed the lights as the people there brought out the cake with the lighted candles and the birthday song came along. (:
and after a good time together, we headed our separate ways.
i went home and there was another cake awaiting me.
lol, pingg went home with me. lol. (:
it was a really sweet time with my family. then opening of the presents which overall, was an amazing way to end the day. (:
sunday 12/11/06,
i met emm, karen and lynette for lunch at swensens to celebrate emm's and my birthday. LOL. i ate at swensens 3 times in that week. but the food's still good.
it was a nice time of catching up. (: thank you! :D
