I am pretty impress with myself. I have been posting pretty often heh.
I am officially 27 24 ( what am i talking about, I have remained 24 years old since I celebrated my 24 birthday) and today is still my birthday, my lunar birthday, haha. And of cos it also marked the beginning of 2010. It has been a week of eating celebrations! I am tired but feeling loved haha. Yes yes I have this thing about feeling loved. Monday kicked start the first of the birthday feasts.. met up with Daphne, Louise and Soofang at Si Chuan Dou Hua after work. It was great company and conversation. As usual.. I did my duty as an only friend to Daphne. What others missed out, I, the only friend, saw the opportunity, zoomed in and presented it to her/them haha. So yeah, even though I might not have supply, I seeked out supplies for her hahaha. Anyway the thing about Si Chuan Dou hua is that apart from good food, they have cute plate!
My miniature birthday cake in the pretty birthday plate! But the cake wasn't that nice.. FYI, my friends, I like the chocolate espresso banana cake from Cedele hahahaah. But I still do appreciate your thoughts and efforts kay. Love you girls! =)
And I got a small coach wallet from Daphne and Louise, cos apparently mine is old, heh which is very true. My coach wallet has become dirty and old.. heh, it seemed that recently I have been quite into Coach, I now officially owned 2 wristlets, 2 handbags, 1 wallet (birthday gift!) and 1 skinny... hmmz... it is not that many right? But I got them all in 2009! *gasps*
On a side note, i took my the other bag out last evening, and finally told the bf how much it cost me. He almost spit out the tea that he was drinking halfway hhaha. If not becos of him insisting to put my bag with him so that I can sit more comfortably in my chair for dinner and end up with him squeezing my bag, I wouldn't have told him the cost to make my point that please stop torturing my bag!! haha
Okie., back to my birthdays feasting.. tuesday was with Yishan and Echo. Have chilli crabs at Jumbo! I think we have chilli crabs overdosed. I am swearing off Jumbo for quite a long while.. We have decided to go somewhere else for Yishan's birthday. Headed back to Echo's condo to nuah, have good chz tea and look at the resort view from her apartment. After talking to Echo, I feel quite ashame of myself. I really should spend less and save more. I need to be serious about my finances! And that shall be my new year resolution !! Got a handcream from Ms Lee for my birthday, e nice babe actually jst got back from Genting and then headed to gym in e morning and meeting me for dinner... I am so impress with her! I have been thinking and thinking and thinking and thinking of exercising.. the only exercise I been getting is my brain thinking about it. Okie crappy.
Pretty pretty! (Okie I have a habit of taking photos of my prezzies. The reason why I didnt post up Daffy & Lulu prezzie is cos I can't do justice to the wallet when I take the photos...)
And it is japanses food on Wednesday! Went to catch Alvin and the Chickmunks with Qh, then headed to Sun & Moon for dinner. It was very nice =) I have been guilty of spending not enough time with my fav friend. Sigh, I need to stop being 1 of those girls that just focus on the bf bleah. Another new year resolution, spend more time (either on phone or physically) with my friends! But then again, with e possibility of me changing job, I think that might be very hard to do. But I promise I will try. And in times of trouble, I will definitely be there!
Got my 3rd blue box from Qh that night! Blue box! Nothing beats the blue box! (okie dun let the bf hear this, he will be sad haha)
My third blue box! The first one was from Liling & Leonard for my 21st birthday. Yes Liling, I still have the pair of earrings. I never lose them =) And the 2nd was the one from QH last year, and now I got a pair of dangling earrings from her. Per QH, the reason why it is dangling and not studs, it is cos she is worried that I will lose the studs. I am such a klutz. -_-
After dinner, headed over to Hilton, when I got my 2nd birthday cake.. and the lounge singer actually sang me a birthday song... And then a sign of old age... even before 12am, I was yawning away and telling QH let's go home. Bleah. And my only friend was partying hard at Zouk! Where has my energy level go to? I slept at 12ish-1 am on my birthday! OMG!!!!
And.. finally it is the actual day! It was actually quite rush and uncertain for me. Something crop up in his family.. so plans were put on hold and changed. But in the end, it was still all good.. caught Avatar 3D. It was pretty awesome.. the graphics etc... It was kind of a scientific/fantasy type of movie. Daphne wrote down her thoughts on the movie and I shall share a quick one too. What I felt was a kind of colonalism again. The white man dominating the indigenous people, how doing things to "better their lifes", giving them education etc, and of cos at the end of it, it was all for money. As Jake said in the movie, there is nothing they have that the indigenious people want! They are very happy with what they have, what beer etc who cares about that! It just made me think, those red indians and other indigenious people. They were probably very happy with their own lifes and cultures and then the white man came thinking themselves as superior and justifying what they do by saying it is to better their lifes. I guess in terms of technology and standard of living, the indigenious people might not be as good as the white man. But honestly, they are happy, so why should people force other people to live what they deemed as good? It also reminded me of something my history tutor told us. The Malays were happily leaving in their fishing village many many many years ago... and suddenly other people came in, the Europeans, the chinese etc. And they were forced to change their lifestyle to suit the fast-pace life. It was fishing no more, fishing is slow and lazy, u got to do business, trade blah blah. And their lifestyle was looked down upon. But before all this happen, they were just very happy fishing people. It was their culture and nature. Okie.. enuff blabbering.. back to presents!
I got this for my birthday!
I really like the pendant... heh actually I already suspected I will be getting a pendant + white-gold necklace for my birthday. Cos... as I was packing my stuff , I realise i lost my white gold necklace was pretty upset and niaming to him that I need to go buy one.. he told me to wait till after new year. Cos will have sales afte 01/01/2010. Seriouslyyyyyyyyyyyy hahaha. So yep, but the pendant is really nice! But I whine that the flowers is too small.. other people got bigger wan.. and of cos he told me he purposely choose 3 stalks cos got meaning wan..... *roll eyes* 99 stalks also got meaning! Reminded me of what hanyang told the gf when he proposed that time hahah. Okie i shall not complain heh. Then of cos my birthday cake:
We actually cut the cake at T3. Dinner was supposed to be at Fairmount/Swissotel there.. but due to the family emergency.. we got to change to the airport. Oh well... I told him I will let him make it up to me and bring me to Equinox next time=)
Count down was spent at ECP. Yes Daphne I went to see the flares again. THe flares this year was much nicer than last year. I realise the position is better. We were at BK that side, the flares were really pretty, got a lot, unlike last year... .
And today is my lunar birthday! And I am waiting to eat crabs (yesh, again) with Hanyang and Eileen.. sigh, wonder if I will get my mian xian also. Sometimes it is hard between being understanding and wanting more.. *shrug* anyway at least I will be having crabs *yeah* Poor Eileen & Hanyang, hahahha.
Tomorrow is 2nd Jan and also the wedding dinner of our dear friend, Louise. Going to meet the Melbourne gang for K-lunch first.. and sunday is Jiazhen baby's first month and then off to meet Liling and Leonard for dinner. I really need to exercise and not just think!!!!!
