Lovely lovely friends.

What happened to me after my colleagues made me some drinks.
♥Bid Farewell
Paiseh I know its been 5 days already since my birthday and I still want to talk about it.
Don't mind right?
People are still trying to celebrate my birthday with me like wei wei and menny last night, my colleagues and Nat later.
Nat can you please stop feeling bad about forgetting its really ok cus I forget birthdays too.
If you happen to read this and apologize more than once I'm just going to taekwando kick you.
Just kidding.
For some reason Menny and I were feeling a bit low last night, (Menny is it because you knew you and weiwei are going to give me a treat? =p) even though the food at Brewerkz was so good!
We shared lamb stew, Brewerkz pizza, chicken satay and two pints of ale.
Though I'm not a drinker I kind of like the mildly sweet aftertaste of Brown ale.
Good free food + free beer => Happy me!
After Brewerkz we went to Chocolate Factory for a slice of Black Forest cake (omg.. yummy..) and we sang a birthday song (for the 5th time I think but still fun!).
We chilled out there and had some girl talk with the new circle of trust.
Later on after they left I waited for my colleagues to end work to chill with them.
I was quite excited to try flaming lambo for the first time(for my birthday, again) and see whether I could get high.
The taste was quite nice, the flaming part tasted kind of mild and when they poured the milk in it was quite shiok la.
I was waiting, waiting for the high to kick in.
My colleagues too, watching to see if I was turning red or what.
We kept checking the time to see when it'll happen and after ten minutes about there they decided that it was not strong enough.
To encourage the alcohol flow they recommended that I drink some beer.
So I drank.. and waited.
After half an hour, still nothing.
What a major disappointment.
To think that the server looked at me and said 'she's drinking ar? Confirm die la.'
Because nothing happened to me they decided to go back to the bar where they work to make something for me.
I have no idea what Anil made but it was quite effective.
By the time I finished half the glass my face felt red and I could hear blood pulsing through my veins..
I was so sleepy.
But NO HIGH FEELING.
Damn whoever said that alcohol will make you high.

Happy birthday to me!
For people who forgot to drop me an sms to wish me happy birthday (like Nat) pls do so within a week and send a big present as soon as possible before the friendship ends.
Just kidding.
I just had my Best Birthday celebration Ever in my life.
Birthdays are always just another day and I dislike knowing that celebrations and preparations are wasting the time of my friends.
Hence I have extremely low expectations on my birthday;
Say you pick up a flower on the side of the road, wrapped it in toilet paper and attach it with a nice note I'll be damn happy already.
I had dance lessons at PA on the 18th Sept and reached TH at around 11 plus at night.
When I reached hall I had to collect some money for the block comm, do some shit (can't remember what exactly..) and pack my room.
Somehow I was lured to k's room by k and sneaky roommate HS.
I expected them to have a cake and some presents maybe in his room but there was nothing la..
K told a super long nonsensical story about my 'present' which doesn't exist and subsequently presented a mooncake and a lighter but no candle. -_-"
Actually when K and HS were busy telling me the nonsensical story I kept asking them to let me go back to my room and continue this later but they just plain refused and refused and refused.
At that point my bowels were threatening to embarrass me haha.
When they finally agreed to walk me back to HS and I's room I think I was already dripping cold sweat.
The best part is when I opened my door my OG was waiting inside in the dark with my birthday cake.
=)
What a nice surprise.
While singing the birthday song I kept glancing sideways to see if any lazy bones were resting against my bed and it made me nervous
<- Sorry for being anti-climax.
Back to the celebration, I really appreciate the efforts of Kevin, Huishan, Shimin and Jeslyn for getting the cake and coordinating everything.
I feel loved and very gay typing that.
Its a nice warm fuzzy feeling knowing that you're important enough for people to make the effort making a normal day special for you.
Thank you everyone for sms-ing me and remembering, it had been a very special normal day.

Since I rarely blog anymore I shall try to make this longer..
So many things happened that I don't know how to start.
The nursing course is not easy I know that I'm very much behind my hardworking classmates but I'm always deluding myself that it is otherwise.
In fact, I'm as nua/ even more nua than K, my nua-est friend in TH.
When I just moved into TH, I thought I should get a priorities right so I made a list:
1. Studies + Family
2. Dance/ Hall
3. Friends
4. Sleep
and a 'Do Not' list which I won't put here to embarrass myself.
Now the sequence of the priorities is just exactly opposite and the list just serves to amuse people when they first see it.
After I come back from hall activities/ slacking and start to look at books I simply fall asleep.
This procrastination will ultimately be my downfall..
Someone pls slap me/ pull my ear and ask me to study.
Haven't been going home that frequently too which makes me feel really guilty because I know my family miss me, especially my parents and little cute brother.
The other day when I was home for a few hours my little brother asked me how come I wasn't home and he told me he missed me a lot.
I melted into a puddle on the floor.
Guess I should stop being lazy and go home more often.
I haven't been meeting up with friends from TJ too. =(
I'm really sorry to Nat and Aik Hong and Weiwei and Menny and Wanfong and Stacey and even Jeslyn for not being able to spend time with them.
I miss my soccer friends too.
Lujia and diana and simin and yas and sheryl where are you??
Really very sad.
Same as in hall.
Sorry there's not enough time to continue, take care everyone
=)
Love.
♥Bid Farewell
