A year has past..and today I'm no longer a teenAfter meeting up in town and shopped a little with Jamie for jeans..we met Mich and Baoxin, roamed around town because we couldn't decide where to go for dinner, before I finally picked up the courage to once again suggest bringing them to this Indian restaurant..the idea was obviously not very popular with them but after much work, I finally persuaded Jamie to drive all of us down for some really good Indian cuisine! Tian's parents brought us to Vansh once on their wedding anniversary and I enjoyed the dining experience there so much that I have to bring the girls there! So Jamie was very reluctant because she's not a fan of Indian food (neither am I!!) but in the end I still made the girls walk all the way from Paragon to International Building where Jamie's car was parked..and we made a short road trip down to Stadium Waterfront!
My
20th birthday @
Vansh with my favourites

The decor and cushions are so pretty! See Jamie's blog (soon) for more photos on details..especially the food. She practically took pictures of all the dishes and from different angles too haha, our true blue photo whore. She was snapping away even before we stepped into the restaurant haha. And so we ate and everyone liked the food!! Yayyyy I decided to give them a treat too, I have no idea why I'm feeling so generous, maybe because I made them travel all the way down to Kallang to try some Indian cuisine which they have not heard of, and it's all because I want them to be able to enjoy some unique food that I got to try..you know, share the love!! So I guess the happiest part of this birthday was making the girls happy, letting them have this unique experience of enjoying Indian food in a restaurant with very nice ambience.

Dearies Mich and Baoxin. See our $30 lobster at the bottom left hand corner of the photo? That's the most expensive dish for the night haha.

Birthday girl with Jamie. Oh ya did I mention that my dearest girlfriend has lost so much weight..and we used to wear the same size of jeans..then she got one size smaller than me..and now it's 3 sizes smaller than me! When we were at Guess earlier trying on jeans, standing beside her in a pair of skinny jeans made me look totally obese and huge beside her ok. I have such fatty thighs which really makes shopping for jeans so hard..and it's even worse when I'm standing beside my dear girl. Goodness..haha even Jordan said I put on weight, and that's no surprise because I'm not exercising anymore and sitting down at my table the whole day makes it even worse =p. Don't worry, I'll definitely exercise more after the exams, I shall get rid of tt chunk of fat that has been threatening to spill out of my jeans. It's gross I know. I can't take it myself.

The 4 of us with our very good Indian food! My treat!

Baoxin is stunned =|

Did I mention that it totally rocks now that one of us has got a car? Yeap Jamie rocks, and I lovee road trips haha..be it a short one from town to Kallang. I like the feeling of all of us being in a car and able to talk at the top of our voices and laugh all we want, and wait till Betty and Ness comes back for holidays, we can all squeeze into Jamie's pretty Colt!

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to you ladies again for taking time out to spend this day with me..and also to make me smile, if not I'd have mugged my birthday away. It's amazing how you day can change from morning to afternoon to the evening..just in one day I have experienced so many moods - panicked, then calmed down, then came sadness, and tears when Mich called, then laughter broke out..and more laughter till now..thank you to you guys for making today a happy day for me. I was really that close to not coming out for dinner. =) Thanks Jamie and Mich. You know how much I appreciate you guys..and thank you to my missing favourite girls (you know who you are..) and friends for your well wishes which poured in the morning while I was having tutorials so I had to delay replies and might have forgotten to reply.
Back home..2nd celebration

Tian's photog skills is going down the drain =p. Both family shots were dark on the top, most probably because his hand was covering the flash or sth. tsk. Anyway the story for tonight is that initially, I was not supposed to get to eat my favourite mango cake from Hilton this birthday because no one can make a trip down to town to buy it for me. My mum was going to get a cake from Jurong Point on her way home from work. Then, Tian found out about it and secretly collaborated with my sisters - smsed Jacinta to ask her to tell my mum not to get the cake because he was going to get the mango cake from me. And today, I was not going to meet him because he has 2 CA papers tomorrow and T/F questions are a headache so he really had to study. And I really thought I'm not able to meet him at all! But all the while he was planning to surprise me at my place with the mango cake! No wonder he kept calling me during my dinner with the girls, asking what I'm doing and how I'm getting home. I told him I was going to take the MRT (which was perfect for him to carry out his surprise) but in the end Jamie dropped Bx and I in town so I took bus 7 heading to Clementi. Bus 7 passes by Tian's place and in the end he could not carry out his secret mission because it'd be quite silly if he drives to my house alone while I take a long time to get home by bus. So in the end I alighted at his place and he drove us to my place. =) Long story haha. And I didn't find out about his secret mission till we reached my house and he took out the Hilton mango cake from the car boot!! I was so pleasantly surprised and really touched by his efforts..this is probably his most successful mission to surprise me, since I'm always so sharp and quick =p.

The love of my life..gosh I actually got to see him today. =) My birthday is finally complete. His mum bought the cake for him because she was dropping by Orchard, lucky him haha. I received an SMS from his mum this afternoon wishing me happy birthday, and I immediately called him to ask him if he told his mum about my birthday but he said no. For that afternoon I was still thinking "wahh how come Auntie remembers my birthday..", but of course it's because she helped to buy the cake for me. See la..Tian bluffed me and I actually didn't see through his bluff. =p

The naughty, cheeky, stubborn and loud little boy, who used to smile so innocently when he was a little baby. Now he's into acting cool and giving all those weird faces in front of the camera. Anyway he's still little, always craving attention from all of us because he's really quite lonely at home in the day, but he speaks like anyone of us, arguing with us as though he's 10 or sth. So yes, a small boy with a loud voice.


My sister had a good time taking these photos. And after that, they were laughing non-stop because of the transition.

Greedy Tian eyeing the best mango cake in town. I'm so glad he got his mum to buy it for me, I've been wanting this cake for my birthday since many months ago and Tian knows it =). I always like it for my family to enjoy delicious cakes from everywhere. I bought the Awfully Chocolate cake for them last Mothers' day, and I love to see everyone enjoying what I enjoy the most - cakes! hahaha..I haev a really sweet tooth.

Picture perfect..you & me. Once again you made me smile..and I can never thank you enough for everything you've done for me. I love you so so much.
I hope my wishes will come true.
