Celene's "Kiss by a Rose" 21st Birthday party!

A very belated post indeed. Last week was a little mad with a lot of meet-ups with different groups of people, there was Roy's birthday dinner, Tian's sister's birthday dinner, Die Hard 4.0 + Transformers, JC class gathering and also a lot of time spent in front of my favourite iBook working on my VIP aka vacation internship progamme report which I finally submitted on Sunday night. Also, I submitted my SEP aka student exchange programme application a little past 12 midnight this morning, with KTH, Stockholm being my first choice so PLS ACCEPT ME!!! Living in Sweden for 6 months in winter would be a little mad due to the cost and cold, plus I'll be away from Tian for the longest time ever but I'm sure the experience would be pretty amazing. Plus I'm mapping some of my gross-est core modules over, things like Biomedical Electronics & Systems, I can do it at KTH on pass/fail basis so that's a life-saver! That module is almost confirm a B or lower and I would not want to take it to drag my CAP even lower. So yes, the feeling of finishing my report and having SEP settled for now is shiok. I feel like I'm free finally and I'm actually reading a book now!

It was a gorgeous and classy affair at Celene's home 2 saturday nights ago, where she celebrated her sweet 21st with her loving family, many of her medical friends, her closest St Nicks girlfriends and RJ friends. There was delicious food from Marmalade Group, great vocals by Ngak and partner (omg I'm never been to Timbre and it was my first time listening to Ngak sing, honestly, he's sounds so good la, way better than the Indochine singer, it's like you can just watch him sing all night and develop a major crush on him. He's cute too. =p), and there's the beautiful custom-made three-tiered chocolate cake from Canele, which is tastefully decorated with red roses and petals. The chocolate was really rich and I spotted some guys helping themselves to more than one serving of the cake! Celene's house was also decorated with pink and silver balloons all over, held down by pretty purple balloon weights. It was a beautiful night with great company.







Just one of Celene's birthday present from a group of medical guys. No, not from Jerry, Wenkien, Zhenjin and Tian. Definitely not haha. The book reads "Positions of The Day" and the guys were just fascinated with the book, checking out the positions of their birthdays. 2nd part of the present was a singing dick. YES. It doesn't look gross though, more like comical because it has eyes and wore a black cap and red vest. And it is impossible to make out what it is actually singing. The girls had much fun teasing one another with the toy.





The huge bouquet of 99 roses from Daryl to Celene on her birthday! Not forgetting the lovely white Marc Jacobs couple watch. =)


I didn't know she took such a cute shot of the bunny! Still unnamed that night, this was another of Cel's present. A female bunny to accompany Cel's Frankie, a male bunny from Daryl but obviously it's a big rabbit now. I remembered we thought of the name Franchesca but it was a little too long for a pet bunny. It's a fur ball! Super adorable! Note Celene's french manicure...if only guys appreciate the beauty of manicured nails as much as I do. =p







Celene's family. I almost teared when Celene thanked her mum. It was very touching, and I'm anvious I guess. Between me and my mum, it's like..unspoken love. I never told her I love her, but show in indirect ways such as buying her clothes, bags and treating her to good food at fancy restaurants. I just can't say it to her, I don't know why.


Daryl, who drove Celene to tears when he specially sang a song for her, in front of all her friends and family. And I saw the way he looked at her when he was singing to her. I really don't know how to describe it. I think the word is Love.



Celene with the medicine girls and Aimei.



A whole lot of medicine guys.



Celene and her brother's friends. I think it's her brother's band, in fact.


About 22 of us shared a T&C heart-shaped lock necklace and a big easel for her. I'm sure it'll be put into great use. She's one talented and amazing artist, future doctor, and friend. Hearts.


All smiles after a long, lovely day...
