I TURNED 18! Part 2.

I had finished editing all the pictures by Tuesday(super fast of me right?) but I didn’t update till today simply because…

I FELL SICK!

Very poor thing right, falling sick the week right after my birthday…

I went to school on Monday despite having a terrible flu and slight sore throat, but by Tuesday morning I was coughing and feeling so feverish, (though the flu has stopped) and thus went to the doctor.

The kind doctor gave me MC for 2 days, not too bad lah, hehe.

Although I was staying home that 2 days to rest I decided not to blog because I didn’t had to mood to do so. My head was aching too badly I couldn’t type anything.

It was so weird, I have all the symptoms of a fever and feel exactly like how one would feel when down with a fever, but I just don’t have fever!

The dreadful illness must be due to the huge amount of unhealthy fried food I gorged on my birthday lor! Plus the recent bad rainy weather!!! Tsk tsk tsk…

Anyway, after the little celebration in school that Friday(my birthday), I went home excitedly to change and prepare before meeting up all my good friends!!!

So nice to just have your best friends, the people whom you know would never betray you, celebrating your birthday with you.


Alice took this picture while I was on the phone.

We headed to Han River at Eastpoint for dinner.

Just having to warn you, Han River is completely NOT WORTH IT AT ALL!!!

I don’t know about their charge for lunchtime, but the dinner charge was unacceptable! The nett price for each person was roughly $26, which was OK for buffet restaurants.

However, since it’s buffet, shouldn’t the drinks be free flow?! They had an additional charge for drinks, which was $10 per jug for soft drinks, and each jug can fill up only 7 cups! (Mind you the cups were filled with ice some more, so drink only few mouths empty already lor!)

They don’t serve ice water either, so its either you order their expensive drinks or don’t drink!

And nope, it’s not some high-class buffet restaurant lor, it’s just like Seoul Garden just with slightly bigger variety and it’s not so smoky… Well, that’s one good point lah.

Ok, I should stop complaining.




Sushi very neatly arranged by Alice.

Suddenly very hungry, feel like eating pasta. Very random I know. I wanna learn how to make pasta leh, just not those normal boring ones that, er-hem, my elder sister cook lah(I hope she doesn't read this).

I think I make a good cook, got proof one hor!


Cooking sotong.

Don’t see me smiley smiley like very unprofessional like that, I am a professional chef ok!!!




Nice?!

Ok lah may not look that good but it tastes very nice one lor!!! I put extra extra lots of butter so it’s super yummy! It’s not too hard nor soft, just nice, very chewy and tender… HAHAHA!


Very happy to try out my cooking.


Very happy to eat also…


Coewe and Sheryl again.

Erm… I think I kinda over did Sheryl’s eyes in the above picture, but whatever, it’s sexy.


Alice took that picture of me taking a picture of her. Ok I know it’s complicating.

Anyway, remember the fear factor game that me and my similar group of friends played last year during my birthday at a buffet restaurant as well?

We did it again! Ha!

Behold…



FEAR FACTOR 2!

Each of us were to pick food items from the wide spread of buffet and hide it in a cup. No raw or inedible items were allowed.

The cups were later jumbled up and randomly hand out back to us, whatever you receive will be your fear factor!

First up!


Coewe very happy to eat lemon and chilli.




Poor Sheryl.




Fail!


SO EASY LOR!!!



Last but not least:



LOL!

I was the only one who fail leh! I really HATE tomatoes and I just couldn’t swallow it!

I bravely hurled one into my mouth thinking “so small one die one lah”. But as soon as I started chewing… the gross taste of the tomato burst into my mouth!!!

It tastes like a sugarless grape with a more vegetable-ish taste. I hate it completely… After suffering much vomiting sensations while trying hard to swallow my fear factor, I spat it all out.

I was then told to eat a slice of star fruit instead. Walau eh, just as gross but I managed to swallow it this time.


”Ice-cream cake!”

Alice and Gloria went to get the entire Han River to sing me a birthday song, literally! All the staffs were around, and even the neighboring tables were singing leh! MADNESS I TELL YOU!


(:

I was very embarrassed and shy but at the same time very happy as well! Thank you Alice for your crazy brilliant idea! (:


Sheryl playing with food.


Your fear factor.

After having the dinner we started camwhoring right outside the door of Eastpoint. People must be thinking we are mad.


With BS! BS P/S: WHEN WE MAKING OUR NEXT VIDEO HUHHHH?!


With EDAIJ!!!

Awww, I so love this EDAIJ picture! Because it has been such a LONG time since we take a picture altogether!!! So sweet right, just like a family photo… Must take at least once a year.


ALICEGATOR!

And not forgetting a group photo of all of us!


Happy people!

By then it was getting late so it was time to hit the club!

Sadly, Coewe and Sheryl didn’t come along but we still had fun! In fact, LOTS of fun!!! One of the happiest days of my 18 years of living lor! (:

There was some game event going on at the club and we will each be appointed a sticker tag with the most random word ever.


Krinz should be Wonderwoman or something, so we are all superheroes!!


HAHA! NIPPLE!!!

Ok, abrupt ending of birthday pictures.


My presents!

Ignore my extremely messy table. This is actually nothing, my room is 15 times messier than what you see.

Till now I haven’t open all the presents though I know what they are already. Don’t wanna destroy the wonderful wrappings mah…

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!!! And Deidrea your present is extremely sweet. (: Not gonna tell you people what the presents are. Hehe.

That blue and black present on the left is from my 11-year-old sister.


Cute hor?

Thanks ah Karin I love you, but I still won’t let you use the computer to play your stupid Audition, MWAHAHAHAHAHA! I’m evil.

I LOVE MY 18 BIRTHDAY! It’s so fucking awesome!

Ok I shall end my post with a very gross candid picture of myself. Super ugly one.


HAHAHA!

I LOOK LIKE MONSTER LOR! Deidrea took that picture the other day when I wasn’t noticing. The only reason for me to post that picture is cause I like my hair in it! But my face, walau eh! Completely ugly plus fat!!

Anyhow, here’s something random… It is time I should start saving up!

I’m going to be absolutely broke soon! I am not the kind of people who claims they are broke but yet they still have a couple hundred dollars in their bank, I’M REALLY B-R-O-K-E, BROKE LOR!

Sigh.

Also I must stop biting my tremendously short nails. I’m going nail-less soon, I feel alienish. I feel as if I have ET’s fingers! Terrible.

One last thing before I go, HAPPY TEACHER’S DAY TO ALL THE KIND TEACHERS OUT THERE!

Happy teacher’s day devilish Mr Jason, godly Mr Vince, wise Uncle Ee and all the other animation teachers!

Not forgetting my secondary school teachers such as the arty farty Mrs Lai and bitchy Mrs McGrath and our super motherly CLB teacher, oh and the very kind Jiang Lao Shi too! Ok sorry if I miss out your name ah teachers.

I wanna go back to JYSS to visit 3 main teachers but sadly all 3 of them are no longer teaching there! How sad right?!

No school for yesterday as well as this coming Monday! Hurray!

Once again, HAPPY TEACHER’S DAY! (:

I TURNED 18! Part 1.

Thank God it was a Friday! No, I am not referring to today but my eighteen birthday that was on the 22nd of August!

I AM 18 ALREADY LEH!!! I can legally buy cigarettes, alcohol, 4d, toto, have sexy tattoos, enter most clubs and watch M18 movies!! Oh and! I can go and obtain driving license already!

All so abruptly!

Anyway, I have been thinking if I should wait till I collect all the pictures from Alice and then updating altogether but I think it would be too lengthy and besides, I am staying home today and I’ve got nothing much (besides, er-hem, the school assignments which I am heavily behind) to do.

Thus I have decided to split my birthday entry into two parts, part 1 and 2.

Well I guess I will only be able to get the remaining pictures from Alice on Monday and by the time I finish editing the pictures, I should be able to update again by Thursday…

Alright! I shall begin with a picture of the presents I received in school.


(:

Thank you the people who gave me those gifts! I like every one of them! Yes, I love the Pocky too.

As you can see, there is this very beautiful present with ribbons on the right of the picture. That is the wackiest gift I received this year.

And it is from no other than…


ALICE!!!

Look as if like some Valentine’s Day gift lor, got a card with our lovely dovely picture on it some more. Very sweet hor?


Can you guess what it is?

The birthday celebration in class was shared with Firdaus and Leon that coincidentally happen to born on the same day as I, as well as Allen whose birthday was two days earlier.


CAKE!


Class very happy.


Birthday boys!

I am the oldest among the four of us lor, they all turned 17 and I turned 18! I feel a bit old…

Similar to any other classmates’ birthday, I received a DIY birthday card with greetings from everyone. Oh and as expected… I was a snail on the card cover…


HAHAHA!


Inside.

I think I’m known as a snail in class lor… LOOK AT THE NUMBER OF SNAILS (and one worm) DRAWN IN THE CARD!

I have no idea why leh! Probably because I use the word “snail” too frequently, or maybe it has got to do with me being frequently late for classes? Ha!


I counted. 7 snails(plus the huge one on the cover), 1 worm.

Thank you to everyone who wrote in the card and also thank you to every single one who sent me birthday smses, Friendster comments, and the birthday tags here as well. (:

THANK YOU!!!

Ok, I shall end Part 1 of my birthday entry here by revealing what wacky gift Alice gave me. If you still haven’t manage to guess correctly, Alice gave me…

MAD OR WHAT LAH?! HAHAHA!

See! With another snail and worm drawn on each cup! I swear it’s the wackiest gift I have ever received.

Thanks ah Alice but I don’t think I will wear it lah, A-75 is way too small for my humongous double Ds. KIDDING! Hahaha!


Sexehness.

Part 2 of my birthday entry coming up soon I hope! This weekend was completely great and I LOVE and enjoyed it so fucking much!!!

***

On a random note, my dearest handphone is dying on me! The battery goes lower everytime I charge it! ):

TIME FOR A NEW HANDPHONE!!! Er-hem, Dad, if you’re reading this, just reminding you that you didn’t give me any birthday present yet leh…

Mwahahahaha…

I finally got to watch 12 Lotus with Deidrea, Gloria and Krinz last night! It was a really great movie but not as good as 881 I think… Pretty similar though… Just wondering, is musical-movies like a hit these days??

Talking about movies, I HAVE to watch The House Bunny! Anna Faris is completely comical and funny!

Aww… I AM SO HAPPY THIS WEEK! And I am so happy to be happy! (:

I can’t wait for the holidays, Avril’s concert, as well as my dear Xuanying’s birthday!

Ok, didn’t I say I was going to end my entry? I LOVE YOU PEOPLE, BYE YA’LL!!!

Alice P/S: OMG you’re completely right, I am really regretting! No chance!!! Let’s go again this Friday! DD, XY and MZ I’m talking to you too! (:

Picture Update

Today’s entry would be incredibly short, with only a few photos taken from the other day’s night out.

By the way, the pictures are all edited for Friendster.

I have completely given up on the complex Facebook… and actually Myspace too. I just thought it was too user-unfriendly, besides I’m almost friendless there.

Oh well… Friendster alone would be enough, at least for me.

Pictures!




Xuanying missing from the picture to complete EDAIJ reunion!




People are saying that Deidrea and I look like a couple here. Ok, I guess we do, just a little.




Another couple-ish picture for you.

Alright that’s all folks!

I think it is about time I should give my blog a brand new image, however I’m way too lazy to deal with the entire intricate HTML codes leh… Ugh!

Maybe when I have really nothing better to do at home lah.

On a lighter note, 20 more days to Xuanying’s birthday, 19 more days to Avril concert and 3 days to my EIGHTEEN birthday!!! (:

Oh my God, 18 leh!!! Feels so sudden! Wow… Ok, 18!

Painting Paris!

I finally did some painting last Thursday after I came home from school. I feel so much better after finally finding time and do what I wanted to do…

So anyway, as you can tell from the title of this entry, I painted Paris!

Not Paris the location, but Paris the celebrity, heiress, socialite, actress, singer, entrepreneur, reality TV star, Nicole Richie’s bff, Benji Madden’s gf, accidental porn star, fashion designer, dumb blonde or bimbo you might say, and the list can actually go on but I decide to stop here.

Well, so if you’re still wondering which famous Paris is that, it’s Paris Hilton.

I wanted to paint a famous person and decided to paint Paris out of anyone else simply because I think she’s the easiest to draw, and paint.

Besides, she’s sexeh and cool and I love her so why not?

Based on a hot picture of her wearing only her lingerie that I found from the internet, I did my painting on an old cardboard from my house…

Very poorthing lor, don’t even have proper canvas or wood to paint on.





20% done.

I know she’s a bit overly tanned. But she is always so flawlessly orangey tanned one mah!

Talking about tan, I still haven’t go tanning leh! Was supposed to go yesterday but everyone including myself, was too tired so never go lor. Ughhh…



Stop observing her neh nehs.

I swear Paris’s boobs were that big in the picture I found! Well... Maybe she’s wearing push up bra or something lah, cause by right she is quite thin and her boobs are not that big usually, right?

Or maybe it’s simply a flattering angle plus lighting to boost it up.



Almost done.

One of my friends mentioned that her neh nehs are out of shape in the painting leh… I think it is her left one, a little overly round like watermelon. Green colour somemore...

I am not a pervert hor!!! Just mentioning to you about what my friend brought up about her breasts only!



That’s hot.


Done!

So after like, 4 hours of painting I finally completed it.

I REGRETTED PAINTING THE BACKGROUND BLUE!!!

Completely tak-match and makes her look tanner than ever. I should have painted the background a military green or even better, black!

The original picture has a white background though…



Looks abit like Kimberly from PCD right?!

I think I should paint again next week! I'm thinking of painting Britney or Avril. Amy Winehouse will be a good one too.

This time will have to go get proper painting materials.

Enough about the painting… Have to go start on my assignments! Got a couple of things to be done by this Friday! So little time left!

Ok lah, I’ll end this irrelevant and random entry with a secret about the painting…

SINGFEST 08!

Finally, a proper entry complete with pictures, lots of pictures to be exact.

As you should already know, I attended Singfest on Sunday, all thanks to Krinz’s very kind mother for the ticket!

On Saturday, I went out with Gloria and Krinz to do some retail therapy, ended up buying 2 T-shirts and a slightly retro looking watch.

I am not too satisfied cause I wanted to buy another watch instead, which was nicer and cheaper but out of stock! Actually not out of stock lah but only left the display piece so I refused to buy lor. Oh well…

Anyway…

We decided to go home early that night to sleep so that we could wake up early for the event the next day.

I didn’t get too excited about Singfest till Saturday night when I realized that I was going to meet so many stars the next day!

Being EXTREMELY kiasu, Gloria and Krinz came up with a brilliant plan of waking up at 5AM so that we could meet up earlier for breakfast before queuing like a typical Singaporean would.

For your information, the concert was schedule to start only at 3PM.

I wasn’t very keen about the whole idea of waking up THAT early but I didn’t had a choice because they were persistent about queuing early for a better view since it will be a free standing event.

Poor me went to bed at almost 2am that night and woke up at 5! Hardly had any sleep at all!


It was almost 8am when we reached the venue.

The place was pretty quiet with a group of aunties and uncles practicing their very sexy tai-ji. Sitting by the queue was only about 10 people.

I swear those people are certified super kiasu Singaporeans lor! Hardcore fans.

Surprisingly, the event area wasn’t enclosed when we got there, and we actually went straight in!

Tsk tsk, very terrible organizing and security right?!

I mean, imagine someone without a ticket just enter and hide in the toilets and only come out when the concert starts, nobody knows lor! Sheryl, you should have done that!


We were completely shock at first when we saw the stage lor, we thought it was going to be like so small! Thankfully that was the second stage, for the local bands.


Main stage!

We managed to explore for a while before an event crew approached us to ask how we got in. The dude didn’t know the doors were all widely opened for us to simply enter…

We then went to have our breakfast before joining the other kiasu people. By the time we got back it was about an hour later and there was already about 50 people at the queue!

With that, it was the beginning of a really long wait. I’ll call it, the “Crazy Wait”. And it is divided into 3 parts.

Part 1: We waited all the way from 9 plus AM all the way till noon time(roughly 3 hours) when they finally allowed us to move forward to the front of the entrance.

Mind you, we were only allowed to move to the front of the entrance, NOT entering!




Gloria chatting on the phone.

While Gloria chats on the phone I decided to peep into her bag to see what she have brought along and made some, very odd discoveries…


Tanning oil and Aloe Vera Gel?! Seriously? Ha!

Part 2: We continued the Crazy Wait at the entrance for another hour and a half before we officially enter the event area, but only to wait ONCE AGAIN at the 2nd entrance to the main stage.




Our Singfest tags!


Krinz and I with our new friends, Meena and, I forget the other girl’s name.

Part 3: It was at this point of the Crazy Wait where the queue scattered and there was no longer a queue. People were just crowding around the gate as if the first person to go in will win Toto.

So much for the waking up early and being first in the queue…

I thought the organizing of the whole thing was just purely bad, because those kiasu people who came so early to queue might no longer enter first. How unfair isn’t it?

Ok back to the Crazy Wait.


Standing outside the gate in a crowd was the worst part of the whole waiting.

People were pushing and packed together, causing it to be extremely warm. Not mentioning the scorching sun that is killing everyone that day.

$200 for this kind of management, walau eh. Unlike the concerts at the Indoor Stadium, got aircon plus seats so much better lor...

Talking about concerts at indoor stadium, WE(the same three of us) HAVE BOUGHT TICKETS TO AVRIL CONCERT ALREADY.

Will go into more of that later, back to Singfest.

At last, at about 2.45PM, after almost 6 hours of waiting altogether, the gate finally opened and people were literally dashing towards the stage. Seriously, they were like really running, as if for their lives!

But honestly speaking, we were also running lah. Hahaha! Very excited what!!!


You can tell people were running.


VERY EXCITING.

We quickly find a good spot and settle down. Wasn’t too near the stage lah, roughly 1 and a half to 2 classrooms length. It definitely wasn’t far from the stage either. Good view.


Notice the hot burning sun…


Camwhore a bit before the concert starts.

The first scheduled performer was Stacie Orrico, she was supposed to perform at 3 but she didn’t appear till half an hour later. Well, stars are always expected to be late, for sure!


STACIE ORRICO!!!

Pretty not?! She’s so different in person! Slightly fatter but much hotter and prettier!


Her tan is perfect!

Talking about tan, the stupid sun that day caused me to have an uneven tan on my arms now! The heat from the sun also caused some rashes on my hands. ): These few days is so freaking warm!!! Gloria, Krinz, Sheryl, Xuan, when wanna go tanning?!?!


Sexeh.

Each of the artistes performed for an average of an hour. In between were stage preparations which may took up to 30 minutes. Snail.


That’s not the only look-alike we saw that day, there’s a couple more coming on later.

Next up was the boring Jamie Scott and The Town.


He couldn’t stop complaining about the heat, saying it was ridiculous. Standing in a packed crowd with a hot blazing sun was like, 20 times worst hor!




Krinz and I decided to leave his performance to get some drinks before we die of dehydration and become salted fishes.

To obtain F&B there you gotta exchange cash into coupons before making any purchase. And mind you the things there are really expensive lor, $10 for a freaking kebab.

For a bottle of plain water it’s $2, still not too bad lah. We bought 6 bottles.

Anyhow, we came across the local bands stage and…


I really pity the local bands, look at the small audience! I surely very sad if I am one of the local bands performing.


More camwhoring while waiting for the next act, ONE REPUBLIC! I think I saw Popeye watching the concert behind Krinz.

The crowd went crazy when One Republic came on stage.


It’s too late to apologise…


It’s too late…


I say its too late to apolo…

Ok enough of my fabulous singing.

One Republic were really great performers!!! I took a couple of horrible-quality videos of them with my phone, don’t think I would upload them.


See anyone familiar in the picture? Rihanna? Cassie?


THIS GIRL CAN GO JOIN THE NEXT BEST THING ALREADY LOR! Oh and by the way if you’re wondering, The Next Best Thing is a TV show about celebrity look-alikes, got nothing to do with Avril Lavigne’s The Best Damn Thing huh... Ha!

I think she looks a little bit like Vanessa Hudgens too, don’t ya think?


Crazy crowd.


More camwhoring…


Guess who’s that?

No other than…


PANIC! AT THE DISCO!

Their performance was interrupted by some technical difficulties but that Brendon Urie guy didn’t even realize that his microphone wasn’t working, and he continued singing like a fool on stage for the next what, 3 minutes?

It was until the song ended and when he tried to say something, he realize the mic was not working. Dumb… no offense Panic fans(it rhymes!).




Unmaintainable.


I look weird here.

The sky went dark very soon after, and it was Jason Mraz’s turn to perform. Those two friends whom we made went completely mad.


Gloria also went a bit mad when he started singing I’m Yours.


Ghost blocking the my view.


The stage by night looks so much nicer right!

Jason Mraz performance was one of the biggest that night. Have to emphasize on the “one of the”.


That girl is very excited for Rick Astley, which performed next.


Rick Astley.

Seriously I don’t even know who the hell he is leh, all I know he is an old singer… However, his performance was pretty good! So much better than expected! And there were like some fans tossing panties and bra up on stage for him leh, SERIOUS!

Don’t know got wash the undies one or not lor… Eww imagine if it’s smelly… HAHAHA!

Ahem, ok back to seriousness.

NEXT UP, the performance that I was most looking forward too that entire day!!!


Preparation of stage.


Lights went out…

SUPER EXCITED I TELL YOU. By now you should know who is next!

None other than, THE PUSSYCAT DOLLS!!!


I screamed like mad!!! They started their show with a highly remixed version of Buttons, very impactful!


Nicole Scherzinger the maid. KIDDING!

Swear I was completely star strucked, they are like super hot and they can dance damn well!




Surprisingly, they can sing rather well live! Actually, only Nicole can sing lah, the others sounded as if they were acting cute… But well, Pussycat Dolls mah maybe they trying to sound like cute cats.


Nicole stealing the limelight, as if she hasn’t had enough.


Sexeh!!!

BEST PERFORMANCE OF THE WHOLE CONCERT!!! I managed to record a few short videos of them. I have kindly put them together and uploaded it on Youtube! Click to watch!!!


WATCH!
(Very cool right my Youtube panel is red colour!)

After about an hour of hot dancing and singing, the PCDs ended their show. Very sad lah. ):

But they mentioned that they will be having a world tour next year, I so have to watch them again!!! I am officially a PCD fan!

On a random note, this entry is getting really long and dreary isn’t it?


Crowd very tired after dancing with the PCDs!

Last but not least, it was Alicia Keys. Krinz very excited to see his idol.


By then it was already past like 11pm and the crowd was almost dead. To make things worst, Alicia Keys was singing all her songs except her singles. How boring.






Alicia keys playing the piano.

Guess what, after watching her for an hour we were so exhausted we didn’t had the mood to enjoy her performance and we left the concert.

I CAN’T BELIEVE WE ACTUALLY LEFT A CONCERT!

Very mad right! I’m sure after we left she started singing all of her hits lor cause all the stars were keeping their hits for the last, except for the awesome PCD which performed all their hits!

Anyway, when we left I realized that I still had a $10 coupon which I exchanged for earlier. Since it would be useless after the event I decided to just spend it.

I bought a fucking can of Red Bull and a bottle of Coke.

Coke - $3
Red Bull - $6

Cashier didn’t have $1 couple to change me. Asshole. Damn expensive lah!!!

I felt cheated lor, how can a stupid can of Red Bull be $6?! I can buy a whole McDonald's meal plus UPSIZE already leh! And the stupid coke, just a 5ooml bottle need $3 meh, I can buy the 1.5L one at other place lor!

Bloody money eaters...

Ok sudden end of Singfest!

***

As I mentioned much earlier in the entry, I bought AVRIL LAVIGNE concert tickets already!!!

Damn happy and excited for it! Tomorrow would be exactly 1 month from it! My God! I’ve been waiting for it for sooo long, too long actually.

We bought the $165 tickets that were the most expensive. Hope the view is good!

On a completely different note, I have a raging urge to paint for almost one week already! I just have to paint, and need to paint, but I haven’t got the time to do so.

All of sudden it seems as if I have so much schoolwork to do… I think I’ll try to do some painting this Friday. Very exciting. (:

Ok, I’ll end my overly long entry here. My mom cooked dinner and its been awhile since I ate her home cooked food. Great!

Bye people! (:
