my birthday, how did it go?

my last teen.
but yuri said " no! you've still got twenTEEN ? "

hahahah, yea, birthday spent w her, i wouldnt mind even if im 80.
it'd still feel as though it was eighTEEN.

despite being out of job, i still had t wake early,
-to go for a job interview.

feli was the first person i saw on my birthday!!
woo~ ~

the interview?
was more of ME interviewing that person.
she spoke as i asked.

then i shopped at centrepoint while waiting for yuri.
there were sooo much i want in MNG !!

soo much you knwww!!!

went t look mer up,
i rlly rlly missed her.

yuri " manyinggg, later if we have the time, if we have lah, i dont knw where t dig that time out; we go Max Brenner kayy! "

gg there has been our wish since she was still in sg last yr.
she spent her last day in sg last yr at esplanade too, wanting Max Brenner, but ended up in Hagen Daazs.

okay, so after yuri came, it was just rush rush rush shopping list clearing.
we had chicken skin!!! aunty anne, and sat at the fountain of taka.
=) just like what we'd always used t do.

5 items,
all cleared =)

woot``
so we had time!
zoomed from town t cityhall,























sorry, my face is in her phone.

yepp,
she was in such a rush, yet t do last minute packing and she was staying IN WOODLANDS.

so we parted in the train,
i went back t town, while she's headed t woodlands.

after she left,
my mood changed immediately.
i stress 'immediately'
right after i stepped out of the train station.


and adsurdily,
i called xuan for an interview arranged,
and went for it.
yeah, i was accepted,

then before jas came, i went t Zara t emo in the fitting room.
LOL.
i took clothes off the shelf and went in, sat down t reply t birthday smses, and walked out of it still w hangers on the clothes.

okay, so jas and i sat for a chat before meeting sher t go AMK.
we had our usuals,
waffle and bean,
somethg that bonded us tgt,
thereby creating the MSJ.

and i went town again t meet dearest stalkers where they gave me somethg that made me SCREAMED.

THANKEW PHOON MUI CONE!!!!!!!!!!

i simply LOVE IT.
=D

back at home,
it was the earliest ive ever went back on birthdays.

and instead of bathing immediately,
i sat down t receive countless wishes which i rlly appreciated.
maybe its the age?
or maybe its the not too happy day,
i felt especially touched by every single wishes.

you knw, even ferps' mom msged "hi man, happy birthday."
hahhah/
and aunty margaret called me using the company's hotline t wish me!

that was rlly sweet.

yeah,
and chu ping offered t meet me knwing i was alone for that short period of time.
so many who cared,
yet i was rather down.

okay, as i was saying,
i was smsing,
sat at my sofa for duper long,
until xuan called.
"manying ar.. where are you now?"
" home, why?"
"haii. . . im very down."
"god, what happened?! xuan?"
"errr.. can i meet you now?"
"now? i dont knw, i go and ask my mom first okay?"
"okay"


"she said no ehh, what happend what happened?! actually im not too happy either."
"sigh.. nvm, i'll call you back."

and she hung up.


omgosh, that rlly frightened me!

rang again.
"what if you tell your mom you'll only be at the void deck?"
"oh, that? can!"
"are you sure? "
"yeah, yeah, no problem. are ypu olright, xuan?"
"yarr.. olright.. so i'll drive t your house now hur?"
"yup, okayy."

yuri called and we had our last sg phone talk.
=(

in between it, xuan left three missed calls but yuri was more important you see. =X

" XUAN!! SORRY SORRY!! give me 5 mins, 5 mins!! i need t take off my lens!!"
"okkay, no problem."

i went down, couldnt figure out a thing,
only heard someone calling my name,
(i wasnt in specs either)

she saw me, and passed me helmet, was asked t hop on.

"omgosh, i have no moneyy!!"
"i dont require you t have any"

she only said she wanna go "park" and didnt like the one at my house.

i didnt probe much, knwing how down she was.
man, her speed was fast.

then we got t somewhere near kovan.
sat at the void deck, her face, still as gloomy.
yet t tell me what happened.

"i feel like gg t the park now."
and stood up.
it was dark,
i wasnt in specs nor lens.

until we came t this lane, she grabbed my hands, heaved a heavy sigh, and said " i dont knw how t say it."
" now, walk behind me, this lane is narrow."

then she asked " have you walked w eyes covered?"
"no."
she covered mine, and held me tight, only saying " hurry, hurry, time is running out!"

it was so fast, and confusing,

until when she released her hands,
and my eyes reopened,
i saw candles.

still in a blur,
i was wondering who are the ppl there?
muriel?
yinmei?
phoon?

but nah,
most unexpectedly,
they were JONATHAN AND MICHAEL.

omgosh, i almost lost control over myself and kept screaming in joy and couldnt help but feel touched,
"hurry hurry!!! before 12!!!!"

and wind was diminishing the fire, the guys were busy relighting it,
until i said " nah, nvm! here i go!"
and blew em out.
omgosh, my only cake on my 19th.

i couldnt be happier.
rlly,
for someone who barely knew me,
jon and mic had done more than enough.

and xuan, i couldnt thank her enough,
she sprang up w a surprise when i was the most down.

man was i touched.

so the foursome had a long chat,
though i kept quiet, only admiring at the flower they gave,

i was feeling more than happy deep inside.

THANKEW XUAN, for stressing,
THANKEW JON, for all the effort,
and THANKEW MICHAEL, for your companion,

im never gonna forget what youve done on my last teen =DD

now,
my speech of thanks.

to : phoon.
i didnt look at the 'story' until when i was gg t sleep.
and knw what's my first reaction?
a wide curve up my face, repeating " omgosh, omgosh, omgosh!!!"
you knw how touched i was t see all the pages filled w sincerity and undoubted effort?!
from all the nineteen chapters,
i see, once again, how our amazing friendship commences, right from the day i stepped in the lecture hall recognised as 'THE AH LIAN.'

you remembered the dates, or, have made the effort t recollect the things we've done tgt at different period of time.
i could feel it,
how much you cherish the friendship we share.
i felt your sincerity.

no surprises, i dont ask for that,
just sincerity,
that touched me.
thats more than enough, rlly.

and though i dont believe the prologue was written by you, cos it's too wonderful and literary, i still appreciate the first chapter =))
i've only done that sort of 'biography' for yuri, and had never expected anyone t do it for me.
but you did.
im gonna make that story a never ending one,
never,
never ending,
even after we die,
it'll still be continued at our STALKING EXPERIENCE in the nether world.
muahahhaahah.
stalk all the cow heads horse masks!

a big THANKEW t you, phoon.

to : mui,
oh man, you made me think of the koreans AGAIN.
but yeah, that was how our friendship started yeah?
from KOREANS 23.
they could have brought us unhappiness,
but the happiest things i got from them is your friendship.
i didnt knw a friendship that built up on guys can last me through this long,
could stand by me at my lowest,
could bring a smile t me all the time i think about it.

im confident you aint just another passerby in my life,
we will celebrate our first bday tgt,
and will always do for the rest of our lives.

i love you, Muriel Ang Yan Ting. MAYT.
=))

To cone :
though we've been distanting, and disdistanting ever since the first day we got t knw each other,
in 3D, that is.
im most glad the closest time we had tgt created the happiest me.
and even the time where we hardly get t talk were good times, cos it made me realised how much i love you when we were tgt.

sometimes, i think its a good thing, cos it makes reconciling more treasured.

cone, no matter how close, or how distant we may be,
i wanna let you knw,
you are one friend i'd never regret owning.

i love you, i rlly do =)

to: jia.
though i didnt get t see you on my bday,
i heard your voice countless times!
"i've always been the one calling you."
i realised, i knw.
and i may have taken it for granted,
but should one day you stopped calling,
i wouldnt knw what would have become of me.

jiajia- someone who never fail t stand by me when i needed someone,
or when i dont need.
(hah)
but your show of concern have unexpectedly bumped into times when i needed someone t talk t the most.
(my friend's death, for example)
you have your sch, i have my work,
but you are the most updated friend i have, all thanks t your effort in maintaining it well.
im sorry for putting so much less effort and attempts,
but that doesnt mean you aint important t me.
i thank god for granting me such a wonderful friend,
and i thank you for never giving up on me.

jia, GAMSAHAMNIDA,
saranghaeyo.

to : fel.
you may have been quiet w long face t other ppl, but the fact that you open up so much t us, showing your most unglam side, assures us of our importance t you.
(or t some extent)
i think we thinking 'the korean way' does bond us tgt.
your behavior as the da jie is well respected by me,

thankew for making me one of your circle of friends =D

felly felly felly !!!
i didnt realise how much fun we could have tgt until we started work tgt.
yeah, good friends in sch doesnt necessarily comes the same as outside sch.
but despite our extreme tastes ranging from men t clothes, t phone, t almost everythg, it is amazing that we could still get so close.

i cherish this ties that we share,
i cant say whats beholding our future,
but i must say im the happiest creature alive when i was at work w you.
you were the only reason why i felt GOOD in a job.
never had i enjoyed working experience this much.
ferps,
i love you, i rlly do.

DAMN KIMCHEE.

okay! end of thankew speeches. =DD

i went out w Eugene yesterday t get my present,
though in the end, it's still in his bag,
hahah,
todays his birthday,
and we parted at 1plus last night,
which is t say i celebrated his birthday w him, and were the first t wish.

man, how much cuter can a guy get t have fallen asleep in movies?!
he is duper cute, i promise.

=D
