My100th post is dedicated to you :)

Thank you

Jess's Masquerade Party

Jess Yap celebrated her 24th last week with a Masquerade themed party. It was a very cosy celebration with lots of colourful get ups and a whole lot of bootyshaking. Think Yu Min might have dislocated his hips :P (See if you can spot which picture later. Lol)

It was so hard to find a mask to fit my asian panda eyes (If I catch anyone staring at my eyes the next time I'm talking to them, they'll suffer the consequences). Even with a very patient and all-too-kind driver, it just wasn't meant to be for me to find one. Hahah. I ended up borrowing one from Esther, who brought over my favourite waffle cookies thingy about 10 minutes ago
*eeks! jumps for joy*

I'll let the pictures do the talking. Enjoy :)

 

Facebook simplifies things

everyone attempting to do the 'Amy smile'

I know I said I was going to post up lots of stuff that's been happening with pictures and all to add some colour to your day. But after posting up so many pictures on facebook, I figured, they speak for themselves. Hehe. Log in to Facebook to see what's been happening. Birthdays, surprises, gatherings, events and the lot. Speaking of birthdays, I haven't actually really thanked all of you, far and near, who made my 20th extra special. So Thank You guys! From all the dinners, surprises, wishes, gifts, calls, facebook wall posts, friendster comments (lol yes, I still use that, though not recently), and especially for those that were just there to spend time with me.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I shall stop posting things about the past. You must have read it from other blogs already anyway. I'm so slow. hahah.

Go! Facebook! Now! :)

For adding extra smiles on my birthday, here's a picture for you. Thank You, Monkey Boy!

missed me?

hehe. i'm back.. for a short while.

it's been pretty hectic around here since i last posted. i really wanna blog about everything that's been happening/going to happen but i've got no time! i seriously think i need 37 hours in a day. got tons of pics to post too but my bandwidth is over the limit for this month so uploading pics are a no no according to the little brother. and i've been missing out on this week's episode of prison break, gossip girl, and one tree hill. speaking of oth, at the end of episode 2, i sat frozen on my bed for 5 whole minutes.. and there were only 3 letters in my head - OMG! lol sorry, digressed. anyhoo, i can't even check facebook oasis properly. hehe did i tell u that i've finally accepted facebook? lol. i know. evil thing. i realised there's never "just 5 minutes on facebook". sad, but true.

oh yes, and i've got sammy boy's virgin trip to aust pics to post. hahah. very surprised but very happy :) and my bday pics with lotsa lovely ppl. and jeremy's 21st toga party and who showed up at the end, esther's bday dinner, yan ying's stolen car plate (hehe funny story), things that have been going on at uni and prac.. there's always so much stuff that i wanna post up but then u find before u have time to post that up, something else happens and then another and another. then u end up with a whole bunch of very late posts..which sometimes i just go..screw it. let's move on. hahah. we'll see how it goes this time. 

ooh going back to uni, i scored a 100 on my caa test! wooooooooot!!! lol. okayyy it's actually nth to be too proud of cos they were repeated questions from the first attempt. so i just memorised the answers i got wrong. hahaha. hey it's still legit. and i'm very very proud to say i finished my social inclusion essay that's due in 3 weeks *pats self on back* i'm not a nerd. really. hahah it's just that i have 3 other major assignments due then so i'm better off getting this one out of the way. ohh and at prac last week, we got to do more than just push the residents around in their wheelchair and brush their teeth. how exciting! we got to make them paper hats for the upcoming Melbourne Cup..... -.-'" what do i study again...?
 
oh well i'll tell u bout yan ying's story since it's a non-picture related post. hehe funny story.. yan ying got to her car in uni only to find one of her car plate got stolen. she was so mad that she put her human bio book on the top of her car (while checking her car plate i presume), and drove off. LOL. just laugh along even if u think it's not funny cos i found it hilarious. hehe.

ohhh i have to tell u bout my newest addiction obsession! (can't use addiction, else i would have had to go for the computer forum thing today - don't try to understand. only fga ppl wud know). anywaysss, i'm overwhelmed by the number of online shopping blogs that's out there. i somehow received the newsfeed thing for one of them online shopping blogs and just clicked on the link out of curiosity. i haven't gone one day without checking them out since. i must admit, some of them i very lala-ish. but there r some pretty nice ones out there. reasonably priced too. i saw a couple that i really really liked but they were sold out and non-restockable. i couldn't sleep on the first night. hahah. then i found the same one on another blog. oh happy day!!! lol. and kudos to muffin for running around to get it for me.

Freedom camp is on this friday till monday!!! (that's when my bandwidth thingy restarts. what perfect timing) can't wait to see what God has in store for us!! :) my biological clock is going to be screwed. haven't woken up at 7.30 am in the longest time. ohh did i mention, for prac, i was 1 of the 4 students that got to attend prac at 4-7.30pm! sweeeeeeeeett! the rest of them had 7-11am shifts. hahah. okayy i think i mentioned that before. nvm. 

how's that for a very long post to make up for my temporary hiatus? it's sleepy time. 5 more weeks till the end of uni... i think. i should really check that out. goodnight!

ps: to mummy and daddy, don't worry. i'm not squandering my money away. they'r in safe hands :) miss u! love u!

i'm backkk.

i've got this strange feeling that i'm somehow obliged to blog. hahah. plus i wanna pen all these things down to look back on someday.

anyways, ange has already blogged bout Al-Fu's wedding with most of or pics so u can read about it here, if u haven't already. lol yes, i'm slow.

One of the highlights of this year would have to be Danson's Amazing Race, in conjuction with his 20th birthday and farewell (which he later found out that he didn't have to leave that soon- so yay for all of us! lol). i must say, it was extremely well planned considering he did it alone. so kudos to u, danson :)

The day started off at Jandakot airport where pilot boy had a little sausage sizzle going on. ange and i made some banana-marshmallow-chocolate dessert thingy *drools* hahah. ohh and we all had to wear a bandana. i had the hardest time looking for one :S anyways, we then split into 7 teams of 3 or 4

L-R: Team HURRH!! (with extra oomph! lol best non-boring team picture!), Kenny's angels -.-'", Team AAA



L-R: Battalion 28, Italian Job



L-R: Team (wachamacallit), Ginger O, Aeroplane Jelly

We started off with a Road Block, where 1 person from each team had to perform the task. Team HURRH chose the only girl from their team... *sweat*. we had to run around Jandakot airport looking for the only shop that sells parts i think. my heart almost dropped out. haha i saw the place from far! but i didnt think it was that cos everyone else who ran back with the answer came from another direction.. lesson learnt: never ever follow other donkeys :P haha

1st challenge was at Myaree's utopia where we had to say one of 2 lines.. either 'i'm a fan of Jay Chou or i'm a fan of Stephen Chow which will get us either a sweet or bitter bubble tea. when i was reading the clue it said "board a chartered plane...".

me: AAAAAAAHHHHHH! he's gonna fly us on a plane!!!!! *big huge smile*
Jon & D: impossible. r u sure? read finish first
me: yeaaaa it says board a chartered plane and get ur pilot to take u to ur next destination.

*reads reads reads*

Jon & D: Utopia Myaree!
me: ohhh.. then when do we get to ride in the plane??
Jon & D: -.-'"

2nd challenge- Narrows Bridge, where Agape goes for biscuiting events. Danson was there to greet us with our next clue and a CD. We were given a little pink plastic ring which we had to throw into the fire.. - King's Park! Jon's car didnt have a CD player so couldnt play it. the other teams later told us it was the Amazing Race theme song which got everyone even more pumped up.

3rd challenge- Kings Park. lol no, we didn't throw the ring into the fire. Chi Yen was at the Whispering Wall waiting for us. We had to recite the whole chorus to "No greater love" which was also in the CD to obtain our next clue. that was my (one and only) forte. ahha Jon & D just followed along (lol like in White Chicks when they were singing 1000 miles). then we ran back to the car b4 we even opened our next clue.. -.-'" and our next challenge was just right where we were before..

4th challenge- ran past chi yen again and she was laughing at us. anyway it was a detour. so we picked the one where we had to count the number of soldiers in some battalion thing.. and WALK all the way to the top of the DNA tower to reveal our answer to Darren and get the next clue.. lol i couldn't walk that far and was obviously slowing Jon & D down so decided to take turns and piggyback me. our answer was wrong :O hahah so we had a 5 mins penalty and waited on the top of the DNA tower with Italian Job and Hui and Flick from Team Aeroplane Jelly (they were split up from the guys who went for the wrong detour.. or sth like that. haha so they had to wait)

5th challenge- Road block, where 1 person from each team had to eat a whole piece of dry bread in 1 minute. Easier said than done. Failure to do so resulted in all team members eating 2 pieces of bread each. lol only Alvin managed to complete that one successfully..

6th challenge- Detour at Danson's old school, Shenton College, where we had to pick between Academic or Athletic. Only team Ginger O picked Athletic, where they had to do what Tan was doing in the pic...around the huge field. In Academic, we chose to name all 20 elements of the Periodic Table... thinking that I could remember it but obviously all those years of Chemistry went down the drain. So we called up Lyndon ;P hahaha who patiently recited it all for us. little did we know that almost all the other teams did that as well. hahhah poor Lyndon.

7th challenge- we had to answer the clue that would lead us to Challenge Stadium, where his mum was waiting to give us the next clue. that was pretty simple.

Pitstop!- Finally! ... but it was all the way at Scarborough at the Observation. We came in 4th but nevertheless, it was nth short of a fulfilling and fun day. And i liked how he put it in his last clue where 'it was never mentioned that only the 1st team to arrive would be the winner'. very insightful hahah.

we then proceeded to a beach side house to celebrate the rest of the night. ohhh daryl arrived from singapore and we celebrated Jon's 22nd that night as well- with lychee 'cake', ais potong, mahjong, family guy and an A380 SIA model plane.

the end! i'm rather proud of myself for this long post :P hahah.

We Love You and We Miss You HEAPS! And we're thankful that God has allowed us to spend another birthday and Father's Day with you :) Thank you for being the best dad ever- for ur constant support and for ur unconditional love for us

my dad used to make us milo and bring our breakfast into the bedroom where the 3 of us groggily brush our teeth with half closed eyes to get ready for school. how about yours?

my dad cuts us fruits into like paper thin slices to get us to eat our fruits, he peels the rambutan flesh off the seeds and refrigerates them for us and he refrigerates durian to make it icy cold like ice cream for us. how about yours?

my dad willingly sacrificed his early morning exercises whenever his 3 rascals were late for school which made him late for work. how about you?

my dad used to cut our hair and i had like the cutest straightest fringe when i was in primary school. lol. how about yours?

my dad used to help us with our projects and even drew out exactly what i wanted to do for my art exam which i secretly traced out in the exam hall. how about yours?

my dad bought us turtles and squirrels when we were little cos for some weird reason we liked them. how about yours?

my dad taught me how to drive our bmw before i could legally drive. how about yours? 

my dad taught me to learn to forgive and to love others through some of the toughest times away from home. how about yours?

my dad lets me buy what i want in case i start sulking. how about yours?

my dad let his fickle-minded daughter repaint her room about a million times without letting her know how much work that was. how about yours?

my dad is my AXN, Starworld tv-watching buddy (i miss Astro!). how about yours?

 my dad unselfishly worries about how my mum n my siblings and i haven't had lunch... just before he goes for his operation. how about yours? 

my dad make sures his family gets the best. how about yours?

don't fret. i'm sure your dad does great things too. i just wanna tell u that this is My Dad!
