Last week of 18 years old
One year flies so fast that I thought I had just celebrated my 18th birthday yesterday. I had my good & bad times throughout my life being a 18 years old young adult & they had become part of my memories. My birthday falls on every year, 15th may, & this year, it was so coincidently that my lunar birthday falls on the same day this year which was hard to come by. I also had my fun since one week before my big day.
Last tuesday, I went out with my group of (Effective People Management module) EPM projectmates to marina square. The group consists of Yi Lin, Jing Ying, Derrick, Royston, Joanna & me. We wanted to watch movie but in the end, we went to play bowling & arcade instead. It was fun & interesting that we are able to mix around so well when we just knew one another for 3weeks (except Yi Lin & I). We will get together & go out again when we are done with our projects. Haha..
On 10th may, I went out to watch movie with Cheryl after school at 5pm at Cineleisure. We caught the movie 'The Art of Seduction' and it is a good show if you want to have a good laugh. I felt so fortunate to have a friend who is so on to accompany me when I wanted to watch any movies that she might not be keen on.
I met up with Cheryl right after the next day again together with Sharon. They went to my house to celebrate my birthday & they bought a chocolate mousse cake for me. It was so sweet.
Vesak day was on the 12th may so it was a public holiday. Charmaine is so thoughtful that she had secretly organised an outing within our classmates to celebrate my birthday & also as a form of gathering for our class. Haha.. But somehow, the 'secret' just have loopholes & I somehow get the idea before we met up that day. Charmaine, Yi Lin, Marcus, Lu Xing, Yee Hwee, Zhi Hong, Tung & Elson were there to join in the celebration. Although there were only 8 people, but I was so elated that they were willing to make time out & effort to be there when they were being told about the information at the last minute. We went to marina bay to have steamboat buffet & we went for bowling session after our heavy dinner. Thomas & Ming Hao couldn't make it on time but it's ok. At least both of them did called & I appreciated it. I hope that they did enjoyed themselves from my treat for bowling.
Saturday, 13th may, was also a fun-filled time for me with my darling babes, Yan, Jia, Ling & Ping. We finally get to confirm where to go on that day itself. After a few rounds of cracking brain of where the activites we can go within Singapore, we decided to play board game. Settlers' Cafe at north canal was fully booked on that day & we were so anxious when we heard the news. However, we were lucky that Ling's friend know of another cafe named the Mind Cafe at Prinsep street & we headed there.

Oh.. Taboo! Ling hit me cause she thought I said the wrond word but I'm not.
Haha.. Taboo her! Punishment for saying the wrong word & she did!
Ping likes to be the camera-man. Opps! I mean camera-woman.
Later on, we went over to Geylang to have our improper dinner of soya bean drink, you tiao, toasted bread & lastly durian! Durian was our main motive for going there as we just missed the durian season so much. In Ping's blog, she talked about durian being one of the reasons that brought us closer but to me, I think it was just a small minor reason. We had fun & enjoy one another company & our memories of the times we had are the main reasons that brought us closer.

Yummy yummy..
Half-way to completion!
14 may is the 2nd sunday of may & it happened to be mother's day as well. I stayed at home most of the time & went out with my family later for a simple dinner & to realise that my weight is gaining for the good food I have enjoyed over the week.
Today, I met up with Jeff dear at hougang for a simple meal after school. I was glad that he is able to meet me although he end his school late. Happy 19th Birthday to me!
