It's the leap year and on this rare occassion, it's also the birthday of a very very special friend - WeiQi! A very important friend in my life and i really hope she enjoyed herself and like what we did for her. Anyway, here are the pictures from the planning process to the actual big day. After IKEA on Tuesday, HuiYing, Liyi and I went to Causeway Point to buy puzzle and after dinner, it was off to HuiYing's place to start piecing the puzzle. We managed to complete close to half of the puzzle on the first day and finish it on the next. Working hard.
And going mad when we're going nowhere with it.
Like i said, crazy.

The completed work!
Putting a layer of glue on it to stick everything together and give it a glossier look.
While waiting for the glue to dry, we played card and looked at photographs.
Then, on Thursday, met them again (for 3 days straight! haha) after my birthday celebration with the poly clique and work on the final surprise for WeiQi.

And while i was writing, the 2 went mad again and start posing with the paper.


Criminal 1.
Criminal 2, who seems happy about it. Well, obviously since the name was Mrs Chou. You know, Jay Chou.
Criminal 3.
Then we saw the following name and can't help but have the same reaction.
He is none other than, the Prince of Pending.
It's done! We managed to convince the waitress at Mind Cafe to pass it to us in an envelope upon bill, and claim that it's a promotional voucher which we've won after spending more than a certain amount.

Then it was the actual day. People present includes the following.
I had a hard time deciding what to wear and HuiYing chose this for me. Haha.
The birthday girl was slightly late and this is her making her grand entrance.
Opening her first present at Suki Sushi.





Present 1!
Human marketing.
Then it was off to Mind Cafe. Look at YongSheng's ,aka Prince of Pending, competitive expression.


The birthday girl, who also happens to be good in almost all the game!
And, there are of couse people who went crazy because they simply suck. HAHAHAHA. I'm kidding.


And i finally won ONE round. I think it's the only round i won.


Fierce okay!

I think this is the lamest game, but yet it's also the favourite.

When we're about to leave, everyone went to the toilet and when i am done, look at what happened to my camera in just a few minutes.
The Prince's self image. Wow. Rare collectibles okay. Maybe i cna fetch a good price with that. Okay, i take that back on second thought.



Finally, it's bill time! She really thought it's voucher, and wanted to share with us.
Her reactiona upon the truth.
Actually, in that envelope is only the messages. The actual gift is with Liyi, and we only give it to WeiQi 5 minutes later. Rival!
Strategic planning. It's only a GAME!!
The common target among everyone. See how lonely he looked. Hahahaha. I'm just kidding.
Suddenly, halfway through the games, the cake was brought out and caught the girl in surprise.

Since it's only her fifth actual birthday, how could we miss having party hat!


Gift number 2! Gift voucher.






Much efforts invested in this, and it's worth it.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRL!!! Hope she love everything and enjoy herself.
After WeiQi and Shandy left, the rest of us went to have dinner at Secret Recipe while WeiQi wait for her parents to come fetch her for their celebration. After WeiQi left and dinner was done, we head for The Cathay with ice cream in our mind. I have to leave minutes after reaching because i have to go off and meet LeeLian at town so no ice cream for me. Which is good i guess, since i'm having 16kg of FATS. Hahaha. I can't get over that. So babe and i quickly shopped around Taka and Wisma since it's near closing time and she needs to get a dress by yesterday. We combed the entire Forever 21 until around 10.20 pm but still didn't get anything. Good thing is, Babe's friend decided to lend her the entire closet to choose from. I think this is much better than settling for the second best she could find at Forever 21. On the way back home on bus 171, Lee got bored and did some crazy stuff, again. Doesn't come as a surprise to me actually.

Taking picture of the guy who keeps looking at LeeLian when she's taking pictures of herself.
Taking my "sexy" leg.
Disturbing the couple behind us.
In front of us.
And the person next to her - me!

Molestation! Hahahahahahaha.

The past week has been nothing but fruitful. Met a lot of the friends, did tons of chatting and did some pretty meaningful stuff together! Tuesday, met up with Liyi and HuiYing and went to IKEA cause Miss Ng needs to get a box to keep her stuff. I finally got to try the meatball there, something that got almost everyone around me raving about. Actually, it's just a-okay for me. I don't know, it taste so, manufactured! Hahahaha. But the sauce is good though, and i love potatoes. Nothing can go wrong with potatoes. See, that's where most of the 16.1 kg of fats came from!! Chilled at Plaza's Starbucks before heading to Causeway Point for some light shopping. That's all i can reveal though. Hahaha. Then on Wednesday, which was yesterday, went to CaliFitness gym with Diana for some "workout". That inverted comma there is because the word workout just doesn't seem to associate well with me. Did some exercise there, made a fool outta myself a little and sweat like a pig. It's fun though, especially since i've been accumulating pounds ever since, erm, well i can't seem to remember the last time i exercised. We initially wanted to try their Yoga class for fun but we got the time mixed up and missed it. There's this equipment that trains your inner thigh, and gosh, that posture is, classy? I look like i'm in some giving birth course! Hahaha. I'm sorry if i sound "noob" or something but some equipments there are just too funny! I don't know why but my heartbeat tends to accelerate a teeny bit too fast. Was on this threadmill thing and the acceptable heartbeat rate should be around 100 plus, and mine was like 180! It keeps sending me the message that i should slow down to reduce the rate but no matter how slow i was, the best i could drop to was the 160 region. Hahahahahaha. Honestly, i've no idea why. The next half of the day was to be kept confidential for a while. Then it came today! Met up with Diana in the early afternoon to get some stuff at Marina Square before heading to Chinatown to assemble with the rest of the Poly clique to celebrate my birthday in advance! We had Yum Cha's dim sum buffet and boy, that was filling!! I definitely had a blast today with the poly "bestie" (i used "bestie" because it sounds so high school but i can't seem to think of any other word right now with my eyes half shutting) and i am so grateful and thankful to have them with me all through the 3 years of Poly life. They have brought me tons of wonderful memories and laughters and all i can hope for is to be friends for life. Jade, Bee and Van got me this really cool tee from GAP as well as $40 voucher for this electronic shop, which they've won from the school's marketing competition, because they know that i want to get an mp3 player. I love all of it dearly and i can't thank all of them enough for turning up.
Seriously, if anyone were to serve any more dim sum to me, i would have puke right at their face. Hahaha

Bee looking, erm, highly sophisticated. Bee, in an attempt to drain away the honey in her guilin gao, dropped the entire dessert into her congee. Damn. Disgusting. And we laughed like mad. The guys. Eugene and Yong Ming, the one who never fails to crack joke. Funny or not. And, Yong Ming is the first ever friend i made in Poly!
Immediately after lunch-cum-dinner, we carried our pregnant stomach for some dessert. Come on, we're just a few steps away from these mouth watering desserts. How can we give it a go, when all through the 3 years, the topic that never fails to be brought up is definitely F&B. I swear i was verging on exploding but i still somehow manages to shove it inside of me. Maybe it's because of the hapiness i'm feeling! Hahaha.
Also, how can we forget a group shot! Well, i don't think that alley serve as the best background but it's the only place we could find at that time. And Yong Ming looked highly hilarious in that picture, in which all of us conclude that he looks like some passerby who somehow gets into this picture.
Then it's the 3 of us on the way back home.
Thank you thank you thank you! I'm so glad that everyone turned up and i definitely had a fan-freaking-tastic day!
