Up till now, i haven't been really excited about the fact that i'm 20. Everytime i think about it, all i can think of is the word "old" in my head. If i were to say that out in public, i would be grateful if people don't come and starts preaching, or worse still, throw whatever's in their hand on me. Hahahaha. Anyway, let's talk about happier stuff. Met up with 2 of my favourites - Meow and Nazi - on Monday. Went to Great World to sort of celebrate my birthday, but also like an excuse to get-together, haha. Had tea session at Coffee Bean and during which, the 2 of them got a cookie as my birthday cake. Hahahahaha. Ain't that sweet? I don't know why but i'm exceptionally hungry that day. I gobbled up my cake within minutes, and the same goes for the cookie. Shopped around that mall for my little cousin's birthday present and surprisingly, kids stuff at Zara are kind of cheap. And i can fit into their biggest size! If i were shameless enough, i would just start buying my clothes there. Hahahahaha. Just kidding!! Anyway, got him this pullover and he absolutely love it when i pass it to him that night. He put it on immediately and keep touching it like it's some kind of emperor's gift! Hahaha. Very cute. So after shopping around Great World, we head to Holland V cause i got this electronic shop voucher from the poly clique as part of my birthday gift and, alongside the cash i receive from my brother and his girlfriend, i went and gotten myself a mp3 player! So a big thank to those who contributed to this gift! I'm really really happy and grateful. Plus, i had a great time with the friends as usual. And on Tuesday, i was actually grounded by my parents, cause i've been going out every single day ever since exams' over. But it came at a perfect time though, cause i don't really have a plan on tuesday. Hahaha. So i did something meaningful with the time by indulging in one of my all time favourite pasttime - reading! It's Out of My Depth by probably one of the best author in my opinion, Emily Barr. I adore all her books and this book, like the others, was so captivating and intriguing that once i flipped on the first page, i couldn''t stop. I can't emphasize how good it is, but it's REALLY REALLY good. I spent most of the waking hours reading the book and i, surprisingly, finished half of it on the first day. Yeah, that's how i spent my entire day. Devoted to just one book. But i kinda like days like this, where i find myself a comfortable position on the sofa, make myself a cup of Lipton tea with honey and just read. And it actually makes me happy, i wonder why. And today, met Yas and Nazi in the afternoon for some junk food at Mac. You might notice that i seldom mention the word "morning", cause by the time i woke up each day, it's already noon. So after packing on some unnecessary pounds, i carried on with the book. Yes, i'm that excited about it. And i finished it in one shot! This kinda puts me off in a way that she has only written that amount of books and i basically read all of them from the library. And it's tough to find an author whose style really fits your reading habit. But well, i'm still satisfied from the fact that it's another great book, as geeky as i may sound. Anyway, some random photos and i'm off the hit the sack! This is the wallet my favourites got me. Well, actually, i chose it and they pay for it. For 2 years in a row, we've started this trend in which the birthday boy/girl will tell the others what he/she wants and the rest will pay the money. Hahahaha. May be weird but that's how we function. And of course, the plus side to this is, we'll LOVE the present. Hahahaha.
I'm THAT hungry.

I like candid shots. Nice one, i mean. Where the expression are real, instead of staged.




And come overdued chinese new year pictures.
My lovely cousin.

First of all, happy birthday to me!! Hahahaha. Yay! I'm 18!!! Shush people, i'm not in denial. Nope, i'm absolutely sure i'm 18. Hahahaha, alright, enough crap. I admit old! Today is the day i offcially step into the 20 club, and it's not worth mentioning anyway. Before i start my rambling about how depress i am to be 20, let's start off by sending a HUGE HUMONGOUS THANK YOU to all the friends!! Thank you so much for the well wishes (though i hope you guys could maybe patronize me a little by wishing me a happy 18th birthday instead of my actual age but still, thank you) and everyone made me the happiest living creature for the day. I'm utterly blessed and honored to have each and everyone who's currently in my life and i can't ask for more. I am thankful to have such wonderful people around and honestly, they are the rockstars of my life. Once again, thank you thank you and thank you. For the smses, gifts, and simply the presences, i thank all of you. Had early celebration last night with the family cause my brother has got duty today. So my family, alongside my favourite grandma, uncle and aunt's family, went for a very simple dinner which i enjoyed a lot. It's a simple affair but it really means a lot to me. And today, which is the big day, i've got one of my favourite to celebrate with me - Miss Diana Barretto Sy! So my dear friend brought me out for lunch at Cedele, located at Raffles City Shopping Centre. I've been wanting to try it for quite some time and i finally did today. Reason being? There's no transfat! Hahahahaha. We had smoked salmon sandwich, beef-something-sandwich, chocolate walnut cheesecake and apple nut cheesecake. Well, smoked salmon has got to be one of the worst food i've tasted in a while! Hahahaha, thanks to me for trusting the reviews instead of my intuition! Thankfully, Diana was nice enough to trade half of her beef sandwich for mine, even though she don't eat salmon! Touched. The cheescakes though, were absolutely heavenly! I love the apple nut cheesecake because it's so moist and not so cheesy, which suits my taste bud perfectly! It's absolutely scrumptious! Of course, we took tons of pictures.
The reason why we chose the drink we had? It has the function of DETOX!!




This was taken when i haven't tasted that disgustinly nauseating SALMON! I hate that fish.



Then, after lunch, we shopped around the mall before heading to the place i've been wanting to go for a long long time - The National Museum of Singapore!!!!!!! I've been dying to go for the Greek Masterpieces Exhibition but just couldn't find a perfect time to go but since it's my birthday, of course we went! Below is a picture of diana and herself in the huge screen.

Excited about what we're going to withness!!
Oh yes, we found ourselves partners in, giants?! That's my beau. See, i can only kiss her nose. This is true love okay! See how she's looking at me affectionately and i'm holding her chin tenderly. Hahahahaha! Oh wait, is she flirting with that guy behind me when i'm trying to kiss her? Son of a gun! Hahahahaha. Okay, enough crapping.

This (below) has got to be one of my favourite picture of the day! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's the sculpture of Diana, the Warrior Princess.
Anyway, the moment we stepped into the exhibition hall, what we see is simply breath-taking. Everything there are so magnificent, so majestic, so breautifully sculpted and carved and they are all so precise. I'm not sure if it's allowed to post the pictures but here it goes. I love how the fact that all these are histories right in front of us, from the mythical Greek! I was literally in awe during the entire stay there.
One of my favourite.

Look at how detailed everything is! And they are all sculpted from tools thousands of years ago!!! Those artist are simply genius!



My favourite! Look at how she's like staring directly at you. And it looks like a living person, in white of course.
Then it's some photo-taking again before the battery dies out on me.

Thanks again diana for the lovely day!! I LOVE IT!!! After everything, i went over to grandma's place where she cooks mee sua for me. It's like an annual thing, where she'll cook that for me on my birthday. And i always insist on eating that, and only that, for dinner on my birthday. It's not the best tasting one, but it's one that is cooked with love. Hahahaha.
