I'm supposed to be doing my
commonwealth essay but I just cannot seem to get started. School starts TOMORROW. sigh.My cousin had his engagment party last night and I've got to go for some registration ceremony thing later. He wont have his wedding untill later this year just because all the coolest places have already been booked. haha how typical. Talked to Gavin about my essay last night (or rather, this morning) and now I actually have something to write about! Chen tried to help but all he came up with was this:
How am I supposed to be inspired by a bunch of candles?! Apparently it was something he made for his girlfriend for her birthday. How sweet. Didn't know that he had it in him.
Anyway, Chinese New Year was a blast! A whole week of eating, collecting money, the occasional gamble and a reason to look your best everyday. Will post picture of me in yukata soon (for beebee) . The shanghai Red lipstick was awesome!
and will post pictures from my birthday as soon as I receive them from Kwong.
Thank You all SOOOO Much for everyrhing you've done! The banner, cake, presents, video bla bla bla. It was all wonderful and really made everything perfect. with, of course the HUGE blemish that stef and sarah could not come but that was inevitable. Oh and I've got to post pictures of my presents because sarah has not seen them. Once again, so much has happened since my last post (maybe I should update more frequently)
1.Wei Jin and I are 17 =(
2.I'm now the proud owner of a hair iron straightener thing
3. Kwong is now back in Aussie =(
4.I'm probably 5 inches wider
5.I can now more or less understand whats going on at a mahjong game! (still a little hazy though)
6. My cousin's engaged or rather, registered (apparently this still allows you to receive angpows and exempts you from giving out any because you have not had the banquet and tea ceremony)
7.Pin Ruh's back from Shanghai!
and so on. cant really remember everything. =)
I'm actually reading A Short History of nearly Everything. (courtesy Of the school library) and it is surprisingly good. Jianhua told me it was dead boring, but its NOT. Its actually quite funny.
oh and I went to BSC the other day to do some food shopping and.........
BOOKBINDERS IS OPEN THERE (or rather has just been opened) I LOVE THEIR ORGANISERS!!!!! AND its cheaper than singapore!!! (only slightly though, but the point is: THEY'RE HERE) mummy generously bought me an organizer as I was broke from all the food shopping. I wanted to cook a four-course dinner and everything amounted to almost 200 dollars. I didn't go to chen's house so that i could cook. =(. But dinner was really good. appetizer: marinated mushrooms and French onion soup Main courses: ravioli in white clam sauce and Cod cooked in lemon and thyme Dessert: peach sherbert. yum yum yum yum. My family loved it too (except I'm the only one who loves Cod fish) Oh and I've Finally watched memoirs of a Geisha (loved the setting and gong li was hot but acting was weird and aren't her eyes supposed to be grey??)And I've Finally watched
PRIDE & PREJUDICE and i lllove it!!!!!Elizabeth is pretty and jane is so sweet. Pemberley is GORGEOUS!!!! script was excellent and MR. Darcy is absolutely wonderful.
Blogger is being difficult and refuses to upload any pictures. *glares at blogger
"You have bewitched me body and soul, and i Love...I Love...I Love you. I never wish to be parted from you as of this day." (or something along those lines)
Oh! Swoonesssigh......must bugger off for registration thing.........
