Turning 19

Gosh.....time seriously flies. I can't believe I'm officially nineteen for 6 days already. Hahaha. Still a teen though. But like William said, its the last year i get to be 1x years old.. After that, I'll be joining the 20s club already! haha. Getting old real fast eh. =P

Well, this year's birthday was less elaborate than the previous year's...erm..actually it wasn't less elaborate..just that i didn't have a gathering like last year.But I've gotta say it's one of my best birthdays ever if not the best!!!

I just really wanna say thank you to all those who wished me in person, all those who sms-ed me..those who called,especially Jeannie who called all the way from UK! Even all those who wished me via Facebook, Friendster or by e-mail.
And last but not least,a big thank you to Josh who celebrated with me for almost the entire day.
(and even to those who couldn't remember..it's alritey! still love you all!)

I remembered all of you who wished me, by name.=D hehe. A big thank you once again. Each of your wishes meant a lot!

A big thank you to the 29 wonderful residence of Upper Six Mori, who had me taken aback when they started singing the birthday song before the 1st period of class. Thank you so much everyone! Your simple gesture really melted my heart...=)

A big thank you to Ariel a.k.a Pei Gin, Kuan Nien, Shet Teng, Wan Chen, Vivian...erm..Choi Sine and Hwa Lin too?(lol..sorry) Well, thanks a lot for your cute lil' coin bank. Wish it came with $$$ though! hahaha.Just kidding!
Also, a big thank you to Ariel,Kuan Nien, and Vivian for the card and the key chain.Really appreciate it!

A big thank you to Darmila and Jingyi for that beautiful red lamp. Love it =D And also to Darmila who actually wrote me such a meaningful card that it almost made me cry...Thanks a lot gurl!

A big thank you to Kiat Ying and Pei Yong, my darlings, haha.. who gave me a cute teddy bear multipurpose key chain..haha. It's as adorable as the both of you.^^

A big thank you to Laveena also who gave me a fish key chain. Really wasn't expecting a gift from you..but thanks so much for your thoughtfulness.It's reaaaally sweet of you.=)

Hmm..did i miss out on anyone else?

Oh yes, to Kar Wai and Dennis for the Dorothy Koomson books.
And to Kar Wai who made me such a lovely birthday card and a bookmark also.I'm sure it took a lot of effort.Thanxie!!!

And how can i forget my beloved parents and siblings! My 9 year sis actually wrote me a note with 'i love yous' and apologizing for all her misdeeds..and loads more..Couldn't resist giving her a big hug! Oh yea, she bought me an Archie's comic also.lol. My bro has yet to give me my pressies yet but thank you for wishing me yea..
And to my parents who gave me cash which is quite enough to support my expenses for shopping this time round.HAHAHA.
Love you all to bits!

And how can i forget the one person who truly made my 19th birthday such a memorable one?
Josh.

Thank you for picking me up from school on the 9th of September.
Thank you for driving me to Times Square after that..and i even managed to get a printed T- shirt there for the first time.
Thank you for bringing me to Tesco to have our lunch..as i was already starving that time. Lol.
Thank you, even though you forgot i wanted to buy chocolate waffles. ^^
Thank you for your enthusiasm about celebrating my birthday with me in the evening that you showed up on time at my doorstep when i was still struggling to find the right pair of heels to wear. =P

Well, will the 'thank yous' ever come to an end?

I'm not done yet leh...

Thank you for this,


It's so sparkly and shiny and i love it.Like they say, diamonds are a girl's best friend?haha.In my opinion,this comes close to it! hehehe. I know how much effort you put into getting me this..how much you had to save just to get this necklace which honestly,is nothing, compared to your sincerity.=) Love the fact that it has high refractiveness..shiny! (i added the 'unforgivable' strip of perfume paper there..it doesn't come with it.lol)

and

thank you for this,















You pre-ordered this clay-like deco and I must say it's soooo special! So fragile yet so pretty!



and



for reading out the poem you wrote from the gigantic birthday card.


And finally, thank you for ending the day by singing me your own version of 'Happy Birthday' with your own recorded playing on the piano.=D

I really feel indebted to Josh cuz he even went to the extent of modifying the traditional bday song and playing it on the piano, recording it and then singing according to the tune for me. I still have the recording, but guess i won't upload it here.haha. Thank you so very much =)


The cards...


The pressies...




Thank you once again to every single person who made my 19th birthday so unforgettable!

Towards the end of 9th of Sept, Yi Li called me and then Jeannie called me a few minutes before the clock struck 12..
what better way to end my birthday right?
