My 20th.

Firstly, i'd like to say a big THANK YOU to all those people who sent me birthday greetings!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! i was seriously seriously damned touched lar..! i LOVE you guys!! and then, the present that i got from the Alco-Crew-Langkawi-minus-1 was simply divine! i can't believe that you HongYin orchestrated the whole thing and all these while you guys were keeping it a secret from me...maaan...it shows how trusting i am with all you people..i got SCHEMED! but yea..i LOVED it..i LOVE IT! and it's already been hung up..so THANKS GUYs!

You can tell how thankful i am and how much i love you guys by the over-excessive bigbig words.



It's a string of photographs of Yihaur, Waiking, WengYew, Nikki, HongYin, Lily and Daniel..each one spelling out my name..HOW SWEET! and how lucky my name has 7 letters..

anyway, moving on...

In the words of Waiking: "It Was A Blasphemous Weekend."

the whole of Saturday and Sunday basically revolved around food, alcohol, more food and even more alcohol. oh..and the occasional laughter and happy-snap-cameras. for once, i'm truly amazed. the amounts of alcohol consumed was OBSCENE to put it mildly...and the food...glorious, unbridled, melts-on-your-tongue-like-butter.

okok..i'll put in a little more detail..i still feel a bit sick in the stomach, so bear with me.

for saturday lunch, we gorged ourselves with dimsum because Hong Yin demanded 'pai-kuat'. for dinner, we went to Lowenbrau, a german beergarden...yeaa...the food at Lowenbrau was nothing short of fantastic..i think all three of us were pretty much SATISFIED and then some with the quality of the food. and the beer..please..let me just savour the memory of the beer.. mmm-mm.


we started off with the 300ml glasses.


then we realised it just wasn't enough.

after dinner..we went to Skygarden, a roof-top bar which can be equalled to the Luna Bar of Sydney, though not as high-up and not as..classy? but the patio was amazing, just that they had to bar up a good portion of it for fear that someone might actually dive out from the balcony and die.

the next morning, there was more eating to be had. went down to the Fish Market for sashimi, oysters, general seafood platter...all very well. and just what we needed after a night out.



then there was desert...Passionflower ice-cream rocks. really. their greentea and rose-lychee combo is tres magnifique! 6 scoops...i had 6 fcuking scoops...but i don't care. it's my birthday.



so...hmm...the tally. i can confidently say that, throughout the weekend, a total of 3 bottles of wine, 2 litres of Lowenbrau beer, at least 5 bottles of Corona, 1 bottle of Hoegaarden, 6 shots of tequila and a JD&Coke (is that right??) was consumed. it was a collective group effort. i know i shouldn't be publishing such information..but it's just too damned unbelievable.

a befitting start to adulthood, don't you think?



p.s...i didn't get a birthday cake for my 20th birthday!

Mel... we spent so much time and effort on the present that we were too broke to buy a cake for you. :)
