a blast for a weekend!

so now i'm 21 years old... had a really interesting and fun filled weekend to celebrate it too! friday afternoon went out for lunch at billy bombers at the cathay with wendy and her parents, then we went to the singapore flyer!!! never thought i'd actually go up that thing for free, but wendy's dad had free tickets, so why not? hahaha got a nice view of the singapore skyline, and you can really see malaysia and indonesia from up there! anyway... the coolest part about the whole thing to me is that you can actually see the mess that's going on at the IR site, and marina south. you can really see above the mess and towering cranes, and look down at the ecp and the cars on it hahaha i'm trying to imagine what the IR will look like when it's completed from up there, with all the lights and colours, it should be really nice =) oh and the floating platform used for NDP last year, is now a SOCCER FIELD!!! when i first saw it i thought i was seeing things hahaha wonder what'll happen if the water gets a bit choppy and the winds pick up. sea sick soccer players? =p

at night i went to carnivore at vivocity with my dad and wendy. my mum was overseas on work. if only i didn't have so much lunch to eat, i could've eaten alot more. it was like heaven man! meat coming at you from all directions, and the greens were totally out of the picture hahaha but somehow towards the end the quality of the food went down a little bit. luckily i was already full by then hahaha chicken, pork, beef, mutton, fish... meat meat meat! ultra high protein diet hahaha ok lah i did get SOME carbo in the form of bread, which also came around on skewers. the only thing i didn't try was the chicken heart. and it wasn't clearing too quickly either since the poor guy was walking round and round the restaurant and it hardly got taken.

saturday was probably my best saturday man hahaha granted it was tiring cos i had to wake up really early to pick my mum up from the airport. got back home just before 7. after lunch wendy and i went to watch street kings. it was an alright movie... somehow i still see keanu reeves in his matrix role. and in this movie he's packing lots of guns again hahaha the last standing gun fighter. sounds so much like the old west... but it looked rather cool either way. after that we walked around PS for a while cos wendy wanted to buy some stuff. then we went to her home because she wanted to get some stuff too... then my mum sent me a funny message saying "can you stall him. we're not ready yet" then some bells in my head started to ring hahaha SOMETHING WAS GOING ON AT MY HOUSE! then my mum called me to ask me to buy some hairspray! hmmm... that part was alright but somehow i heard some maniacal female laughter in the background, which obviously didn't sound like the tv or radio or any other person in my house. plus it didn't help when my mum was talking to me and wendy suddenly ran down the stairs, opened the car door and took the phone away from me hahaha ok lah it was my classmates trying to surprise me. it worked quite well... up till the point where everyone started panicking because i was going to be home too soon and not everyone was there yet hahaha got home to see a nice nija turtle performance, nicer cake, and a crazy wassup... 5t19 wassup hahaha first one in don't know how long. got it all on video too... and of course a wassup isn't complete until derek has one too, so after they got me, they got derek! hahaha

derek u better watch out man... your birthday is next. don't know how many you're going to get =p just imagine... u're turning 21!!! hahaha

they ordered a hell lot of pizza, some of which is still in my fridge, and got me a damn nice billabong leather wallet. it was a good thing josh works with my mum and they know wendy so it's really quite easy to get info about me and get accomplices hahaha all in all, thanks to josh, derek, koon, louis, vig, mr kwee, clar, many, tini, chip, shufang and cheryl. of the whole group i hadn't seen cheryl for the longest. she's been disappearing for quite a while hahaha and cheryl drove a FORD here... if u'll remember what i wrote about fords earlier, maybe you'll know how absolutely sorry i feel for her hahaha i love t19... never fail to brighten up the darkest, gloomiest (warning... word might not exist in dictionary), most pathetic of days =) thanks to you all so so much!!! my first surprise birthday party ever! hahaha

on sunday my parents helped me organise a family gathering... a rather LARGE family gathering. grandparents, uncles, aunties, cousins, parents cousins, the whole mix. it was really quite intimidating hahaha but at least that's all over and done with. got alot of hong baos. much much more than i expected i'd get. going to the bank i was damn scared someone would try to rob me or something hahaha in the evening i went over to josh's place to pass him something, and of course no point going to his house without playing his xbox right? hahaha devil may cry 4 is damn cool! but somehow... god of war is still the coolest! hahaha the combos on dmc4 aren't as spectacular as gow... graphics their about the same, but must remember that gow was on the ps2 platform. and it already really ahead of it's time.

my sister sent me an icecream cake from swensens too! big oreo cake hahaha thanks sis =)

happy happy birthday indeed. and now i just gotta settle my NTU stuff... forgot my damn pin. i'm such an idiot...
