This year's birthday has been a BIG BLAST! 2008, 20th September, 20th birthday.. I really had the best birthday celebration and surprise ever to date.. Thank you ALL for making such a day possible for me.. Here is how the wonderful day went...

Morning
Woke up at 0715 and prepared to go for a jog.. Met Rennie at 0800 and we ran from my place all the way to the end of Pasir Ris Beach and back.. Took us one and a half hours for the run.. Thank you Rennie for running slowly to run the same pace as me and to keep fit together! Hahaz.. Then we cooled down and ate bananas..

Reached home and showered, happily showering myself in the Strawberry Body Polish that i bought from Body Shop and i came out smelling like a strawberry.. Hahaz.. Went to the interchange to meet my grand-aunt and brought her to my place.. Faster change and got ready to leave as Lisa, Charity and Edwin came.. Then we headed out to lunch at Saltwater, a buffet restaurant at Changi Village Hotel..

Afternoon
Was starving by the time we reached Saltwater.. Ian had already reached when i just left home.. Sorry bro, paiseh ah.. When i saw him, i saw a cake box.. Yeah! I immediately knew he baked me something unique! Then when i opened it, this is what i saw....

IT IS BEAUTIFUL TO THE MAX RIGHT? SPECIALL MADE FOR ME ONLY!! SO FEEL THE LOVE CAN!! You SEE the flowers? It is being piped, PETAL BY PETAL! Thank you Ian, thanks for helping me fulfil a birthday wish for me.. =)Thank you for being such a great great friend/brother to me.. You have been a blessing to me.. Keep that wonderous hands of yours going yeah!!

Then we had buffet lunch which was spendid! I really enjoyed the company, food and ambience.. Thanks for coming Ian, Lisa, Charity and Edwin.. Thanks Pa, Ma and Yi Po for coming too.. Of course must extra thank my dad cause he paid for the bill.. =p

Family

Besties

Then it was cam-whore session! Started to take alot of photos, jump here and there.. It was rather unglam, but it was fun and i enjoyed it.. Thank you all for making it possible..

Then we started to head home, dropping Edwin and Ian off.. Lisa and Charity was resting in my room while i was out helping my mum with the misen place.. Then at 1600 when i was about to go with Charity and Lisa to NTUC to get the miscellaneous items, i received a SMS from Mr Poh saying he cannot come as he got called back to camp.. Wha, i was quite upset by the news... But nevermind.. 1 only mah..

Then as we were heading home from NTUC, Syafiq from band called me to say he ALSO kena caught back for duty.. Then i was like, this seems like a joke.. Then he say, he FASTING, CANNOT LIE.. So i told myself, that is true.. Double blow ah.. Nevermind..

While walking home, Nigel SMS me, say he will be late, might not even be able to make it! Wha, that was it, i snapped immediately, thinking to myself, why can't i just have a nice birthday gathering? I was seriously very very very upset..

Just nice Shi Hui called and i went to meet Hazel and her.. They got me a VERY BEAUTIFUL JACKET, with combined efforts from Candice and Swee Kee.. Thanks babes, it so TOTALLY suits me please!! ORANGE somemore! =)Makes me really happy!! Love it PLEASE!!

NICE RIGHT! COOLER THAN COOL!

When i reached home, it was time to shower and get ready to head to Edwin's place.. I was really upset that 3 people could not come.. But felt better when i saw Mark and Syafiq.. Was even happier when Mark made it to OCS! Congrats to you Sexy Stuff!!

Then we headed down to load all the items including booze into my dad's van.. Delong drove down and we headed down to Edwin's place together!! Then Norman called me to say he not coming cause he broke up with Joyce.. I got a shock please and i just told him to take care.. Joyce also not coming, so its 5 people down..

Evening
Unloaded the items and was preparing for later on.. Chat with Mark, Delong and Syafiq.. Then suddenly Lisa went out and Charity came to me, telling me that it seems her mum wants her home.. I was really worried knowing Lisa and Godma having some war.. Lisa was so pissed when she talked on the phone, and the next moment when i went out, she told me her mother wanted her home, NOW.. I was like, does she know i have a celebration and its my birthday? I was so tempted to call Godma but Lisa told me not to cause she is very mad now.. Then she walked back into the house..

I tell you, i was so about to cry already.. It is like, Lisa, one of my bestie got to go? Why? Why can't i have a normal nice gathering with people whom i care for?! Then before the tears came, Lisa came out and say she was leaving, going to take a cab home and see if she can sneak back...

Next moment, i heard popping sounds and i saw Charity and Edwin standing with the cake at the door.. THEN I SAW MR POH, CHEN PEI, SYAFIQ FROM BAND, NORMAN AND JOYCE! WHA LAU! NORMALLY IS I PRANK PEOPLE LAH, NOW I KENA KARMA! KENA PRANK TO THE MAX UNTIL I WANNA CRY SIA! When i was already so happy that almost everyone came, NIGEL popped out from the back and i swear, I SCREAMED AT THE TOP OF MY LUNGS.. I think thw whole Singapore might have heard me.. I WAS SO SO SO HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!!

I got pranked by ALL of them and the mastermind is none other than CHARITY TAN HUI SUAN aka PINK CHICKEN! Well, this has made it really a very special birthday celebration with a shock factor of 10, 10 being the highest.. Thanks ah Charity.. Really thank you.. =)

Finally it was time to eat!! Norman was great to volunteer to start the fire and Mr Poh was splendid in being the chef.. Charity and Lisa were of great help too.. =p
Hahaz.. I am so happy that everyone enjoyed themselves.. I hope you guys did? Cause i did, i was really happy..

Bottoms up!

Then after all the food, it was booze time! Hahaz.. Chen Pei started to drink shots with me lah! And by the way, my shot glasses are like double shots.. Hahaz.. Drank with Mr Poh, Chen Pei, Charity, Lisa, Mark, Nigel and Syafiq.. Kena prank again when Charity offered to drink with me.. While i drank Vodka Neat, she was drinking PLAIN WATER! Stupid me..

I think i finished about the a vodka bottle on my own lah.. Was really damn giddy but did not stop.. Somehow, the inside of me was saying go ahead Sheryl, its your birthday and you KNOW you feel like getting wasted for once.. Even though i KNOW i should stop, i did not.. Despite concerns from Nigel and Mark to not get drunk, i still went ahead..


From Prima Deli! Very nice! Love mango cake!!
Then we cut the Mango cake my mum bought for me.. It was Delicious!! Despite being so giddy, i could still walk out to pass Mr Poh, Syafiq form band and Edwin the cake.. Not bad! =)

Was mentally sober, but physically could not control myself.. After getting seated down, i started to lose it.. Could not walk straight, could not stand straight at all.. Horrible man.. Then the next thing i recall, is me puking at the drain outside Edwin's house.. I was really puking everything out man, though i can recall saying bye to Mark, Delong, Syafiq and Nigel.. Can still remember Nigel and Syafiq smoking.. Hahaz.. Then they left and Mr Poh came back with Chen Pei..

I was still puking but was lead back to the house.. Then i puked at the porch which i think about it now, it was really gross!! Edwin transported me here and there, while Chen Pei took great care of me for me to feel better.. Thank you both..

Then i stumbled my way up, was showered, and then i knocked out! Did not even know that Felix came.. Sorry Felix, invite you then i like sleeping upstairs.. Hope you enjoyed yourself.. =)

Woke up in the middle of the night, and had a short but meaningful chat with Edwin.. Finally managed to voice out how i feel, with no barriers.. Under the influence of alcohol, anything is possible!

Thank you all.. the next post is dedicated to all of you.. =)

I miss my Shanghai friends cause they took really great care of me..

I miss you, cause i don't wanna lose you.. But will i?

Just an update.

Well, last week has been a rather slack week.. Only worked on Tuesday and i fell ill after that.. Think it is the late nights and many mooncakes that i have been consuming.. Was busy doing up Charity's birthday present which i hope she loves it... And soon my birthday will come!! So exciting!! Still remember last year i celebrated my birthday overseas in Shanghai!! The mango mousse cake from Breadtalk.. Hahaz.. Nice gesture from all my internship-mates, but the cake was seriously way too moussy for me.. Hahaz... And i cannot remember is it too sour or too sweet... Hahaz..

The thought of me being overseas for my 21st birthday on 2009/2009 just kinda sucks... Its like i thought i could have a great big party for myself for the very first time, but i guess i will have to make do with the new friends that i am going to make overseas!! And i am sure Xue Ying would be there to celebrate with me... Hahaz... Think so far for what, the 20th birthday haven't even pass yet...

Well, to some people, birthdays are just a normal day.. My parents feel that way.. But to me, life is so unpredictable, you will never know if you would have the chance to celebrate anothr birthday, and even if you do, would the company of family and friends still be the same? Will they still be there for you? So yeah..

Its not about the expensive gifts, nor the expensive treats.. I am just not a materialistic girl and my friends all know that.. What matters most is the fun, joy and love that we all share.. Simple things like a handmade card or even a rock cake (hahaz) is able to make my day.. What matters most to me is my family and friends, and how much we enjoy each others company.. =)

I really miss the fun in secondary school where we would sabo one another.. The 2 birthday sabo episodes i remember the best were my birthday in Secondary 2, and Lisa's and Gim Kai's birthday in Secondary 4.. Secondary 2 was simple, yet very satisfying.. I was baked a cake that, well, did not turn out really like a cake.. Hahaz.. And was splashed with COLD water from the water cooler... It was really simple but great as i had friends around me and i seriously did not expect it...

Secondary 4 was really fun! We used ice cream and water to Sabo Lisa.. IT was damn damn funny!! And i knocked my nose when i slipped!! Hahaz!! Lisa, can REMEMBER not!! We were at the temporary holding school of Ping Yi and we had just finished band and the whole sabo episode started!! Best man!! The only thing i regret is i did not use Durian ice-cream.. Hahaz!



This year, i made presents that would last a lifetime for both my besties as i want our friendship to turn out the same way too.. =) I am so proud of the presents i made!! Hahaz. Discovered the artistic and DIY side of myself...



This week i will only be working 2 days, to cover up for my expenses i am going to spend at the end of this week.. Hahaz... Can't wait for all the gathering action that is going to happen at the end of the week!! Cannot wait for time to fly past!! Wednesday going to hang out with Charity and Lisa!! Yeah!! Saturday going to hang out with bandmates!!

Life just gets better! And i am getting fatter! Hahaz..
