On 21

Okay, and so I'm finally 21! Well, this doesn't make me feel any more adult actually. I reckon I'll probably feel adult when I turn 30. Haha. Yeah, however, numerically old.. i feel. There's no turning back now, the numbers will just keep on rolling by from now on. My new found song of the moment (which will last until I find another song) is 'This is your life' by Switchfoot. How app is it. I've been singing to it all day on my birthday. The chorus just keeps echoing in my head. "This is your life, are you who you want to be.." Woahh.. I'm 21 now.. have I been living the life that I want to be living? I don't want to have to realise what I want in life only when I'm 45. I want to be able to do something about it now, to be driven and led by His purpose.
On a another note, I would like to shout out a loud Thank You to everyone who made my birthday an ever so special one. Thank you
everyone for coming down to surprise me at 12a.m. itself, even when I was forcefully blindfolded, dragged out of my room and in my.. well 'almost' unglam late-night state. Especially to all the madly stressed busy-bees, I really appreciate you guys taking time off from their busy assignments n essays. Thanks heaps Mr Birthday IC Vernon (who btw is doing a fantastic job) for organising the whole thing, Miss-blew-tonnes of balloons Cherie (who helpfully yet unwillingly got rid of all 45 balloons tt filled my small room) and Miss-sick-until-want-to-die (yet ever still so supportive) Stephanie Li, for playing a part in it. Thanks Mr Pilot boy KahSian (in canada) & Mr livin' it up in UK Kaps for the expensive overseas calls. Thanks Su Ann dearie for the beautiful present and handmade card... and of course for bringing me a 'soul mate' (absorbent and yellow and porous is he..) Last but not least, Thanks everyone for all the well wishes and lovely smses that just simply made my day. Even though I'm far away from home, away from family and loved ones, I'm really grateful that God has blessed me so abundantly with wonderful, caring, loving friends here such as you guys.

Dinner at Little Creatures
Everyone did a brilliant job in turning up in sophisicated black tops and jeans! We look uniformed in colour, so stylo milo. The party hats with the neon pink feathers just killed the guys, as they were made to wear the hats all throughout dinner. Haha.. thanks guys for being such good sports.

Thanks peeps.
