Eighteen and Ephoric


I feel elated finally turning 18!!!! *throws confetti* *pops champagne*

The start of August has been a great one because I've been showered with so much love on my birthday. In fact I felt like a singing lark all week not only because of my birthday but because of something that I did before it!

I actually went to donate blood!!!!!! 

It's my virgin try and truthfully I was in a mix of feelings when I went through the several checks for it before I can finally donate blood but once I passed all and laid down while my blood was being drawn....... I felt wonderful, all warm and fuzzy inside. I felt as if for the first time I'm being useful to society and guess what, three more lives can now be saved just for 450ml of blood!!! I'm a lifesaver hello!!! 

On the day before my birthday I gave, and on my birthday I received

Apart from being spoilt by my family and peers, I received a whole bunch of pictures and cards (I love such stuff most) and I swear I was genuinely touched by all of them!!!!

Here's me exhibiting some amazing diaphragm power - I blew out the candles in one go!!! Now I'd get perfect points for As!

Here's Qi's gift and I love it!!!!!!!!!!!! It contains our recent memories together and I can already foresee many more pictures piling up on this lovely cork board!!

I stuck our memory board on my wardrobe amidst my abbreviated history notes... So I can see it everyday when I dress up for college :)

Thank you so much my favourite girl here's a thousand virtual kisses for you!!! 

These amazing girls from my class actually got me a pair of Converse sneakers just because I mentioned I wanted a new pair once. ONCE. My goodness, ladies! I am definitely impressed!!!

Even the card that Tealle made (alongside with everyone's well wishes) was amazing - It's about the most thoughtful card I've ever received because that silly girl actually trawled through god knows how many magazines to find cut-outs of my favourite actors and singers!!!!! 

She even managed to find a picture Jung Yonghwa wtf which mag did she even target to sniff him out???Really, I could cry buckets of tears just knowing how much effort she put into the making of this card. I'm definitely pinning this up on my wall!!!

Also special thanks to Jiayee too for taking time off to create such a colourful e-card for me!!! I knew it took you quite a while so can I plant a big, wet, sloppy kiss on you already???

And as if those magazine cut-outs and personalised e-card weren't impressive enough, Zach finally drew me my favourite DC Comics heroine Catwoman which I've been bugging him to for almost a year!!! 

A34/12, you guys make me so happy that you're almost impossible.

Spent Friday night with the best buds from Swiss! 

It was an incredible gossip club reunion, topped off with Japanese dinner, movie and endless laughter!!! Thanks Zun for the gorgeous polaroid films - They're also definitely gonna be pinned up on the wall!

You guys all score perfect points on my happy-o-meter!!!!

My birthday cake from Starbucks which Edwin stealthily bought while I was busy taking pictures.... And all of them proceeded to lure me to the washroom so that they can prepare the mini celebration. I was welcomed out of the washroom with a birthday song and......... A virtual candle. 

This bunch of people......... They are weird and filled with quirky ideas to the extent that they're adorable. And I love them so much for it!!!! A million thanks for your lovely gifts guys, I appreciate all of them really much!!!!

If you'd ask me how my birthday went I'd say it was a total blast! Just wanna say.....


To everyone who wished me Happy Birthday - I don't need any gifts, really, instead I treasure the thought more. It's really the thought that counts, and anything more than that comes as a bonus for me. For all the surprises, the birthday songs, the cakes and cards........ I can't even fathom what have I done to deserve so much from you guys. You guys had wished for me to stay happy and pretty and hell yeah that's definitely gonna be the case! Here's to being a better daughter and a better friend, pinky promise!

P.S/ Maybe next time you guys would wanna wish for me to be a billionaire soon? Just kidding! No wait, how about wishing for me to be a multi-millionaire instead? ;)
