Uh huh. Uniform and in Sentosa. We were afterall celebrating! (:

Okay, now the words part, which after spending two hours to upload the pictures. I am indeed quite tired of sitting down staring at the screen but because unless I feel very very very motivated to blog, this will be my last blog, my last day of being aimless and the first day of something special (:

I had fun. Really, turning 18 was fun. More than I expected because of this and that and A'levels. Kahyih was positive and that was enough to motivate me along. Mr Ong was pretending to be an excellent karaoke junkie. He perfected the role. (: And we were off the the Chinese enclave in Singapore (showing off my Geog)

It was sheer madness. Running around, calling absentees for help(thanks alex!), thinking, surfing on the go and learning. I got a birthday suprise from Jingwei and Joanne. Spinelli Cake in Chinatown! Birthday song! Count the cows, share the cake, look lost for awhile. Woah. Intense (:
But it was all part of the learning journey. Learning about each other and Singapore and teachers! I had the most fun really with the class in a long long time. Thanks to the teachers' expertise we managed to manuveur around at breakneck speed. LOL (:

And then the collage, creatively disorganized i say (:

Met the gurlies there after, bought the craziest prop ever and went mad eating and playing and laughing. Jiayee has the coolest holga no sheeeeez (: a cool $100 darn. I was happy happy. And there produced a cake from the toilet. A good one I'll say (: Stuffed but oh so satisfied! I was really glad. I just felt so loved! Cheesy but so true.

Went shopping for a while and recieved a really nice card thereafter! Aww, many memories (: Saw Joel & Carissa; after tuition or something! ahha! Pleasant suprise. AGAIN! I love that day really. Then found out he was found the same church as this "Are you part of the 100k?" thing. way awesome. Heng ah. You'll laugh at my choices. No joke! :x

AH CHEW DESSERT WAS FUNNY. SOUR OR SWEET SWEET OF SOUR. GUESS PLAY LAUGH and then this michelle ah. tsk tsk! ): oh well.

I really appreciated the card and presence of everyone. I am really glad that I have such friends.
And being self centred for so long... I just really want to thank everyone! (cos I keep using "I" this, "I" that. Can't rephrase anything now, sobs)

It was humid
and there was no breeze.
We were sitting together like strangers
and yet the silence that hung around was comfortable.
The sky was cloudy and there were no signs of any stars at all.
The moon was sorely lacking and the waves, crashing barely mediocrely.
Ants were invading our territory and we unwillingly shifted away uncomfortably.
And it was just us and the mat, drinks which I couldn't buy and tiredness that was derived.
And then you said
I love you
in a whisper that I barely caught and
we embraced
and that was enough for me
because nothing esle needs to be said.

:D

This is it.
