17aug08.
got woken up at like 10am by mom (argh) but wow! Ms Lim made me a mango cake! :D havent tried it yet though. haha. but i love mango cakeeee.

baby arrived about.. 1? cant really remember. brought me pretty flowers! thanks! :D then got prepared, collected the satay from the market and sped down in my uncle's car to Cashew Heights (samantha's place) for the bbqqqqqq.

went for sauna with sam first, but after 5mins in there we changed to steam bath instead hahaha. we were like playing tic tac toe and writing words on the glass with the steam -.- then bathed, went up to put our stuff and woo down to the pit! picts taken by samantha, i totally need a lanyard.

the roundish brown stuff are mushrooms. wtf who barbecues mushrooms?!

master cooks at work :o

ALL THE FOOD LOL

soon it got dark, ken alex jy & broderick decided to come down to pass me present (thanks!) and my mom forced them to eat cause there was alot of food hahaha.

I TOTALLY LOVE THIS PICTUREEEE. +fave!
WOW my family is so big. haha.
1st row: Brendan, Jernel, Grandma, Me, Samantha, Ah girl, my Mommm
2nd row: Uncle David (Shu Shu), Bishan ku ku, Pek Wei, Auntie Atalie (Ah Sim), Hong Yang, Auntie Judy (Small), Auntie Angela (Angie ku ku), Uncle Eric, Andre! (my hotass brother)

suuuuuper creamy. and super full after all the food D:
we were all wondering what the little triangularish cone thing was. haha. apparently there's one in every rose to support it. i concluded it's those wafer thingys that they used to use to make fake flowers on cakes? anyway i thought the cake looked rather.. wedding-ish. haha. presentsssss :) thanks everyone! and this little device was from the nanhua guys. at first i thought it was quite weird haha but after playing with it for a while i kinda like it :) it's like a... music thingy? you turn the handle and the round part moves and the little dots on the round part lifts up the keys and when it drops it makes sound :D love looking at the keys hahaha.

once again, thanks to all who helped make the party a success!

to Uncle Eric & Angie ku ku & Samantha, who was the master chef, provided the tongs and charcoal stuff and got the venue,
to Shu Shu & Ah Sim who brought the drinks,
to Small for ordering the cake, the food, buying the party stuff and all,
to Bishan ku ku who took time off to come,

and lastly
to my lovely mother who helped to put all of this together!!
thanks mom :D

& as i sat in the middle of everyone and everything, listening to the song that they were singing, i felt a sudden emotion overcome me; happiness. it touched my heart to know that we were all together for one purpose, like pieces to a puzzle. i totally love this family :)
