good bye teenage years!

I'm no longer a teen! Finally joined the 20 years old club last saturday. First present recieved from sarah quek! She felt guilty for not being able to come for my bday celebration, so she handmade a personal pouch for me, 100% sewed! I was shocked when she handed me the present, i love it quack! thank you so muchhh :)))

Another hand-made present from felicia tan! Didn't expect a bday present from her also. Her card looks quite funny but i think it's very nice and creative. Thank you fer, love you! :)))

Followed by birthday surprise from my 3 BFFS! The 3 of them sent me bday messages at the same time, and I was like so qiao?? then feli called me and I heard sarah's laughter over the phone. spoiler sarah! haha. she called me to go down and meet them as they were waiting downstairs already. As i was expecting a nice bday cake with lighted candles, they took out a "sara lee" cake box and put on the table. I opened the box and thought that they actually baked me a cake! and the cake looks like this:

They asked me to go back home and microwave MY OWN BDAY CAKE, and I provided them with the knife and spoons also. Just didn't get to provide my own candles. And you must be wondering why am i blowing the cake and making a wish when there is no candle on my cake, they made me blow and wish upon my imaginery candles -.-" hahaha. And they bought the cake from 7-eleven. But it was unexpectedly a very nice cheesecake!

There! The cake looks nicer with some decorations on the spot. haha.

Birthday presents from them! Handmade birthday card and a green top that i wanted to buy :) Thay made me wear over my tshirt also. I like kena played by them on my birthday. haha. Let's look at their handmade birthday card:

THANK YOU BFFS for the surprise and everything that you guys planned for me! Love your card and blouse. Love you guys loads < 333

Strawberries and apples + melted chocolate: Perfect match & total goodness! THANK YOU for your sweet treat too! Really appreciated all that you've done :DDD

Had a thrisome birthday celebration with the gang on saturday! Celebrated the birthdays of kenji, me and aaron. The gang always celebrates our birthdays together since our bdays are so near to one another's. Went to Medzs at orchard central, a dining place similar to marche. They had a birthday promotion of 15% discount off total bill. So 5 of the guys started to follow me to buy food as i can get them the 15% off. Every one of them started to treat me so nicely, asking me what i wanna eat and stuff. Their motive is so obvious la. haha. And all of them charged their food to only my card. But they actually paid me back the total bill, treating me to the dinner since its my birthday! yays! Didn't regret sharing the food with them. hahaha! THANK YOU GUYS!

After dinner, they headed over to the mrt station, I actually thought they were planning to go home early. Then they said they are alighting at promenade and going to the park at mbs. In the end they went to the hotel where fer and maine were having d&d. Nice one, I like :) haha. So i get to see my bffs a short while! While the drunkards and the guys started chamwhoring there also.

See what I meant by them chamwhoring?

Thank you guys for the awesome and entertaining birthday celebration! :D

Following sunday was celebration with gof! And we went marina barrage to fly kite + SUNBURNT. Wanted to make ham+cheese sandwiches for them but i woke up late so too bad. haha. Had them waiting for me for so long, I'm so sorry guys! I went to get kites for all of you noobs okay, I do have some contributions. All of them didn't know how to fly kites, they were trying so hard to fly one kite before I come. Part of the weather's fault also that there's no wind. Their kites started to get higher and higher after several tries and when the wind comes! We didn't expect the weather to be SO HOT that day since it rained the past 2 days and all of us got sunburnt like charcoal. The chocolate layer on top of the cake which they bought for me melted so much that it doesn't even look like a cake anymore. I was like "what is that??" when they took the cake out. My birthday cakes seemed the most cui this year. hahaha. But the cake was damn nice once again! Although it's ABIT too warm. haha.

THANK YOU GOF for the birthday celebration and cake surprise! I gave you guys a great kite-flying eperience also right, forget about the sunburnt part la huh. haha. And thank you for the birthday cards and messages! Although ryan's ABIT crappy and can see that he is trying very hard to fill up the whole paper, sharon's very obvious shooting here and there, zhiyong's suaning about my lateness, dal's reminder about my age, jiayen's zai malay until i don't know how to read and don't know what she meant, sushan's first part of msg makes me wanna cry :'( but touching encouragements and wishes, and terence's best wishes. Thank you for everything :)))

THANK YOU to each and everyone's birthday wishes and messages and presents! I had a memorable 20th :D

Safety, Health & Nutritions!

I'm having safety, health and nutritions module this few weeks and it's a really fun mod! We need to take photos of the potential hazards to children at home, and i literally lay all my toys messily on the floor and took pictures of it. My family was asking me what the heck i'm doing early in the morning. hahaha. I've just found out that my house is a very dangerous place for kids, spotted so many hazards at home.

We went to health promotion board to learn about health of children, first school excursion! Truthfully, i haven been to health promotion board before and it's my first time going there. There are so many activities and games to participate in. I think kids definitely gonna have lots of fun over there because we adults enjoyed ourselves. Even the mothers were having so much fun. haha.

I like the big mouth!

Look at how happy the mothers are enjoying the games. They're so cute!

This is how I will look if i take drugs. lol.

No matter how many negative impacts i tell the men in my house, they won't quit smoking :/

FOOD FOR KIDS! Each group have to come up with a healthy and nutritious 5-day menu for childcare centres. It's such a headache to plan the menu, have so many areas to consider: the different nutrients they need, the different food groups, the appropiate servings they require O.o But i guess i learnt alot about eating and food. We have to choose a dish from our menu to cook and present it in class today. Our group's dish is: fruit crepe a.k.a Yummy Rainbow! i know it sounds lame, but it's for kids you see. haha. Photos below!

It's actually a crepe with strawberries+kiwi+mango+yoghurt+cornflakes inside. It doesn't look really appetizing here. haha. But my lecturer said that it's colourful and attractive, and the kids should love it :))) My classmates tried it and they keep coming back for more! The mothers even ask us for the recipe.

Here are what the other groups have made. Some of them are so cute and thoughtful, you can see various kinds of shapes and animals in their food. I think their food presentation is so much nicer and cuter than ours.

Bunny egg sandwich.

Yummy teddy bears pasta. This is so cute!

Clown-face Tortilla.

Heart-shaped minced meat, star-shaped mixed-grain rice.

Super mighty spaghetti.

Tropical Roll, coconut tree.

Heart-shaped egg sandwiches. Flowers, leaves and even birds using carrots.

Look at how much effort we guys put in making meals for kids. Just for them to eat their vege and food happily. But i don't think the cook in the centre will be happy in making all these food as it requires so much work. She will be the first one to object our menu. haha.

One assignment followed by another down! 3 more to go before my long-awaited holidays come. By the time my holis start, my gfs start school and most guys enter army already. Rawrrr.

Chefs in my group!

聽你說-林凡,郁可唯 HV

nice song found! Although I find the mv lame. haha.

Singapore, Happy 46th birthday!

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!

Tuesday was a public holiday and I have no school. As usual like previous years, accompanied mum to esplanade to watch ndp fireworks! We always try to apply online for the ndp tickets but just seems to have no luck in getting any ticket :( I'll definitely be more hyper at the ndp itself. But oh well, fireworks this year were really beautiful and colourful! They put up many new patterns and designs that are different from previous years. The fireworks were worth our waiting at esplanade from 3 to 6pm! You guys must be thinking that we are crazy to wait so many hours for some kind of sparks in the sky. haha.

Limited edition badge after writing some wishes for singapore birthday! It broke after only 1 hour -.-

Parachutes coming down from the sky.

The impact of the wind caused by the helicopter was so strong that the river water swirl with it and splashed onto us!

We wore red there to support! I made mum to make funny faces with me and she really did it very uglyly. haha!
There is no picture of fireworks because I was busy watching them :D

I watch ndp live every year at esplanade and I don't seem to get sick of it although most of the performances are the same every year. I guess it's because ndp is only once a year when I get to see all the military stuffs right in front of me, and that so many volunteers spent so much of their time to put up great performances for singapore's birthday. This year's ndp is another successful one!
