Warning warning: this is gonna be a long post..

28 May 2008

I took my Global Context paper from 2pm to 4pm.
2 essays in 2 hrs (open book) is soooooo not enough lah!! cos its open book, so we were all sooooooooo busy including and copying everything we can find in the notes to our answer book. totally not enough time haha.
buuuuuuttt!! i managed to squeeze out the last min of my time to write 'Its my bday today!' on the last page of my answer script :) yayyy proud of myself! haha guess this will be my one and only chance to do it, because i dont think i will ever again have another exam on my birthday!! haha
glad its over, so im now left with one final paper this coming monday yahoo!!
im doomed for the paper though :( its financial engineering and i hate engineering finance :((

I had a great great dinner with the members of Student Fellowship that evening!!!
I never expected so so many people to turn up! haha
when Joanne called me out for dinner, i was thinking of maybe 3 or 4 people?
wow these people are soooo great and lovely!!!
they totally made this a special day for me :)

I have only known them for less than 4 months, but i will really really really miss their friendliness and great hospitality!! i love them all !!!

Let the pics talk~
we had it in an Italian restaurant. i forgot to remember the name.

i know now my dish is called - CALZONE! haha absolutely delicious!

Very very huge portion, but i managed to finish it ALL BY MYSELF!

haha okla okla i know its not a surprise.

And they randomly picked Melvin out to wear the necklace for me that they gave.

haha and melvin was like - huh? how to wear?

hahaha so funny!

This wonderful girl Joanne planned it all.

*hugs & kisses her*

love u babe! u made my day :) thanks so much!

I guess this will be the last time i'm meeting them in manchester.

Really really will miss their company..

They are really a great bunch of people to be with!

We'll meet again fellas!

they said they'll come to msia or singapore then meet up! yahooooo~~

And they're so generous and kind!!

I never expected any gifts from them at all!!

wow really THANK U SO MUCH GUYS!!!

29 May 2008

Went for Oriental buffet with the NUS and SMU people.

Also sort of like the last meal all 10 of us will have together in Manchester.

Oh man, i will really really really really really miss our gatherings!!!

though very often they laugh AT me :( haha glad i was ur joke, people!

hahahaha.

anyway they bought me lunch, bought me a cake, wrote me a card!!!

sooooooooo touched lah thank u thank u!!!!!!!!!

Oh and this part's really funny.

i was busy busy oh so busy talking away as usual, and then suddenly everyone on the other side of the table stared at me and started laughing. ??

then adin and sherm asked me - can u hear that?

listened closely, its a birthday song played from the speaker!!!!!!

OMGOSH SO DAMN FUNNY!!!

so throughout while the song played and replayed, our whole table was busy laughing!

hahahahaha

and then AFTER the song, they all sang me birthday songs both in English and chinese. hahahaha soooooooo funny, as lingsze said, its the first time that we sing a bday song FOLLOWING THE BEAT!! haha cos we just finished listening to the song played. haha so everyone was like - happy birthdayyyyyyyyyy... to u! happy birthdayyyyyyyyyy... to u! ...

hahahaha super funny!

Jonathan Ho who played with my camera and took random unglam shots of the rest of us, and here's an example:

I wish i can post odelia's or lingsze's unglam shots, but i dont wanna die young.

so i sacrifice my own shot.

the absent minded me left the card on the table as we left!!!!

and i was almost drowned by their complaints of me being unappreciative.

hahahaha im truly sorry guys!! i really really really ACCIDENTALLY ONE!!

okla next time i leave myself behind instead okay! haha

Anyway, i had a fabulous time with both the groups of people above.

Those are the most frequent gangs i hang out with when im in manchester.

And those away from Manchester?

ALL OF YOU HAVE MADE THIS A GREAT DAY FOR ME.
