So yeh...finally turned 21 yesterday....it's really n bid deal.Just turning another year older and there were no fireworks just because u turn 21.Got some wishes from some people that i didn't expect to know or remember and it gave me this "feel good" feeling.The first one was from Valerie (didn't know that she knew) and then Vincent (his birthday is the same as mine!), and then Hanim (who despite all the years we've been apart have NEVER forgotten my birthday!reli appreciate it!). Then got one from Hanis (my cuzzie who has the same birthday as moi!), and Ken from AIA. Got one from Eileen thru Friendster....and then that's about it.AND all these have made me realise that guy friends only remember their girlfriend's birthday (HINT:Irwan did not give me any wishes.I am gonna make damn sur that i will try my best to forget his birthday next year!) and that sometimes you really shouldn't expect your close friends to remember your birthday...coz u know sometimes pple just "forget"...but if u r a real friend...u don't forget milestones such as your friend's 21st birthday....which also made me think if i REALLY do have such things as real friends or the people ard me r just there out of convinience.Like they need me because they need relationship advise so they stick around...or i am the only one who knows how to ahve fun...so they stick around.They are not around u because you're a friend.They're around u because thay can use you...But of course i DO NOT want to jeopardise my friendship with anyone because friendship is important to me but well of course i'm leaving Irwan out...he is definitely out of my 'Friends' list...And yah...theseare the exact names of pple who gave me greetings yesterday!
Well no one cld beat kak Wai for wishing days in advance (LOLX!) and no one cld beat birthday greeting from his/her own family members....gives you warmth in the stomach...
Oh of course all the presents from Nisa's family...they never fail to make me happy with all their presents!And little Nisa of course for making me a beautiful card.That girl can be a little devil...but she's really an angel in disguise (LOLX!).
So what i did yesterday?Woke up in the morning and then little Nisa wants to go swimming.So we went swimming for a little while and then bought Burger King & McDona;d's for breakfast.After putting Nisa to sleep,Effa and me went to Republic Plaza to get my birthday present and i am so loving me new Roxy wallet!Thks to Effa and Nur!And then we went to Kinokuniya coz Effa wants the new Neil Humphrey's book and tehn she remembered that Neil is going to be in Kinokuniya at 130pm.True enough!There was a long queue for his autograph so Effa and i end up queueing for abot 1hr++.
This is effa n Neil!
This is the poster that she got with his autograph...i didnt take a picture of the autograph on his book that Effa owns now...
And then for dinner,my family and i went to Swensen's and we had a GOOD meal!The ice-cream was good!
So that's it!That's my 21st Birthday celebration!
Cake from julyn!In the office on Friday!
Nisa with her Volcano!!!!!
My Biyutiful wallet n the bear that little Nisa gave!

The Art of ConfidenceI suddenly started to come out with my own theory.I think that the thing that made Reza so attracted to Putri is her confidence.Her oh so big confidence!She put herself through shame trying to win her ex-boyfriend back but the confidence that she had is just kinda strong and it overshadows her embarassment.I'm sure it was her confidence that made Reza notice her!
If you don't have the confidence in anything especially yourself...then no one will notice you!Being confidence is all YOU!No matter how much your friend or family tell you they like you the way u are, when it comes to confidence, it's about you making sure that you have it. If you're not doing something about your self-esteem, it means that you're not caring about yourself.Like leading a pitiful life....
From now on i will try not to scold anyone about something if me myself is doing it.Like as an example, i scold a friend for being late for a meet-up session but i am myself doing it by being late teh next time or something.It's contradicting when u try to tell someoen not to do somthing coz it's bad but you're actually doing it.

So my parts of my leg are bruised because of that bicycle!What did i get myself into asking my dad for a bigger bicycle for my 21st birthday!WHAT WAS I THINKING!!!!!First of all...i have to admit that i don't really know how to.I'll tell you...just give me a car anytime and i'll drive!Don't give me a bicycle!Driving a car is so much easier.The car is easier to sontrol.
But maybe because i am not use to cycling yet.I'm determined!Erm...but my legs are a lil sore now!
Speaking of 21st...ya pple mine is coming so send in the bouquets and presents to me.Send it to OCBC centre,65 Chulia Street,22nd floor,west lobby!(LOLX!I'm so thick skin!)

Well there was nothing interesting happenings....so i didn't type out any entry for a week.Maybe because there was no football action?
Well i got myself sick on Thursaday.It actually started on Tuesday when i feel like my throat was feeling kinda sore.So i thought i should just drink lots of water and i'll be ok.on Wednesday it was still sore and i thought that going to the doctor for a sore throat is a waste of money.
Then on Thursday about 5pm..i started to shiver in the office.I was thinking..."Wah...the office is so cold!" It has been cold since forever but i HAVE NEVER shivered...so i start to wonder that maybe i was having a fever.Went home and my temperature was 39.7 degrees celsius.Went to the doctor straight away and he said that it was my throat infection that caused the fever!Oh it was horrible!I don't like it when i have a fever.There's just no way of curing it properly coz i'm allergic to most antibiotics and medicines!
But feeling pretty good now.I had to sacrifice Pirates of the Caribbean with Yanping and a lunch outing with my BD mates whom i truly miss so much...all these sacrifice so that i can be better....

Puke all you wants suckers!This guy is totally cute!Love his eyes!LOLX!
Tomorrow's gonna be one massive night.I dunno how i'm gonna do it but we'll see...Can't wait...but at the same time i wish that this wouldn't have to happen!

Do you have a headache because you're having TOO MUCH sleep?
Do you suddenly feel your heart aching looking at the Sports pages in the newspaper?
Do you feel happy, sad, joyous and just simply a lil jumpy ALL AT THE SAME TIME?
My answer is yes to all of these questions and NO i did not phrase the first question wrongly.World Cup Withdrawal Symptoms (WCWS)....this is what i'm having.I am more attached to this year's World Cup because the passion grew...maybe it's al so because all those boys in class made me feel that i really love football...i'm not gonna say soccer anymore...it's so American!
Well as i was saying...in 2002 i did watch the World Cup but that was it...just watching.But this year,as i saw Argentina and England made their exit...i feel like my heart was broken along with Ayala's, Terry's, Beckham's and Riquelme's.
Aargghh and i so DISLIKE all those people at work who keep saying they lost money becoz they bet on France.Can't Singaporeans just put their money aside and just enjoy the game for the sake of the game and not because they want to keep up on how much they're losing?

CONGRATULATIONS ITALY!
My Favourite Pictures of the 18th World Cup

I wanted to write about how happy i was Portugal and Germany were eliminated from reaching the World Cup finals.but the days go by so fast and then now i end up here already knowing that Germany is in 3rd place.Well good for them coz i don't want Portugal to get the medal anyway.
So now it's up to Italy and France and i have an article to hand up!I'm working by the hour and i hope to hand it up to Kiwibox on monday morning but that is so impossible.So i'm opting for Monday night instead and i'm hoping that i won't have to do OT.Not planning to anyway.
So yesterday went shopping with yanping and at the last minute,Ben couldn't join us as he have to return back to camp.So this is probably the first time Yanping spen so much more than me!She keep spending and spnding and i was like...'what is she doing?'...coz i hv never seen her spend so much.In our days spending weekends to gether to shop...i always go over the top and keep hitting the cash register very five shops we went into...but yesterday it was Yanping all the way!LOLX!
Can't believe that the World Cup is going to be over in a few hours!Thinking back at the day when i said "9June is here!The World Cup is here!Finally" to my sister....and now it's all over?With many disappointments and lots of upsets over at my side....i just couldn't wait for 2010 at South Africa.I may still have not enough money to go there and catch it but i am promising myself to save lots of money and get hold of all the merchandises i can get.Adidas sells really nice country jacket and i want to get a hold of Argentina....Let me have Argentina....pretty please!

So the dilemma came to me at abt 829pm on Sunday when i was watching good TV.Oh what a bummer!Now i have to parties to go to and i dunno which one i should go to...
Part of me wants to go for both and the other part tells me to pick one!If i have to make my decision right now...i'll say got to Michelle's...coz the other party...well the people involved...they're not my friend anymore....it just won't be comfortable...

Another late night and another BIG disappointment.But as many predicted,England have alread start packing their bags as of now.What a way to lose!And as for my blog title...only those of you who watched the match will understand.I don't want to go thru all the trouble and expain what had happened.It's just a waste of my precious time.
Am i sad?yes i am.Now both of my favourite teams have gone home.There goes
MY World Cup dreams...Alan Shearer is right...Rooney should stick one up Ronaldo's ass when they come back to Manchester United.Christiano is simply too much.Like some fans say..."We don't hate him..we despise him!!!"
But who's to blame?Everyone asks this question.I BLAME SVEN GORAN ERIKSSON!For bringing in such a pitiful squad.AND I JUST DISLIKE PETER CROUCH!He shouldn't be a striker.He is such a hindrance!
But hey...there's something i can celebrate about.Brazil is out of the runnng to win teh World Cup!!!Isn't this just brilliant?Woohoo!!!!!So now...all i want is Germany and Portugal to be eliminated!Germany for beating Argentina and Porrtugal for beating England.I'm rooting for France now...

Dejected...disappointed...and utterly feeling miserable.When Ayala missed that goal,my heart sank.When Cambiossa missed his,it was like the Titanic hitting that iceberg and just kept sinking and sinking.
My sis got her wish of witnessing a penalty shootout.She said that watching penalty shootouts that doesn't concern your favourite team is 'shiok'.It wasn't for me...it was agony.Biting my fingers and there's just a lot of anger and animosity. My sis keep making conersations after that but i really ahve no mood to talk!
Yup...i cried for Argentina as i laid my head down on my pillow at about 145AM.What a way to lose.It's just unfair.I hate Klose...i hate Podolski...i just hate Ballack & Co.PISS OFF!!!!!
Suddenly Argentina has become my first priority.Maybe becoz i didnt harbour hopes on England to win the World Cup becoz of the way they play.But Argentina was great!Their passing in their opponent's penalty box was brilliant EVERY SINGLE TIME.And then that bloody Klose have to score it was totally heartbreaking...
