Birthday 07’

Birthdays have never been a very important occasion for me, whether its my own or other’s. The usual every year would be family dinner, and meeting my close friends for shopping and lunch or so. This year I made it a little different, for me and hopefully for my friends too.

Realizing my birthday this year lands on a Saturday, I’ve decided to call up my old pals from high school, 1 month ahead J Pre-booking is essential when it’s a major gathering with these girls whom I haven’t met altogether for nearly 2 years now…… or so I thought!


My dearie girlfriends :)

15th December, 6pm at Dome’s Café, The Curve. This is the very first time I’ve initiated others to join me for my birthday. Its really more of a get together rather than a birthday celebration. It felt great meeting up with all of them after so long. On meeting up, apparently some of them haven’t met each other at all since secondary school!?! Wow…that really means this is the first time all of us got together. Well, I’m kinda their mutual friend, we were even trying to chart out our how we knew each other at dinner…but...its way to complicated!! We gave up! :)

Well, most importantly we’re sitting at a table, enjoying our meal…


Me n my spaghetti bologese..


Guat Ching's...spaghetti with....carbonara? I dun remember :)


The ever-so-famous-for Mushroom Pie @ Dome's


Chicken bites? Looks so-so, but it was good :) Just a little dry...

Oh...yum!!... *burp* sooo full! As we wanted to move on for another drinks n cake session at Secret Recipe, my dearie friends gave me a surprise??


Haven't had a cake for awhile now...cake is not really a tradition for me..

Wow! Thanks girls! I really wasn't expecting anything....


Can't deny I was a little touched ....


Thank you :)


Friendy war... not killing each other! hehe..

Thank you girls, for all the prezzies, for the cake and the dinner! Muaks!

And we went crazy snapping away :D

Happily Ever After

Their wedding bells rang on 27th October 07'. It was quite an aspiring wedding dinner. Very grand, very pretty, very well decorated.

The Wedding Ballroom






The Decor




The morning ceremony was a handful...being the bride's sister, it was unavoidable to be running around handling everything else for the bride. But there's always family picture time after tea ceremony :)

Sisters...


The highlight of the night was thanking everyone who came, immediate family on stage.

The newly weds


Parents


and sisters again...


There really wasn't many pictures of me as I was busy walking around, organizing seats, ushering relatives..basically doing a lot of walking exercise!

And since the make up artist gave me a free makeup (as part of my sister's wedding package), here's a real close-up...but caught when i was a weeee bit in the sentimental mood :P



Well, my brother-in-law put on a little performance, singing 4 love songs and gave speeches about his love and family, and everyone started dabbing their eyes with tissue :)

A very tiring day...in fact very tiring week is more like it. So much to help out at home, so much to do at work..I was feeling very exhausted, but good that it went well.

Here's wishing all the happiness in the world for them! :)
