Advance Birthday... at VIVO

Sunday

Went out w/ my family to celebrate my birthday in

advance.

Took us a long time to decide where to go...

To make things easier we went to VIVO,

since both of my parents and my younger brother

have never been there before.

Actually we wanted to eat at Earle's swensen

(correct spelling ?) but it looks so not halal so

we settle down at the place next to it, Fig&Olive.

Had a hard time deciding what to eat. So I chose

something which has a picture in it... hahahha...

I ordered..... shit i cant remember... something named

"cyprus steak" or something like tat...

Mine...

Ours...

Can't wait huh ?

Next...

Walked around the place... but didnt covered all.

Duh! they were quite amazed by the size of the place...

Went outside to snap some pictures... for memories...

thats my family "habit"...

once you went to tat place before, they will stike off

that place... so we might go there as a family again in like,

5 years ? I've been keeping a record...

Sentosa, 2005

East Coast Park, 2002

Botanic gardens, 1989

...and etc... etc...

Better enjoy while we can...

First timers...

Me and younger Sis...

Siblings...

Went to buy cake somewhere at Jurong West...

Decided to write a few words on the cake...

hahahaa... was quite embarassed to put 20 on it...

"quite"

Chocolate cake...

short and simple...

*Sometimes a simple thing that people do or say,

has a great impact on other people...

...making them smile,their day..etc...

Thank you to you Jun! :)

(*this is not a suicide note)

Anyway... here we go, countdown till my bday:
4 more days!
(ok ppl, its 4 more days...)

I did this so that people will stop sms-ing me with
"Happy 20th of life!" and such..
hahaha... to that person, "orite we're cool!"

"Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, START,
...just because we use cheats doesn't mean we're not smart"

Friday

After finished work at 5pm, wak and me went to

pray Asar at Temenggong mosque.

Went to park at vivo and walk ard cuz he wanted to

look at slippers...

Met w/ the rest of BlackJacks at the same mosque

for Magrib...

Waited for the rest of the bikers for a long time at vivo

and then changed location... at harbourfront MRT...

After everyone arrived, all 15 of us (6 bikes and a van).

...we set off to Changi Village...

Half of us ate Nasi Ayam Penyet, some briyani, some seafood.

When all of us finished eating, we went to pasir ris...

and ended up going to the "Red House"... hmm yelah...

Reached there at 1am...

Supposed to be haunted or something... but we found nothing.

Maybe because there were already 15 ghouls at that place...

Decided not to go home juz yet, although it was already 2am.

Went to pasir ris park... this trail in the woods where it was

sssoooo dark... again didnt find anything...

Send some of them back and we went our separate ways...

Reached home at 3am...

Crazy, easy going and happy-go-lucky bunch of wacky people I met...

After eating our dinner...

Before our dinner...

The 15 of us...

"Looking forward to another outing like this one..."

A day in Malacca

Thursday

3 families decided to go to Malacca one fine holiday.

The 3 convoys...

Met the cousins at Tempat Rehat Gelang Patah...

Wanted to buy some coffee for the long trip...

Approx. 2hours... 200km...

Found out that they don't use one dollar coins anymore :X

After the meet-up, the convoys move out...

I was behind the wheel... I thought 2 hours was short

but it made my legs numb...

Cruising at 110-130kmh was exhilarating...

The scenary was nice to look at too...

When we reached Malacca, we parked at Makhota Parade.

Ok I look short here...

Ate at Kenny Rogers...

Mr Rogers...

Yummy...

What a spread...

Muffins...

Funny names for drinks, the 4 seasons...

Walked around and shopped... was feeling

sleepy from driving from 8.30am to 10.30am...

Went to another shopping centre, dunno wat its called.

More shopping...

Getting hungry again...

Went to sholat first...

Then off to Umbai...

For ikan bakar... ouuuiii...

Tak sabar ke ?

Ate alot of things...

Everything goes...

The trip may seems boring...

but it was fun... imagine if we've stayed

for 2 days or 3... ouuuiii...

Went back home... damn freaking dark

seh the roads... scaryyy...

ok... pics... as usual...

Ok... maybe we look somewhat alike...

Mum and Dad...

Tak pernah nampak bumboat ke ?

Cousins...

Picture of the day:

"I admit I can't wait for Saturday..."

Crocodile...

Met Luqluq at CCK at 3.30pm...
Was supposed to meet him at 3pm...
so he took the LRT for like 2 rounds ?
Sedihnyeee...

Firstly we went to Bukit Panjang Plaza.
We were there as "Mystery Shoppers"
for Crocodile...
Went looking around and after taking
note of things, we did the evaluation
and off to Lot 1 at CCK.

The third location was at Bukit Batok's
West Mall...

Last but not least was Boon Lay's
Jurong Point. After everything, I am
proud to say that JP's Crocodile is the
best...

Luq bought a top from that shop!
I am soooo jealous...
Ate McD's again for 2 days straight...

I'm sorry Farah but I have to tell you that
apparently Sylar has a gf...
(Luq was laughing like mad... and I have
evidence of their relationship...)

Went home at around 8pm++...
