a very belated birthay celebration for Shun An 18th Birthday which falls on the 3rd of June. we were 3 weeks late, ohhhhh =/
Xue Ni and me went down to meet Ginnette at Plaza Singapura straight after work, and we did our very last minute of pasting the birthday messages to the photos board that we made for him at one corner of the Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station =S.
we had a hard time hiding the board because it was way too big. and so we just used Xue Ni's jacket to cover it xD
i remembered i informed Edmund to queue up at Astons first with Shun An. but that Edmund was late. very very late. he appeared after one hour later or so. wahhh!!! NO SHAME!!
Astons @ The Cathay
queueing...
still queueing...
the waitress took our order first while we were still queueing..
after queueing for a very long time, we finally got to step into the place. finally got a table. finally got to sit down xD FINALLY!~
we quickly grabbed the sofa seats and let the poor birthday boy sit solo at the aisle. it's a special seat for you, you should be honoured xD
we waited patiently for our foods to come. i'm starvinggggggg!!
hoho. we got the sofa seats =D
and our delicious foods arrived shortly after. smell nice, taste good! a meal treated by all of us to the birthday boy =D
my order:
Black Pepper Chicken with Onion Ring & Fries as my side order.
and that's theirs order xD
a shot with our food
we left Astons after eating. we were deciding how and when to give a surprise to Shun An. shats, we came unprepared! no plan at all =/. we just randomly loitered at The Cathay, and out of nowhere, we were at the top level outside The Cathay Cineplex looking at the movie trailer.
and so, i made eye-contact with Edmund, wink-wink here, blinking my eyes and hinting him. luckily Edmund was smart enough to get my hint and lure Shun An away. smart boy!
i had no idea how he's going to handle Shun An to make sure he would not turn back and look at us. i only know Edmund just brought him towards the cinema candybar and was talking random rubbish and crap with him. comparing the popcorn price & ticket pricewith GV? looking at their popcorn combo set? Nacho set? Jumbo Hotdog set? Kudos to Edmund!! haha
and back to us, while they were romantically walking towards the candybar. Ginnette and Xue Ni quickly removed the big big plastic bag of the board, and also our Birthday Cookie for him. hiding ourselves behind the pillar waiting for Edmund to bring the birthday boy back =)
and DA-DA-DANG-DANG!!!!!!!!!
the birthday boy with our prepared
Birthday Photos board & Birthday Cookie!!
the individual message from ALL OF US!!!
Edmund. Ginnette. Joshua. Moo. Xue Ni and ME!!!
the board that we spent hours doing =D
and the cookie that we bought from Asian Bakes!
Marvellous person =X
and an individual shot with each of us.
Happy 18th Birthday, Shun An xDi totally love the background. it made our photos turned out to be so nice xD
after that, we went over to Plaza Singapura to walk around, especially to their favourite Anime shop. i saw this funny toy of a resting Ponyo. and Edmund and me kept on imitating the pose to irritate Xue Ni. oh well, we posed like retarted instead =/
we thought of catching a late night movie, but i don't want to end up walking home again =S hahaha. and so, we gave it a miss. paiseh people =X
we went down to Sweet Talk to buy bubble tea because Xue Ni was craving for that. and it ended up with all of us buying it with her. lol. INFLUENCE by her. i seldom drink bubble tea, you see!! haha.
what funny was.... i bought Passionfruit Red Rea with Koko Jelly.. totally the same as Xue Ni. they thought i copied her, but i didn't. it happened that we had the same taste! haha. no wonder you are my "mum" haha. like mother, like daughter.
Bubble Tea!!
and finally home sweet home. it's a tired but happy and an enjoyable day with Epsilons!! haha

19th June 2010 - Saturday
and finally, after our Night Cycling with the Woodlands YEC people, they had another event coming up - Stargazing @ Sister's Island. it was actually organised by the Woodlands INC, Admiral Garden Astronomy Club and Woodlands YEC.
the usual of us (Cosca members) signed up for the event, but Edmund could not make it last minute, and so Joshua found his friend, Genevieve, to replace him.
before the event, we decided to make full use of the whole afternoon to make Shun An's belated 18th birthday present. we met up at Ginnette's house, and we spent quite a long time choosing 12 photos out from like over 100 of photos. *phew*
and when we were done with it, we still have to make our way to Bukit Merah Central to get those photos printed out. well, i didn't know smaller photos were much more expensive than the normal 4R one =/ but no choice, because our board couldn't fit so many 4R photos!!!
it's a must-spend money $_$ LOL
than, we have to take bus back to Ginnette's house. like lame!~ haha
and..... it's time to get work!!!! we were actually fighting against time because we have to leave the house at 5pm... and it's already 3.45pm when we were only just about to start. oh shit!
photos... and more photos of Shun An xD
Xue Ni and me were so hardworking eh!!!
we had quite a hard time designing and decorating the board, cutting and glueing the paper, etc. and not forgetting the burning of paper, which dirtied Ginnette's toilet sink *oops*. haha. Joshua came shortly after, and did a little help out with our board. we even include Koko's feather too! haha. *Koko wanted to wish Shun An happy birthday as well* LOL
we were so into the decorating until we totally forgot about the time. it was already 5pm when we looked at the clock. quickly did our finalising of job, Ginnette rushed to bathe, and we cleared the mess that we made.
birthday present DONE!
just left with the pasting of individual message part!
we left the house at around 5.40pm and took a cab down to Marina Bay to catch the bus service 402. luckily we managed to make it on time to catch the 6.16pm bus, the bus came early i guess. so lucky, the next bus will be at 6.48pm =S *phew*
our tickets!!!
Bus 402 with its 30 minutes interval =/
and yay, finally reached Marina South Pier. we got ourselves registered and walked around looking for food since we were pretty early and have to wait for other people to arrive.
walked around, and we decided to have our dinner at South Pier Cafe at level 2.
Marina South Pier.
my first time coming xD
ordered Seafood Hor Fun @ $3.50.
and i have lotsa prawns because Ginnette and Xue Ni all donated their prawns to me xD
SSG with our Seafood Hor Fun!
Singapore flag flew above us.
:rehearsing for NDP:
map to The Sisters Island
a group photo before we board the boat =D
and finally it's time to board the boat at around 7.05pm. it's a 30 minutes boat ride to our destination. the sky turned dark incredibly fast, it was only 7.30pm like that and the sky turned completely dark.
Entrance. yay!
boarding the boat... orange boat =)
and the required equipment for stargazing!!
they were damn heavy!!!
dark blue sky!
reached @ 7.45pm!!
Welcome to Pular Subar Laut
(Big Sister's Island)
totally pitch dark when we alighted from the boat.
the jetty was in total darkness! haha.
no street lamp by the side or what?
we made our way to our campsite, and there's actually quite alot of people camping down there. we reached our so-called campsite... which turned out to be shelter hut for us. haha. better still, don't need waste time pitching tent! lol.
and so, the 30 plus of us occupied the 4 or 5 shelters. the 6 of us had one whole shelter hut all to ourselves xD. we regarded it as our home and spent time decorating it by hanging lightsticks around it. although it did not have much help to brighten up the place at all. lol. just for the fun and joy of it xD
our hut!!
lightsticks!!
TWIST!!
u prefer legs... or fingers?
our group photo!
and then, we decided to explore the place.... especially the creepy staircase that we saw while walking to our camping area. we were quite curious where the staircase would led us to... and so we went for it.
it was soooo dark that we couldn't even see where we were walking, only surviving with 3 torchlights. finally climbed up the staircase, and infront of us was like a jungle kind of place. is this some kind of forest-bashing? i'm the only one wearing slipper oh!!~ LOL. pretty hard for me to walk. haha.
we walked in, with Moo leading the way. deeper and more deeper into the forest, until we walked until a dead end, then we u-turned back! haha. how brave are we!!!
back to our camping area. suddenyly there's someone who were camping and bbq-ing at the other side came to us and asked us whether we wanted some bbq foods as they had alot left.
lol. Jin Peng they all went to collect the food and brought it over to our hut.
Satay and Chicken Wings!
and next, stargazing time. the stars in Sisters Islands were really bright and nice. the entire sky was really dark that made it very nice to stargaze. we spotted a few horoscopes, and of course, Scorpio was the most easy to spot xD
and so, it's time to set up the telescope to see the stars even better =D
studying the stars ^^
super nice telescope xD
looking through the telescope.
we were behind wow-ing at the stars in an exaggerated way LOL
Cheers!~
group photos with Jin Peng.
HALF MOON!!!
and next, we even went down to the sea when it's low-tide. looking and hunting for beautiful sea creatures xD
looking, finding, hunting, exploring, digging and admiring!!!
Hermit Crab spotted =D
random shot.
went back to our hut when the tide is slowly coming back. it's also kinda hard for us to used the toilet as the toilet doesn't have lights at all =/ pee in total darkness?! nah~ while we were inside the cubicle, 2 people will be standing outside shining the torchlight in from the top of the door. lol. like lame!~ lol.
we took a short nap after that on the groundsheets. but was seriously attacked by ANTS!!! thanks to those food crumbs that dropped on the floor that attracted those irritating ants!
totally not in the mood to sleep, and so we decided to play Uno in the dark =D
again! Uno with the help of torchlight xD
we played like 2 rounds, couldn't help anymore. quickly went back to our hut and off to sleep at around 4.30am. i slept on the bench the whole night because i don't want to be attacked by those ants anymore. =/
woke up at around 7.15am. and catch the super beautiful sunrise!!! SUPER ROUND SUN!!!!! xD
day break time. that means i can see clearly how the entire place looked like actually! yay~
finally i got to see how those telescopes looked like =D
our shelter hut!~
and the creepy staircase we climbed last night!~
Welcome to Sisters' Islands
but i'm going back now!~ aww
MY HOME!!~
