De one with My 21st Birthday!

Sunny hot

Today's 21 August 2005. It marks an extremely special day as I've turned 21, the legal age. And to most of us, a very important day in our entire life.

Although the actual day occurs 12 past midnight. Yesterday night, greetings have already came in via MSN and sms (from Clara, who messaged me twice. Once in the night and once in the morning).

Yesterday evening, Sweet came down to AMK. After which we went to Toa Payoh to dine at SAKURA buffet. Paid $52 bucks for it lah! Of course we ate alot: Sushi, Shark fin's soup (not really "up-to-expectation"), Mushroom soup ("yummy"!), Seafood paper-steamboat (which Sweet thought wasn't heated enough), vegetable salad, sashimu, Tepanyaki Beef (which Sweet find it too hard) and Tepanyaki Fish (which I find it too soft), Unagi (taste abit raw) and chicken satay, fried nuggets, fried "pregnant fish", Tempura, Oyster, Mussels, Chicken Sausage, chicken Siew Mai (delicious!), Thai Chili tofu, steam fish wrap, steam cod fish. And end with dessert: Lime Cheese cake, NY cheese cake, Chocolate mousse, ice-cream..and fruits.

The food wasn't really appealing to me. But it's an experience since Sweet introduced me there. After that, Sweet and I walked around, patronising stores to entertain ourselves. Sweet got a polo Tee from Baleno, a toothbrush (for my house) and learnt about negative ions- producing "salt crystals" and all kinds of medications we've never seen before at a chinese medical store.

We went home shortly and have a wonderful night together.

When the time stuck 12 mid-night, Sweet was so lovely to be the very first person to wish me Happy 21st Birthday on the official day! (of course, I'll never forget those who wished me the night before). It was really very sweet of Sweet. The next best thing which occur on this wonderful occassion was to open my eyes in the morning and the first person I saw was Sweet with a morning kiss. My heart was overjoyed with blessed happiness. It soared when the both of us had a shower together! *face burning*

We went to have a light breakfast at the coffeeshop opposite my house. Then the both of us lover birds set off for Changi Airport (Sweet kept joking exaggeratingly along our way there, about us having to catch a flight to Australia) to eat lunch at Swensons. Sweet had Chicken thighs while I had my favourite Fish and Chips as our main course. It was accompanied by a full set meal which included a mousse cake for dessert and complimentary warm lipton tea. Of course, the highlight of the meal was the delightful Firehouse Birthday ice-cream!! I even dared Sweet to sing me a birthday song aloud. End up, Sweet only sang it softly...well.. it was smittening nonetheless! Love you, Sweet! And thanks for giving me your opinion at the perfume and cosmetic store where I got my 2nd bottle of CK summer One.

Bloated, we decided to stroll around the Budget Terminal. It was nothing but very plain terminal like any train station. You had to take a free bus shutter to and frown from Terminal 1.

After which we got bored of Airport, we took a long and drowsing bus 63 trip to Orchard. Stopped at the busstop in front of Park Mall and took a walk down to Cathay to catch "An American Huanting" at 1630hrs. Having 40 mins to spare, we went to Plaza Singapura to waste our time there.

American Huanting was a hard-to-understand movie. However, the effects were horrifying and heart-gasping. It was about this girl, Betsy, who was raped by her father, John, whom the family and he himself thought they were huanted by a ghost due to a curse put by a lady. Apparantly, the ghost was actually Betsy herself. What was the basic cause for the spirit Betsy to appear wasn't clear for us to depict. However Sweet opinioned that the spirit huanted Betsy so as to prevent any chance for the cruel father to continue his despicable act on the daughter. In the end, everything turned normal after John died under the hands of his wife, who got enlightened of the truth. The story started and ended with the modern surviving Betsy, whose daughter was also huanted by the same ghost.

We had our third indulgence at Mac Pherson's hawker again. Had Sweet's favourite Nong Hiam, fried Hokkien prawn mee and pieces of fried carrot cake. Fattening and acne-causing but well...both of us just love eating with each other around.

Our day ended, spare the negligible momentary friction, with a loving birthday French kiss from Sweet.
