A grandiose closure to 21st year of my life

17th January 08 17:30 hrs

We went to visit Darren in SGH as a class. I'm really glad to see him sober up and think straight, determined to set things right. I'm sure can do it bro! Waiting for you to come out then we can go out together.. You , Ren De...Me! Enjoy your stay there ya! Make it meaningful and fun!

20:00

Alex & Mei Lin, Jude & Yan Ru, Esther & I, and of course, You Sheng & Daniel. We went down to the food court opposite Outram MRT. Had some quick bites and a little catching up. Although I was pretty disappointed there wasn't enough stalls opened at that timing, I enjoyed the people! I mean, the company.

22:00

Headed down to Butter Factory with Dear for my school bash. It's my first time clubbing! Excited. Here are some pics:

Cool Girl


Some Pics I took of the place...




Nice right!? I mean, the shots. Ha Ha. Anyway, we danced a little. 12:00, January 18 08. Mr. Jonathan hits 22. Thanks for all that remembered! Thanks for all that didn't either, because all my friends made a difference in my life! And family of course. And so, dancing was cool. Although I'm not really into it, whatever. It's like my first time clubbing, why not just go with the groove and dance? Ha.

My dear had a surprise for me. She brought me to Dan Ryan's Chicago Grill. Americanized.
There was something that caught my eye. At the bottom of the menu it reads: " Warning. We serve American portions only." I mean, ROFL! That's cute~!

Anyway, my dear ordered carrot cake. Erm. The ENGLISH carrot cake which looks like (see below) that. Not Chai Tao Kuay ah!! Appetisers & Baby back ribs or something like that (we forgot to take any pics of those.)











And that's it! Great food. I was really surprised when they, the staff, brought the cake and sang "Happy Birthday" right there. My dear knew, and it was kind of a nice surprise..I feel so loved! Hee. So dear, thank you very much for an enjoyable 22nd birthday!~

Me and Daniel met up earlier to buy prezzie for my 2 nephews at Sun Tec. We headed down to Bugis to meet up with the cell group for Reachlight lunch at Oxford Hotel at 13:30 hrs. When we met Eugene and Denise, we heard the most shocking (albeit interesting) news. The two were fined drinking in the MRT. Actually, if you can visualise Bugis MRT, there were standing at the far right corner after you exit the gantry, which is near the exit. For a normal commuter (that is, me) I would not consider drinking there an offense! I think most people don't know. I think the management is just being a SNUB - whatever that means..it just sounds nice. Anyway, if it were me I'll be sure to STOMP the issue. I mean come on. The guys claimed that they played the "NO EATING AND DRINKING" announcement 5 or 6 times over the PA system. Would anyone, thinking that they are not in offense, pay any attention to that? I would certainly think it would be an offense if I were to be drinking within the gantry, train side; But certainly not when I'm near the exit?! Ridiculous. They didn't even have the courtesy to come over and warn them personally. I think they FAIL...maybe that's why they get stuck with that job. Pft.

Just to create some awareness.

Anyway, lunch was crappy for $18 bucks. Serious. So I shan't talk too much about it.

However, Dinner was just too great. Pariss International @ Marina Square. Oh no I forgot to thank my sisters. Anyhow, it was pretty pricy so I did expect much of it. It delivered...somewhat. The choices wasn't too fantastic, but it's been a long time since I indulged myself in such a spread. I'm glad dear you enjoyed yourself. Sorry forgot about the photos; too busy eating. My dear took a few at the end though, when I was happily eating black pepper crab. Hope it appetizers you! Here's one:

Cellgroup. I was surprised with a Birthday Cake at the end. Really thank you all for the great company. Above all, thank God I have you all!





Once again, Thank you all! And I love the water bottle it is really handy!
And thanks Lie Cong bro. You've been very attentive and caring to the needs of the cell group, and also listening to me/us.

15:00 or...15:30...since the 2 lovey dovey were kinda late..

Yanru & Jude, Me and Dear went Pasir Ris park for a photoshoot.
For this one, I think pictures will speak a volume much larger than words, so i'll direct you to Jude's flikr webby once he uploaded them. Here's a sample of what I took with Jude's DSLR...Oooh I'm loving DSLR now.




Great shots! Thanks Jude and Yan Ru for the wonderful time-out at the beach. We had fun...should do that some other time...with some other couple.

That's all for now...too long and I need to prep for tomorrow.
So Ciao!

Jonathan
