s o f t 18

Last year's birthday:

This year's birthday:

Yes my lovely readers, I am now 18!

On the 24th I had a relaxing day with my girls from uni with lunch in a turkish restaurant (which I went to last year as well) at Docklands, followed by shopping and then early dinner at Giraffe Cafe. I was extremely happy to receive: L'OCCITANE Rose scented candles from Juen, L'OCCITANE Lavender hand cream from Saho, LUPICIA Haru Poro-Poro flavored tea from Lydia, and TOO LATE watch from Linda!

I noticed that I had turkish food twice last year, and this year my inner turkey-foodie is back once more. The odd thing is I never go hyped up about turkish food, but in reality they never disappoint me! Turkish food is good!

Then when it struck midnight, Ken wished me Happy Birthday and I received the long-awaited gift which was cute and funny xD thank you baby! Around half an hour later my brother arrived at my apartment with chips, dips, tequila, Plontypool DVD, and the awesome ML-L3 Nikon IR remote which I asked him to buy when he asked me what I wanted as present.

Listy set up the birthday cake which she bought for me with this extremely cute candle which could play music... it was just simply adorable. What a lovely friend she is because she also bought me a bottle of desert wine! She knows me well. I carried Ken to the living room and the 4 of us celebrated together, then he went back to sleep, and we watched Plontypool, which was awesome!!! I loved the ending.

At around 4am, bro went back, Listy was already asleep, I went to my room, lit up the Rose candle from Juen, put on Saho's Lavender hand cream, drank down the remaining Haru Poro-Poro tea from Lydia followed by downing another half glass of Listy's wine. Talked to Ken for a while, then slept.

In the morning I woke at an amazing hour, which was 8AM. I planned to sleep in a bit but apparently my body knew it was my birthday so it woke me up. And I didn't feel the least bit sleepy. The weather was perfect that day, my prayer was answered yay! Bro couldn't make it so I spent the day with my Listy~

Again I chose to celebrate by going to pretty places, so this time I went to Brighton Beach. It was a lot of fun, we saw a bikini model having a shoot, and all that. Took like... 700+ photos? But they all look great so I was very happy. Photoshoots are fun... *_*

After Brighton Beach Listy and I walked along Southbank, then went to Giraffe Cafe again where I treated her to early dinner. Ate way too much... And apparently, the moment we went in the cafe, it started raining outside. When we walked out, it rather stopped. How lucky I am!

Today, I received a little gift from my cousin Cello. He made a funny little photoshop drawing and called me the REAL juice! Hahaha, thank you Cello!

I call my 18th a 'soft' birthday. Two days of relaxing, forgetting about my project, immersing myself in floral scents, drinking wine, feeling clean, feminine, and happy!

And and and and, I haven't been reporting for curfew for the past few days. YESSS!!!

And I can buy wine now.

PS: Thanks Mom and Dad for waiting up to wish me Happy Birthday! ^__^
