Alvin DarLIN's 23rd!

As the title suggests, it was The Mister's Special Day on the 3rd of Jan!


Eggxactly 2 months before mine!
Haha!

He thought of a nice place to celebrate his special day with me, though I should be the one racking my brains. Heh. And we planned this months before through Skype.

Sentosa so to speak.

Even though I've been there many times, mostly fer beach games dry runs and camps, I haven't been to the newly added attractions at Sentosa. I bet many of you haven't either!


Was hungry, so we ate the Potato Egg Salad with Bacon Bits (made by ME) meant fer supper before we went ahead with our day's activities. As a result, we missed the animal show!

Caught the Luge Ride!





Before that, we sat the sky-lift up to take the ride which was kinda scary as underneath were trees and more trees unlike the ride I took at the snow resort where the thought of falling onto snow aint as bad as falling into the dense vegetation.


With our helmets (they sure know how to milk tourists as these are also sold as souvenir) in tow, we're ready fer the ride!

Real thrilling as the speed of it can be quite fast and you have to avoid colliding other riders!

Alvin bought a photo of us taken by the Luge Mgt.




Fer dinner, it was Gary's HK Cafe at Vivo!

OMG! I simply love it so much! Been missing it fer the past 6 months!

It's Alvin's Birthday, but it feels like MINE! Hurhurhur.



Followed there after was Songs of the Sea - a musical with pyrotechnics, brilliant computer imaging, water jets, lasers, and bursts of fire and fireworks to captivate you.


I thought the first part of the show was rather eew.
The storyline's even more horrid- Eg: Singing songs to save fishes and wake a lady up!

They should just omit the people and let the wonders of technology take over.



The finale was the most spectacular of all.
Didn't capture the bursts of fire though.


Last but not least, his Banana Crumble CAKE baked by The Missus!

Candles and chocolate stencil? were bought in Korea.

Fergot to bring a knife but a plastic fork sufficed. Heh.




His present; bought from online in Korea -A leather bag!
Pardon me fer the card's low quality.
Hadn't really got the time to produce a great one cause I had to unpack my stuff and bake within a day!


Anyway, I know he'd like anything I make, hurrrrrr.
Hope you had a fantastic birthday!

*MUAH*

Meet the Foursomes!


Tis' Christmas dinner was a lil' late, 4th Jan, but it's still within the 12 days of Christmas!

Ate at a Thai restaurant cause after I ate Thai food at Thailand on New Year's, I kinda miss it. Heh.

And yes, Exchanging of presents' not to be fergotten!


I received a framed precious moments characters with a big 'E' lovingly hand-sewn from Amanda and 2 yummy cookies shaped in a heart and star from Candice.

Well, the most interesting looking one would be this..




















Looked like soil filled flower pots isn't it?!

It's actually Regina's home baked Fudge Cake, part of one of her presents fer us.




















Decorated with Chocolate Fudge fer dessert.
The 2 swirls by Candice and the abstract artwork by Regina.





















Just so glad to meet up with them again after a loooong time!
Us gathering is always just so ebullient and merry!

Autumn

Don't know where to start posting..

I shall continue with where I last stop.









This was school during last autumn.





























It was just so beautiful..































Along the lake..

Though school (only design) was tough, things like these lovely sceneries made my day.


Actually, these were nothing compared to what I saw in Jeon Ju, and that shall be another post some other day!

Something Special..



Since this will be my very first post here at this new blog of mine (proudly done by Alvin darLIN after I rejected so many of his previous designs like more than 3 hurhur.. THANK YOU) , I'd like to kick it off to a great start by talking about the blessings that I've received.

I am speaking more about it cause I am seeing more of it coming!
You'd never see good until you see it first!


2007 was a year of New Beginnings. (started Sept 06)
There definitely were a lot of them, things that weren't trivial, things that made a significantly big impact in my life.

Things like:

Blasting 21st Birthday entering into adulthood
Learning Computer Aided Design (CAD) wols this will kick off a life long learning process
Joining Care Group
Being NUS Union Camp's director never ever dreamt heading 400. More to come AMEN!
Meeting Alvin DarLIN at ECP Macs!
Going to Korea fer SEP missing everything dearly
Serving in Praise and Worship in Saeansan Church


etc.


Never has my life been better than this and I attribute all this to God.
Own works? Luck? How can I get lucky all the time.
Luck talk's all crap and self righteousness is the mother of all sins.


2007 was simply great and 2008 will be much more abundantly blessed cause this year marks the Blessings of Deuteronomy 28!!

And it has already started! (sept 07)

Astonishing result slip & receiving design excellence award only with the favour from God
Learning to snowboard all within a day my sense of balance sucked mind you
Holidaying at Japan with Alvin DarLIN I wouldn't have dreamt of it too

The list will go on and on.

Hence, May ALL of these blessings rain hard upon everyone!
God Bless!


P.S.: I am Emily and I don't really fancy popcorns actually.
It's just some beautiful foam plucked randomly from the board or popped out from the air. It'd be the last thing I want to buy at the cinemas.

By the way, I think MacbookAir is stunning.
