i got the biggest catch of the day- a log.

i was so stressed out and exhausted by the end of the week (note this: only 2 days of college) that i just had to get out of the house. prostho is a real killer. so i joined a bunch of friends to relax on the island.


actually we were supposed to go for the lantern festival at times square.



but we went a day too early.




"-.-

birthday parties are for dressing up. that's what i like about them :)






what's even better about birthdays? the cake, of course!






tiramisu cake. mmm... apparently, while eating the cake, chia min and i geniusly inhaled the chocolate powder through our mouth and almost choked to death.





group pictures are always a MUST! so that on your 73rd birthday, you can show your grandchildren or great-grandchildren how granny or granpa looked like 50 years ago. (young and wrinkle-free!)





outside manhattan's. personally, i didn't enjoy the food that much. it was too bland. i only had two types of dishes on my plate. fish. chips.





happie burfdae puvi babeee!

Others puked because they drank too much liquor.











I vomited because I didn't take my daily dose of coffee.

i love this september :) all the holidays are making me lazy. lol.



i had been reading 'new moon' (completed it in three days) and i'm definitely looking forward to read 'eclipse' during the hari raya holidays.





do i hear someone say textbooks?

an old friend whom I hadn't met in years, called me up the other day.





F (friend): hey vivian, i need a favour from you.


V (me): yeah?


F: i want to give you rm xxxx. please accept my offer.


V: *bewildered*  seriously?? where did you get so much money from?


F: i won them. i have so much money, i don't know what to do with it.


V: "-.-    why don't you donate them for charity?
             but if you really want to give it to me, i'm willing to accept it.

if only dreams come true.

sadly, i was nursing a bad cold. so no ice-cream for me. boo hoo.



okay, less talk, more pictures. (the weather's putting me to sleep)



i really don't remember what we were laughing about, but it was a good laugh =)



group picca!



girls only. except that guy hiding behind the verandah. yeah him.



i revamped the pic using photofunia.com. awesome, right?



the guy's totally checking puvi out. lol.



with the birthday girl and her best friend.






anyway, i've been told about 'oil pulling' and it sounds impressive and effective. don't dare to try it though. go google it!





p/s: i changed my mind. the weather sucks. the strong wind. sand particles flying like hail stones. painful eyes. not fun at all.

in fact, it's so good that all you want to do is grab a good book, go under the sheets, and fall asleep.






and the weather's making me feel extremely laid back, so bad that everyday feels like a holiday.







argh, it's a love-hate relationship!






i can't concentrate in class (it doesn't help that the lecturer speaks faster than a bullet train... so irritating!).






the weather is just too gooooooooooooooooood.







the nights are wonderful too.





i dreamed of roses, lots of them. i don't know why, but i did.





last night i dreamed that i was munching on a focaccia stuffed with ham and salad leaves.
