EST

We have completed all the hardcore subjects so I guess SPM is unofficially over. Me, Ximan and Fhui went to watch Breaking Dawn: Part 2 and The Perks of being a Wallflower after the Bio paper. I have to say that Part 2 is the best movie of all Twilight Saga movies. It's the only movie that I don't find disappointing, compared to the novel. Well, I'm quite sad that it's the end, cause that means no more Twilight movies. :(

Okay, two more subjects to go and I can go on my honeymoon.. till I got this piece of news yesterday. 

After a round of consideration, I've decided to go for National Service. But this means that my honeymoon will be affected. My plan was to go for the January intake, and enjoy life at the same time. But now, I think I have no choice but to go for March intake and my schedule will be less-flexible than it's supposed to be. I'm gonna be the last one to get my driving license! Sigh. 3 months, is certainly not 3 days. I seriously cant imagine how I'm gonna survive in such an unfamiliar place. I've thought of deferring, but I was told that I was very lucky to get selected to Sarawak. So I told myself Just go ba liao lah. But....plans may change if Mummy decided that I should start college early, so...whatever :)

Today is Michelle's birthday! It has always been Doremifasola's tradition to make something for the birthday kid, so I made a video for her. Enjoy! :)

P.S I DID NOT fall down on purpose. The floor was really slippery

Fa Mi So.

We celebrated Michelle's birthday at Fridays. It was just a casual dinner. We showed the birthday girl the video in the restaurant. She laughed very hard and loud and I'm glad that she liked it. Aiyo. I should have record the reaction video of her force-kissing me and Ximan. It was a simple yet memorable meal but sadly Makoto and Lala didn't turn up and Joel was extremely LATE. Joel didn't get to dine with the birthday girl cause she left early. So, 3 of us decided to watch a movie but tickets were sold out. How unlucky of us. We casually walked and took random photos at the newly renovated area which used to be the food court. We even went to Toys 'R' us to play with toys. Lol. Oh and I have almost forgotten to thank Joel for being our moving ATM machine. Hehehe. Me and Ximan were so fucking broke.

And.. here's a preview of events for my upcoming week. I iz a happy girl!! 

Finally get to meet my favourite TVB stars!! Thanks to Ximan!

Everything seems so unreal to me, especially how time flies. Now, we're already sitting for our SPM. Recalling the first day of school, SPM was like 10 months ahead us. Back then, I had Ximan, Amanda and Rebecca by my side. We joked and laughed like lunatics, gossiped like nobody's business. This and that, it seems like it just happened yesterday. 10 months just went by and nearly no one is aware about it.

1st of November, our high school life finally came to an end. It was the last day of school & a day of laughter, and also tears. I was being emotionally unstable for a couple of days. I was flipping through my autograph book, reading the messages they left for me and a flood of tears gushed down my cheeks. I just couldn't keep my mind from going into the past. Their words, brought nostalgic memories of my past five years in high school. I realised how reluctant I was to leave high school, and my friends. Then, I told myself, time flies, but the memories collected along the way can never ever be replaced.

Back to reality, SPM is going on and we have completed 4 papers. I suffered nervous tension at the back of my head one day before the BM paper. My hands were shaking while I was texting my friends. It felt so unreal and I was actually questioning myself whether "IS THIS IT?" and my brain told me that "YES BITCH, THIS IS IT!" So, BM was okay I guess. Thank god there was an option for me to write a story for the essay section. English and Modern Maths was less challenging as usual. As for Sejarah, I was speechless towards it.   The questions were totally far from our expectations and the so-called tips didn't came out in the paper after all. Sigh..

After the Sejarah paper, I went to Xinhui's place to chill. She was a bad bad host. Like, who on earth would ask the guest to cook their own maggi? Haha, yet I still love her although she's such a meanie ;)

In the kitchen

I think I like myself

9th of November. 
It was Valerie's birthday. We had a mini surprise party for her at Sanuki. CCC baked a heart-shaped cheesecake for her, and it was actually quite delicious. They crashed my house with Big Bang songs after cutting the cake. Luckily no one complained. 

17 wishes.

CCC's wish granted.

We filmed videos on the spot while Valerie was locked up in my room, with______ Okay, I spent about an hour making it and finally it was done. This is my first time making a video for someone. Many were kinda surprised that I "had heart" to make the video, including the birthday girl Valerie. You can watch it by simply clicking the video below :)

To: Valerie, the very special friend of mine,
Five years in Kuen Cheng together and we weren't this close after a late night phone call. We started to have heart-to-heart talks and found similarities from each other. We don't hang out that much, but we are always not afraid to share thoughts and feelings with each other. When things strike, we may not come first in each other's mind, but we will eventually be there for each other. I know we will maintain our ever so special relationship although we may be apart from each other after high school. Like you said, nothing lasts forever but as long as we believe in each other, our friendship will be eternity no matter what. Valerie, thank you for being an important part of my life. I love you, I really do. ♥ Okay, I think I do sound a little cheeeeesy once in a while :)

Val & Yumi: 4 years, 11 months and still counting ;)

4. Seventeen

25/7

I'm finally seventeen! I woke up in the morning and found my first birthday present from my sister. Basically, my whole family gave me cash for my birthday. 

And, I also found this on my mirror.

I knew it was Michelle's work. It's so her style.

For 1 second, I was about to tear up.

On the birthday eve, my girls changed their profile pictures, pictures with me ;)

I received texts, calls and voice clips,

and most of them are quite disturbing, if you get what I mean :)

As usual, Huixian was the one who called me on time, sadly I had to hang up the others'

I feeeeeeeel so loved <3

Okay, so I started my birthday with a birthday hug with the other Birthday girl, Olivia ;)
My friends came to wish me in person, and gave me presents as well. You guys are the best!
Recess time, I was so hungry and dragged Ximan to go to the canteen with me but she refused.
So I was left there starving, until Michelle walked in with a birthday cake, along with the Doremifasola clan.

They creamed me with the cake and we started a cream war.
This was how I looked like.

And this was when Jason and Carmen came up to wish me.
Aww, thanks. I love you guys <3
So, we had our faces cleansed and continued our day.
Finally school's dismissed, and we headed to Mid Valley to have lunch.
Sushi Zanmai was packed so we had lunch at Sushi Zen.
The exact same thing happened last year, so it has turned into a tradition? :)

Here's a few pictures of the Forehead Trio!

(From Left: Forehead exposer, Forehead coverer, Forehead cropper)

The Fu Tuan Zhangs :)

And they sang birthday songs for me and Olivia.

They sang it like super loud, in 3 different languages..

All of us went separate ways after that, me and Oli went for birthday shopping.

This birthday shopping thing is like a tradition for us :)

So, I got her accessories from Forever 21 and a panty from Topshop.

She got me a bra from Cotton On and the same panty from Topshop.

For 3 consecutive years, we have been giving each other same birthday presents <3

We took a cab home after that.

This was what my bitches did to me. It took me a long time to rub it off.

Okay, Lisha and Ximan came to surprise me at night, like how they did last year.

But this time, Foonghui, Hui Xian, Amanda, Leigh Anne and Jeff came along too.

We had light snacks at RSY.

They made me lick the ketchup off the plate :/

After we left the restaurant, they came to crash my house.

Jeffy and Foong Hui

 The tall people

The birthday girls!

Ximan & Oli

And Ximan, thanks for organizing the surprise for us!

Us who grew up together :)

3/4 of us. Yen Ru's missing :(

Lisha, thanks for the cupcakes! My 2nd birthday cake for this year <3

Okay, it's time for some drama. 

Foonghui brought some sparkling juice.*CHEERS*

They left at 10 something and daddy fetched Fhui home after that.

We had cake from my parents at night. My 3rd cake for this year :)

I appreciate what my friends did to me, you guys are the best! I love you guys!

So, it's the end of my birthday. I'm still not really used to being seventeen.

I still prefer the number sixteen.
