My 19th Birthday Bash - 9/12/2011

December has been my all time favorite month..

Of course because...obviously its my birthday month..

and duh.. Christmas...

4 years ago, its on December that I met Gideon :)

So yea. December's kinda awesome.

My 'finally turning into19' celebration was a string of events~~

It goes like this~

On the 8th,

Cheryl drove me out to Times Square to meet Hazel~ Katherine's busy with dance so its just a late night threesome :) (yishh. its a completely innocent phrase!)

Cheryl Me n Hazel

Dinner at BBQ plaza

Posing with the dragon

Yummness...

Hazel Belanja Fro-yo♥

And after that went to find Ms Kat for a Yum Cha session in a nearby mamak.

I just loved the moments with you girls.

Like the past being played back in the present :)

On the 9th,

I was booked by Mr Gideon Yap,

and He was all charming like he always is during my birthdays!

He'll do whatever I ask. :D Im soooo nice not to take advantage of this..

I just opted for a simple day out, no fancy restaurants or anything. Just a day only me and him~

So the venue's One U since I dont usually go there..

Underwater world in One Utama~

We had lunch at Sushi Zanmai- their unagis are exquisite :)

Very very filling and satisfying meal ♥

Thank you dear :)

Had some stroll.. was actually searching for a pair of earrings like this:

Cant find them in the end~ so we headed back to the Yap's residence to watch this:

Red Riding Hood

So hot~ Shiloh Fernandez stars as Amanda's love interest~

Story's great! Creatively staged, though more adult, darker and sinister...

Will blog about it soon~

Time flew by and we headed to church for our friday prayer meeting :)

I knew there was gonna be a celebration..

And Im right!

Haha :)

After the prayers Aunty Daphne(Gideon's mom) Aunty Anne and the musicians blast out a Happy Birthday Music,

And I was pulled to the front

and surprised by..

Rachel's CAKE ♥

YUMMMMM!! Durian Cake awesomeness ♥

Being prayed over for blessings :)

That's Gideon's mom and dad,

both amazing pastors~

Finally the 'gang' resorted to go for a night scrummy supper~

@ Al Diafah at Sri Petaling

Ive only tried Arabian food at Hadramawt so kinda excited to try sumtin new~

Aladdin Feel to everything..

Cheryl back from a busy tiring day..

Kat at home in the exotic surroundings~

The girls~

Oh wow! Jacob Black!

The Kundus.

Vince the food conqueror.

and also from Edward Cullen.

lol

Was on the cake

:p

From NEF

Won it~~

With the help of Gideon and those who helped voted for me :)

Haha at first I thought Gideon proposed to me though.

Nice fragrant..:)

Gideon's got a surprise for me and I only get to see it next year.

So..

That concludes my birthday.

I'd say this year's full of cheers..

And to be surrounded by loved ones.

Deeply appreciated and cherished ♥

My Breaking Dawn experience (major spoiler)

Got to catch Breaking Dawn with Gideon...

One day ahead its release date :)

-premier passes thanks to NEF

Actually I wasnt really that hyped up, more calm and collected..

Must be due to one year of desperate longing. Lol

It just brings back a sense of nostalgia for me,

the day when i first read Twilight... and never looked back.

Anyway For those who have not watched, dont go on~

Major Spoilers Ahead!!

.....

...

...

Now the movie opens with Jacob bursting out of his house, transforming into a raging wolf and speeding off to the lost horizon.

And the screen moves into a shot of Bella's wedding invitation...

Well he basically do that all the time.

Jacob Black :

1) The dude who cant seem to keep his shirt on

( Though in this episode he's more dressed up)

2) Anger management issue

3) Always running into the woods- wolf form when he cant take the heat

Anyway the wedding wasnt really that..well dreamy. Just practical~

I love how Charlie shows his reluctant desire to let his daughter off..

hinting he has a gun

so Eddy wont run away

XD

The Denali Coven

Is it just me or do the vampires look off?

I mean look at Edward, he was supposed to be.. breathtaking..

He was in Twilight, but in Breaking Dawn?

hmm..not that ravishing I say? He doesnt attract me anymore,

I just think he looks ill~

And Tanya and the others?

If you look closely, their golden eyes are kinda creepy.

A little fake looking,

especially Irina~

They were supposed to be long, elegant..

extremely captivating..

But I just dont get the vibe.

Look at Selene from Underworld

She just oozes vampire beauty, pale skin... mysterious eyes.

you get the works!

Maybe the vampires in Twilight need a change in their choice of contact lenses~

Anyway... The whole movie I think theres many good scenes wasted,

There's always this emo kind of song in the background as Bella looks into a corner or something..

One scene I like though is Renesmee transforming~
I mean how did they do that??

I think she's perfect for the role :)

Anyway not so much on this episode this time,

just monotonous~

Hopefully part 2 will kick off with a bang!

Eddy's a father in law~ hahaha
