Lots of back dating to do regarding the chalet, birthday cum christmas celebration, lasting from the 24th to 28th December 2006. It was generally fun and I enjoyed every moment of it, even though some friends left me rather disappointed. But first, I want to thank the following friends for making the effort to come. You made my day and you pals are the best! Gambled a bit, lamed a bit, bbq-ed a lot, despite the rain and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly (i hope). I came home totally drained and slept for hours.

Not forgetting Beng Siew who came down with her friend, Gary. It's so nice meeting you. I'm so happy to see you again, and seen that you've become more bubbly!
And of course, special thanks to Yan Ling Jie for coming out with the idea of the lovely cake, and getting laogong to buy it, and Yan Xin for adding lots of lameness to the chalet. Also, how can I forget my dearest laogong for being there everyday at the chalet even though you had to work. And paying over $70 for the cake. Here's the group photo taken.
For those who did not get to see the cake, here it is. From Polar Puff and Cake, I present to you my 21st birthday cake. Copyright licenced powerpuff girls cake. Cut at midnight!

- Chris and family
With my cousin, a teacher, and my dearest twinnie a teacher too, we had 6 young teachers at my chalet, not including 2 of my dad's friends yet. One a principal and another a HOD. So you can say we had 8 teachers there. Well, if you want to include my uncle, who is now an OM.
Presenting to you the 6 young teachers:
Top left to right: Joyce (my cousin), me, Chris (my bestest NIE pal)
Bottom left to right: Wesley (practicum mate), Hamida (my twinniex), Sultanah (my bestest shopping and gossip NIE pal)
Oh and thank you Joyce for staying over! We've never been this close before, until recently. If we do go Pulau Ubin, I'll definitely call you along.
To my dearest Sultanah, I can see that you hit it off well with my twinnie and my cousin. Felt so heartwarming. And thank you for helping me register my modules. Wouldn't know what to do without you. Here's the self taken pic of us, Sul. There still is another one. I'll send that to you when I see you online.
Well, I had 2 birthday cakes. My second cake was cut on the 25th december, at night, with my relatives. It's a sinfully chocolate fudge cake from Lana Cakes. Yum yum. Ordered by my dad.
Thank you everyone for the presents! Received many bags and make up kits and a remover kit too! Loved it all. Especially this adidas bag given by TYL and TYX.
How can I also leave out my act cute pictures taken with twinniex. Self taken too! You could say we were all so thick skinned. But, who cares? Haha.
And my most favourite picture of all. Just before laogong left for work on Christmas Day. He looks so yandao!
This is one photo intensive post. As Chris said, my most precious birthday present this year is actually my parents accepting laogong. My parents lent laogong the car (as we had 2 cars during the chalet) to work and I felt that this was a rather big step to show that they trust him. His family also came down on the 26th December and so you can say that both our parents have met. Another step further to seeing the future.
Hope that this year will be a good one despite my health. I'm doing all I can.
