BRIGHTER THAN THE SUN

(music: Brighter than the Sun - Colbie Caillat)

On Thursday, I met up with the #TVWhores at Simpang.


I had the lamb shawarma wrap. As always, the accompanying chips were very nice. They're my favourite chips from all of Singapore. Along with Kettles' chicken chips.

After I was done with my food, Shameen and I commenced our drinks challenge. She'd witnessed my hyperactivity on the night I'd had the teh peng challenge with Mike, and she was on for a drinks challenge, so it was game on.


Our first 4 cups of sirap limau.


4 cups each and we were.... slowing down.....

Li-wen was cheering on Meen and Viv was my cheerleader. Somebody was telling me to flirt with the guy who kept taking our sirap limau orders, so we'd get some discount. Because I was full of sirap limau and not in the proper mindset to make decisions, I actually attempted to HAHAHA.

After 5 cups each, Meen and I discussed.... Because the loser had to pay for all the drinks, and each cup of sirap limau was $2.20 (fucking daylight robbery, although it was nighttime) so we'd already chalked up $11 each.

Neither of us wanted to lose and fork out $22, but we were really full to bursting (and I'd just eaten the wraps, whereas Meen had eaten at home!) so... we called truce and drew and paid for our own cups, then made a gangway for the toilets.

I definitely wasn't as affected as I'd been after the #tehpengchallenge. I wasn't bouncing up and down in my own house at 4am, Tweeting nonsense and irritating everyone, even myself. Thank goodness sirap limau has no caffeine. The caffeine in 5 cups of teh peng made me want to kill myself.

No more challenges, please. Not in a long time. I'd prefer to just eat and enjoy some proper conversation.

On Friday, my little sisters showed me three kittens under our block. They were housed in someone's bicycle basket, but they're no longer there. :(




Precious little kitties! ♥

I laughed at my own joke. -.-

Yesterday Lyssa and I went to the pasar malam near our house, in the day.


We bought keropok lekor, cheese hotdog, char kway, roti john and chicken kebabs for lunch. That is all.

In the evening, I went for Reen's belated 21st birthday party.


Get the pun?


We were supposed to hang the leaf messages on the branches!






The party was so very colourful and it was carousel-themed and so very Reen.




Birthday girl. :)



I ate lots of savoury stuff, then lots of sugary sweet stuff.


Wondering whether to eat the cupcake or the sugar/brownie/lollipop thing first.


Reen had a jar of old-school candies, like you know the foot thing that you dip in soury powder that will pop in your mouth? I took home a few old-school stuff. Tim was forcing everybody to take a stick of some sour sweet, there were different colours and Tim was peddling it as drugs. Typical. -.-

Hisham was there, and he saw my bby on my BB wallpaper, and he asked "is that the Levitt guy? what's his name, Jordan?" and I died a little inside. JORDAN?! JOSEPH GORDON-LEVITT TO YOU. He was wearing a T-shirt with SNSD'S Tiffany print, I shoulda called her Timpani. >:(

I said I liked Sooyoung more, he called her Long Legs. Sooyoung is more than long legs. She's the cutest, and sweetest and funniest.

Also met and caught up with Dilah and Zakiah there, it was nice! :) Got to meet Dilah's Londoner boyfriend, whom Hisham was proud to have taken a photo with, hahaha ape je. (But his accent is nice, hello speaking Lon-don leh.)


Anyway, the cake was a carousel with a pretzel centre, and it could not have been more suitable for Reen.


So effing pretty!



She is so pretty, both inside and out and I'm glad if anybody got to have such a happy, wonderful, whimsical party it's her. I hope for the best for her, I pray to God that things work out in every aspect. She deserves sweetness and love and kindness!



:)

I LOVED THE PARTY FAVOURS.



They were jars of sand or glitter or little things in different colours and were supposed to represent potions or mixes from different stories: there were things from Harry Potter, like Felix Felicis, gold and creates luck, and there was pixie dust, from Peter Pan, etc.


I got this and the glitter is really purple and pink and pretty! This is the most powerful love potion in the Harry Potter world, and it creates infatuation. Is it not adorable?


Snape's Tears! I think Tim took this.

Tim left with me, thank goodness for him, that I never have to walk out of unfamiliar places alone when I go for HTM thingers or whatever. He really does protect me and take care of me, ever since our first semester in TP, thank the Lord for gentlemanly guy friends.

He's gonna ORD in June, and then he's off overseas for studies, then how?! ;( Haha no la, I'm more than fine by myself. #feminismfirst

Today I went for lunch at the airport with Bhav-u. (said like in Kolaveri Di: moon-u moon-u white-uh white-uh hehehehe.)


She treated me to Sakae Sushi! She's the best! She's like my personal reviewer too. She'll tell me about all the good movies and she went for Wicked, so she filled me in. I'm glad she's enjoying herself step by step. :)

We had some hiccups while trying to mail Shereen's and Irene's gifts overseas, but all was settled.

I read this when I got home:


Re-kindling the lost act of emailing with Sarah. I love how wordy our crazy emails are, and that seriously nobody else would have the patience to get through all the crazy we type to each other. I am grateful for Sarah because we try to fix each other as much as we can, and when all else fails, we speak Minah and laugh like crazy. It's completely mind-boggling how similar and yet so completely different we are. I don't know how or why it is as such! All I know is a lot of times, no one quite gets it the way Sarah does and for that I am grateful.

Reverse it, put Huda instead of Sarah, and there you have what I feel for her. HAHAHA #sosimilarithurts #duakalilimasebelas

I read her email again before I replied it (her email puts the most sensible wise person in the world to shame), and again, the meme image she'd generated made me laugh aloud.


HAHAHA the FACE. The FACE. (And the words, but.) THE FACE.

I love it, love her and her words and the feelings I have reading her words. I don't know, it's just, there should be a word to describe this situation and this relationship and this... thing, but maybe not in English and even if there was an English word I don't know what it is. Oh Huda.

In any case, I know life is tough, love doesn't always work out, and friends are hard to keep, and parents are hard to fight, and it goes on but for today, let me just tell you, you have a friend in me.

I am counting my blessings again for knowing all of you, you mean so much to me, and I'm still talking about only girls. Thank you for helping me, for being there, for sharing things with me, and I sincerely hope one day things will work out, and if it's not today, one day it will. You're all good, and deserve good things.

I need to either tell somebody my feelings, or get rid of them. It doesn't get any easier. It never does. But it's alright. Feelings are alright. Love is alright.
