My 22nd bday that just passed felt like a 21st. I didnt expect such a big bash. I didnt want to make a big deal out of it cause you know, after turning 21, its downhill from there! In short, it was one of the best birthdays I've had! I feel extremely blessed to be surrounded with such great friends (plus Jus =P). Anyway, less talk and more pictures.
On Saturday, Jus brought me out for brekkie opposite my apartment. We love the waffles plus fruit juices there.
This was followed by lunch a short 2 hours later. In between the two hours, I stayed home just to kill time. Whilst surfing on the net at home, somebody buzzed my apartment. It was pretty puzzling because I wasnt expecting any visitors. I proceeded to pick up the intercom and heard a voice which i thought sounded pretty familiar.
"Hello"
"Hi"
"Em...who is this?"
"Joanne here...Who are you looking for?"
No reply.
Very puzzling indeed. I quickly turned on my tv and switched to channel 1 where I can view who is at the front door. The mysterious person has disappeared!! Hm...
(mystery to be solved later on)
Anyway, Jus and I proceeded to have lunch at 'Sails on the Bay' (I think thats the name!) Two thumbs up for it if you are one that is crazy for seafood. The service was a little slow but the ambience and food made up for it.
I couldnt quite differentiate margarine and butter when I was younger. Now, Ive turned into this picky eater. I heart good quality butter~!
*Drool* Oyster shots!
Raw tuna in the middle
This picture was taken just outside the restaurant. Hence the name, Sails on the Bay. The restaurant is on the beachfront.
After a hearty 3 hour lunch, Jus dropped me off at House Church. At the end of the session, Sue Lee suggested that in conjunction of my bday, everyone should give me a 'May Statement'. An example of a 'may statement' would be 'May you excel in whatever you....". I expected everyone to give a standard short 'may statement' - stuff that are printed on bday cards. But most of the 'May statements' became short 21st speeches: "My first impression of Joanne is....I remember the time...." haha...really interesting and touching. I heart my house church (almost as much as much as seafood =D )
My "cake"
*Phew, thats all for now. Much more to come!*
