camel with a simple plan

it's been a while. and i've been on a rollar coaster...

joyce had eyelash extensions last week. she looks like a camel now. i can't stand it. its so pretentious - but its joyce after all.

yesterday was the most exciting day as an intern. i got to attend a preview of SIMPLE PLAN's new album, meet the guys and interview Pierre Bouvier the lead singer and frontman. whoopee!

I was nervous, but thankfully, Pierre was really friendly and excited to talk about the band's new album - made my job so much easier.

their new single is so different from their previously whiny and angsty teenage music (imagine 'Perfect', 'Untitled', 'Welcome to My Life'). now they're moving into maroon 5-ish, green day-ish, nickelback-ish. very very different, more mature, and i think they're going to do really well. All the best ang moh boys!

happy birthday phoebe

Happy 20th to myself.

a hearty japanese dinner with carrie

movie outing with my brother

a day out with my mom

many birthday greetings from my friends

especially liz, peter, yien, jean, shah, jaime and avie - thanks for the calls, smses, video conference, and even a very funny birthday song through msn video chat. haha.

and to end it off, my dad thought that my birthday fell on the 5th.

me: daddy, can i eat my cake now?

dad: why do you want to eat your cake now? can't you wait till tmr?

me: huh? why do i have to wait till tmr?

dad: isn't your birthday tmr?

me: argh! WHAT?

that's my dad. and he had this baffled kind of look, and i bet he was wondering if i was trying to play a prank or crack some kinda joke.

oh well.

the Lana Cake was good. yum.

Happy Birthday to me!

so excite!

it's always fun to hang out with karen. i can't explain this exceptionally phenomenal chemistry we have when we're together. it's extremely mind-boggling, and it started way back when we were primary school kids. wow, we're getting old!

anyway, it's always fun with karen. we never had to pour out our deepest and darkest secrets to understand each other. in fact, we never talk about unhappy stuff. we're always poking fun at each other - actually, we poke fun at others. it's awfully mean, and meanfully awful. but you know what? we like it that way. so excite!
