Cher's 21st

On 6th December this year I turned 21 (: It has been a day I've been looking forward to, not only because its a perfect excuse to party, but because it really allows me a close look at what matters to me in life, and how far I've come. These 21 years have not been easy, growing up can sometimes be a painful, but essential experience, and I recollect many many happy memories with the many people I hold dear. It really isn't the money I earn, the grades I get, the accomplishments along the way, but more importantly the people I have kept by my side and who have supported me all the way through! But before I get too emotional, a 21st is a very very joyous occasion!
At 12 midnight at korkor benny's house, my cousins sneakily bought a cake for me and sang happy birthday! I was so surprised, and so happy, and felt truly blessed to have a family that loves me and that I love! The seafood dinner, surprise cake and time spent at my family's was a perfect start to my 21st birthday, followed by the most hilarious surprise by ben who sat at my house staircase for an hour with my favourite oreo cheesecake, and rushed in to wish me happy birthday after I had arrived home from dinner. <3 I was truly smiling like some idiot, and even then already without my party the next day, I was already feeling like a million bucks and smiling a true euphoria of contentment.
Pictured here is my family @ korkor benny's house (: And like my mom says, we look so happy that night!

Ben at my place during his mini surprise! (: and kenny and I with my very very very darling niece gwengwen who sat on my lap the entire night!
And so, the next day arrived and it was a mad rush to prepare everything from the decorations, to buying the liqour and everyone came super early! The photos that follow are all from the night of my birthday, and not in sequence, but it highlights the people I want to thank, the people most dear to me, the people whom I already thanked in my speech but not in detail! (:

Before all my darling friends came along to complete my life, there was my family. My dad, who supported me through every single of my tough times, always believing in me, fetching me to places, lovingly calling me 'cher cher' even till now though I'm already 21, for buying supper, and providing me with all the support for my studies (: I get my cheery cheery demeanor and positive spirit all from my dad and without him my life just wouldn't be complete. My mom, for all her material support and company over the years; I get my strength and ambition from her. And of course there's Sean, who puts up with all my rubbish all these years, and who has accompanied me through half my life as a dearest brother.

Benzi and shu en have been my best friends for 9 years. 9 solid years of being there for each other, and I can honestly say they are really steady and supportive friends. We went through puberty together, did stupid useless things like watch bball together, been on the phone for hours, and continue to have the most retarded and rich memories as we walked through secondary school, poly/jc, uni and NS together. FOKKIEWSEAH will always be FOKKIEWSEAH. Thank you bestie shu en, for being the most opposite from me and still loving me for everything I am, for sharing the same humour. Benzi, for being my brother all these years, through hours of tears, to hours of piano playing to many more hours to come! Them coming to my 21st meant a lot to me, and I must thank benzi for buying ALLL my drinks, and dressing up like a Good Charlotte rocker. AHHAHA and shu en, for helping me find my dress, for taking photos of my 21st, and for being a judge for my Best Dressed ;)

3 years in MI is a very very long time. And its a very solid time to make girlfriends like Joanne, Queena and Cheryl. Together we have done the funniest and funnest things, from scouting Bak Kut Teh to laughing at lame jokes to shopping, to mimicking teachers to mugging for hours to overseas Cairns trips to crying in each other's arms. I thank Queena for helping me out with the decorations, it really means a lot, and for bringing your gorgeous guitar to play with my happy birthday song (: I thank Cheryl for the redbull she sponsored for my party, and Joanne for being to pinkily clad enough to win the Best Dressed ;) Also for the gorgeous Riverisland bag! Truly a gift from my girlfriends! :D

Linin's my arts camp roomie and also the decorations in charge for my birthday! With her help, we have been planning my birthday weeks before, conceptualizing everything we should do, what props to buy, and the theme as well! Thank you linin for spending all that time doing up the props with me, for bringing along whatever pink you saw, and making my 21st a special one. With her, I always felt that I knew deco would be a fun job and a job well done. With her, I knew that my birthday would be a blast no matter what, and that having her around this year during my uni life has been the best experience yet! I can't begin to recall the countless memories I share with her and shan, being the most bitchy and retarded girlfriends on earth and into the wee hours of the morning. Shan, who couldn't make it for my 21st was still in my mind the whole time, and even though she wasn't physically there, I knew she was there in spirit! (: Shan has supported me through some very tough times, and been a steady friend I know I can count on when things get hazy. With her, I know someone has got my back. ;) NINSHAN, thank you for all the beautiful memories since our soccer in arts camp, to shopping in city plaza, to bitching nonstop online. Cheers to our fresh friendship that's gonna last past our 21st birthdays!

Pictured here with some of the RhivasRoto girls, which is my first ever uni clique (: Like I said in my speech, I couldn't ask for a better bunch of people to befriend, with sweet people like Josephine and Yuxing, funny people like Norvin, and other unique and special people that I couldn't be more thankful for. Thank you guys for wearing pink! even though I know you don't own pink in your closet, the fact that you came down in pink just made me feel really appreciated (: Thank you for all the beautiful camp memories, and cheers to our uni life together!
Thank you RhivasRoto for the gorgeous Holga camera! Its one of the bestest presents I have received, and I have begun snapping nonstop on it. Its pink! And I was so deliriously happy when I opened the wrapper. I also want to thank Sheldon for fetching my 25 helium balloons from Parkway parade and into his car, and Felix for organising the fun fun games for my party (: Thank you all for coming and I can't imagine my party without you! Having all of you there made me really happy (:


RalentineRockers is a big big family of the most gorgeous and awesome people. Getting to know them this year has been one of the most eventful things, and I really appreciate the huge board that OGL Daniel did, and the rest of the guys and girls all coming in pink. Like Phyllis said, "isn't this exactly what you wanted? :DDDDD" and the answer is indefinitely YES! Thank you for being a part of my life, colouring it up with prettiness and alcohol.

HAHAHAHA JUST KIDDING. It isn't the alcohol that made the party fun, it was definitely the people that made everything wonderful. Thank you for coming guys! CHEERS!

Ben is one of the most important people in my life. He has been my bestfriend in Rhivasroto, and my boyfriend that makes my days warm and rosy. Thank you ben, for helping me plan my birthday party, being there every step of the way, from helping me with the theme, to the deco, to the cake, to the food, to being the official person signing for my bungalow, for organizing games, for buying my presents and for all your company these years. Thank you for helping me, and supporting me in more ways than one, and to me you're always the best because of how you treat me like I'm the best, like I deserve the best. That to me, is one of the most precious 21st birthday gifts, to have someone like you who loves me for everything I am. With you, I don't have to be anyone else but myself, and with you, I always feel like I'm my best. That, to me is really a precious gift of love that one can give. (alongside with the gorgeous tiffany&co ring! whee!!!)
And so we have it, cher is 21. I am 21 years old. I would like to say that I have accomplished enough to be really happy. I am blessed with a good family, a good chance at life, a wonderful group of friends and girlfriends that I know will see me through my colourful life (as I will see through theirs) and a boyfriend who truly makes me happy! (:

There are a lot of other people I want to thank, like Daniel and Chinglee who came for my party, I was really happy to see you both (: And for ben and i's friends who made a special appearance for me, and Hans for taking professional pictures with his SLR.
To everyone else that didn't make it for my birthday, who made it for my birthday, who I didn't thank, if you in one way or another know me, met me, helped me, I want you to know I appreciate you, and that I am everything that I can be because of all the wonderful people in my life like you, and because God loves me so and gives me the love and strength I need to continue through the days of my life.
Thank you everyone for making my 21st special, thank you for your wishes and thank you for the best HotPink 21st I could possibly ask for (: <3Labels: attractions, bestie, birthday, cherninshan, family, fokkiewseah, girlfriends, ralentine, rhivas, rock, roto, ♥ben

It was a really fun time. Lucas and I were driven to his appointment at the vet's today. Lucas always loves car rides so he can sit by the window and look out to the world. We concluded that Lucas' mind darts all over the place and hence his bodily movement is one that darts all over the place too!
We also concluded, that we're happy happy people <3
p/s its officially about a week to my birthday celebration! can't wait to spend all that time with my favourite peoples. but first, Singapore Society.Labels: lucas, ♥ben
