Bday celebrationS...
Monday, 24 September 2007
Just had one of the best wkend ever since I reached Mel. Celebrated 3 bdays in this wk! In the month of Sep, on 19th is Hwee Chin's, on 22nd is Michelle and on 23rd, is my bday. For Michelle, she invited us over to her place. We played Cluedo and Monopoly and had many choc biscuits. The cake her host baked for her was also v delicious.On Sun, our 3 bdays were celebrated with a wonderful BBQ at Shuwen's place and stayover at mine. Hwee Chin, Crystal, Shuwen and I shopped for our food at Queen Vic during the late morning. From there, we brought all the food over to Shuwen's place and marinated them with whatever sauces or spices we had. I even travelled all the way back to my own place to fetch mine.
At 5.30pm, we officially 'started fire'. It's 'started fire' becuz it was an electric grill. But it was a very efficient-working one. The grilling plate was very well-heated and it took v short time to cook our food. We had sotong, lamb chops, pork chops, beef chops, beef sausages, fish fillets, chicken wings and onions. Everyone loved the pork chops that I marinated!! My bbq recipe that I've been using all along, taught by my mum. Crystal also cooked curry (premix kind), which was seriously gd too.In total, there were Shuwen, Crystal, Hwee Chin, Sadia, Val, Joanne, Michelle and Jessica at the BBQ. Most of us took the initiative to take turns to do the cooking. Afterthat, there was cake and jelly. Not forgetting, the present-giving time. Each of us received a $15 voucher to do Manicure.After showering at our own places, they made their way to my place for our stayover. We spent the whole night playing bridge. Only Crystal, Shuwen and I knew how to play bridge, so we taught the rest. I also don't know how we spent the whole 1am to 7am playing bridge. But it was enjoyable. By 7am, Hwee Ching was knocked out. Only Crystal and I stayed up the whole entire night. We were playing O2 Jam. Hahha. Then we had breakfast at a nearby deli. Pies.... Afterthat, they left while I accompanied Jessica to a nearby market at Carnegie. I tot I could still last an hr more, but while walking to that market, I swear that I dozed off while walking. I would blink and open my eyes a second later to find myself deviated from my path by 20degrees!!!
By the time I reached back to my place, I immediately got changed and jumped into my bed to sleep. From 10am till 4.30pm. So tired....
