More Than Just B'day Celebrations...

as life goes on, we eventually realise what brings us genuine happiness... :)
-
and so, for both Pei Ying and Hui Ling, we celebrated their 18th in a way different from the usual going to a fancy restaurant for dinner kind of birthday.
-
On 29th May, which is exactly one day before Pei Ying's actual birthday, we had a jogging-cum-birthday celebration for her! talking about pei ying, the first thing that comes to my mind would be her saying "我的脸...!" x) it's really funny when she says it in her high pitched voice.

-

actually, she always describes things funnily like, she used to tell me how contacts lenses get stucked to her eyeball, how she becomes outstanding in a queue and a lot more that never fails to make me laugh :D i vividly remember those days in form1 when i sat next to her, laughing until we cry was a daily routine. and yes, she's someone very nice to talk to because she gives practical advices. :)

the street light was turned on, so we took a picture with it. it was still bright anyways :)

well, jogging was fun :) thanks mun wai for driving us to alina's house after that. thanks chee hung for baking the cake. thanks Brindle (alina's BIG dog that runs with your shoes) for welcoming us and thanks alina's mommy for preparing the scrumptious dinner.
-
had a really good time chatting with them at the dining table. nothing else can be better than that, just talking, reminiscing and laughing continuously. :)

the food we 'ta pao' from err... a lot of different places in taman tun. we even bought 2 durians! x) haha.

-

after eating everyone was so full, we didn't know what to do we started taking pictures using timer. i'm not too sure if it was a good idea or not XD

taking pictures by placing the camera on the floor when everyone stands around it means you got to laugh when you look at the picture. somehow there'll always be one unlucky person who looks extremely amusing in the picture. the pictures are still with alina but it's already stucked in my head, gosh.

we were laughing so much that qing xian's mommy text messaged her from 5th floor asking us to lower our volume. eeks, really sorry if we were too loud. it's seriously not that easy to hold back your laughter when you look at those pictures XD

-

at last, a proper group picture. :)
-

May this be a memorable birthday for you two... ^^
