- the best day after soo many weeks

Surprises after Surprises.
Wish after Wishes.
One by One.

and the feeling of being loved, cared for and remembered sure is nice. friends that i thought have disappeared into thin air actually wished me! people who i hardly talk to in school wished me too! i think that is sweet.

and of course, the fact that your loved ones are there with you to celebrate the day you become a year older is just beyond words.

Surprise #1
- went into feature writing class.. den there! the class had actually prepared something for me.. aww.. it was all nurul's idea.. Ms Kwa had actually wanted the cupcakes on last thurs but nurul told her to get it today instead since it was my bdae..so yeah the cupcakes were arranged in a letter F for Farah and then the class started singing for me.. i almost teared cause it was so unexpected.. thks to u guyz once again.. and of course nurul, thks for the cross-stitch bdae card..

Surprise #2
- around 15 minutes after we settled down eating the cupcakes, there was this delivery man that was looking for me with a big box, a bouquet of flowers and a big balloon.. i was erm blur.. i mean who the heck would send me that.. but i opened the card and i realised it was from my parents! i was sooo touched and surprised and totally out of words !! man, i almost teared!





it was a blackforest cake and a bouquet of 18 dark pink and white roses.. so i cut and pass the cake to everyone..... well sorry there ain't any paper plates so tissue paper it will be.. lol.. after the whole class including Ms Rahita got it, there was still about 1/4 more.. so went to look for Ms Kwa to give her some in return of the cupcakes... since she was with 05, they got a bit of the cake too.. had fun with the 05 people for a while running around trying to peep in.. lol..

Surprise #3
- we were actually supposed to have dinner at Hyatt but last min, mum told me that we ain't goin there. we ended up going to Bali Thai, which i didn't mind either coz i love the tom yam and the rendang dere.. sis was helping me take pics wen suddenly nat and nunu appeared wishing me happy birthday! awww!!! i was soo freaking shocked and happy! mum actually went through all the trouble to invite them to surprise me!

no wonder we didn't go Hyatt! hahaha.. but at least mum promised me that we would some time soon.. so after dinner it was opening present time.. i opened nunu's one first and it was a handmade charmies.. wee!~ nice!~ her gifts are always soo personalised and i love it!





and all the other prezies were from the family.. i got a D&G watch, a nice cute white bear, 3 items for my bedroom(that are all so lovely and pretty) and a Novo bag(which i will be changing to a shoe tmrw). and oh ya, still 2 more prezzies to come... nx week i will be getting my birkenstock sandals which i ordered online.. den on 26 aug, i would be goin for a make-over which mum had it arranged already.. and i'm glad its on a day wen all the exams are over! after all the prezzie, it was the cake time.. and i love the candles on it! its soo pretty and cute.. and the cake was nice.. strawberry and erm smth..

* nat & nunu, thks for being a part of my life and of course, coming all the way down just to celebrate with me.. i love u gerls a lot! (hugs and kisses!)

so we were the last customers there.. haha.. on the way home, watched Final Destination 3 in the car.. sent nunu and nat back and reached home ard almost 11... packed all the prezzies and see where i place my new cute bear and of course, the big balloon and the bouquet.. was then too tired to do MMR or DMA.. haha..

ok so tt was my 18th birthday story.. i tot it would be the worst after what happenned a week ago plus all the exam and project stress but with all the wishes from unexpected people and all the surprises, it was simply a memorable one.. and of course, the fact that you were the first and that we are still as we are, i think that kinda make my day too..
i think u noe that i still 143.

all this wouldn't have been possible, if not for mum and dad.. thks for everything and making my every bdae a memorable one.. my last year's sweet 17th bdae party is still soo clear in my head now.. no wonder you guyz are the best parents in the whole wide world!

I LOVE U, MUM & DAD!

i reali appreaciate the effort u put in for this and the amount u guyz actually spent on me.. i'm soo glad and thankful. and of course, thank you sis and bro for doing and writing such a sweet card! and to all that wished me, thks once again!
