One-Third: Celebrating Andrew's Birthday

Yesterday night, we celebrated Andrew's 25th birthday by having a dinner at California Pizza Kitchen at Forum shopping centre at Orchard.

While waiting for everyone to arrive, I took photos of the people already there. In the left photo you see Bella and Julie. On the right, you see a very uncooperative Jien (it wasn't her best angle) and a blurry-looking Andrew because he was laughing and moved before the photo was captured.

By 7:30pm, all had arrived. We finally ordered, and not before long, the food was served! On the left, I think the name is Milan pizza? And on the right, chicken masala pasta. All not bad!

We also ordered the wild mushroom pizza, which was thin crust:On top of all this, we ordered the tortilla, which wasn't great because it was burnt. Andrew also went ahead and ordered another pasta (to which I didn't catch the name) and the cheeseburger pizza. Both, I didn't take photos. The cheeseburger pizza was good though! Really tasted like a burger on a pizza crust, which was rather cool! Bella was VERY amazed by it.

We then had a birthday brownie and vanilla ice-cream for Andrew:
On top of the brownie, Jien ordered a turtle sundae for all of us to share. It came in a big cup! 3 scoops of vanilla ice-cream, hot fudge, pecans and caramel:I'm not a big fan of caramel and I was feeling really full already so I didn't have much of it. It was nice though!

In the meantime, lots of conversation topics were covered. And at one point in time, Jien got all "worked up" (not really, but I can't think of a better, more appropriate word at the moment), she was sticking her spoon in the air as she asserted her point. We loved that moment and asked her to pose for photos in an effort to capture that moment/expression/spirit on camera.

And of course, a group photo before we left for our own homes:

Random #1: SUMMER HAS COME EARLY! The weather these few days have been AWESOME. After Monday lectures, Po Yew, Janice and I made a quick trip to the Millenium Gardens just next to Law School to take photos. The sky is so blue, the sun is so bright, the grass is so green, the flowers are in full bloom... Forget about jackets. In Po Yew's words, which he said very happily, "The girls are wearing nothing!" Girls are walking around in mini skirts sans stockings and in spaghetti tops. Many people are now lounging around on grass patches too. I look out of my room window to see a group of people on the grass. And they actually brought out their computer screen from their room! Random #2: DINNER TIME FEELS LIKE LUNCH TIME Days are getting longer now. At 7pm, it feels like it's still 4pm. Get this, I took this photo at 7pm. Random #3: SMALL GROUP OUTING I actually just got back from a small group outing to the bowling alley, which also had a bar and a game arcade. A lot of pe...

Magical Christmas 2009 has come 11 months early

It has been snowing most of today, and everything is covered in snow - a beautiful, magical, pretty sight! It really is unbelievable how much snow there now is in Nottingham. Because it's Nottingham! It never snows in Nottingham, at least not for many many years past! Even in London, I heard that it's snowing so much that Heathrow airport was closed, train and tube services were stopped, SCHOOL LESSONS WERE CANCELLED! Why can't we have classes cancelled over here?! When I first woke up, I knew it would snow at certain points of today (but I didn't expect THIS much snow!). First shot of the day: Then the first of today's many snowfalls began at about 9plus in the morning. Here are 2 photos of the snow that collected on my windowsill: Another 'boliao' video of the snow falling: Before I knew it, it was time to go to school for lectures. After my 2 back-to-back lectures, I walked back with John and Po Yew. But, before we headed out of school, we went to the Dow...

Like some Airline video

I just watched the 3+ minutes of the "final chapter" of Little Nyonya, the Channel 8 drama serial that ended last week. [Spoiler alert] I think it is so unnecessary? Anyhow, from the time of 2:59 onwards, I felt like I was watching some kind of Airline video, the one where they would show before the airplane takes off, briefing all passengers on what to do in cases of emergencies and stuff like that? Seeing Chen Xi stand behind Yueniang like that reminds me of when the air stewards and stewardesses on the video would end the video saying, "Thank you for your attention. Have a pleasant flight." Don't you think so? On the topic of Little Nyonya, I read an article from Mediacorp TV about this "Final Chapter" and I really wonder why people are making so much noise over a drama serial such that Mediacorp people have to step out to make further explanation! It's quite ridiculous, frankly. Just read it here . After reading it, I laughed. AND the DVD is co...
