FEST LA VIE and my BIRTHDAY!!!

Fest La Vie 07 was a hit!

the whole experience was tiring yet rewarding. we had endless meetings till 11pm on alternate nights before the event and i had to combine both lunch and dinner together for those nights. damn sad for my poor stomach. for the past 2 days, i only had a total of 2.5 hours of sleep during the event. i am such a heavy workaholic that i stayed up on the first night to finish the slides presentation. given the lack of sleep mindset, it was extremely energy draining for me to be on high alert for 4 hours straight during the event. however, all our hard work was paid off. i heard pple say they had never seen such a huge crowd of pple at central forum before. we had the first auction ever held in nus. the wonderful hosts and entertaining performers made our event even more successful.

furthermore, i got to know the committee much better. we had a new member - prog's gd friend, rubbish woman, my new lover, and most importantly, my fellow prog cellmate! CH is a damn strong guy, slacker and gian peng. FLV was fun partly because of the wonderful programme cell. the 4 of us (goi, dabai, ch and i) could get along very well, having fun together during meetings and not forgetting our favourite activity, banging each other. go to the V at central forum and you will get what i mean.

i was talking to goi today about FLV and we realised how much we miss FLV. although i am seriously lagging behind in my schoolwork because of FLV, we want to continue to work for FLV 07. i guess we are just suffering from post event sickness.

one day after FLV was my 20th birthday!!! yeah!!! i had finally reached the big 2! seriously, the age does not bother me now. sadly, i had a lab session on my birthday till 5pm. anyway, i had a simple dinner with my parents outside. this year, my birthday was a simple and quiet affair. in fact, i like it that way. i dont want to spend my birthday partying or drinking thru the night with friends till i puke. i am happy to know that my family and friends remember my bday. that's enough.

due to the lack of sleep, i actually fell asleep in front of the TV after my dinner. i woke up at 10pm sharp to catch my show and then my door bell rang. i thot it was some neighbour and i was too lazy to bother who he/she was. after that, i saw mh, goi, hq and dabai. they bought a bday cake and heinken. thanks guys for making the trip down. pleasant surprise again! =)

today, went to botak jones at clementi to have dinner with liting. i haven seen this girl for sometime and she still looks the same. we started talking about our common friends and we realised how much we care for jiefang, and how much we misses pee. it is just wonderful to know that secondary friends are still by your side after so many years. love them lots!

jiefang, my first time celebrating my birthday without you since we have been friends. it is a very STRANGE feeling. i shall call you soon!!! pick up my call. =)
