this week has just been.. amazing.

on monday, i met the gymmers for a photo session in the gym. they then surprised me with a quick birthday party despite interrupting my racing game with the birthday song. then on thursday, my dept had a small celebration for the may babies. and since jenny had gotten my birth date on the first day of my work, i was called up as well. the cheesecake was good stuff.

thursday after work, i went back to sch for bible study before we all headed to zx's place for the retreat. ate so much during the retreat. after the tree top walk on friday morning, we went to thompson plaza for lunch and bought so much ice cream. i lurve that stuff. ahahaha. the retreat was tiring, more tiring than the rest. and yea... will need to get smth for zx's family soon. as a token of appreciation. can't believe i forgot.

during the retreat, the previous exco(+partners) joined us on the last night. it was also another bday surprise. i kinda suspected it already but hey, i really appreciated the gesture and the thought of it. the CFers never fail to amuse me. last year's surprise was good. i really thought it was a belated party for ansen! but this year... ahahaha.. fun nevertheless. we played cranium, ate bertie botts beans (i got pepper!) and sang ktv 'til the girls were deadbeat. didn't get to watch vegetales though.. haiz.

on sat, i had lunch with my family at Mad Jacks. the grilled fish was a lot! it wasn't fantastic but it wasn't terrible either. just.. normal. but the company made up for it. then after dinner, i met with steph, deb, jt, sher and dennis at alleybar. they tried to get me drunk. so after i had downed more than half of my alley bliss (stella artois, cranberry and soda), they bought me 3 shots of Mexican which tasted like alcoholic fruit punch and one flaming lamborgini.

10 min after my last drink, i was hit my giddiness.. with my throat and liver screaming at me. then the night ended with one tequila shot. i could still walk normally and was honestly impressed by my threshold. no puking! and i woke up without a hangover! whoot!

however, being one year older isn't all worth celebrating. i'm still getting nagged abt my non-existent love life. not that i'm complaining abt the non-existent state.. i'm contented with it... just as i'll be contented if i get attached. que sara sara; whatever will be, will be.

i'm finally going to get off my bum and learn driving. why the sudden interest? Mommsy might be buying the Mercedes B200. ok, i know people have heard me say that i don't like Mercedes. i don't like the usual sedans they carry. they are bulky and squarish. gimme me my audi any day. or a chaffeur and a jaguar or rolls royces.. or that white cadilac that i've been eyeing at the motor shop... but yes. the Mercedes B200 is actually gorgeous.
i have a weakness for SUVs. this one, in saturn red, is the one that's on Mom's mind. and i can see why. if i finally get my license and since my older sister's new job requires her to travel a lot, i may be entitled to car usage more on the weekends! *dreaming*
