Parties, School and Life Part II - June, July, August, September 2011

Today is supposed the start of Year Three! But lessons are only officially starting tomorrow and therefore I'm taking this chance to blog a little before going out to meet Baby later. Yes. 2012, has been quite an ironic year. This has gotta be the most probably depressing first half of the year for me I guess. And my dear boy has gotta be the only thing that is the best thing that ever happened to me this year. Well, but before I start blogging about the first one-third of 2012, I'mma start blogging about the second half of 2011 first. :)

And so continuing on, June 2011 started off with me visiting Choir Camp'11! The alumni sang Come Travel With Me and being there as an audience was really a nostalgic one! :') Those memories that Dunman Choir had pieced up throughout my Secondary school years is really an unforgettable part of my life. Then come mid June, Brother got enlisted into Army just like every Singaporean Son. The trip to Tekong with Daddy, Mummy, Sister and Vanessa was a fun one! :) Brother got into Kestrel Coy and we bid him goodbye for two weeks. Then come my holidays and we headed to Jakarta as usual for Father's Day and Grandpa's birthday. We celebrated Father's Day Lunch at a vegetarian restaurant different from 2010. And then Grandpa's birthday was celebrate at Teochew Palace in Mega Mall. It was truly an unforgettable night. But never did we all expect that it is the last birthday that we were to celebrate with Grandpa...












July was like a new start for me in school with new group mates and all. Then there was the class first chalet at Coasta Sands (Pasir Ris). We had great fun and I had a new nick name "Esteecia" just because I couldn't stand the stickiness of the floor when we first entered the chalet and started to mop the floor with the cloth while the rest of the class were just staring at me. Hahaha! :) But it was really memorable with Joshua telling us stories about the different dimensions of the world and the most unforgettable part was when I seriously thought I head a snake sound coming from under the bed and I screamed and Aaron jumped along with me! Hahahahaha! :) And so Ophys has a meet-up dinner too and I attended with Darling Dee! It was pretty fun meeting up with the people! I really kinda miss camp but honestly I don't have the time to commit, which is why I didn't dare join DOC for both years despite Si Tian's encouragement! :/ Towards the end of July, we celebrated Mama's 81st Birthday at Er-yi's house! It was fun as usual just meeting the cousins and all! :) 













August! Apart from the busy schedule at school, I basically get to meet up with the RHG people for a dinner at INSOMNIA@CHJIMES! The place serves really great food and the al-fresco dining was not too bad! :)  And I remember Brother making me really angry on a certain day and I refused to forgive him! Then Mummt planned this dinner at Astons@Changi Airport as I happened to be doing work then with Elson at Starbucks! To please Mummy, I just had to forgive him and he pinched me when we patched! -.- Oh and there's Sister's birthday celebration at Sizzler! That place is highly recommended for salad bar buffet! It's really good! :)











Start of September and the sad news hit the B's! Our Dearest Wai Yan Hazel B. Chin has to return to Malaysia to serve her nation! Yes, Malaysian girls has to serve their nation as they go through balloting votings! And so Clarissa and her planned a chalet for her friends to have a last reunion before she bid us goodbye for 3 months with no contact! Then the following week, I attended the Not-Too-Identical Twins 21st Birthday at the same chalet but different unit! I volunteered to help Mr Chow be his photographer and ever since then I have been taking up voluntary projects of many many birthday celebrations! I'mma happy girl with a camera to capture the happy memories! :D We got to met two new friends, and among them has gotta be one special one hehehe! :P Okay, not gonna disclose anything much yet because it's supposed 2011 September post! I'm really glad and thankful to Mummy who allowed me to stay at the chalet for two consecutive nights, allowing me to have so much fun with my Bros and Sistas! :)

Of course why Mummy allowed was because I was to start working at DHL for that whole month of holidays, which is another thankful matter I've gotta thank Mummy once again! The pay is really good and I really enjoyed my whole course of working at DHL along side with the bimbo Vanessa Chong! I met so many wonderful colleagues which includes Michelle, Jonathan, Fauzi, etc. and DHL really taught me a lot! It was a job that completely trusted us part-timers to work on our own. I had to lias with other countries DHL staff and send formal emails and this job really taught me a lot about the working society. :)
















 Okay, seems like I gotta continue October, November and December another time round! Really gotta start vacuuming the floor a little and start preparing to go out to meet my Baby Dearest! Till next time!

Love, Estee

Parties, School and Life Part I

Well well well, ironically it's my first blog post of this year when the year 2011 is about to end. The thing is, with Twitter, there isn't much a need for me to blog. But since I chance upon my blog, thought I might as well just blog a little something. Well, this year has indeed been good and bad at the same time.

January was pretty awesome with the New Year celebration and Pre-CNY celebration. Shopping for CNY clothes and all. I highlighted my hair for the very first time! It was a whole new experience and it didn't turn out as I thought it'd be!


And moving on to February was the CNY celebrations! Sister's Year of the Rabbit. As usual, we headed to the various house for visiting! It was also the last year that we were to celebrate CNY at 二姑姑's house in Bedok Reservoir before she moved to Marsiling. Then there was Li Yun & Brother's 21st Birthday! Love and missing Bro's 21st celebration at The Aranda. Was busy preparing the proposal for his birthday alongside with my other I/C Zerlina. :) It's so funny that I came up with the Word Proposal for his birthday plan. There were the usual games, performances put up by Zerlina, Davin, Nicholas, myself and the birthday boy himself!











March was crazy crazy Project 1 production! The stop motions, 2D animation, 3D animation, Sound recordings! Those were really the days. :) Even when there were miscommunication, disputes here and there but we still hang on together as a group. Joanne, Mildred, Rafiqah and Ying Hui. Thanks girls!







April was Happy Holidays! Started out with WeiYing's 21st birthday celebration in the first week! Yes, the funny fact about this year's 21st birthday parties for the cousins - It's all held at Aranda Country Club. And as expected since it's the long holidays, I headed back to Bureau Veritas to work again! It was also Qing Ming Festival and as usual we headed back to Tg.Balai to pay respects to our ancestors. Food there was awesome as usual! Kim Yong Da Mee, Bak Kut Teh, Rasa Sayang Seafood, Long Beach, Murtabak, Bakso, Heh Pia, Gado gado and so much more! Can't wait for 2012's April! :)









May! My Birthday Month! :) And it was also the beginning phase of Year Two. Time really flies. And the end of the first block was the party weekend! Friday was Delia's 18th! And it was my celebration with my Poly mates. Thanks to those turned up. :) Benjamin, Joanne, Joshua, Mildred, Rafiqah,Uriah and Ying Hui! Thank you girls & Benjamin for the Birthday Hat. :) We dined at Tampines One's Secret Recipe at about 9 plus because it was submission day and everyone was rushing to submit the Final Assignment for 2D Animation Techniques!






Then Saturday was supposedly set to celebrate with the B's but due to some mis-plan, I the birthday girl decided to plan Delia and my 18th at Timbre! :) It was a lil' awkward because I asked DASERS along too and yet Delia's friends were not able to turn up! But everything turned out pretty awesome except that dear Wai Yan couldn't make it. :/ But nonetheless we had fun. :) Kathy had to leave at about 11 plus and so Ziyi and Delia with her. While the rest of the DASERS who turned up decided to head down to Clarke Quay for some drinks by the bay. Lee Hao bought me Vodka as a present and so we open it up and got Jason to buy drinks from Macdonald's! It was a nice night as I got to meet Rebecca for the first time that very night! The other half of the DASERS couldn't make it because they were at Taiwan but it's fine! There's always next year guys! :) Delia, Kathy, Zi Yi, Cheng Hua, Rebecca, Andy, Rahim, Lee Hao, Jason, Xiao Zhao and last but not least Jerome Kho. Thanks for celebrating this day with me. :) Love the presents too! Thanks all :)










And Sunday, which was my actual birthday was dedicated to my family! :) Just had a simple dinner celebration at Sakae Teppanyaki @ Airport and I swear I'm going back there every year on my birthday! It was Sister's treat for me and we bought a cake afterwards to cut at the end of the day! Thanks all for making my 18th a memorable one! And of course those long text messages by my dearest friends who made an effort to text and not FB! Haha! Just kiddin'! Thanks all who wished me!







Love,
Estee.
