Reminisce Celestial Temptation Celebrated my 21st Birthday. one that i'd never imagine will happen. It's really like going through a mini wedding dinner alone. Fortunately, I have so many friends and relatives who helped me with the preparation and most importantly, their presence at the party. GD who came up with the theme 'Remember Me This Way' that requires everyone to bring along something that reminds them of me. Not forgetting the pretty-looking guest book which you've spent so much time doing. Puay cher who helped decorated the place and hosted the party. Shaikh who even surprised me with the stack of invitation cards to be circulated around. Rongsheng who's my official camera-man for the night and others who have helped him. Kylie who rushed down from her busy schedule so as not to disappoint me and thanks for the cool surprise. My parents whom, of course, paid the bulk of the dinner. CHAMAYS who have been so sporting to give a speech that night and especially Mien's long and funny poem (with lotsa 'inside' joke): *************************************************************************************

Last year, the number of "grand" birthday parties were countless because most of my friends hit 21. so the very same year, this was what happened at Meritus Mandarin - Triple 3... 
Was the day i promised myself never to perm my hair.
The day i saw you bouncing around to "Get Down" on the mayflower stage,
was the day i promised myself never to dance again.
OH MY GOD.Your Curry pok fringe and translucent giordano windbreaker, combined with backstreet boy's "Get Down",
you were the coolest kid in town.
But that was so long ago, when we all had pagers and ocean pacific wallets.
The official last day of sec school, was the day we first chilled out.
Never did i imagine i'll be friends with the curry pok girl.
These few years have come and gone.
Let me recall what we did.
I remember Star Cruise, and how little we did.
I remember sleeping after breakfast, lunch and dinner just because u were "blind".
I remember how we missed our breakfast n boatride to Malacca because we were all still in slumber.
Oh i remember.
I remember that year, when you spent the last few moments before christmas in wheelock's toilet, waiting for someone.
I remember how even the toilet wouldn't accomodate you.
U pulled your pants down, ready to sit and wait but the intercom came on.
"Dear shoppers, please note that our building will be closing in 15 minutes."
Oh i remember.
I remember Thailand, and how CHAM was first formed.
I remember the day when i hugged u so tightly and we "ben1 xiang4 tai4 yang2" on our jetski.
I remember the highlight of our trip, when we witnessed the skill of unbottling caps with our ass.
I remember toto and i remember Ah Pong.
Oh i remember.
Opps!Sorry i got carried away,
i just remembered it's your birthday!Happpy birthday xiaoli!
I thank you for all you've done,I thank you for your eternal humour,
And i thank you for not loving strawberries like bestfriend and ame do."
