八月十五：中秋节


WAH, YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG IT TOOK ME TO GET THOSE SEVEN WORDS OUT. Seriously, my chinese is totally buang. Damn.



So yup, it's finally 中秋节! This afternoon, I hung out with Stefanie in town and we did a little shopping. It's been ages since I spent money on retail therapy, and it feels gooddddddd. Amelia joined us for a while too and off we went to play with lanterns like usual.

This is the first time I am in charge of getting the lanterns and stuff, so I totally messed things up. We were short of one lantern, no sticks for holding lanterns and insufficient candles. Oppsie!

Kinda pathetic eh. :(


As I was saying, we were one short of lantern so someone has to make do without a lantern and..




Kaiwen didn't get one because she was busy on the phone while we girls were picking the lanterns.

Heeheehee.

Tried to pacify her by taking a shot with all the lanterns:


And yes, Kaiwen.. I'll remember your lantern next year.



Played with candles and I got artistic..


I am so cool.




Let's go back on memory lane..

September 2005

... and now, 2007.

How much we've changed, isn't it? 2005, we were busying ourselves, mugging hard for O levels, without any trace of make up on our face, I still had my braces on.

Hahaha.

And now.. Woah.. Really amazes me how time can morph us into nice, refined ladies. Hahhhhhhhhhh.

To think about it, I'm so glad I'm still in touch and still BFF with the girlies. It's so nice growing up and reminiscing good old times together. Let's never drift apart.



I know I'm so gonna diss how I look like now, in 1 year's time. And eh, it kinda upsets me that I couldn't find the post to last year's 中秋节. :( Stupid archives.
