Bye 2006, hello 2007.

Yesterday (an hour ago, practically) was my brother's 16th birthday and we went to Swensen's to celebrate! Every year on my birthday I'd never get a treat as such because my birthday, whilst in Crescent, always falls on Common Test days. It was always just a cake.

He had Swensen's you know! And well, almost the whole world is celebrating with him. Every year the whole world celebrates with him.


















Ice-cream cake! My dad never fails to remind me every year when my birthday gets near that he'd never be tricked into buying another ice-cream cake for me. He burned a hole in his pocket (or so he claimed to have) when he bought me a Haagen Daaz chocolate ice-cream which cost him $98.

Well, he can't complain can he.

He brought me to the shop and told me to choose, so choose I did and you can't blame me for exquisite taste cause I was only turning 7 then, celebrating the 1st birthday in my primary school years.

7 year-old kids don't really rationalise about how much a cake costs and how huge a hole it'd burn in the pockets of their parents. They care only about the appearance & taste & flavour of the cake - like me, 10 years and more than a few months ago.

2006 flew by before I had a chance to bid it goodbye. I can't say it was one of my best years, but it was definetely a memorable and enjoyable one wherein I made many many new friends and found so much more freedom.

It's also the first year I had my own room. Something I waited for for 10 years. Aaahhh. Long wait it was.

This is also the first year I stepped into the cinema so many times. 2 years ago if I ever watched 4 movies in a year I'd consider it quite a great feat already.

1. The Chronicles of Narnia (I watched this exactly 1 year ago, on 1/1/06)
2. Marrying The Mafia II (ridiculously funny)
3. I Not Stupid 2/Too
4. Season of Love
5. Fearless (霍霍霍霍霍霍霍霍!)
6. The Prestige
7. My Girl & I (Was it in 2006?)
8. Happy Feet (Mumble!)
9. Tokyo Drift - The Fast & The Furious
10. The Curse Of The Golden Flower
11. Night At The Museum (My favourite out of all of them!)
12. Silent Hill (How eventful...not.)
13. Flushed Away

There's another gathering later!

Aaaaahhhh.
