21st bday summary!

My 21st birthday celebrations were a blast! Really thank God that for the past two years I didn't celebrate, this year combined 3 years in 1 worth of celebration..really happy..

Celebrated with my family+relatives+cell group on 28 Feb (which made alot of people think my twin sis and I were born on 29 Feb or something -_-; Actual is 3 March..). Was really blessed above and beyond what I expected, as my relatives really went the extra mile to get us things we would appreciate.

(Apologies for no pictures at the moment! I will update them on FB/here when I can. I can't find my cable right now..) Edited: Pics are up now!

Twin sis and I were glad to have our awesomest perfect cake. MUAHAHA. >D Watch out for the pic to know the full powahhh. It's not a '21' or a key..it's..

a GIANT CHOCOLATE 'R'!!!!

Also had a movie outing+dinner with some of the choir people..and was surprised and touched they remembered/bothered so much for me. :)

-Favourite present: Flowers! :) From my eldest sis.

random bday wishlist

THANK YOU GOD for Your protection, always.

I believe in the power of prayer.

Sometimes, I may not be able to understand what God is doing in my life. Why some things happen, or some things don't happen..

But, in the end, its always cos of His divine plan.

I'll never be able to understand fully, but I'm going to learn to trust Him more..!

Especially when I pray for certain things, and things start to happen, I must be more accepting of it..

Open heart needs open mind. And even bigger open ears to hear HS.

Still waiting for the day I can do this.. :(

I wonder if I ask for this as my birthday present from my parents, will they let me..?

Or they might just throw me in the swimming pool..

Yes, I can do it after turning 21 without asking them, but its not very nice..God, tell me how? Want to maintain Your commandment of honouring parents, but at the same time want to go for it..

(pray somemore is the only thing I can do..)

I guess I should be coming out with some bday wishlist..

I know everyone is giving into building fund..so I don't really expect presents, if its hard..

I'm (in)famous for asking people to give me socks for the past 5 years (I need it and it helps you save money what....)

People have since -_- at me and refuse to humour me anymore....and I already got enough sock supply..

So, I'm attempting to be more normal this time, since it's 21st bday and all..Here's some stuff I randomly want..

*ahem* RANDOM WISHLIST LOL!

1) Accesories (key words: unique, funky, unusual, bold, cool, big)
This includes things like Watches, hats, bracelets/bangles, chokers, belts, caps, etc..

The more the merrier!

2) Fragrances (key words: floral, sweet, refreshing)
Ok, actually fragrances are very random, but I don't know what else to put in this 'wishlist'..

I like Adidas floral dream..so anything along that line..But..what I really want is Salvatore Ferragamo for Women..but so ex....

I don't mind tester, I can put into my own mini bottle! :D

3) Clothes
Vouchers also can. Haha.

Don't mind jeans, or any clothes you think suits me..you all should know what I like/look good in..includes shoes (all types) and jackets. I'm a jacket/hoodie freak!

4) Bags (key words: durable, classic/easy to match?, practical, pretty)
It's really hard to shop for me, if you look at my list so far...

5) $$$
Hahahaha. Who doesn't want? Anyone want to give love offering? =X

And here's my how-I-wish list...

6) DSi (I don't have a PSP or DS at all. The DSi is the newest version, but yet to reach sg.)
7) Netbook/mini laptop
8) Books, CDs (have a lot that I want..)
9) MP3 player (to replace the one that kena stolen....:( )
10) Blackberry or windows mobile enabled phone
11) CAR!!!
12) Concert tickets (to Jason Mraz, Coldplay..)

..ok, this list is very lame and random. And probably not very helpful. ^^;;

Actually, I just want to be going out with a bunch of good friends on my bday. :) Because that day don't have choir pract right?? Dinner dinner dinner~? Currently have no plans.. >.<;;

My love language is Acts of Service!! Show your care creatively, ok? :D

GST offset package, whoots! Gahmen giving me bday present..HAHA....

Happy 21st Birthday Candice!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANDICE!

To someone who has been there for me throughout all these years, been ever so patient, a true representation of sisterly love to another, a great friend..when I don't know what to do, you just listen, when I need encouragement, you're always ready to tell me 'jiayou'!

I can't even begin saying how much I love CANDICE!!! <33

I thank God that He placed YOU in my life, and I'm glad to be your good friend too! :)

I pray that you get to fulfill God's calling in your life even more, and that as you sacrifice to seek His face more and more, you will not lose out, but instead, have all abundance added unto you.

Even as you try to figure your direction out more clearly, to find out what to do, what you need to have/not have, I hope you are greatly blessed with clarity and wisdom in mind.

And I'm going out of the house to meet you in a few hours time. ;)

I'm EMPLOYED! PRAISE GOD!!!

I got a job! THANK YOU GOD!!!!!!

On Monday, I'll be starting as a clinic assistant in a Japanese clinic in Orchard. I'm really happy, everything is as I needed, such as the days I need off for Drama are approved. Monday when I 'put ink to paper' I'll be woohoo. Working hours are office hours, 5 1/2 day week. Jobscope seems manageable, I just need to learn from the people what to do.

And I can wear jeans! :D Although shoes have to be all white, covered. I hope my white+gray with green swoosh Nike pair will do, if not I have to run to the nearest shop and get another pair.

I'm employed on my birthday! Monday I'm officially 20, and I have a job, a way to help pay for some of the SOT course fees, my application fee has been paid (got to return the money to helpful member), and my NTU application is waiting for NTU to contact me for interview! Whoot!

So after I was done with the interview, met up with my squaddies. An early celebration for my birthday, since I, er, reserved most of March for DM. ^^; We ate at Mad Jack Cafe in Bedok. I LOVE MAD JACK CAFE. I visited the Bukit Timah branch a few times. I'm happy to find one in Bedok. Next time, I feel like dapao-ing or something. Cheap and delicious. Don't go for the baked rice though, not very value for money. Beef burger is Good, spicy mixed cheese fries are Good, desserts are GOOD but you might be put off chocolate and sweet things for a while after eating them (Oz Brownie, and Wild Boy which is a banana crumble thing, are two recommended ones from me). I didn't try the fish and chips at this branch, that's going to be my aim on my next visit.

I can't believe they charge $0.50 for water though. 5% GST and you have to bring your order form to the counter. Anyway, JUST GO EAT THERE LAHHH. YUMMY AND AFFORDABLE. And it's HALAL. Which is why we ended up going there, got to find a place where everyone can eat.

I got early pressies! Ayumi's 'Guilty' album (anyone want the poster??), and a few other miscellaneous cheaper things which I specifically asked for. Like plasters! XD Plasters are important you know. You don't think about their importance until something like your shoe blistering your feet occurs.
