21

Hard days come and go,
Is there something I can make out of nothing?

I've broken the promises to myself countless time,
I am trustworthy to myself?

If I stumble and fall down hard,
Who will pick me up?

This is where I look at the choices to be made,
And I choose it carefully.
-Choices.





















Well, I am finally 21. If you want to know if there is a difference? Yes there is for me! I've thought about what I wanted to do for my 21st birthday for such a long time, and I did it, with the help of close friends whom I owe so much, for their ideas, effort and support. I have a ton of photos, and I'm not going to show all in one go plus the numerous videos I have of people doing charades! I'm going to do it in parts, starting with the start of my party! =)

Kwan's 21st Birthday at 21 Maple Ave.
The theme is Black and White!
Dresscode:Black and White

But first... I'd like to thank several people who helped make my birthday a success!

Jolene for baking for me my Birthday cake!(cupcake) And for helping me take photographs and with my charades =) (What would I do without you huh>?)

Dominic for his support and helping me the day before my birthday, he is someone who is the definition of what a bro is, he helped me with buying the drinks, tons of coke and coke light... shopping for the door gift materials... bringing out the tables and chairs to be used for the party from the store.

Teena for shopping with me for props for the charades! I just had so much fun hitting you with the styrofoam toys! Haha. =)

Sharan for helping me with preparing the Door gift and setting up the place before the guests arrived. I would have died if you did not come hours earlier =)

Robert for helping me take photos throughout my party. You were a great help with the photos! I wouldn't have these photos without you! =)

To everyone who came to my party and was sporty with the acitivities, you guys are a large part of my life, and you guys have given me great memories that remind that life is truly worth living because of people like you guys =)

Now... on to the start of the party.

I was busy baking cookies for my door gift. The day before, I
had gone with dominic to get the bags and tie.



















Then Sharan came earlier to help me setup the tables and chairs. Which was a great help, because of the lack of manpower. It was just me and my maid who was busy working in the kitchen to prepare something for my mum.

Here are some of the guests who arrived early!














Teena and me















Rachel and me



















Mable and me














Yi hau, Abraham, Ghanim and me.

Dev had brought along his model carbine and I was setting it up... It was now prop check time!(A.k.A playing with toys like a little kid... =P)







































The guys were then starting to mix around... The party had just begun...



































John and Daryl starting playing wii boxing!


The first few guests had arrived and the waiters were busy preparing for drinks and serving...




















































Finally... Jolene came! With the cake!=)














And so this marked the start of my birthday party! =) Thats all for now... Much much more to come! =) Adieu to all. Dream a dream of dreams.

Find the moment

I don't let the clock bother me,
In these hurried times,
I've found that the moments move by so fast,
Even when you hold onto it.

Time doesn't stop, but it can slow down.

Stop and take a breath,
Reflect on what your doing,
Remember the time,
The time when you just smiled.

Thats when the time slows down.
-Find the moment

Lovable lil sis.

Voodoo2

The music blasts as the crowd moves,
The sky is like a puff of blinding smoke,
The people raise their hands into the the fray,
I feel myself drifting in the crowd.

Until the lights shine on my face.

My face is not my own,
But the eyes are mine,
The voice is not mine,
But the smile is mine.

Feel my gaze and see my smile.
-Look at me looking at you.
