On the day before
Potluck dinner at Irene's place. I want to thank my Wellington friends for coming and made it such an enjoyable potluck party, filled with very yummy lip-smacking food. Special thanks to Irene, Kuok, Julia and Jason for offering their place for the potluck. I really had a good time!
The cake, taro flavoured though not as big as the one from kyh
All of us!
On the day
It was a fine, sunny day. Rick was being such a darling, he brought me to Botanical Garden for the Rose Festival. The garden was filled with beautiful, multi colour roses with pleasant scent of roses wafting thought the air. The roses were in their full bloom all in different colours and sizes.
NOW...my camwhoring picture. Hehehehe Sorry wor, no tartan skirts nor tartan panties nor tartan towel.....hehehehe
Ok, before you all throw out all your breakfast/morning tea/lunch/afternoon tea/dinner, better change subject!
There was also a farm-pet fare going on there, so we went to look see look see......there were pony, rabbit, chicken, llama, lambs.......
This llama didn't even move a bit through out my time there, she was sitting still like a toy.
While we were busy patting the animals and taking photos, something caught my eyes. There was this cute little thing tottering around......
Ooooh~~ MY~ GOD~, the "dalmation piglet" is sooooo cute! She was sniffing and toddling around...aiyo really cute.....
*Piggy was really jealous when he found out that dalmation piglet is cuter than him. Muahahaha*
Later, we proceed to Whitby restaurant in James Cook hotel for a traditional English high tea. The cakes and club sandwiches were heavenly!
So there gone my 2007 birthday, a year younger and a year more wiser. Muahahaha. It was a simple, relaxed yet a memorable one!
*Piggy is still upset about the Dalmatian piglet* :(

Looking back 5 times
I've never digged out my old posts to reminisce my past. I guess 1++ years of being in blogosphere is considered young and what I've written seems relatively fresh in back of my mind. Thanks Chen for giving me such an incentive to wallow through words that I've noted down, looking back 5 times!
*** INSTRUCTIONS: ***
1. Post 5 links to 5 of your previously written posts. The posts have to relate to the 5 key words given below.
2. Tag 5 other friends to do this meme. Try to tag at least 2 new acquaintances (if not, your current blog buddies will do) so that you get to know them each a little bit better.
3. Don’t forget to read the archived post and leave comments.

Link 3 must be about YOURSELF: Old photos (22/03/2006)
I should be tagging 5 others, shouldn't I? Er....can I choose not? Don't feel like following the rule today. Hehehehe

I love YAN YAN
I'm sure most of Malaysians have come across this yummy and lip-smacking YAN YAN in their childhood.
It was my favourite, and still is! Whenever I go to the Asian grocery store, I would look for them and take some home.
When I was in Christchurch couple of months ago, I couldn't help going into Asian store for YAN YAN. It is commonly known that Asian grocery stores in Christchurch have much more varieties and at much cheaper prices as compared to those in Wellington. So, the search began, hoping to get a sight on the usual coco and strawberry ones.
My eyes almost popped out when I saw all these different flavours of YAN YANs on the rack, for the first time! It was not just like "seeing oasis in the desert" but "seeing an BIG oasis full of cokes, 7-ups, ribenas".
I couldn't help but grabbed them ALL!!!
Got Banana & Chocolate lar, Orange lar, Milk lar and even Green Tea! (0_0)!! They probably been around for ages, but me so "suaku" that I had never before seen!
I wonder...if there is anymore flavour out there....*search search search*

The time machine
Mistipurple gave me a time machine to travel back in time. Woo-hoo, can go back in time wor...excited excited! There are so many points in time I want to go back to...can I use the time machine over and over? Then I can go there and here, changing this and that, wah~~~thinking about it already got me high~~~ hehehe
I want to go back to the 18th century of Austria to enjoy Mozart's concert and get his autograph. Then, go further back to 50BC to meet Cleopatra, 600BC to take photos of the the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, 2000+ BC of ancient egypt to see how piramids were built...ok, I am greedy. Have to make the best out of the machine mah.
Now that I think about it, I probably wouldn't survive the ancient epoch anyway, no mobile, no internet, no computer, no movie, no microwave, no washing machine how to live? So boring neh~~~ Emm…..to be practical (and not greedy), I would want to go back to my wedding day, not to make any change but to relive the moment. That way, I can wear my gown and be pretty pretty, having fun with family and friends, then enjoy my honeymoon once again. *start dreaming....*
Eh, talk so much when is the Time Machine arriving?
Since this time machine is so useful, must share share...I wanna tag
Winn - Let her kill two birds lah Ah Boy - also let him kill two birds May - Curious how May is gonna use this time machine. You haven't done it right? ECL - Don't think I tag her before. Hehehe keeyit - hope she hasn't done this one.
