Goats, fishes, 96 balloons & 4 cheesecakes

So, everyone expressed surprise, shock or disbelief when i told them i was going to the goat's farm. Whats wrong with it? I wanted to be a tourist in the less-explored parts of Singapore, i guess most people simply think i'm crazy or something like that. Nevertheless, it was fun! I didnt take pictures though, i was afraid that the goats will eat my camera, since they tried to chew on Az's pants & my shirt. Haha. Goats are adorable! The kids will literally "meh-meh" all day long, the young males will get all rough, fighting with each other & the old ones just lie there to munch on hay or sleep. Haha. We took pleasure in teasing the goats whether with hay, or just disturb them if they were trying to sleep. Goats are cute, until you see them shit. Urghhh. FYI, goat's milk is YUMMY. I'm not even a fan of milk, but goat's milk is sweeter & it tastes like vanilla. Haha. Some trivia we learnt- goats have 2 teats unlike cows. Here's another one- why do goats wear bells? Because their horns arent working. Hahaha. I know, i know.
After that, we took the bus back to Lot1. The weather was blood-suckingly HOT. The sun was blazing, and the air was damp & still. It was unbearable. Az wanted to remain in the aircon comfort. I had to use all my charms to make him go to QianHu with me. Haha. We found a 100bucks prized shrimp which was almost too small to be seen. Haha. As well as Arowanas which cost thousands, exotic looking stingrays, eels, sucker fishes, lobsters, prawns, crayfishes, all sorts of things living in water. Pretty mind-boggling experience i would say.

We had fun scaring fishes.
They look dumb, dont they?

These people had painstakingly planned me a surprise birthday party which really surprised me despite the run-in with Felix over the phone. Hahaha. They all leapt out of my room's bathroom with my birthday cake & then started to bitch about how long i took to have my dinner downstairs. Hahaha. It wasnt my fault, i thought they had already gone home! You guys surprised me alright. Honest! & I was genuinely moved by all the effort which went into this. 96 balloons in my room. Half of them which are still flooding my room, with random ones bursting suddenly. The rubbery decorations on my window. The red & gold necklace. The delicate wooden frame with sweet bday messages on the back. The supersoaker & bombs which were flung on me(though i'm not afraid of them. Haha.) I appreciate everything! You guys are the sweetesttttt. I'm still feeling warm & fuzzy on the inside. Haha. :)

I love my R85.
My guardian angels in SMU. Haha.

Before that, I actually spent about 9 hours with my socialscience peeps on Saturday. After our CIP meeting, we went to have tea at BK & then amused ourselves in various bookstores and pharmacies. Young joined us before we went for dinner at Gluttons' Bay. It was a good choice because it coincided with the NDP preview & we got treated to spectacular firework displays. So after much dinnertime talk, we went in search of a drink & ended up at Changing Appetites in MarinaSquare for their classic icecream waffle. 50% off! woohoo. haha.

After being nagged by many people who called me from union square, i had to drag my ass down, although i was really tired & all i wanted was to go home & sleep. I morphed into a grouchy bitch by the time i walked through Union Square's entrance. I was quite pissed off as i didnt want to come & i had to pay 15 bucks for entry. So my friends had prepared a cake for me to blow out the candles blah blah. It was really sweet of them, but i was too mad to appreciate it. I was like ahhh, i hate sponge cake. Hahaha. Thank you guys for putting up with my childish tantrums just before i turn twenteen. Haha.

Thanks for the cake!
(even if its sponge cake. I ate it remember? Haha.)
Thank you for remembering my birthday!
& attempting to celebrate it with me while i was being a total monster.
People who can tolerate that are a rarity.
I love you guys tooooooo.
