Happy Sweet Sixteen, Jacqueline L.!

i have been your friend for 3 years, 1 month and 14 days, but i feel like i've known you forever! and for the record, i don't think you look like a hamster; never did and never will. you've blossomed so much! boring ol' me can't catch up with you fast enough- all your drama and troubles are like my favourite reality shows, to which i get live updates oftenly. well, i'll always be your personal listener and entertainer and adviser. i'm just a phone call away, remember that!

you can always count on me if you ever need cheering up or reassurance or comforting. thanks for being willing to be my friend, even though sometimes i look back and really wonder. i guess i'm just one really lucky girl to get such a great friend like you. just standing beside you makes me feel pretty and confident, like i can pull anything off. your confidence is amazing, so keep it up! we've placed all the lame jokes behind us and i just know that we can run the race for another two years.

i like talking to you on the phone about anything and everything. i like pulling my ugliest face just to make you laugh. i like knowing your faith in me. i like having the same favourite colour as you. okay, this sounds so gay, but yeah. thank you, jacq, for letting me feel like i'm real and alive, that someone actually cares. thank you for making an impact in my life. <3

well well, i hope that you enjoyed the surprise we planned for you today! i wanted it to be somehow more extravagant, but the 76 pictures was really the limelight. i wanted us to all stand in front of the wall and have a walk down the memory lane. and let you see how you've grown and matured so much. and how you've changed me in so many ways. you know, a gallery of all your memories.

today was fun fun fun!
jacq,
natw,
sze,
julia,
emily,
andrew.
"SURPRISE!"

emily came and she still looks as pretty as ever. we exchanged gossip and belated christmas presents. haha, she was surprised by julia's chic hair.
"so emily, how's your school life? long time no talk already ah."

and miss choi sze wing was damn high high HIGH during the wait for jacq. like, completely bowled over with laughter. she kept hitting me with this fake rose. and her ipod's earpiece hit me on my teeth. all kinds of absolutely stupid things.

anyway, we stuck pictures all over her pretty pink wall. blew balloons, cut out "HAPPY SWEET SIXTEEN" and waited for her royal arrival.

"you can just cut one and six, you know."
"ah DAMN."

"okay, you know we all have a body, mind and..."
"SOUL."
"omg shit. i got the wrong one!"
i freaking thought that it was SPIRIT.

"if i said that you have a hot body, would you hold it against me?"

"okay, erm, a puppy..."
"BARK. BARK. BARK."
"... a grown up puppy."
"DOG. GROWL. WHINE."
"no!"
after several tries,
"BARK."
"yeah!"
"omg emily! we said that so early before already!"
"oh really? hahaha."
"still as slow as ever ah."

julia was the champion of Taboo. but i still say it's beginner's luck. ;D
the necklace she made jacq was so so pretty!!

so there aren't any pictures, but this night have been pretty memorable for many of us.
I LOVE YOU, J.
