21st Birthday Celebration Part 3




This was a finale celebration of my birthday at L'olivier located at Telok Ayer Street.



They were having this 1 for 1 Dinner promotion for UOB cardholders so we thought this will the apt place for us to dine at, for its fine dining and we get to dine cheap as well. Overall, we paid $30 bucks each for a 3-course dinner. Considering the quality of the food, I think its a steal to dine there with a mere $30 bucks!


Definitely recommended for UOB cardholders. It's a little deserted over there so you might have some difficulty finding the place but rest assured it's definitely worth it!


So as usual, it was a great catch-up session with me, David, Zhi Qi and Wei Kuan. Soon, we were joined by Jaryl and Dominic and finally Samuel.


I learn a lot of things. Firstly, that David had a lot of drama in China where he went to extend of flying back alone for he did not feel obligated to stay there anymore for the employers of his have breached the contract bounding him.


Jaryl is finally ending his teacher endeavour.


Dominic is still working at Surfgold, shining as usual.


Zhi Qi and Wei Kuan working at Singapore Sports Council whereby they are still the indispensable for their competency is out of this world.


As for Samuel, he was apparently offered an opportunity to star in a commercial on the newspaper for New York Skin solutions whereby he will be offered $3000+ worth of vouchers if he gave his imprimature.


As you can see from the above, it was a major catch-up session.



As usual, there was a surprise birthday song coming from the background as I was happily sipping on my water. I seriously had no idea once again that there was actually a cake for me and Dominic as both our birthdays fall in May.


I was the first one to meet them and I don't see anyone holding on to any cake. How did they manage to act all surreptitiously without the detection by my acute senses.


Very impressive I must say, great concealment right till the end.






I'm really thankful for all the effort.



Samuel had a hard time preparing everything whereby he had to pay for the presents, the cakes and the dinner. I really appreciate it Samuel !


Wei Kuan was consistently following up on the ongoing planning of the celebration right from the start in April. He was busying making sure that everything will be in place. Thank you as well!


David was the one who decided on the awesome dining place, we can always count on him to do all these bookings.


Zhi Qi was the one who make us vote firmly on the things we want for the celebration. Without his firmness, our indecisiveness will get us nowhere.


Jaryl was the one who made the cards for me and Dominic, definitely very nice of him the cards were awesome by the way and seen below.





Dominic celebrated his birthday with me, which was a great pleasure. He constantly entertained us with his quirky actions at the dinner.


After the celebration at L'olivier, we moved on to the Double Helix Bridge. To be honest, it's nothing fantastic I must say. The architecture was typical of a DNA but it didn't really impress me. Nonetheless, it was a great hangout there for we were entertaining ourselves as usual along the way there.






Next we headed towards the Integrated Resorts, to enjoy the tinge of the highlife. Haha, no we did not enter the casinos. We merely linger along the area. It's really impressive, all the architecture and shops. The renowned brands are all these and the best part is that they are still under renovations. Wait till they are all set up, it will be a blast for sure. A total showstopper, the new attractions of Singapore.


To be honest, Singapore is really becoming a super competitive place. Once known as a harmless red dot, now we are intrepid, we are fighting on the same level as the superpowers in the world and we actually stand a chance of overthrowing them.


Outstanding!


Before I forget, I was given the present as shown below.

Armani Exchange is one of my favourite brand. Thank you guys for giving me the apposite gift for my birthday. Perfect !



Haha, that's all for my 21st. I must say that I'm truly grateful. It made me realise that I have awesome friends surrouding me all these time.


My 21 years of living is splendid because of each and everyone of you out there. I will not give you guys up for anything in the world, really.


It is something that is so close to my heart, just next to my family.


Even though the Army bond was a short 2 years, it is very fortunate of me to have met you guys in there. Our friendships will stick around for the next few centuries.


It will be ever-lasting !!!!!!!!!


Thank you all for the presents and surprises and the arduous preparations. You guys are the best in the world!
