Another 21st Birthday=No $$

Saturday, went to Shirley's house to celebrate her 21st birthday. Edwin fetched most of us from amk mrt and we arrived at around 6.30 pm. There was quite a lot of people in her house by then and we went into her room as Meibin and Ade are inside. Sat there for a while before we went outside to eat. Cutting of the cake was next and something funny happened. When Meibin was taking photo of Shirley and her family members, her hair got too near the candles on the altar and it caught fire for a short moment. Derrick saw a bit of smoke as he was standing next to her and exclaimed loudly "Your hair!!!". Everyone looked at meibin and was stunned by what had happened. Her mother quickly brushed off the burnt hair and brought her to the sink to wash her hair. We all asked her whether she is ok or not and she said she is completely fine. Luckily, only a bit of the hair is burnt and there is no hole or anything obviously different about her hair. However, the smell of the burnt hair is rather strong and quite suffocating. Most of us didn't know that hair is so smelly when it is burnt. Anyway, the smell dissipated after 15 mins. We took a group photo as well.

After eating the cake, most of us took individual photos with Shirley outside her flat. Went back to her room after a short while as it was rather humid outside. We were chatting about everything under the sun from uni life, driving license, ghostly encounters, movies, soccer, etc. Shirley's sister had to use her room for a while and all of us shifted to the smaller living room where we watched Guess, Guess, Guess from 10 pm to 11 pm. We took a last group photo before we left as well.

Edwin and Derrick fetched some gals back home while the rest of us went Yishun to watch Lemony Snicket: A Series of Unfortunate Events. Had supper after the movie and went back home.

Sunday, went out with Weiming to have a movie marathon as there are quite a lot of Oscar nominated shows that we haven't watched yet. We watched Closer and Ray at cineleisure. Still got Million Dollar Baby, Sideways and Team America: World Police left to watch.
