Thankful

First of all, a huge thanks to everyone who came to my place yesterday. It was awesome. The company of great friends are just amazing. I hope you guys enjoyed it as much as I did.

Secondly, I couldn't have done it with the help from my family. They've been so supporting in organising last night. Thank you Daddy, Mummy and my dearest little sister. I also have to thank my dear Henry for helping me out and supporting me through the night. =)

I'm sincerely happy and thankful for all the notes that you guys left me on the little sheets of paper. They'll be carefully placed in my 21st album to be kept and cherished. The cards are great. The gifts are amazing.

Thank you my dear Henry for the pretty pretty watch and crispy tasty walnut cookies and the beautiful rose. Thank you for making my day. Thank you for being there. Am truly happy to be able to share the moments with you.

Thank you Catherine and XinYi for the speech. Thank you for being there to support me through out all these years. You guys have been great.

Thanks Sheena for the quote.

Thanks Stanley for the "Book of Quotations". I'll learn from them.

Thanks Ying Swan, Pei Lyn, Lisa, and Su Ping for the amazing cookie recipe book. I'll have a great time learning 500 varieties of cookies.

Thanks Alex, Eugene, Hsen Han and Wei Lun for the Survival Calender. (I've not opened it up yet, but I'll learn from them next year.

Thanks Sheena, Matt and Evan for the cute earrings. I was really dazzled when I opened it. Though I'm still not quite sure if they're capacitors or transformers or L.E.Ds but they're cool. I love them.

Thanks Chris, Jun Bin, Thuan Chen, SJ, Boon and everyone else for the Super Mario Mushroom, NZ edition Monopoly, brooch, necklace, and everything. Every little thoughts counts and I am truly thankful for everything. Thanks for singing the song too. Great memories.

Had two hours of sleep early this morning after the whole night of interesting conversations with the few who stayed over. Woke up and got ready for a whole new day with a whole new experience. Went sea kayaking out in Mission Bay. It was so much fun. It's the first time I did this kind of thing, and it was really scary considering I can't swim, but I jsut kept telling myself to paddle left right constantly.

Sea was calm in the morning, but got so rough and windy after lunch. I had to paddle so much harder that I think my body is going to ache so badly tomorrow. I hope I didn't get any more sun burn. Been putting a lot of lotion.

After a while, I kinda got the hang of paddling and steering the kayak. Luckily I wasn't on my own. Had the double kayak with Henry sitting behind controlling the pedals and the rudder to steer the kayak. At one point, it was a little terrifying to have the waves crashing on us so hard and getting us all wet. But all is good. Nearing the end of the session, relaxing on the kayak near to the shores were just great. Colliding with two fishing boats was hilarious. All in all, it's been a good tiring day.

I should go sleep soon. Another week of work coming up.

Have a good night people and another great start to the week.
