Hey Helen,
So it's your 17th birthday. I just wanted to let you know that you are so important to me. We have known each other since we were little, back in the day when I would go to the little girl's room without going to the little girl's room.. If you know what I mean, jellybean.
You are my best mega tween friend and my lil_ice_champ47. But more importantly, you are my sister in Christ. We've endured Maths and English tutor together, recited our memory verses on Sundays, hung out at crazy Asian parties and have worn matching flower girl dresses at crazy Asian weddings.
You are like a breath of fresh air when the world seems to suffocate me with its worldliness. You are always looking to the brighter side of things and rarely anything gets you down. You never seem to have anything let you down because you won't let it.
You're a no-fuss, stick-to-the-basics kind of girl. You're laid back and down to earth. Your simplicity reminds me of a child. Though you are mature like a 17 year old, you stay optimistic like a 5 year old. You have not been tainted by cynicism with age.
You resemble hope.
It has been a blessing to have been your friend for so long. We've never had a single fight in the past 13 years and it won't seem likely for many more years to come. You are patient and understanding. You make me feel like I'm the most hilarious person in the world. I feel appreciated when you laugh until you can't breathe at the silly things I do.
I thank God that He has brought us together in His name. What better way to bond than to bond over our love for Christ? You have been encouraging me every week at church and still continue to do so. Thank you for that. Thank you for being so..
you.
I hope and pray that you will continue to serve with a humble heart. God bless you, Helen.

First and foremost, I would like to wish
Steenbus a very happy 16th birthday! I wish you all the best with whatever you do, I'll be there to support you every step of the way like you have with me :) Also a big birthday shout out to Hansel aka Green eggs & Hans! Hope you guys had a smashing birthday~!~!~!
Today was a fantastic day despite it being the one to kick start off my examination period. The morning was a complete daze, I was in the library for 2 hours trying to study for Modern History. I love the fact that all the Modern History students gathered together at a table to study and help each other out. I revised so much information, it felt like the info took up all the memory in my head! (It's probably worth 512MB)
To my surprise, my Modern Hist half yearly was only 1/7th of what I studied. It was
so simple! A page of short answers and 2 long response questions. I hope that in saying the test was 'simple' I won't be'
jinxing' my results or something..
So with 1 exam down and 5 to go, Steen and I decided to head off to Tommy's for a
nutritional lunch :) Consequently, 'Britney', Davis and William were there and we had a fab talk about Pokemon, Indian stereotypes, the fact that a 'large' box of Tommy's chips is pretty freaking large, Mariah Carey's latest single, MILFs and 'how to grab a girl's attention at a party'. The conversation lasted longer than expected so we decided to drag it out to the park, ha. (The man at Tommy's was looking very suss.) The 'How To' guide continued as Tony pretended to be a girl and William tried his luck to grab Tony's attention. Lol to the max! On our way back to school (to study) the boys 'serenaded' Steen with "
Side Effects" as a birthday present.
When we arrived at school, Steen, Thuy and I weren't bothered to study French so we sat down and ate what was left of the box of Tommy's. Steen and I decided that today was one of the best (in terms of conversations) and that we should continue for the rest of the week. (As relief from examinations.)
Lesson learnt: boys aren't so foreign after all. Oh, and they dig hot, I mean, pretty mums.
Anyways, I must study now. Wish me luck for the rest of week! I've got English and Biology tomorrow - more about that later ;)
You know you miss me,
xoxo
