I had a memorable countdown yesterday, with Pitrra, Chin Seng and Pei Wen! (Thanks to Pitrra and Chin Seng for dropping by my house. It was a surprise! Haha)

And special thanks to my dear Pitrra for giving me bubble and chewing gums. (I miss them because I don't dare to "smuggle" them into SG anymore after making a joke out of myself at the custom immigration.)

Anyway, here are some of the pictures that we took yesterday.

Chin Seng helping us to purchase lolli ice-creams. =D

Look at the lightings! =D These are hardly seen at Boon Lay, except for large occasions, such as the countdown party!

And a picture of Pitrra and me... enjoying our SARSI-flavored Lolli ice-cream? (I think I seriously need a hair cut soon. I don't really admire myself with the "split fringe".)

And one of the guests, Joanne Peh a.k.a Bai Wei Xiu! OMG! I really did not know that she can sing SO well! She sang two songs, and she got teary-eyed when she sang the second one. Speaking of emotions. Ah.

And one of the hosts, Mark Lee.

(Sorry that I had to take their pictures from the big screen because I can't really see them from the crowd.)

Wee~ Last year's countdown (I mean 2008) was not a lonely one for me! Do come again in more years to come! Haha.

I will be sending both of you the videos and pictures via e-mail as uploading them onto my blog is time-constraining due to the large size.

And thanks Pei Wen for coming... Although we only met up for a short while, but I am glad you were able to see the fireworks in action. I'm sorry for not accompanying you for a longer time as I had to purchase something from the Pasar Malam before they closed.

Nonetheless, hope you enjoyed yourself! Thanks to everyone who sent me New Year greetings. I had actually sent out a lot of greetings too, but the SMS service was jammed up yesterday, and they got into my outbox instead. =_= (I only found that out in my outbox this morning.)

P/S: So much for the first day of 2009. Since my trip to Taiwan early this Feb, I have not been falling sick. AND I FELL SICK ON 01/01/09! Sore throat, flu... and stomach troubles. Goshh! AHH!
