rounds of birthday celebrations

"we gon' party like it's yo birthday" - 50 cent (in da club)

lately the 'in' thing seems to be celebrating your birthday a few times over.

my friend and my cell group 'sister' share the same birthday. and since they are both part of different circles in my life, celebrations had to be done separately. which made for me to be a rather busy girl...

and of 'coz knowing me, i'll be tinkering around taking strange pics of lights... so here were some of the pics...

the easter weekend

"come please i'm callin', and oh i scream for you, hurry i'm fallin' " - nickelback (savin' me)

i had a great easter weekend.

good friday was spent in church with friends and then hanging out later.

we were just eating and having a cuppa...

and then we proceeded to another place to eat again...

eating these is an art... strange food anyone?

let's just say that i ate a lot...

but it was also a lot of fun...

needles and pain

"let me stick my needles in, and let me hurt you again" - seether (needles)

my company gave us all a free flu vaccination today.

what a choice time since i'm in the midst of recovering from the flu and just bout sick of being sick. i say it's the air here. that and the food. which is perpetually spicy.

anyhow it's funny to see how different people reacted to needles.

there were some who were cool as a cucumber. needles and pain? that's just a walk in the park. there were some who were jittery and chatting excitedly but ultimately decided that it really wasn't that painful anyway (ahem that would be yours truly). and then there were others who decided to pass on a free flu vaccination 'coz they couldn't bear the thought of a needle piercing through their flesh. ouch!

shockingly, it seemed like it was some selected men who fell in the third category. thus proving that women probably have a higher threshold of pain. then again we are the ones who go through pregnancy and childbirth which certainly is no walk in the park. i haven't experienced that yet so what do i know. but it must mean something if every other woman can go through it and still wanna go through it few more times. but ask some men to take a flu shot? nah that's just too much needles and pain.
