Memorable Birthday 7th Sept 2007











i wanted to visit central park








the most beautiful park i have been to








i love the view of the lake with the skyscrapers in the background








it's amazing how alluring this park is. even just lying down on a mat or reading a book can make one feel so good.








we had a mini-picnic








and this is one of my closer friends here. she is the first person i know from stern orientation - maria from mexico








these two friends from spain - cristina and noelia








another of my closer friends cum housemate - kate from slovakia. Ok, i'm going to remember what kate said to me cos it's the sweetest thing i've ever heard from a girlfriend - that i have the sweetest smile she has ever seen from anyone in her life and "when esther smiles, everything's perfect".. wow ... =)








check out the ducks swimming over to shore








and me feeding them with bread











central park is huge and i can't wait to go back to catch it in fall. If I have more time, i'll set up facebook to upload all the photos.











AND when we went back dorm to wash up, they surprised ME with a birthday cake!










i didn't expect it at all since i thought we would just have an outing at central park








pics abit blur, cos i tink i didn't set my camera properly plus the person who took it not very skillful too, lol








i was really touched by these people whom i've only known for 2 weeks








it was an oreo ice-cream cake...yummy! and credit goes to jeremiah and alex who bought it








i had some other gifts and cards. later we went out for some drinks and to experience the nightlife in nyc. i didn't expect so much fun but it was really a great birthday for me.
