My (Extended) Birthday!

Being in New York has a few perks, and that includes having an extended birthday !
It begins 12am Sg time and ends 12 am 19 Jan NY time!

To all those who wished me happy birthday,
Thank you SO MUCH!
I appreciate it so much more than you know.




Well, so , the first thing that I did for my birthday was to have dinner with Yihan and Sheena at a place called 'Republic', serving, erm, Asian food. HEH!


I miss Singaporean food!!!!!


Yihan and Sheena looking happy with their alcohol. Poor Sheena! Had a big head after that one drink! heh.


So, at night, I was pleasently surprised by a sing-song birthday cake thing which Shufen arranged.
Thanks so much Shufen!
She bought a cake and got all the exchange students to sing me a birthday song at 12 am NY time - it was touching and a great way to start well, the new birthday year! hehe.

Ok, I shall introduce my new friends to you.
Left to right:
Dave Tester, Shufen Toh, Hanyu, Cho-eun, Stephanie Khoo, Ben and Pascal.

Are you wondering why so few pictures????
BECAUSE!
BECAUSE!
BECAUSE!
All the rest were candid shots and I can only be taken from one angle.
Hence, hence.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art is an art museum located on the eastern edge of Central Park, along what is known as Museum Mile in New York City, USA. It has a permanent collection containing more than two million works of art, divided into nineteen curatorial departments.^[3] The main building, often referred to simply as "the Met," is one of the world's largest art galleries, and has a much smaller second location in Upper Manhattan, at "The Cloisters," which features medieval art.

By the way, if you guys still use the map on the right, Central park is at the top right, u can drag the map to see the whole of central park. !

I think the Smart car is damn cute. quite a few here.

MASTER CHEF YI WITH HER LIGHTNING CHOPSTICKS



Well, the funny thing about that dinner was that, Yi, being the nice, kind, thoughtful wonderful host that she is, decided to let me try
Cow's Tongue!
Apparently she tried it when she was little and absolutely loved it.


Well, I didnt exactly enjoy it, so she ended up eating a whole cow's tongue by herself!
