Valentine's Day

Valentine's day is kinda big in Tec. On this special day, there were many booths selling balloons, chocolates, flowers, cards, sweets, marshmallows and many many more other gifts. Anyone who wants to send something to their love ones or friends can easily drop a note at the booths, indicating the name, class and time for delivery. Apparently in the past, they even called in mariachis to the class. I asked my flatmate and she said that teachers can't expect to have a proper lesson on Valentine's day cos there's bound to be interruptions.. haha..

The day before Valentine's day, Nyan and me went to Los Generales, a very popular buffet place here. The pork ribs tasted so good, i couldn't stop eating them! Ok.. it's partly because it's kinda hard to get bbq pork ribs here.. haha..

See the green gluey thing on the left? That's guacamole!! We eat it here all the time. I think i'm so gonna miss it when i return to Singapore cos avocado is kinda expensive.

The Mariachis!! Coincidentally, there was a birthday party going on that day as well and they invited to Mariachis to come and play.

Vanessa from NTU! Besides V day, that day was also international students day! Each country had a representative to raise their country's flag and Vanessa was the representative for Singapore!

Flags from all over the world.

Me and the korean girls

Balloons in the air

Booths selling flowers, balloons, chocolates and many other small little gifts.

Balloons!!

Chocolates

Nyan hugging cookie monster! I heard there was elmo too but we didn't get to see it though.. =(

Ok.. read the note carefully. My flatmate Carla send me a bottle of hershey kisses and this note was stuffed inside the bottle. She had a test on that day and she wants us to send her something so that when she stand up to collect it, she can look around for answers. Haha..

This is the famous Tec lamb which i've been secretly wanting. Thanks to Nyan, i own one now. Haha..

Haha.. the real flowers didnt look very nice so i made Nyan buy me a fake sunflower.. hee..


That's all for V day! Next up is probably the safari or some house party i guess.. haha.. Stay tuned!!
