Ching's 20th

We were supposed to go somewhere for the holidays - Great Ocean Road, Gold Coast, Tasmania,Phillip Island - they were all on the list. However, for one reason or another all of them fell through. For Tasmania, we were going to be there on Ching Ching's birthday, and so I thought we could celebrate it there. When that plan failed, I thought of a surprise, but before I could plan anything, Chingster asked me to plan a lunch for her.

So I did. She even told me what to get her : an Ipod Classic :) So we did :)

Since she had never been to Sofia's, that's the venue that I chose. So we all met up at Melbourne Central and trained down to Camberwell on the 30th of September. "We" consisted of me, Yi Ping, Wei Xiong, Shing Yun, Tse Han, Ching Ching, Wen Ting, See Weng and Fiona.






The food was awesome as usual :) We ordered a few mains and shared, and we couldn't finish everything! Wen Ting and I packed at least 4 tuppawares full of pasta back home at the end of the day.










Wei Xiong stole my camera for a bit, and so he's responsible for the...interesting...pictures below!









And then came the candles :) the gift, and the card...and the...crown? :S














After a nearly 2.5 hour lunch, we decided to go shopping at Chapel Street. Wei Xiong had other plans (mr popular as usual :P), and Yi Ping wasn't feeling that well so they both went back, but not before we harrased some passerbys to take some group shots!




We actually didn't really know the way, and so gave up halfway there, but then at one point, we looked out of the tram and realised we were just a stop away!






After some buying on my part, I was feeling thirsty, and so decided to belanja tea at this really nice looking restaurant called Tea House or something like that. I basically just wanted an excuse to see how nice it was inside :P But the egg tarts were the best ever!








We went for more shopping after that, and then I had to rush back to the city for an Urbanlife meeting, and so we parted ways - the rest went for dinner somewhere else. I love Chapel Street! Next sem I wanna go to the Jam Factory - it's the only place they have TGIF here :(



Hope you enjoyed yourself Ching :)
