Bella's 21st Party | Capella Sentosa

I finally turn Twenty-one !!! 

Thank you Capella , Singapore for the complimentary villa stay which was partly the reason why I was able to decide on celebrating my birthday last minute with no issues on the venue . Although it was the same room as my 20th Birthday ( see post - here ) , I will never get enough of staying with this hopelessly beautiful hotel. 





Thank you the " girlfriends I stole from Bryan to become mine " for coming despite your busy schedules of school/exam . Especially Huiting , because her birthday is days apart from mine yet she spent the Saturday with me instead of celebrating her own birthday ! I got the clique to come early and surprised her with her own set of Rilakkuma salted caramel cupcakes . I'm not overly obsessed with the bear , she is a big fan of Rilakkuma too ! 







Dessert table - Was my dream if I wanted a birthday party , was tough to solely prepare within 2 short weeks with all nothing but imaginations in my head . BUT I DID IT ! And I was very pleased with the end result because frankly , all I did was imagine of how it'll look like with no assurance till the very last minute of setting up . I was the fussiest of all mankind because of the high expectations on myself , from picking out my favorite desserts  and sweet treats to displaying them was such a chore .

Heartfelt Thank you notes ♥
  •    The sweetheart boyfriend for driving me around to collect all the food 
  • The grandmother for allowing me to stuff up her entire two fridges leaving her with no space at all 
  • Maymay for making the effort to do me bottles of my favorite cornflake crunchies  
  • Ellen for going on countless of shopping trips with me 
  • Everybody who went around Singapore / JB with me just to find the Rilakkuma/Kiiroitori sandwich cutter , but to no avail until my hero Boyfriend managed to find it through on online shop . 

Marshmallow pops x Cornflake Crunchies x Tiramisu Cuppies x Chocolate Eclairs x Custard puffs x Sandwiches x Canapes x Assorted brownies x Cupcakes x Capella's complimentary Birthday cake x 

It was such a spread , my dinner buffet was pretty much neglected by everyone.







Most important for a birthday party - The birthday cake

Big thank you to my baker who was constantly being very patient and meticulous on what I suggested for my cake . I sketched out a draft of how I wanted my cake to look like and she made my sketch into a cake , pastel colored ! 










There was so much gratitude that cannot be strung into words when I knew the days that Laura would be back was coincidentally on my birthday weekend . I'm definitely very blessed and being plain lucky is just an understatement . But happiness can be short lived because as I'm typing this , Laura is having a smashing time in Europe for holiday and I'm so envious ! Have a memorable trip , Laura ! x





Also , thank you all my favorite people that stayed till 6 in the morning , especially my bestfriends Qi & Min who accompanied me through my smashing night . I had alot of fun spending the night watching Paranormal Activity 3 together , fooling around , boozing , and more boozing till someone got knocked out again . I had a great jolly Rilakkuma night with everyone !

PS. // Currently really tied up with too many things on hand , which explains the long hiatus in my online space here . I hope I would have adequate time to juggle between my personal plannings , work time & blogging time ! 

love,
Sheryl
