Happy birthday Jinyu!

&*^% did a reallie nice one and then i stupidly went to close the window thinking that it was one of the pictures i had amended so didnt save the changes.. arrghh! so im so sorry jinyu dear.. tt ur birthday collage isn't my very best..

anyways! Happy birthday to Jinyu!

words can't express my love for this extremely lovable boy but im gonna attempt to do it here..

He's one of the best friends i have ever had the privilege of having. I love how he can make a funny remark with a serious and sincere face.. and it just comes out of the blue! his jokes are those kind tt when you first hear them you laugh HA HA HA! then after a while u realise tt "WAAAAItt a minute! he's insulting me!". stupid boy.. another thing i love about jinyu is how i can be myself and say what i like in front of him without him taking offense or shrinkin away.. like i can look at him and declare my never ending love for him and he will just nod his head and continue doin whatever.. or i can insult his nails and he will just give a disbelieivng look and say "so nice lor!" or he will respond back int his funny ass ways.

and his actions! are so friggin cute! like when i accused him of being mean when he cricised cheeyen's shirt, he gave the shocked hand gesture and protested "but dun you tink so?" no apologies! hahahahahah! this guy just cracks me up everytime i meet him la.. and who can forget the tea incident? i insulted his tea, saying it was like leaves picked up from the street and he went to find the box tt says tt it is good quality tea. and when i told cheeyen over MSN, u can see jinyu's look of utter indigantion and him rumaging for the box to show her! but tt stupid mama boy go tell his MOTHER! now i dun need stay in his hse next year la.. his mother sure throw me out.

and he's always there (in pgp) as a friend.. just the thot of him uplifts my sprits! there was one incident where i asked him out to cheer me up since i was super depressed. guess what jinyu's method of consoling people is? he told me about how world war 3 is gonna happen. with much glee. and when i told him he was supposed to cheer me up he told me that since the world is ending, i do not need to worry about my problems. idiot.

and i love bitchin to jinyu! i can nickname his friend "anal dude" and he just laughs it off.. or when i bitch.. he will either stiffen, trying not to laugh, or respond..then, there are times where i will just run over to his room to chase him off his bed just so tt i can catch a quick nap (my mother is against afternoon naps).. and he doesn't mind.. i tink! well the boy was singing while playing computer (yes i cud hear his voice in my sleep!!)so im guessing not?

jinyu is also one of the few which u can discuss anything under the sun with.. i love thrashin my views about politics with him.. unlike others, he can listen to my views on china (his country) without freaking out and then give me food for thought.


here are a few memorable jinyu incidents:

1) in NYC, i was totally broke and cheeyen informed me that i needed an extra US$100 to get home so i asked jinyu whether he could set aside US$100 for me in case.. now even though that meant him restraining from buying stuff, he readily agreed.

2) Cheeyen and i were uber broke in NYC while Jinyu had a reasonable amount.. but the boy still walked and even helped navigate us ard NYC. we walked all over NYC for 5 days without takin any public transport.. try to beat that! and when cheeyen and i could only do with one baked potato and water for meals, jinyu joined us instead of flaunting his wealth.. plus he wud buy stuff and ask us to eat.. isnt he so sweet!

3)there was an incident where i got jinyu into a lot of trouble with his friends.. and he still could sms me messages asking me whether i was okay!

4)in houston, i kept putting the thrash outside the house, thinking that a hired person wud collect the thrash. when hanwei told me that it was jinyu who was taking the trash to the collection point everyday..i told jinyu and he said "SO YOU ARE THE ONE putting the thrash bag outside the house!"

5)jinyu and hanwei cooked for like 5 people and the other 2 didnt return home for dinner so we were betting in order to finish the food off!

6) once, when a bunch of us made our way down to san antonio.. we stuffed a pillow in between the seats to make space for one more.. i sat on it and in the end happily slided in between ian (the driver) and jinyu (front seat)... there was a dude next to me who just slept the whole way.. but when it was jinyu's turn to sit behind wiht us. he immediately got onto the cushion and sternly told me to sit in a more comfortable seat!

7) we used to rent videos frm blockbuster in america and jinyu chose "castle in the sky".. one night, he slot it in and we started watchin.. soon.. everyone got up to go sleep.. leavin only jinyu and me.. since my back was facing him, i thot "aiyah jinyu so poor thing.. watch alone.. better watch with him la.. " even though i wanted to sleep and the girl was being darn irritating in the show.. when the movie finally ended i turned ard to see.. jinyu sleepin. with his mouth open. i nearly stuffed the video down his mouth i tell you! and he later told me tt he had already watched "castle in the sky" 3 times! arrgh!

8) in houston, ian would be the first to wake up and then jinyu.. both of them will prepare breakfast while i grabbed a few more precious minutes of snooze till jinyu stands at the end, cocks his head and says "adeline.. we are gonna be late". poor boy.. we always arrived a teeny weeny bit late.. and jinyu never did scold me for causing it. and funny thing was tt the three of us went to our restaurants at the same time and he was the only who got all his late notices frm the office..during the week tt he was "employee of the week" he was late twice!

in short, jinyu is generous, kind, patient, open minded, super funny (intentional or unintentional), a good navigator (he won my dad over with this point), a great conversationalist, an awesome friend, entertaining company, smart (imported from china since the age of 15), tactful and a wonderful source of information on the world!
i
love jinyu to bits!

happy birthday dear boy. see la.. never stay in the womb longer or i can throw big party for you!

im reallie reallie grateful tt he "jin" "yu" (his name stands for "enter universe" which i have a lot to say about.. but he hates it when i talk about tt so better not on his birthday!) and i got to know him.. and despite all my bullying and teasing and troubles, he is still willing to hang out with me..

I is jinyu NUMBER ONE fan!

go jinyu!

absolutely everybody loves jinyu.
