Tonight We are young So let's set the world on fire We can burn brighter than the sun
Happy 21st 18th Birthday to Moiii! :')
I've always wonder how my 21st birthday would be like. Due to unnecessary MTV programmes like My Super 21, telling us how it should be like. I had a rather vain, unrealistic birthday party idea in mind.
Of course, my 21st birthday was nothing like that. My parents didn’t get me a convertible pink Volkswagen they ought to give. My Birthday wasn’t held in a massive club. I didn’t have any alcohol drinks in my party. One direction didn’t perform at my birthday either.
Mine was just simple. My birthday was just held at Downtown East Chalet, shared among hundreds of others who’re celebrating their birthday too. It was just a small space enough for just a number of people.

Yet, I had the best time of my life. It was better than my 18th birthday because I was actually enjoying myself. During those 3 days of stay at the chalet with my cousins & family, I had a lovely time. The feeling of watching everyone of your family member helping you to prepare so much for your birthday is just moving. It touches my heart. To watch my Aunties & Mummy not sleeping just to prepare the food.. To watch my Uncle wrapping the gifts for the game prize.. To watch my Sister,Dad & Cousins busy setting up the whole place.. My cousin Deana, who kept wiping off my sweat, making sure my hair is in place at all time during the party..Everyone’s just busy making sure my birthday was special. It brought tears to my eyes. It is sad that only now I know how truly blessed I am to have such loving family. Thank you to every one of you, I love you guys. Family Forever :’) 
The theme, in case you haven’t notice from all the pictures, is actually Wild Safari. Anything that screams Animals or Animal Prints. Everyone knows Im sucha themed girl. [P.S im a pink Flamingo] But because of the location, I had to tone down with the theme. Something very casual yet sleek. The celebration starts at 5.30.
I was already getting dressed, doing my hair and makeup. Its so hard to prepare because we [all the girls] are fighting for the mirror..Plus its burning hot. I was so screwed because I didn’t bring some essential beauty needs. Lol. When I was done, I stepped out of the room. And as soon as I did that, the music stop blasting loud crazy song and started playing “Forever Young” .
I swore that moment was so surreal. Deana rushed to take my picture and so did my mum and aunties. I felt like crying because the music just suits whatever it is that Im feeling that particular moment. My mum actually came to me and said “wow, that moment was beautiful”. I know she’s right. That moment is the moment I’ll always remember, the day I became an adult. That moment I just grew from a teenager to somewhat a more mature adult [notice I said the word “somewhat MORE mature] ^^

Cheers to the birthday girl! hehehe! Oh i Love my nails!! Its in OPI Love Ocean Potion.
Zul and Tiara was the first few who came early. And before you knew it people start pouring in. I have to admit, I was slightly disappointed that some of my close friends wasn’t there. Oh well, I can live with that. Hah.
Tiara & I. The only Cousin besides my Dad's side Im close with. hehe ^^ We have the same soft curls hair.

Deana, my baby cousin whom annoys the shit outta me but i love her so much! love her like crazy. She's the photographer for my bday!
I've always dont really enjoy the cutting cake ceremony because i just think its a little embarassing! haha! Its like I feel soooo AWKWARD standing in the middle, no idea what to do.. just smiling with the cake knife in my hands while everyone else is singing the birthday song LOUDLY. its soooo amusing! haha!! Nevertheless, it is one of the moment where you feel like a star. The spotlight is on you and you feel all warm and fuzzy inside knowing you're a year older. Its like a swirl of mixed emotions going through your mind.

After the cake cutting ceremony, we finally played the party games! Its the part of the birthday celebration I actually look foward the most! Because we prepared so many games and prizes to be won! Silly games like The Macho Game [where all the guys have to squeeze a lemon into a bowl as hard and as fast as they can. Then, they have to drink the lemon juice quicly YET maintain a Sexy Smile!] IT WAS HILARIOUS!!
The other game is The PantyHose Game [where everyone has to find a partner. One is to be blindfolded while the other give instructions. The blind person has to blow 2 balloons, put it in a pantyhose & then wear it on their partner's head! IT WAS SO FUNNY I ALMOST DIED!!!!
The winners for the pantyhose challenge! omg ! I seriously pity Tiara for having Ahmad as her partner! Look what he did to her!! So violent!! Until the whole face! HAHAHHA!!! CUTE SIA!! omg
The other games are just the normal musical mat, passing games and etc.

& then the prize giving ceremonyyyy.. hell yeah that was so much fun. It practically drained out everyone's energy

There are sooo many pictures but I really dont have time to upload everything. My aplogy. This birthday would not have been possible without the Queen Of My Heart. Thank you Mummy for everything. I'm everything I am because of you. 
This birthday party was held on 28th of April the day before my actual brithday.
The next day, 29th April, My 21st birthday itself. Ahmad threw me an amazing birthday celebration at Amara Sanctuary Resort. It was a blast!!!!!!
Me, Ahmad, Tiara,Ira & Alep went to check in first before my friends come. We bought some pizzas, drinks. The place was ROCKIN AWESOME!!!! Everyone was practically screaming when we enter the suite. We thought it was just a normal suite but this one has an outdoor garden with a freaking Jacuzzi!! WOOHOO! pool parrrttyyy everybodyyy!!


The balloons were total fail! Kept on burstinggggggg!! cause there were too many plants and sharp edges around there
Rasul, Nadia, Narysal,Laura,Wawan & Ayda didnt bring extra clothes! what a shame!! we were having so mucu fun playing games and stuff in there. Most of the time there were were soaking the jacuzzi, playing silly games, small talks, jokes.. and stuff like that.


Ahmad was sooo sweet!!! He did not only throw me a birthday celebration here but almost bought me a.... PINK POLAROID CAMERA!!! the thing ive been wanting since foreverrrrrrrr! OMG! THANK YOU AHMAD!! I started snapping immediately! haha

I dont really enjoy eating cakes, besides ice cream cake but this chocolate cake was DELICIOUS! it has no sponge cake at all! It is entirely chocolateee! YUMMY!! so here goes another amusing moment of cake cutting ceremony! HAHAHA!!! I tried so hard to divert the attention to ahmad though :s
So yes, I did divert the attention to him, cause Ahmad deserves it. Every inch of it. He was the one who made this party happened. I made a toast to him where all of us did the 'yammmmmseennnnggggg" at the end so loudly! it was just too funny. But really Ahmad Darling, thanks. 
Ahmad Awkward Moment Much? HAHAHHA :P




I never thought Ahmad as the sweetest bf in the world.. or I don’t go bragging about what a perfect couple we are. Because I know for a fact that we fight a lot. We argue everyday. But both of us know its better to be together and fight everyday then not to be together at all. But on my birthday, he really made me feel like a Princess, the only one he loves and set eyes for. He made me feel oh so special like never before. 
As I was eating my cake, he sat down beside me and retrieved a light blue box with the signature white ribbon. My eyes was like popping already! Tiffany & Co.. really? Omg what a sweethearttttt. I open to find a beautiful necklace inside. The trademark Tiffany & Co pendent was proudly shining & went I turned it around, I saw Iqah 21st engraved on it. At that moment, I swear I felt like crying because I cant believe he gave me so much for my birthday. The hotel, The Polaroid Camera and now the necklace. Just as I was about to contain my emotions, he handed me ANOTHER blue box. I was puzzled. He just smile and nodded his head. I open up to find a beautiful Tiffany & Co ring. It was really awkward for him to put it on for me because its like as though we’re getting engage. HEHE! I remember seriously trying to hold back my tears.
yeah i had to edit this to this colour cause my face is all wet and make up is sooo disastrous. I was already tearing up. lol 
My sister and Tiara already noticed my red face so they quickly snap pictures! Haha! What a scene. I was about to stand when he handed me a big box. I was like Omg Ahmad, are you serious!! Haha. And then I opened it up to find a lovely pair of pink Pedro Floral heels. Its was preetttyyyy. I tried it on and pulled him to the garden outside , away from everyone else.
[yes. ignore my face. i my nose everything hs reddened already[
I could no longer hold back my tears. Fresh happy tears sprung out from my eyes as I thank him for such a wonderful birthday. It was so magical because we started dancing slowly under the stars and then coincidently, the song “can I have this dance” played in the background [everyone was watching High School Musical 3 inside LOL]. What a romantic moment. HEHEHEHE!!!
The others left around 10.30 and some of us stayed over the night. The bed was so huge enough for like all of us who slept over. Woke up in the morning, and went straight to the pool. Everyone else left for school by then. So its just Ahmad & I..we’re like enjoying the last 3 hours of our stay! Definitely a great one!
i REALLY LOVE the dream pool. its so awesomeeeee. So relaxing. The sky pool is rather crowded.

Nostalgic much? Well it is for me. I used to be work at this very spot where Ahmad is sitting down. Managing the mini bar, ensuring the guest is entertained. Well, that was during my poly attachment days. lol. I didnt know that the hotel i used to work for was this fun! it sure wasnt fun at all at the back office :s
To end this post with my brownie bday cake. Hahah! I am so amused how every year my name is spelt wrongly! HAHAH. oh man. Maybe everyone forgets my real name since they are so used calling me Iqah. The name is Nurshafiqah ok. IqahVamp is legendary. HAAHHA!

I no doubt had the most wonderful birthday thanks to my love ones. Im so blessed. To each and everyone who help in making my day special, I LOVE YOU. But above all, Thank you Allah.
