All about birthdays~
Been some time since I blogged =p Ironically, the more things I have to blog about, the harder it is to find time to blog..hence the procastination hehe. So, yea.. now it seems trivial to talk about my birthday week... but ah well~
Birthday was spent like a normal work day and upon reflecting I realise that birthdays really seem increasingly less special to myself as I get older, as in it feels almost like any other day. But still simple gestures like specially going out to old woodlands for a simple meal, long distance greetings from the US, card specially delivered to me, all the well wishes as well as be-earlied and belated celebrations really go straight to my heart. Thanks everyone! =D
Speaking of birthdays, I can't help but mention the Prima Deli poisoned cake incident as my family could have been victims to it because we bought a Prima Deli cake for my birthday! Very fortunately, no one was really free to buy the cake so my mum went instead (which was very rare as my mum had to specially go out to JP to buy whereas if my siblings buy it'll be on their way home), and my mum "stubbornly" decided to get a logan cake. If it were my siblings who buy the cake, they will definitely buy the chocolate one (the type of cake in the poison incident) as they know i like chocolate!
It could have been us man...phew
Back from digressing, this year's birthday got some differences compared to all other birthdays...
1) I got myself a present! hehe.. I love watches since young but I never really had the cash (or the heart to spend the cash) to buy a really nice one for myself. So yea... got one for myself this year as a birthday present to myself as well as a reward for working for almost half a year le! =p
2) Got a supper celebration with whole family cum aunt and uncle hehe. Rare for my parents to still be able to keep awake for any time later than 11pm, rare for my whole family to eat together (I work late at times and my brother works even later so we seldom eat dinner together) and even more rare to have my aunt and uncle with us also. But we had sumptious food --satay, chicken wings, grilled prawns, teh tarik (super nice!!), sugar cane juice, fried oyster, fried rice =)
3) First time working on my birthday and also having my colleagues to celebrate for me =)
