The 27th Birthday Post.

It was the biggest turnout to celebrate my birthday since my one-year-old birthday!!! Heh heh. I am gonna do this post by dividing it into three parts, Food, Presents!!!, and The People.

Food
We had dinner at
Casa Bom Vento, Seah's Street. I chose that place after seeing Michelle and Gurmit eating there on TV. Some pictures of the food!







Woah... all the food and more... If you noticed, I did not state the name of the dishes... cuz I can't remember!!! Wahahaha. You can read more about the dishes and the review in this food blog. I think I probably had high expectations for the food... so it fell abit below that. A lil' disappointed. But that's alright, cuz more fantastic things follow.

Presents!!!
I love this part, opening of presents! The first I actually got from my girlfriend in the afternoon. Its a
Citizen Eco-Drive watch!


A photo of me posing with the watch. I know I am no Ekin or Andy Lau... hah hah.


You might be wondering, whats Eco-Drive... Do you know this baby is powered by solar energy??? Incredible right? A single day charge can last for half a year! Maybe you will have the same question as me, "Where are the solar cells?!". Eh, read this review to find out!

The next is the present from the rest of my friends combined. This present is really something, its
Item #1 and Item #10 of my Birthday Wishlist combined! Of cuz it must be a very expensive gift, but thats not the whole point... I can tell they put in alot of effort to find it. Deeply appreciate it! Not sure who chose it, but wanna thank all of you! Ah Fa and XTT-KC played a big part right? =O)


Btw, its a grey bag which sometimes appear green, sometimes brown, under different lightings. Interesting hor? heh heh.

Other than these presents, there's also the cake. They sang me the birthday song, very
paiseh lah, so old liaoz. Hee hee. This is the cake.


And me cutting the cake.


Btw, my birthday wish was that everyone would be happy, healthy and really successful. Hope it'll come true!

The People
Finally comes to the most important portion, my wonderful friends who celebrated for me! Here goes,

My thoughtful and lovely girlfriend who went through great troubles to get me that watch. I love it very much. Just don't know how to express it face to face.


My buddies since university days,


My buddies since secondary days,


My shy neighbour in office who doesn't talk much. Ahaha.


And the three golden flowers from my office! Ain't they cute? So lucky hor? heh heh.


There's lotsa "thank you"s I wanna say... Actually I said it before the celebration in this post. Hope you guys will read it. Its something heartfelt and I sincerely mean it. =) Also thanks to everyone else who contributed to the present. I'll make good use of it! Btw, thanks for tolerating my awful voice at the KTV just now, paiseh hogged the mic for quite long. Ahahah. But I really enjoyed myself alot.

Next, Ah Fa's birthday? ;0)

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

I Will Be Back With More Time.

It is more than two years since I last blogged! Not that nothing interesting happened. In fact, plenty happened! Shifted house, shifted office, boys grew, had Hand Foot Mouth Disease (ouch!)! Just to name a few. There were gains and losses. Life's ups and downs. Of me, and those around me. I haven't been doing much deep thinking and thus less writing. Not enough time? That is probably an excuse. But it is true that I have not slept well for quite awhile. It is hard to explain the stress from work, where nothing goes smooth, and every step forward is a hurdle. Technology also had made it simple and addictive for us to mindlessly share. Share our thoughts in bits and pieces. Forming persona of ourselves to acquaintances and friends I hardly meet anymore. I remember experimenting with Tumbler, finding ways to post once, publish everywhere. It didn't quite work out. Even when technology made it is so easy, I have not been diligently editing and uploading photos of my darlin
