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. :-)

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too...

Resolutions 2012.

While my one-year-old is going for his first steps, I am also learning to walk (again). 2011 was full of ups and downs.  I was promoted for the 2nd time in my first job. Not fantastic but not bad either after six years. The challenging issues justifies for the few more dollars increment to the stipend. Murphy is my good friend. With only the final milestone left, I hope to overcome all odds and pull the rabbit outta the hat in 2012! If I am lucky, I may run another project.  For the consecutive year, I expended all my medical leave. After hearing my story, some may say 父爱是伟大的. Some may think I was pure clumsy. As my son likes to watch basketball playing, I decided to show him how to do it myself. At first I felt good, I got it plenty of shots. Unfortunately, I broke my ACL while chasing after the ball. It has been two months and my knee is still weak and hurts occasionally. I plan to go for surgery in 2012, while performing the balancing act of pulling the rabbit and recup...
