The Big 2

It's 0630 and I'm still wide awake. Here's a rundown on my birthday weekend. (:

Saturday, 22nd April, 2030 hours.

Had a pre-celebration with the Yong Tau Foo girlies on Saturday. The girlies treated me to Nooch @ Paragon and bought me the cake I wanted from Bakerzinn! HRC with Jojo, Bessy and Jie after that. No pictures because I was just, well, too happy and forgot to take my camera out. -.-

Thank you girls for everything. The "surprise" birthday cake, although I kinda suspected something wasn't right like Zen said, but the cake really did come as a surprise eventually.

Sunday, 23rd April, 0400 hours.

Supper with Jie and then headed back to the Weed's. The moment we reached Weed's doorstep, she told me "Baby, you have to close your eyes and walk straight to my toilet.". What choice did I have but to follow instructions right?

If I were ever to go blind one day and I'd have to rely on her leading the way, I think I'll die within 3 days. She covered my eyes and I didn't peek one bit and ended up ramming into her toilet door. -.-

-0430 hours.
So I stayed in the suffocating toilet for about 10 - 15 minutes with absolutely nothing to do before she finally said that I could come out. Thank goodness I'm not claustrophobic or I would have died.

My lil one had tea light candles laid out all the way from the toilet to her living room, which all eventually led to this heart shape formed by more tea light candles and in the middle of the heart was a hand made card (because I always complain that she never makes anything) and MY LE COQ SPORTIF BALLET SHOES, AGNES B EDITION!

I blinked for two seconds not recognizing the shoes because I never knew that they had it in Black (the one I saw was white) and I couldn't believe that the KNN S$195 dream come true shoes were looking back at me.

Other than saying "Oh my God.", I was basically speechless and I still am speechless.

-2245 hours.
We were walking aimlessy in town when I needed the ladies so I "borrowed" Crown Prince Hotel's toilet. When I came out, she was no where to be seen so I called her. So she picked up and asked me to wait for her at wherever I was because she was talking to her friend. After awhile she came back and we continued walking around aimlessy.

-2330 hours.
She said she needed the toilet so we went to Specialist Centre then she started acting so damn strange with my Agnes B paper bag that contained my shoes after coming out from the toilet.

We continued walking and when we reached the "coffee shop" next to Meridien she told me, "Wait here, don't move" and I obediently rooted myself to the ground. A minute or two later, she returned and we continued walking then she suggested going to Istana Park. My immediate reaction was "Go there feed mosquitoes is it?!" but I obliged of course.

-2358 hours.
She suddenly jumped up and said, "I'll be right back" and started running off. My reaction this time was "Where are you going?! Its so quiet here what if I get raped?!" (I was just exaggerating of course). She hid in the corner doing whatever she had to do and made my back face her so I couldn't see.

- Sunday, 24th April, 0000 hours.

The moment I got my first birthday SMS at 12, she screamed asking if it was 12 and when I assured her it was, I turned around to see what she was up to this time. There was the lil one again, walking towards me with ice cream cake in her hands!

-1700 hours.
Travelled to the other end of Singapore, Woodlands to pick the lil one up from school and headed down town after.

Parklane wanton mee and Rochor beancurd. Totally heaven because I've been craving for both for the longest time already. Then we caught Eight Below at Cathay Picturehouse. The show's fantastic by the way, go catch it.

And I cried but only because the show was so dammit touching that I cried so technically, I got through my birthday without crying! (:

---

A huge thank you to all the well wishers. And yes, may my dreams come true. Haha.

An even bigger thank you to the lil one for making this birthday such a sweet saccharine one. For all the surprises that you went through so much to carry out, for all the time and effort searching high and low for the perfect present, for buying me my perfect pair of shoes, for all the love, hugs, misses, kisses and even tears and most of all, for just being you. ilu*

I have to say this one more time. I love my Seaweed many many!

This is how happy I am, (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((:

"And if I asked,
Would you say yes?
Would you?
I need to know."
