The 22nd Birthday

Since I could not wait any longer to "open the table" this Chinese New Year, I had several friends over for some house visiting on Wednesday (25th Jan) and you know...heh.. By several I meant, there were only 4 of us in total. Everyone else is either back in hometown / studying overseas / could not celebrate CNY this time around.

So, Michelle and Khin Chew was late while Bernard was the earliest to arrive. I begun questioning out loud "Why are they so late?" only to have Bernard say, "They're buying cake for you ma."

That awkward moment when you thought "Oh! Right...wasn't that meant to be a surprise?"

Haha! And that's what I told him exactly. Ever the funny-straight-forward guy he is, he realised his mistake and asked me to act surprise later on. Haha!

Yup! So that's the chocolate cake that they've bought for me and sang a birthday song a day before the actual day.

If you've noticed, it is a Forever 21 birthday candles on top of a 22 inscribed on top of the cake. Khin Chew theory is that it is forever 21 and hence, that amount of candles. lol

On the actual birthday itself, we went for a short dinner at a restaurant which I would be blogging about sometime later. Awesome noodles for dinner! And later, for deserts.

The day ended with a full stomach, lots of laughter and with a good company :)

Funny how when you privatise your birth date on Facebook, and only a handful of people remembers what day it was. Haha! The power of Social Media and technologies eh? *makingmyselfrememberbirthdaysofclosefriendsfromnowonwards:)*
