20th!
Yesterday felt more like my birthday than the actual day...I don't know if HLKY felt the same way O.O
Haha...but yes, I had so much fun and laughed so much that I actually teared and got sore throat. LOL...
Nat and Vann were toying with the lamp and kept performing "magic" with it. At some point Van could even switch off the lamp in the opposite table behind us! hahaha....so shen rite? (She tripped the wire)
So when our drinks came, it was so colourful!HAHA...XY and my Cranberry Lustre tasted as good as it looks! Kris had peppermint tea, which helped in my sneezing bouts, nat had rose 'butt' (rosebud) tea and vann had a lemony concoction of ZOC.
HAHA...i love the soup! I think the soup tasted better than the dish. LOL...but my chicken wasn't half bad except that it was a little dry and XY's and Vann's salsa dish had no salsa? lol...i think it because while waiting for ritty, we waited and the dishes had turned cold. I don't know, you know tom yam soup?When it cools down the spiciness also diminishes?
Ritty finally came in with Nat....with my cake. Funny that it was cheesecake, because that same morning, i baked a cheesecake with my Soci of Food groupmates and had some leftover. So Kris and XY wanted slices and i brought. Before the cake came in, we were eating my cheesecake. Later, when Ritty and Nat walked in with the cheesecake, i was like "WOW....THIS IS A COINCIDENCE OR WHAT?!"
hahaha...they started to burst into song and so did the whole restaurant, which made me red-faced for a good 30 seconds which, warning cliches ahead: seemed to last forever. BUT it such a nice feeling to have the whole restaurant sing...embarrassing, but nice =) My poor Ritty told me that he was equally embarrassed as well and someone on the far end of the restaurant said something really loudly like "boyfriend ah!"
So nat was industriously cutting stabbing the cake. I think the base was thick that's why the normal plastic knife couldn't penetrate. In any case, it was quite funny to watch her cut the cake into such nice proportions...leaving the chocolate for me =D I didn't now how to eat the strawberry with the green leaves still attached though. HAHAHA...kris and XY had their 2nd serving of cheesecake. I don't think they minded.
Yeah....later talked and made a fool of ourselves..but what i'm especially happy was the gift exchange!
Finally I could give them their presents that for some, were long overdue (*sneeze nat sneeze kris*)....so happy to see their faces lit up when they received their gifts. To me, I think that's like receiving a gift in return. HAHA...I finally got my Moschino Hippy Fizz!
REALLY! I think for the many times we went Sasa and smell that perfume hoping one day i could own that Happy Yellow Bottle that held that Happy Yellow Fragrance...whee~ Now i can be reminded to be happy everyday! LOL....Thanks Nat, Vann and XY for going around town to find a suitable wallet for me...=) I know it was hard work trying to get one right...I appreciate the effort more!
So yes...it was a magical day in more ways than 1....Applause to Nat for the successful gathering...i seriously didn't even see the cake coming. HAHAHA....well apart from the birthday girl catching a chill and sneezing endlessly during some of our many picture sessions, i wouldn't have traded any single of it for anything else.
I would like to see HLKY enjoy something so meaningful sometime...heh heh heh heh
