My Birthday Part I

I woke up early this morning feeling fresh though noticing the ‘numbers’ are getting bigger; but I am feeling YOUNG. While getting ready for work, mum came greeting me “Happy Birthday Girl” and gave an Ang Pao… mmmh… I felt all YOUNG again. Before setting off, I took my time to have one of the two Red ‘colored’ eggs which mum prepared for me (it’s a tradition la).

When I arrived at work, my close colleagues came giving me hugs and warm greetings/wishes. The sms from friends today were the highest in history and I really felt so warmed & loved by so many friends. I was called to the reception at the quarter of the morning and was surprised to receive a cake from Mandarin Oriental Hotel. I was really speechless as I wasn’t expecting that at all.

I thought it would be nice to give my close buddies at work a treat and we decided to lunch instead. Linda & my darling Angie went out to get us lunch and man… it was a small feast and birthday celebration at our very own dining room. Though no posh restaurant or fine dining but it was absolutely enjoyable.















Happy moments passed really fast and I received another call from the reception in the mid-afternoon. For a moment, I thought it was the Conrad room service people who came to pack up as I had a few guest from Japan having meeting in our office. I was really surprised to see the Sales Manager and the Director of Sales from Conrad instead. They came with a cake and a bouquet of beautiful flowers. Though I wasn’t the type who loves flowers but that bouquet was really stunning!




I was rather shy to bring the flowers to dinner but thanks to Ah K who provided me a big paper bag to hide my cake at least…

Thank you pals for the wonderful moments, the wishes and the gifts. Cheers!
