Birthday photos

Far out!! It's been like more than a month since ANYONE posted ANYTHING!!!! what's happened to everyone!?!? MIA..i guess everyone busy.

Anyways, just just wanted to share a few photos with u gurls. Photos are in conjuction with my birthday celebration. Went out for dinner at this place called Liquid Bar located in Docklands (it's by the harbour). Food was good, atmosphere was great, company was excellent, service was awesome.

Top: Me and my Bomb Alaska.
Bottom: The bunch great company.

Bomb Alaska was my "cake". It's chocolate brownie topped with ice cream and italian meringue flamed at your table. The waiter had a candle stuck in it as well..started singing Happy Birthday..n soon enough the whole restaurant was singing for me! haha..quite embarrasing but it was so sweet!! so nice!! When i say flamed at the table, it literally means flaming the cake. They pour some sort of alcohol n light it which produced blue flames..n pour it over the cake. I know its hard to picture what i'm saying..but it was awesome.

Anyhoo, that's it for that day's celebration. The following week, I sorta had another celebration. It was my cousin's 1st bday as well (born same day as me). So his mom was having a big 1st birthday thingie for him. We were invited, but little did i know, the mom was gonna bake a cake for me to cut as well! Pretty embarrasing too..but oh well..it was all good. Everyone came wishing me, even those i didnt know.

At work, only one colleague knew it was my birthday. And what did he do?? He told everyone else and even made an announce over the PA system, which resulted in so many ppl coming up to wish me! was pretty funny.

All in all, I had a great bday this year. So many memories which i don't know how to express in this blog. It will only be in my memory. For always!!
