Birthday celebration

I guess when you get older, you don’t really fancy big woohaa birthday celebrations. At least that is what I feel personally.

I prefer something quiet and prefer quality time spent with family and even if its just a small simple celebrations, i think the presence of support and love are ingredients that I really look forward to.

This year, I have been very blessed once again. Cos I have various surprises and great fellowship.

Started with a family BBQ steamboat dinner at home with my parents and auntie 2 saturdays ago, as I had to fly off last sat for business trip.

So they brought forward the celebration. Totally enjoyed the time spent with my family.

And after dinner, my sister bought me an awesome almond longan cake from Rive! Yummy!!

Second cake was actually with my in laws, celebrated together with Audrey and Edward, my sister and brother in laws. My father in law gave us 2 dinner treats! Yummy! Just a waste that we did not take any picture. And so that was my second cake.

The third cake was another awesome awfully cake from my beloved finance team members!! really love them a lot, cos that day, i just causally made a remark that I like the cake from Awfully chocolate. And they really made it happened!!! They went all the way to Ion during lunch and bought me a cake from there!!! 超感动!*tears in my eyes*. I remember last year, even though I was very new to the team, they also brought me a cake to celebrate my birthday for me, and the pictures even went up to the video presented to the financial leadership team of Dallas. Our team birthday celebrations are just going from glory to glory!!

And when i was in India, I was given a mega surprise when they actually arranged a birthday cake for me on Monday night while we were having our team dinner in the fine dining restaurant. Totally caught off guard and felt a bit embarrassed cos 70 over people were there and the whole lot of them sang me a birthday song, and my Asia FD was seated just opposite me that night!! Too bad i dont have a picture of the cake with me now… will wait for the photos from the india team. :-)

And yesterday, after I landed in Singapore and went back for a 3 hour nap, Dear had a day off and we went out for a mini celebration, even though i still felt like a zombie! A result of the severe lack of sleep in Bangalore.

Nevertheless, still a very enjoyable quality pak toh time and we went feasting at Seoul Garden! LOLz.

After that, went to get the birthday present. Tada!!!
