Happy Birthday to the best girlfriend in the world!

It's just past 12 midnight on 29th November, and a special feeling tingles in my heart. This day, 22 years ago, the love of my life was born. The circumstances under which we met and got together were rather quirky and yet memorable... nonetheless, since then, my life has really brightened up.





I dedicate this whole entry to Sherms... my partner in life, my Rukia, my bunny... the girl i can only be angry at for 10 minutes max... the one who can make me smile even without saying a word... who can make me laugh just by being herself. Thank the Heavens for bringing you into this world, and into my life... Happy Birthday my darling... may joy and love continue to flood into ur life... and may you smile more often in the new year.. You know how it melts me inside when you smile...













PS: ARGH WE GOT A BLOODY EXAM in a Few Hours Time!!!

My Birthday Celebrations part 2

And it's the 28th of July! one day till my actual birthday! I arranged with my gf to go watch Genevieve's play "Happy Endings: Asian Boys Volume 3"... It's the 2nd last day of her performance and i really wanted to catch it. And i didn't regret it at all!! IT's such a nice play! Even though it's about gays and their love life, i thought it was tastefully done! as in, it didn't scare straight people like me. It was actually a rather touching story. I must say, the scriptwriter's brilliant. The cast was very strong too!














And of cos dear Gen was brilliant!! hehe well done, girl! So so proud of you... hope you liked the pretty (and rather expensive) sunflower!! U better not throw it away too quickly!! hahaha.
Oh and galvin belongs to theatre man. he was excellent too.














And so my gf brought me to the 'surprise' place for my birthday dinner... it was at Graze, in rochester park... very nice place too bad i didn't take a lot of pictures of the place itself though.. but u can check it out online. hehe











While we waited for our food, we had some water and a phallic-looking bread. haha. So you can roughly see the restaurant settings in the background... pretty much al-fresco, and very nice choice of furniture and lighting.











Looking at the menu, I was wondering what "barramundi" was... Sherms said it was a fish. I told her she was thinking of "baracuda". We were laughing over it for awhile until the waiter told us it IS a fish. hahah well steal my slippers and call me susie! who would have known?? haha anyway the top left pic's the barramundi (not fantastic, but fresh nonetheless) and sherm's totally delectable wild mushroom risotto. She enjoyed it of course... i mean, she loves risotto and wild mushrooms individually...so when u combine them, u get a very happy shermeen. hahaha

We also shared a plate of BBQ sausages... not too bad~








My 'dessert' is at the other end of the table. Muahaha...











Typical fine-dining: Huge plate, with small portions of food.






Okay here was the actual dessert... SO SINFUL i tell you.. It's called pimms poached pear... basically a pear with white chocolate mousse inside, and with sweet walnuts, a slab of pure cream and biscuits by the side. The pear tasted really nice though.



And here's the 'dish' that really took the prize. ahahaha. The one that i'll be having for the rest of my life. hahah thank you so much darling for the wonderful dinner. Yummy!
