Happy Birthday to me!
Well. That was nearly 2 months ago since I celebrated my birthday.
I’m using the word ‘celebrate’ very very loosely here.
But still!! One year younger! Haha!
I can’t believe it is half way through the month of April already. I’ve spent December 2008 and January for NAPSA Congress. I needed more than 2 months to recover from the NAPSA Congress. I kid you not. It took so much energy of mine. And probably due to the fact that I started IPSF without taking too much a break at all in between. I am actually, quite tired.
I don’t usually do birthday bashes. Fact, I strongly dislike birthday gathering/party. The idea of people gathering around you, singing the good ol’ Happy Birthday song. It freaks me out! I’m not use to being in the centre.
On my birthday, I call home and thank my mum. Every year. Thank her for all the ‘hard work’ for bringing me to this beautiful world. Thanks mum and dad.. oh yeah! your contribution as well 
So, I didn’t feel very comfortable of doing the big gathering thingy, but I never said I gave up on food right? ;P
Kian took me to Julio’s Restaurant at Subi. We sat in a quite corner, two of us, enjoying the very moment. The service was great. What I mean here is, the waitperson approched us at the RIGHT time.
She asked us if we would like a bottle of wine after giving us some times to review the wine list. *pleased*
Unlike some wanker waitperson I’ve encountered before,
“ooh, can I get you some wine?”
“sure. where is the wine list?”
“ooh, hang on a minute.. I fetch you one.”
Having said that there are many other wankers who have given diners horrible experiences.
Well, I know how hard it is to work in hospitality and retail, therefore I don’t demand the staff to do everything. As long as they fetch me the wine and food at the right time, and charge us correctly, I don’ give a damn.
After work, all I want is a peaceful moment with the people I spend time with. I won’t mind if the waitperson doesn’t socialise with us. See, I have to talk so much at work and even when I’m tired, I have to pretend that I am ‘actually’ caring. wtf. How lame. I know.
Anyway, this photo features my dinner of the night: Il Piatto Del Julio’s (seafood combination). It tasted fantastic! I love everything to the bits!
Till then.. Enjoy the long weekend. Make sure you don’t overdose yourself with Easter chocolate eggs! >.<

那似乎是偶然的一天 你从温暖的室内终于接触到室外的冷 你呱呱的啼声表示内心深处 存在着对恩的感激
这不该是偶然的一天 你年年都会记住 终于又度过一个生日 你欢喜的庆祝 是否内心深处 已忘了对恩的感激
可曾知道当两个生命 挣扎着生存 是痛苦与欢乐的交响 是含泪的满足
或许会有那样的一天 你终于体会到 世间最珍贵的母难日 是无可取代的
这是内心深处 充满着对恩的感激 可曾记得当母亲痛苦 挣扎的时候 是生存与死亡的一线 是施恩与受惠的一刻 是含泪的感恩
Ya Wei: Yeah, this song makes me cry all the time. And this is the reason why I never gave up calling mum and thank her for all the things she does for me.
Happy birthday! *HUGS*
