Hahah... today's already 11th June...
How time flies....
Had a FANTASTIC Birthday celebration this year.. Wow...
Really had plenty of surprises... though some were somewhat expected....
I roughly know what's coming.. just dunno when.. hehehe....
Nice nice... :)
How can i not rem a week that's so special???

Let's start from the night of 6th June...
Darling booked out.. so we met for Ice Cream at Swensens... :)
Sent me back... and I was doing forecast... can you imagine?? Coz there were some urgent forecasts to be made and changed.. Duhz!!
And... some kind soul gotta start calling me 30min before my Big Day till 12:05am!
Urgh!!! Didnt get to 'countdown' at all!! Duhz... :S
Hahha... next... some fun-loving people were banging on my window at 00:00hrs..
Hahaha.. There I was... on the line with some kind soul... and rushing out to open the door, with darling standing behind me and.. I had a cake in front of me... 4 nice darlings singing song for me...and all the while, i was still holding onto my hp... then another line came in.. another nice darling called to wish me.. and apologize for not being there..... then... the 1st hung up... another fellow TL called to wish me... and the other darling still waiting on the line.... then finally.. the little darlings stepped into my house, under the instruction of my Darling..
Hhaha.. I was lost man... so many things happening at the same time.. i didnt even know what to do next.. hahah...
I did expect them to do something like that.. just that not so sure if it'll happen.. keke.. :)

So they stayed till 1plus.. and left..
Some photos to rem that special nite... :)

7th June - The Day!
Woke up and was looking through the photos and movies taken the nite before...
And guess what?? Saw some movies I was not supposed to see.. hahha.. They were recording part of my Birthday celebration plans and I saw the most impt part, which I was not supposed to see!! Hahhahaha.. :P
So.. halfway through, I decided to close the video.. as I still want to be surprised lo..
Don't want to know everything.. how sad.. all their efforts will go down the drain.. hehe.. :)

So I left for Office... and Shanice was keeping me from going for lunch!!
Coz Dave and Liyun weren't back from appts.. haha...
So.. i went for lunch.. and came back... they got me a BIG cake!!
Usually, we'll just get a small slice.. but they got a BIG one for me!! Woah..
Hehe.. so touched.. :)

Then.. i was informed that Dad is hospitalised.. oh no...
So I left for SGH at 4plus.. got some bread for him...
And followed him to his ward... then mum came... and since dad looks quite okay...i left..
Eh... got birthday celebration leh... Bleah...
So i make my way to New York New York at City Link.. Nice place!! nice food tooo!
Probably so much so, when you have nice people ard!! :D

So.. there were about 8 people when I reached... nobody supposed to be there already...
So we were chatting... Eng passed me 2 little cute piggies... that has a voice recording function...
Apparently.. Darling had met up with eng and james earlier to do some recording.. hahaha...
And.. after i listened to the piggies.. Someone tapped me on my shoulder from the back!
I turned..saw the white sleeve and I know its HIM!!!
Hahaha... That was a nice surprise... though I sort of guess that he probably would be coming... Just dunno what time.. hehehe..
He supposed to sing me a song.. but too bad... someone came at that time too.. ahha.. (no worries.. I'm not blaming you... :))
So.. the momentum and atmosphere was gone.. and no song was sung.. hehe..

So we had a nice meal at NYNY... Please.. make reservations in future if you wanna eat there.. it was sooooooo packed loh... aiyo!! Can't believe it man... I see people standing there for like 20minutes...when i was happily sitting there and enjoying my food!! Hee.. :)
So... after the piggies, I was given a BIG box from EG+Jia+Jul...
It's a Guitar Stand! Cool!! Been wanting one for a long long time!! Hee..
After we finished eating... there was a part II gift from Team E.. How sweet! :)
It's my much wanted Ear Piece for walkie talkie that we used when we serve... :)
Nice nice! :D

After dinner, we went for Ice Cream at Ben & Jerrys.. And then Darling sent me home and went back to camp....
So.. a nice night.... Hahha.. one of the rarest time that all i want for Birthday is fulfilled.. hehe.. :)
Thanks to all! :D



8th June - Post Birthday...
Took out all my presents received this year and laid them out for a nice shot.. hehe..
Nice big card from my team.. and a ear piece and mascara! Hahha...
I knew it would not just be a mascara.. hahah... I have faith in them.. true enough... A nice ear piece too... hehe.. :)
Oh..the small card is from EG+Jia+Jul.. :)


9th June - Sat Support
Went for support in the morning... Darling went for his IPPT....
So.. after support.. i left to meet up with Darling to visit Daddy in Hospital...
Just as we reached Outram MRT.. Mummy called and said Daddy can be discharged... >.<"
So we took the train back to Tampines again...
Had lunch at Pizza Hut.. haha.. and then back to service.... Nothing much... :)

10th June - A special day to remember
It's been a month! :D
Supposed to meet Darling for breakfast at Tampines... but he got up sooo early...that i just suggested him to come Yishun meet me loh.. since i got a Guitar to carry.. Coz gotta help CGL play for make up CG at Bedok after svc... almost disrupted our plans for the evening.. but ok la.. still serving God.. hehe...

So... supposed to meet at Northpoint.. but due to some delay here and there.. Darling reached my doorstep at 8am, before I was even ready.. hahaha..
So we went down for breakfast at Mac'Donalds..
He insisted that i took the seat that was facing the wall.. well.. not much of a preference.. so I sat where he wanted me to...
After we finished our meal...he was signaling something to the crew...
Within seconds, a bouquet of roses appeared in front of me!!
WAHhhhhhhh.... hahaha.. it was a sweet surprise!!
I thought he's going to get me something when he suggested meeting at Northpoint... then at the void deck.. not coming up etc... but when he came empty handed...I was a little disappointed though.. haha... but i was thinking.. nvm... its okie....
Never thought that he'll roped in Mac crews to help out.. Steady! Hahaha...
Yup.. so together with mum.. we took cab to Expo Hall 1..
So malu with a big bouquet walking in.. urgh.. I don't like it leh...
So paiseh.. hehehe... I shy one u know??
Yeah loh...

After service.. went to play for make up CG... ended real early.. we were on our way back to Expo at about 245pm... Reached expo... found another kind soul to help me keep my guitar... ehh.. dont expect me to go round with that big guitar rite?? hahah...
Yeah.. and we took a bus to town....
Didnt really know where we were supposed to go... just let Darling plan.
Don't want to know.. and don't want to plan also.. He's supposed to give me surprise ma... hehe..
Yup.. we took a little walk around Esplanade... and took some photos... hehe...
Here's some for your pleasure.. :)

Yup.. at about 6pm, I was hungry le... so i asked if we could have dinner earlier??hehe...
Yeah... so we made our way to Marina Square... to this nice Japanese Restaurant.. Waraku or something like that.. :)
Woohoo... it's a nice meal.. Really fresh and nice...
But.. the price also rather nice.. of coz compared to Sakae Sushi... it's a big diff.. but for a restaurant.. i think it's rather nice.. hehe.. :)
Thanks Darling!! :D

At the end of the dinner.... he dish out another surprise... hahaha...
I saw the wrapped up present at the end of svc earlier.. but he claimed it was to be passed to someone from another someone... ookkaayy.. not very convincing... but well... since when he'll want to put someone's present in my bag?? hahhaha...
Since he insist..then okay loh... I was thinking.. it might be mine anyway.. don't be too selfish.. hahah...
True enough.. it was for me... actually halfway through.. i was thinking.. what could be inside that box?? And know what?? There was just this immediate response.. probably from the HS... That watch loh... I was like... OH!!??!!
And... never doubt what the HS prompts u.. hahaha... It is THAT watch!! Hahahhaa...
MMmm.. guys... next time must pray that HS wont give you away first... hehehe... :P
Thanks Darling... Really appreciate all that you've done the past month... :)
More to say.. shall leave it just for his eyes and ears... not here... for the world to see.. hahahah..

Shall leave you with more photos.. :)
That's all for today... :)

I'm happy.. and I'm sad now.. Coz.. I wont get to see him the next 4 days!!
Well... again... serving the Nation is more important... hehehe.... :)
His presents shall keep me company... And of coz... I have the HS with me..
I may be alone.. but not lonely.. :)
