20's A Charm? (:

This post is 2 months overdue I know! But better late than never right? :p 

Since my birthday was on a Monday, which was also the first day that Year 2 starts,
 I thought I didn't get to celebrate much this year.

So, the day before, baby brought me to Malacca for a one day trip :) 

We reached there around lunch time, and went to find Daniel & Lavender who were there overnight, for lunch. 

This is the restaurant where we had our lunch :) 

Nice environment, huh? ;) 

The menu looked really tempting, and surprisingly affordable. 

I was expecting the portion to be small since the price was quite low, and we were so used to KL food portions.... But when the food came.... o.O 

That's baby's Fish & Chips, HALF EATEN! Imagine how huge it was before :O

Yup that's my spaghetti. I don't even think it costs more than RM20! 

Photo together before we started walking around Jonker Street. :) 

This is the famous chicken rice ball restaurant in Malacca, which unfortunately, we didn't get to taste because we were SO FULL from lunch!
Would love to go back there and have a try though. :) 

Baby & I walked around Jonker Street... 

(lol I know! :p) 

Halfway walking, I started to get really bad tummy cramps cuz of that huge lunch and fast paced walking :(

So we stopped by at this cosy little place to sit down and have dessert (while I just had water lar). 

Unfortunately, I forgot the name of the place too! It's called Explorer something... Or something explorer. Can't remember, too long ago :( 

That's what's bad when you start writing your blog posts wayyy too late than you should :p 

(nice little fountain they have in the place (: ) 

After that we continued walking and walking and walking... :) 

 

And we saw this really, really, God damn huge lizard swimming in the river! 

More sceneries :) 

Christ Church Melaka

Remains of a fort.

Water Wheel! :p

Casa del Rio behind us. A really, really beautiful hotel in Malacca.

Would love to stay there for a night next time :)

I have no idea what this place is called, but basically it's a man-made ship, built in the middle of the town. 

You pay a small price for an entrance ticket, and there are like, lots of historical stuff inside. :) 

Yeah, I think that was about all the photos we took. :) 

Hope I got them all! 

After the whole trip, we went back to PJ to attend Uncle Jin & Aunty Gina's open house. :) 

My dad got me a freakin DELICIOUS Tiramisu cake. 

Seriously, it's the BEST. 

May not look that great but trust me on this! 

mmhmm just look at me lookin at it lol.

No lar I wasn't that excited about the cake. 

I was just forced to take this photo by my aunty & uncle -.-

About the cake.. (if you know, you're interested)

It's made by one of my dad's customers, she's like selling it from home.

It's called Sugary Moments. 

Visit them here :) 

They customized my sister's 2nd birthday cake too. 

Cute huh! 

No pics of me blowing the candles or cutting the cake though. 

Strictly demanded for no birthday song! 

I find it like, a really long stretchy awkward moment when people are singing for your birthday,

And you don't know whether to just sit there and look nice, look at the cake, look at them, or sing along.

But anyway, I didn't manage to escape that for long.... Read on! 

Next day, which was my actual birthday, I went to my first class of Year 2 :) 

Seriously, I can't believe I'm already in 2nd Year. 

It's really tough, I'm struggling and barely surviving! 

But from baby's continuous encouragement and support, I'm going to be strong and pull through.

I'm gonna do my best and finish all 4 years :) 

Siew Wei was soooooooooo sweet! She actually wanted to get me a birthday cake haha! 

But obviously, since my uni's in Semenyih, in a jungle, in the middle of no where...

They don't sell whole cakes nearby or in campus. 

So this is what I got :) 

Yeah more tiramisu lol. :) 

But I really appreciate the mini surprise! 

Gwen was part of it too, those two sneaky girls :p 

After  class, I went home.. Same ol' same ol'.... 

Baby & I planned to have a dinner alone for my birthday. 

Some special alone time. :) 

Though he was acting sneaky the whole day. Real sneaky... 

He wouldn't tell me where we were going! 

He made really huge, awkward rounds around the whole Damansara area. 

Until we finally reached TTDI, and I asked if we were eating at one of the places he goes quite often. 

He still denied it, even though it was so obvious that he was finding for a parking -.- 

But I was right anyway, we were eating there :p 

The place is called Tom, Dick & Harry's. 

It's kinda like a pub-cum-restaurant. 

Food's really awesome and surprisingly, affordable! 

Drinks are quite reasonably priced too. :)

And you know, the usual. We entered, baby reserved a table. 

Waiter showed us to our table, and I was like "babe, why's the table so big?"

To which he replied "Oh, you know it's a weekday and all, they have plenty of tables to spare".

So I'm like, okay... But you know, I was pretty sure he was up to something anyway. 

Which was confirmed like, 5 seconds after I got myself seated down. 

Because a bunch of CRAZY ASSES start screaming and grabbing me from behind! 

Yeah, the crazy asses were Huiyi, Jon, Fran & Shane! 

And so this was why baby was SOOOO SNEAKY the whole damn day! 

Go near his phone a bit also start panicking already. -.- 

And I did suspect that there was probably going to be a party too. 

Because he did tell me about it, but he told me it was cancelled.

To which, Huiyi told me it was on again.

And then it was off again.

And then on again. And then off, once again. -.- 

But I know baby went through a whole lot of hassle and hell to get this little get-together up and going. :) 

I love you baby, and thank you so so much for everything! 

I feel so loved :) 

I don't know why we ended up posing like that. 

I think we were tryin to look gangsta lol. 

But I ended up just looking like some cina lala -.- 

After dinner and drinks and some boy/girl chit chat time

 (yeah like literally we split into boy and girl groups to chat lol), 

We went back to my place to cut the cake with my family :) 

The boyfriends at the sofa lol! 

Baby & I & the 4 crazy asses lol. 

Cutting the cake. :)

The BEST BABY IN THE WORLD! :D

'

My mom & I :)

My family & I :) 

That's my uncle with my baby cousin, Cody. 

He's really cute! 

So that was how I spent my birthday this year. (:

Of course I got some gifts too! 

This was from Chloe, my cousin. :) 

She gave it to me before she went back to the States to complete her studies. 

Basically she got everything that I wanted to buy for myself lol! 

This was from Francisca.

I love the bracelets! 

And I rarely even wear/buy bracelets cuz I seldom find ones that I really, really like. :) 

Siew Wei surprised me with a gift too! 

She got me a collar tee from Giordano (I think?) 

She has an exact same one too lol! 

And of course, baby just had to get me something too! 

Despite me constantly nagging him not to get me anything..

Baby got me a purse from Guess because I don't exactly have a proper one. 

He's got really good taste because I'm really picky and choosy, but I love the purse! 

It's not really that bulky, lots of compartments for cards and stuff too. 

The pattern's not too plain, but not too exaggerating as well.

I won't be changing my purse for a loooong time now. :) 

To sum it all up, I think this is by far the most eventful birthday I've ever had in 2 decades :) 

I know I always say I don't wanna have a big celebration. 

But baby really managed to give me the best of both. 

It was simple, but yet I could spend it with my friends too. 

It may not have been all of them, but I was really happy that night! :) 

And I really just wanna end the post by telling you how much I appreciate your efforts, baby!

You never fail to make me happy. 

You always do your best to give me the best, even when I don't ask for it. 

You'd put anything and anyone aside if I ever need you. 

I love you more than anything, babe.

You'll be all that I'd ever need.  ♥
