My 25th Birthday

This year's birthday is much more special than the others, all thanks to one person: My girlfriend Wan Ching.

First thing she did for me was to wait until midnight on the stroke of my birthday to post a Happy Birthday cum I love you wish on her blog. Sweet!

We had planned to go to escape theme park so since it's in the east, I decided to go and collect my half-marathon race pack at Expo first and she accompanied me.

When we met, she wished me happy birthday and handed me my present. It was wrapped in a I love you wrapper and when I opened the wrapper it was a box with heart shapes on the outside. Sweet!



I didn't get to open the box until after I've collected the race pack which was 2 hours later. The collection was a draggy process and I was quite impatient at times. Luckily she was there to make me feel better. =)

When I finally opened the box, inside was a pair of Adidas running shorts which I had wanted to get for some time but didn't because it's too expensive. =P
Other than the pair of shorts was a heart shape on which she wrote "Watson & Ching".
Sweet, sweet, sweet!!!

Now the sweetest part.... she made sandwiches for me! Mock meat patties with pickles sandwiches and egg mayo sandwiches which we ate for lunch. They are so delicious!!!!! Especially the one with pickles.

After that we went to escape theme park and that is where things started going wrong. Once we entered the park, it started to rain and the rain got heavier and heavier by the minute. We had no choice but to go for a walk at E-hub! where there was nothing much either. So we went to Mr Bean to ate glutinous rice balls. It was nice and sweet. But too bad we had no "kamcheng" to eat from. Haha.

The rain never stopped and at around 5.30pm, we decided enough was enough. Luckily our tickets were revalidated due to the bad weather and we can go back within 3 months' time. So we left and had ice-cream at Swensens at White Sands because I had a voucher. She had a banana split and I had a Firehouse Happy Birthday, just for the occassion. =)

After that, she bought a shawl at a shop near Pasir Ris MRT before we headed for dinner at Jurong Point. After dinner, she came to my home where my parents had bought a durian cake and I cut the cake with all my loved ones around me. My parents, my dear Wan Ching and my beloved Chippy. I feel so fortunate!!! At the same time, we were watching 小娘惹 and tonight's episode was sad because both 菊香 and her husband died.

The end of the show marks the end of a day made wonderful by a wonderful person despite the rain trying to dampen our spirits. Thank you Ching for making the journey from Woodlands to Pasir Ris and to Boon Lay and back to Woodlands again. You must be really tired. Thank you for everything you have done for me today: your gifts, your sandwiches, your company. I really appreciate it very much.

I LOVE YOU!!!!!

The other gift I received was a Burberry belt from my sister sent all the way from Japan, thanks to her too!
