Thanks to my lovely girl-mate for making this possible... I felt touched. For years and years, I have had a couple of surprises. But the best one is always done with such sincerity that makes me swelling up with tears. FAB 4 is left with 2 and soon only 1 here in Singapore. Everyone is everywhere! I celebrated my birthday with Syndy, just supposedly a decent dinner and maybe a drink (which didn't come true).
But hey, it was a great time. Not only have we got the Tiramisu cake ON THE HOUSE, the jukebox was playing the BIRTHDAY SONG, the service crews were singing me the birthday song, everyone else in the restaurant stared in wonder and clapped for me... as the waiter put down the cake lit with a candle right in front of me, I was speechless... blushing... in fact I almost cried in joy!
(Actually it felt a bit similiar to the time when I left my previous job and people do the singing, only that it wasn't this emotional... I wonder if I've a soft spot for people singing for me!!)
This is one of my best birthday celebration in recent years...
p.s: I didn't wish for anything when I blew the candle...
p.p.s: Something I'm very pleased about is getting praises quite often these few days when I practise my german with the native speakers. Not that it makes my ego bigger... but I feel more motivated to keep it going... to keep on learning, using and hopefully speaking... danke, danke!!
