You (all) make growing older so much more bearable

My birthday is over by one week now.

and it's like my birthday is celebrated over one week.

It's one of the most wonderful birthday i had in all my life.

I am a food lover by nature and the whole week, i have been eating and eating and eating.

not only eating but eating good food that i dun usually get to eat.

it's the best way to celebrate my birthday. always!

missus brought me to a jap restaurant at vivo city.

i was impressed with the decor of the place the moment i stepped into the restaurant. even the menu and the table decor is spared.

the food they served is really gastronomical. it seriously is crazily good.
the maki is calling out for me to eat it.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
their food presentation is also a thumbs up.
sashimi is one of my fav jap dishes. we reordered sashimi so many times.

tempura prawns, crispy and yummy....the seafood they served are generous and fresh.

if all these did not make you drool, i wonder what will....

and i forgot to mentioned, we had ala carte buffet...so you can order as much as you want.

the sky slowly darkens....and it's becoming really romantic for the 2 of us.

finally, the night falls and we took a walk along the walkways outside vivo city.

quality time spent with missus cannot be compromised.

the next day, we went to eat good food again....

this time it's at chomp chomp. a cheaper alternative of good food.

and of course not forgetting out favourite "king"

DURIANS...freshly opened.

On friday, my dad had some dinner function at a restaurant in bukit merah...

so the whole family went there except my sister who had to do her homework.

it's eat eat eat again. it's delicious albeit it's middle class food.

no complains man.

and yesterday....

i had a little celebration with my brothers. we ate zhi char at a kopitiam.

it's been a while since all of us sat together to talk cock sing song. it was a good night for all of us.

Thank you all for being there to grow old with me. with you guys around, it's makes growing older so much more bearable.

there are people whom i have yet to celebrate my birthday with. i hope we can meet up soon man.

cheers

I took more than 300 shots of the fireworks alone...

Fireworks are simply magical.....my third fireworks fest...and it's getting better and better everytime.

And watching it with my one love adds value to it this year.

I didn't manage to say it to you under those fireworks and hopefully this makes up to it..

"I love you!"

we left soon after the crowd clears up.

Up up and away

Wah hahaha.......

So many good things happen to me last week.

like i always say....when i go down, i will climb back up again. so last week was an "up" week.

Firstly, the weather had turned for the better.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
look at the sky!! perfect weather for an outing.

Secondly, i sent a letter to seng kang hdb branch to ask them to waive off my fine. This was their reply.

We refer to your email of 28 Jul 2007.

We wish to inform you that motorists including season parking ticket holders are required to park their vehicles in designated car park lots.

On 25 Jul 2007 at 8.50am, your vehicle was found parked other than in the designated parking lot in the multi-storey car park no.SK42 (Blk 304 Anchorvale Link). Hence, the above notice was issued for the infringement.

We have considered your case. We will exercise leniency in this instance and waive the above notice. We seek your cooperation to comply with the parking regulations at all times. Please ignore any computer notice / request which you may receive from the Car Parks Section for this parking offence.

now, it's parking warden 3 - 1 Kenny

Screw parking wardens....my hatred for them is deep founded.

Meeting up with the girlfriend is always a thing that i look forward to. I am working 6 days a week and she is always busy. but last week, we met up to watch the simpsons at the cathay.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
we had ya kun before the show.

can come here to see fireworks during national day and firework fest, but it will be abit far.

Simpsons was freaking funny...girlfriend was more amused by me than by the show.

she was always more amused by me than by the show. 2 weeks back when we went on a double date with roger and karmene, we were watching knocked up. hahaha....it was a freaking funny show too. there was a conversation between 2 friends that goes like this.

A: i just shave my pubs in the toilet
B: why do you have to shave in the toilet? the last time you shaved, and i shat, my shit looks like a stuffed toy.

hahahaaaaa....i couldn't stop laughing at that part. even after the movie i was still laughing with roger in the toilet. i had problem peeing while laughing.

i think i am easily tickled. period.

After the movie, we went to meet up with my brothers to celebrate andrew's birthday. Andrew treated all of us to sakura international buffet. i tell you, the food there is good. i had so much sashimi i think i ate 1 whole salmon.

at the end of the dinner, this was what is left... we are freaking big eaters.

i think if we had come more often, sakura is going bust.

after dinner, we decided to go for bowling session at yishun safra.

joshua had a lorry to "transport" all of us there.
