Mr Boyfriend is 24!
Celebrated Mr Boyfriend's 24th last weekend. It was a pretty simple and cozy celebration. He even helped in making his own cake! Yes, I made a cake for him. A tiramisu. It's the first time I 'baked' for his birthday and the first time I cooked a full dinner with him - completed with soup, vege and meat. Not really that heavenly tasting, but still passable and he ate quite alot of the dishes. *touched*

Bought him for massage too! Which was his first full body massage locally. =) Nothing amazing, but something that hopefully he will remembers, given his lousy memory.

Hmm... What else...

Altec aka boyfriend's bao bei came over for a little surprise and cake cutting session. Then we popped over to JP for movie. Johnny English was super FUNNY!!!!

Actual day birthday lunch was at Ma Mansion. A wonderful meal that we both enjoyed. The day ended with prawn fishing with Altec.

Simple right? We did a number of stuffs, but nothing amazing. But hope Mr Boyfriend enjoyed his 24th still. =)

Dar, hope you truly like the small little celebration that I planned for you.

I promised you that I will not spend too much on your birthday and I kept my promise! =) These are the littl stuffs I had always wanted to do for you.

Though the dishes were not that great, they are cooked with love.

Though the cake was not perfect, I was thinking about you while making it.

Though the lunch was not the atas place I initially wanted to bring you to, I know it's still a place that you will enjoy.

It's your special little day.

And I'm glad that you are born.

*loves*

Our family photo rarely appear here. So here we go...

Taken at Tung Lok. Went there twice in a short span of a month! Can you believe it?

First time was for my promotion. Yes, for those that hadn't heard the news, I had recently gotten promoted. It had been a few months actually, but only recently I got settled down and feel comfortable with the new title and job.

Second time was purely to make use of the voucher before it expired!

Both time, we had such a hearty meal! Spending a good 2 hours there and fill our stomach with good quality tasty food.

And of course, here's US. =D


Boyfriend had recently started school and doing his assignment with all his hard. Never know he can be so hardworking! And its only now that I know how bored he is when I was rushing my assignments. Poor boyfriend. Having to put up with me for the past two years. Now its my turn. Gonna find some stuffs to occupy myself with when he's studying.

I'm duper super happy today. Its like a heavy stone had been lifted off my chest.

Seriously.

For the past 4 months, everyone had been working very hard. And the sudden change in job scope and responsibility for me was a tough switch. It was a good chance - like everyone who knew what happened had told me. A good chance for me to advance.

Initially it was really horrible + terrible. I lost 2 to 3kg in a week or so. Not able to stomach any meals. Life-less - work, home, work, home. It was pretty bad.

BUT! Good news! I can bravely say now I SURVIVED! Though not the best. Still lots to learn. But others are accepting this inexperience me. The toughest had past. There's still many catching up to do, many things to learn. But at least for now, this introduction chapter of this new responsibility of mine had come to an end. A brand new chapter is starting.

Many a times, I had wanted to quit the job. A pay cut is fine. Since my increment in pay is not that much either. I'm glad I didn't give up.

My previous GM once told me - he quit one of his job previously as he wanted to run away from a problem he faced, but in his next job, he faced the same issue again. So lesson learnt - don't run away from the problem. Face it. Be brave. Thick skin. Then you will grow stronger. And everything will be OK!

Everyone Jia You together ba!!!!

Thanks for all the help. It won't be possible without the people around me.

thanks boyfriend.

you are the best.
