Bday Gift #14

This is my second watch for my birthday. SB said she had never seen me wear a black vintage watch before and so gave me one.

It is a smart looking watch.

Bday Gift #13

This is really a surprised gift from a group of my colleagues. Didn't expect them to buy me anything, I'm really grateful for their gift. God bless them!

Bday Gift #12

My boss gave me this for my birthday.

It is dark chocolate and I loved it's bitter citrus taste.

Bday gift #11

Met up with Cheri and she passed me this bday gift. It's like a traveling journal kit. There are note books for you to write your journal, pockets for you to insert name cards, a money pouch for currencies and also a photo album for you to paste your Polaroid photos.

I'm definitely going to use it for my coming Japan trip.

Bday celebration #3

Chee San bought me bday lunch yesterday. For more than a decade, every year, without fail he will buy me bday meal. I knew him from my trip to Silk Road in 1997. He is really very kind and sweet to remember my bday. Thanks so my bro!

Bday gift #10

还记得以前过生日的时候,祖母都会在我生日那天弄两粒红鸡蛋给我吃。实际的意义我不清楚。好久没有吃红鸡蛋了,今年有红鸡蛋吃,太开心了!真的,让我想起童年的时光。

Bday gift #9

I remembered we had tea in Paris at Laduree, enjoying the array of macaroons. The sweet macaroons definitely went well with the afternoon tea. It is such a surprise that I'm able to enjoy Laduree macaroons in Singapore.

Bday gift #8

Hmm only my father's generation would buy such a gift. Haha! It's definitely a gift that I'll keep for a life time, since I can't spend those coins.

Bday gift #7

A simple but lovely watch to remind me that I'm running out of time. Will have to constantly remind myself to count my blessings and to be kind to others. Must appreciate our friends and family members. I think I'll need strength from God. Amen!

Bday gift #6

What lovely cupcakes, really reluctant to eat them. Thanks to Sally who is really a great baker. 真舍不得吃
