I spent the morning of my birthday making pancakes for breakfast for the family,
Which was upon their request,can you imagine that..?? And here i was expecting my own breakfast in bed..oh well tough luck :(

Anyways friday had been a low-key affair for me but nonetheless very meaningful.
No there wasnt any surprise or a big bang celebration. My first half of the day was with the family. Then later in the evening i had a date. Yeps i had a date, but nothing of the romantic sort (though that could had been wonderful..sigh..), it was a date with someone i care and love for almost a decade. It could not have been more special then it was that night. Thank you Elfy for meeting me despite the exhaustion and weariness of having a busy day at work, just to see the same old face heh.

Yes so you were in a hurry that you had forgotten to bring my birthday gift with you but your thoughtfulness won me over babe! Presenting me a flower to compensate your forgetfulness was just too sweet, and the fact that you smother me with plenty of kisses and a big hug as well as holding hands afterwards were attracting too much attention from stangers that could only summarise one thing when they looked at us! But who cares, i was over the moon! Just because i adore what was given to me and that it was irony the flower actually matches my top!?

So we simply spent the night wandering around town (believe it or not its been awhile since ive been to Orchard)looking through the latest collections of what fashion has to offer, sitting together on one bench in Borders each indulging themselves with their own personal interest, Elfy lost herself browsing through fashion and arts books while i submerged myself in photography books.
And then it was a simple dinner at Pastamania, we did the usual bonding and exchanging opinions on certain things. I know,to some this sounds kinda boring and lame way to celebrate your bithday but hey i beg to differ, i believed Elfy had given me a wonderful gift without realising it. She had given me quality time to spend it with her. You dont know how rare it has been for us to meet nowadays. We parted with our friendship somehow strengthen, having much respect for one another as well as the love for our friendship still pretty much intact.

What moved me most was when she replied to my sms which express my gratefulness to her for being there for me that night, she said it was her utmost pleasure and that she loves our friendship so much that no matter how far away we will be from each other,i'll still be in her mind wishing for my well being. Now how often can one receives messages with much sincerity..?Well i did!

Once again, i would like to say my gratitude towards you for being a friend who will always be there for me, rain or shine. I love you much woman!

Im sorry if this entry sounds very mushy to your liking. But this entry is dedicated towards her and telling her exactly how much she means to me is not to be taken lightly especially after all the things she had done and stood by me all these years.





p/s: thanks to all for the birthday wishes that kept streaming in throughout the day, the fact that i was in your thoughts made my day a bit more beautiful than usual :)
