Ultra grateful

This year’s celebration felt a bit off cos we did a belated one. Boy was facing his Maths paper exactly on his actual birthday so he wanted a belated one. 
But Alhamdulillah. 
Food portion was only just nice not like a lot of balance.
We were so lazy to spend over $100 for cake and delivery so we ordered one from the hood bakery instead. 
And self collection too. 


Alhamdulillah too his gifts were mostly so functional. 
There’s more such as his fave pillow. I wanted so much to get him a smaller water bottle which his cousin gotten for him! Got hikmah eh cos I didn’t have time to grab him one.
And that personalised notebook? ❤️
Defo gonna steal his charmera without a doubt. 


Grateful for his monetary gifts as well.
May Allah reward the givers with alot lot lot more than what they gave. Amin. 
 

This was our first time ordering from Four Seasons.
Smooth transaction. 


So touched that the niece prepared these for the party. 
Eh I only had one seh. Didn’t even get to try the vanilla one. 


And his themeless bday cake.
Very affordable and tasted light. 


And I can’t believe I’ve forgotten what last yr goodie bag looked like. So this is proof of this year’s and also not the completed version. I included Popo muruku and corn snack as well. Also did a quiz for the guests and had to prep really cheap prizes for that. Heh.

Unexpected gifts

 His bday week still going strong.
Uncle Yan and family sent this over on a Sunday night where the 3 of us almost already in lala land.
Heard the door bell and then the husb jolted awake saying someone’s at the door. 
And all 3 of us went to the door to find this ice cream cake sitting on our shoe rack. 


He personally delivered it with the lil one. 🥺
And we all missed them. 


When the husb bff asked me to choose which mofusand I want, he gave this cutie pooh filled with durian mooncakes as well! Now what can I fill this one with? 


Prolly his last Children’s day gifts.
Surprised at the kind of presies P6 got.
He’s so happy getting that deformed car from his form teacher and the other form teacher wrote names and wishes individually to the students. Can’t help singing Semoga Bahagia in our own rendition that goes ‘Sama-sama maju ke hadapan, pandai cari perempuan…’ 😬


It was a hard day trying to get Grab/ Tada so we crossed the road to the HDB area and saw this one. Eh two of them!


I don’t appreciate or get it when people gave hp as gifts because u know it’s only gg to last for a yr or two. So I’ve nvr asked him for hp but he will always gets new one for me when my contract’s up. And he’s been getting me Kate Spade casings since 2011. ❤️

What are the odds?


 Yeah what are the odds that the cousin asking you out cos he won a $288 ticket to a concert? I don’t remember my last concert, was it BSB back in 2017? That’s almost 10 years ago.
It was also my first time watching at Star Vista.
Thankfully, bro volunteered to send us home. Heh. 


I don’t know lah prolly my jodoh with Abg Nuar very strong cos the last time also I kena ‘forced’ to meet him.
One on one pulak too. And what are the odds that he mentioned my name out! Of cos la not referring to me specifically!
I secretly been wanting to see Ziana Zain perform cos some of her songs just hit through my emo side. 
Eh but she less kening now but instead everytime she tarik, she bent backforwards. Almost 90 deg lor. 
How cute though that on the last song, Syamel and Ernie’s daughter joined them, dancing energetically at close to 11pm. Hyper ye. Aunty da kebil2 way passed my bedtime. 


She only had 2 baju on and this one weighed 14kg.
Her shoes damn high pls for someone who’s 58.
The most tiring part for them was the kuar masuk stage. 😂
And i am so glad that this concert was not abt the audience singing, them 4 yg singing habis-habisan and although handphones were allowed, I didn’t see many hp up all the time.  So it really brought me back to real concerts in the 90s where the artists wld be the ones singing not the ones next to you. 


He so slim or what. And Ziana said he’s a perfectionist. 
Hmmmmmm. And what are the odds cos the bff came too and guess where she was seated? Of thousands of seats she was at the same row just 5 seats away. 
Another jodoh super kuat?
And dia pi dating ehhhhhhhhhhhh! 
Bestnye!
