I am gonna get into how I feel about today later. I shall first say what I did! But no, nothing special or extraordinary happened today.
I wanted to begin my day with a cup of Starbucks but I was 15 minutes late to work! So I skipped coffee! (I was also in an urgent need to rush to the washroom when I was on the LRT, ironically) Well on the train I received a couple of very very endearing messages from my friends! Love you all so so much! I was smiling the whole time! As I reached office and began the usual stuff, messages came in once in a while, and they did nothing to stop my widening smile. Luckily there was a cubicle which sort of blocked my colleagues' view. Once again, thank you so much to you who sent me birthday messages! I really really, from the bottom of my heart, appreciate all of your messages!
A very nice colleague treated me to CoolBlog.

Something like Chatime la. I had Hong Kong Milk Tea. It's not bad! A tad bit, just tiny bit, too sweet. It's still within my acceptable range though. Really love my colleagues! Oh and my boss treated me to Manhattan Fish Market last Thursday. Won't over forget that I am so lucky to be surrounded by such great people!
My mom prepared an extremely HUGE lunch box for me. Her recipe I suppose. *smug* Spaghetti!

With eggs, vegetables, hot dog (it's extremely nice!), meat, carrot stripes. Extremely nice! Love my mom's cooking. Love her lovely lunchbox. But, love her more!
And lunchbox is not lame okay? It's filled with lots of love!
Well that's all that I had during working hours. And Adele's "Rumour Has It" was playing itself in my head all the time, with different versions by Katharine McPhee (from Smash) and Mathai (from The Voice Season 2). So tempted to go on Youtube!
After work, I chose to have dinner with my parents. All of my brothers were busy. So it's only my parents and I. We went to Sakae Sushi at Leisure Mall. I realize that this decision sounds slightly lame. The meal was unexpectedly, and pleasantly, surprising! My mother had Chicken Shiogayaki Don, which was basically chicken with sweet sauce and rice. She liked it a lot. My dad too. But I found it quite similar some common Chinese cuisine. My dad had some Salmon. I think it's Salmon Teriyaki. It's really really nice! Love it a lot! My parents too! It's so flavorful! Not too sweet. And the fish was fresh, nicely grilled. Extremely nice! Would recommend it! And I had a set of sushi meant for 3 pax!
After that, we added a salad, Sakae Salad.
EXTREMELY NICE TOO! It's like Lou Sang. We had to pour the plum dressing on to the dishes and mix them together. I really like this one. This was really surprising! Haha I think I am too easily pleased. Anyway try this if you have the chance!
And everything totaled up to RM70+. At least we really had a good time. And I had a good time ogling checking out stealing glances at an extremely cute infant WHO SMILED AT ME WHEN I SMILED AT HIM! Side note : I really love babies! Oh and I had a good time because the waitress who served us was quite cute. And she was able to explain the dishes to us, AND CONVINCED MY MOM TO CHOOSE THAT CHICKEN DISH, which is, to me, a huge accomplishment! Oh and I asked her whether birthday boys / girls get special treatment in Sakae. Sadly, no! ):
And that's all!
Now about how I feel. I definitely enjoyed my day. I wish to share my happiness with everyone! I know of a friend who is so sad to the extend of tearing. ): I am not sure if you will read this but if you do, DON'T CRY KAY LOL! And I am really really touched to receive calls and messages from all of you. I really am. Every year without fail. Even friends from another country. I was super stunned and surprised and happy to receive your message! Even friends whom I never thought would remember. From friends whom I used to be super close with. From friends whom I had special memories with. Friends who had been with me through thick and thin. Friends who aren't only friends, but family (or daughters) too. All of you, without fail! At the sight of your names on my phone, tonnes of memories came flashing back in my mind. Miss you all. Love you all. You all once, and still do, played an important in my life. And your remembering and messaging me, really means a lot to me. So I want to, for the don't know how many times, sincerely thank you! LOVE YOU ALL!
