I am officially 20 now! And one year closer to magical age of 21, one year closer to Genting Casino! (shhh, I'm not a gambler LOL) Okay, back to topic, I celebrated my birthday with my family and of course him this year. I was so satisfied with this year's birthday celebration yet felt kinda sad that unable to celebrate with my sisters and friends. I miss them. :'(
Originally planned to have family dinner for my birthday but my father was outstation during that time! How sad. However, me and my family still managed to have a small celebration in our home. I just not that happy because of my father not here with me for my birthday. Really bad timing huh! Still thanks to my mother who bought me my favorite cheese cake and my brothers who sang me a birthday song! =)
At here, I would like to thanks my mummy who brought me to this world and raising me, teaching me attentively. Without her suffers of gave birth, I won't be able to celebrated 20 years of birthday with so much joys. Mother love is always a great love. I love you mummy.
Ohhh, forgot to mention that my birthday celebration with my family was on 6 Nov 2012, which is my birthday-eve. The reason why my family helped me celebrated my birthday earlier is because I had class on the next day and I had to go back to my hostel.
But, I never attended the class lol. My boyfie said he had a whole day plan for me, and he afraid that I had no time to attend my evening class. Whatever, I'm the big boss of the day, so, let's absent!
7th Nov 2012, we went out to took our breakfast around 9 something I guessed. Well, clearly that he never included the breakfast in his birthday celebration plan so we just had McDonald breakfasts at random. After that, we rushed back and got ourselves prepared due to he said we were running out of time. I was like wtf, what is his plan actually? Why a big boss had to rush in her birthday aka big day? Seriously my brain was full of question marks during that day. Well, I'm dislike the feeling of being the one who don't know anything but others did. But still, I knew he wanted to give a surprise so I should just follow his plan. =)
Selca in the car while we rushing to Midvalley.
Why Midvalley? Because it is part of my birthday celebration, which is a movie dating! He chose the movie "Skyfall: 007" and bought a couple seat, I do love couple seat because it is so much comfortable than normal seat. Back to the movie, Skyfall actually is a nice movie but the duration of the movie was a bit long, I was drank a lot of water while watching the movie, so I guessed you guys should know what's happened next...YES, I'm in the urgency of pee for around an hour till the movie was ended, so do him.
I was wondering why this James Bond movie named "Skyfall"...Well, now I know why.
(I don't want become a spoiler, so for whose never watch, go check it out, it worth the price.)
After the movie, we never shopping in Midvalley. Instead, we went to KLCC, according to his plan. His stomach was not feeling well when we were on the way going to there, he claimed that it was because he's too hungry and I was so worried! I had experienced stomach cramp before so I know how it feel like. I was completely lack of strength to hold the steering and drive during that time. But he still managed to drive and reach our destination cool and steadily. So pity of him.
I was keep thinking that we would just have a casual high tea session in KLCC but...yeah...He did wow me 99 this time. I was keep asking where we going? What you want to eat? LIKE A IDIOT. At the end I just gave up and following his step to his secret plan of high tea session. When we reached the front door of Mandarin Oriental KL, I was totally freak out. I was keep thinking "Are you kidding me?" and "It will be a fucking expensive high tea!" in my mind LOL.
Lounge on the Park @ Mandarin Oriental KL
I did impressed by their environment and atmosphere, luxury yet leisurely. The afternoon tea here is available from 2.30pm to 6pm daily. There are two afternoon teas to choose from, The Royal English Afternoon Tea and Holger Deh Chocolate Afternoon Tea. I was quite blur and don't know what to ordered so I just passed the order part and let him to decided. He ordered two different sets of afternoon tea, like I mentioned above, the Royal English and Holger Deh Chocolate.
Personally, I think both are nice, but I still prefer the chocolate afternoon tea simply because I am chocoholic. As for the tea selection, his choice is peppermint tea and mine is jasmine tea.
Holger Deh Chocolate Afternoon Tea
Royal English Afternoon Tea
The scones that come with the Royal English afternoon tea, served with clotted cream, and homemade strawberry jam, orange jam and lemon curd.
Cambridge burnt cream, I like the smooth texture!
Jasmine tea x Hazelnut macaron
I don't know what it named and I not ever got a bite of it due to he said that it tasted weird.
A free marble cheese cake for the birthday girl!
Candid shot by me!
Candid shot by him!
Outfit of the day: H&M black dress
After high tea session, we planned on have a walk in KLCC but clearly we have no mood to do shopping during my birthday! Consider the peak hour of traffic jam was around, so we went off ealier and heading to his next destination.
Selca while stuck in the car because of the traffic jam.
Our mouth shape are same! LMAO
I'm not hate to stuck in the traffic jam when I'm not the driver HAHA,
because I can always selca. WHATEVER.
He was a bit pissed off because of his smartphone GPS - Waze during that time because the GPS keep on disconnected and lose the location for no reason. When we on our way to the place for dinner, his baby GPS keeps lose signal and I can see and tell that he was so frustrated. I asked him whether he need my help or not, and he almost want to burst out his secret dining place! HAHAHA!
But still, we reached the place safe and sound. To be honest, I do know where he's gonna bring me to before we reached. Sorry my dear, I'm just too smart. But still, I'm surprised of your persistence of bringing me to SOULed OUT. For your information, he promised me to brought me to SOULed OUT for my birthday dinner last year but we changed to TAO Japanese Buffet last minute due to he knew that I always a Japanese foods-addicted. I'm so thankful that finally my birthday can be something different, other than sashimi and sushi.
For your information, He did booking for the table early before my birthday and special required for second floor table. I do love the second floor atmosphere, it's more quite and comfort compare to the lower floor. I don't like to have my birthday dinner in a open and noisy area and seems like he know my mind very well. I like the small details he noticed and the arrangement.
We were so fulled because of the afternoon tea. Thus, we just ordered the drinks and small bite and chilled for awhile before we ordered our main course again.
Mint Royale Mocktail (Alcohol-free drink) for me and Kilkenny beer for him
I absolutely love my drink of the night. It is a mix of Fresh Mint Leaves,Fresh Lime Wedges, Mint Syrup, Fresh Green Apple Juice and tasted so good and smooth. As for the Kilkenny, He said it was nice but for me I still prefer Hoegaarden.
Cheese nachos is something that goes really well with beer. The chewy cheese topped with thin slices of bacon goes really well with the thin, crispy nachos and it makes me non stop eating even I'm fulled. The size of SOULed OUT's cheese nachos is too large for couple, I think it is a perfect dish for a bunch of friends while gossiping or watching a match of football.
Fuck face of boyfie
The very cute desk lamp
Go away Kilkenny, mocktail tastes much more nicer than you.
While waiting for our stomach to digest, we played a mini game named "Would You Rather". We had came out with a lot of difficult questions and it is so hilarious when watching him struggle between two choices HAHAHA. However, this game proved that there is always a difference between man and woman, especially their mindset. What we can do is accept the fact and communicate with each other with a lot of patience to kick off the barrier between man and woman. We do had a open heart conversation on that night and I'm glad that we did that. I always love this kind of conversation, because it can helps us to know each other more and brings us closer than before.
After awhile, we decided to ordered our main course. Originally, he wanted to ordered a lamp chop for himself and an Australian Tenderloin for me. But thanks to the giant size nachos, we thought that it is hard for us to finish that much. So we changed our mind, just a Australian Tenderloin would be perfect.
Overall, the tenderloin was delicious and the texture was so freaking smooth and tender. The sidelines was not bad too, but nothing to rave about. I'm a beef-lover so my focus will only goes to the tenderloin HAHA.
After finish the main course, both of us were freaking full and I told to not ordered anymore. But in a short while, he told me that he need to go pee and went down. It was quite a long time for a guy to pee, but during that time, I did not suspect anything. How silly I am.
In a while after he backed to his seat, a waiter came approach us with SOULed OUT's famous Lava Cake in his hands. When I saw the smile on his face, I was totally awake of the situation. He went down not only for his peeing purpose but also prepared of this. For that moment, I was really touching, from the bottom of my heart. He is not good in prepared such surprise event but still did it for me.
Lava Cake, a must-try dessert of SOULed OUT.
Both of my boyfie and the waiter sang me a birthday song loudly. Well, it is a bit embarrassing but I'm still very pleased and enjoyed he sang me the song. The waiter helped us to captured down the photo of the night. Spot the crown on my head, the waiter put it on my head without asking LOL.
The present from him was late for one day due to he bought it from a shipper and it takes time to send by post. He even DIY a birthday card and gave it to me with the present. For a guy who willing to spend time and DIY something for his girlfriend, it is really touch even it just a small thing.
Fred Perry Tote bag and the handmade birthday card by love one.
At here, I would like to thanks my hubby boy for prepared so much beforehand. I knew that he gave a lot of effort into these preparation and it is not easy to prepared your loved one important event. I appreciate what you have done for me, it's not about the day, it's about the moments we spent together. I love you my dear. And once again, thank you.
I always your November baby.
