Attended Kelly's 21st birthday on Sat and felt old, haha. Me and my colleagues were the oldest I suppose. It was so sweet to see so many of her friends turn up to celebrate her birthday. To be honest, I kindda envy her. I did not have a celebration when it was my 21st birthday mainly because I chose to spend the money on a holiday in Bintan instead and my family had no intention to celebrate for me at all.
In fact, they didn't even wish me Happy Birthday on the actual day, no ang bao, no gifts and no "key". I would be lying to say I was not affected and all I got from my mum that day was scolding, complaints etc.
All my life I have been seeking for her approval to do any and everything, for her love, for her acceptance. But I have never succeeded and she only remembers me when she needs favors or "kaching" from me.
I love surprises and giving people surprises. The feeling is indescribable and its heart warming when friends/family actually take the effort to plan and make it happen. Its kindda childish and impossible, but I have always dreamt that maybe someday there will a surprise party for me or something similar, lol. Its just a dream lah afterall. I have a few great gal pals whom I love and happy enough that they remember my birthday every year. =) Especially dear MeiL babe, who always brings back a souvenir for me whenever she travels for work or holiday, listens to me when I have problems and always dishes out compliments to me. =p
K, I think I am digressing. But hey, its a random post, lalala... Think I kindda going haywire cos I'm kindda pissed off now with somethings and someone since yesterday. Shall not blog about it here since its about work and make my blood boil only. Arghz.
Anyway, me and Hubby went to Botak Jones for lunch. They have a branch now at Bedok, don't have to travel so far liao! But other than the Jalapenos, the main courses were kindda disappointing. =( Hubby ordered the steak and asked it to be medium rare, but it turned out to be medium-well cooked. The waitress did ask him to check if the steak was ok. So Hubby told her that but when she offered to changed, he say its ok. Duhz... Since you complain le, might as well change loh. I mean though its coffeeshop but since they are the ones to ask and offer, might as well right? Then while he eat, he was complaining to me, faintz.
Must try: STUFFED JALAPENOS (CHILLIS) - These are hot! These are good! I guess that makes them Good ‘n Hot. We stuff Mexican Jalapenos (pronounced halapenyo) with real mozzarella cheese, cover them with Japanese bread crumbs and fry them until the cheese is nice and gooie. (Quoted from their website)
Here's the pics of what we had, yum yum.
STUFFED JALAPENOS (CHILLIS) - $7.00 (Its really spicy!)

See how cheesy it is~

Seeing this makes me drool...

AUSTRALIAN RIBEYE STEAK - $21.00 (300gm)

CAJUN CHICKEN - $7.50 (Regular)
