Had a mini birthday celebration with family and relatives at Durty Nellys Irish Pub on the 9th July afternoon. Place was cozy and very little people because not much people will go to a pub for lunch.
My mom's cousin bought "me" balloons as props for photo taking session. You can see the balloons in almost all the photos! Dragged bf along for my birthday celebration and I think he got bored. I'll be super scared if I was to meet his parents and relatives. To be honest, I have not met his family yet!
Received almost all ang baos for presents.
My mom's cousin that's staying in Hong Kong. Bf loves HK because of all the good food there.
My mom's cousin that came back from Amsterdam. Visited Amsterdam twice and for the 1st time, I was so sick there, I nearly died! Second time was much better because it wasn't really that cold yet.
Baby Amelia is so cute!
My aunt, aunt's husband and cousin. Used to often go their house in the past after church to play. Dad and grandparents will be playing mahjong and we'll be playing hide and seek, ps3 and stuff that kids played. It's really really fun and happy in the past.
Poor bf seems so bored and lonely!
Parents and sis. The short family!
Love my pretty dress that day, it's pink dress with white polka dots!
Pretty colourful balloons, though I don't really like minni mouse.
Mom prepared door gifts for guests and so I have to give them out.
Mom's aunt that cooks really awesome food!
My mom's cousin that came back from Amsterdam gave me a custom-made birthday card!
The door gift, bf's one is still at my house.
It's FOOD time! Didn't try the salad because I have some different type of salad with my main course, wasn't nice of course. Should have tried some salad because it looked nice!
My main course was the first to arrive. It turned cold when I ate it because I was busy taking photos of other people's food. Wasn't really nice when I had it. Ham and cheese sandwich, as usual, I gave my egg to bf because I dislike eating egg nowadays.
My cousin with "rotten" nose and legs. How sweet, she gave me a bouquet of roses, a balloon and ang bao, even bf didn't gave me any flowers!
Forgot what was this, seems pretty good.
I think it's grilled salmon here, I love salmon, raw or cook.
Beef steak, I like beef steak too. But I don't eat too raw because I dislike tasting the blood taste.
This is roasted beef I guess, looks yummy.
My aunt brought special ingredient for lunch, it's the red chilli! Wouldn't it tasted weird with western food?
Poor bf got bored and decided to build the building.
Bf had this but I forgot what was it. He said it wasn't really that nice.
Very obvious to what this was isn't it?
Dad had curry but it's weird that a western place served Indian food.
Mini sausages, I wondered if it'll be full enough.
Ang bao again from mom's cousin.
Don't baby titus looked like Zhen Guo Cheng?
My awesome panda birthday cake! Saw it from emicake and I just had to order it!
"My fist is hunger for justice".
Photo taking session again with the cake. Awkward because I have to keep smiling for photos. Don't know why this photo seems grainy.
My dad was suggesting for both bf and I to hold the knife together but it seems like a wedding, so I forbid him to touch the knife :)
Wanted to book a chalet for my celebration with family and relatives but it was too last minute and every chalet was fully booked. Better plan my celebration in advance next time. Next big day will be 30th birthday I guess.
Come to think of it, I'm an adult now but that doesn't mean I have to get myself drunk and party like shit. I don't think I'll ever let myself get drunk because I don't want to get hangover and puke everywhere. The feeling of wanting to puke is horrible because I always felt it when I'm not feeling well. I also dislike the feeling of dizziness because it's like I'm going to faint anytime. Will cherish being 21 because soon enough, I'll be 22, 23, 24 and so on.
Will blog about my Phuket trip soon.
