Happy 25th, Sayang!

Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to Sayang, Happy Birthday to you!!

I've been 'irritating' him with this song the whole day.. Hehe... We both took leave today and went to BU to watch Catwoman. Not very interesting movie though, despite Halle Berry and her sexy leather outfit. Then we went to Times Square later in the afternoon. We were to meet up with Stan, Helen, Sean and Jache for karaoke + buffet dinner at Neway. So we walked around, had hot dogs from DQ Orange Juice and 1901, and oh, even scouted for a thick cardigan for me coz sayang said that it's freezing cold in Neway. In the end, I got myself a dark blue, Mickey Mouse fleece from Winter Time. Hehehe... At least I can use it in the office, since the R&D room is practically like an ice box!

Then we headed for Neway. The buffet dinner was considerably ok, just that we spent most of the time selecting songs and having fun, so we didn't really gobble a lot. Hehe.. Everyone had fun, I guess and I hope! Especially when we sang the Birthday song to sayang, Sean and Stan sang the Chinese version - something about 'may you change car every year, may you change house every year, pay loans until you die'. Haha.. Despite the song selections are mostly Chinese ones, I don't mind going there again. This time, I'm gonna eat a lot! The pasta salad's not bad actually.. Yum yum...

By about 11pm, sayang & I left to meet up with 2 of his colleagues, Mr. Tan and Belinda at Wow Wow Cafe in Plaza Damas. It's exactly the same one as in New Taman Sea. Except that I preferred the atmosphere in Plaza Damas, coz it's more of an open-aired concept (the one in NTS is dark and gloomy). And I liked the way the singers did their song renditions, in acoustic guitar style. It made me feel very relaxed listening to them sing and strumming the guitar. And of course, the song requests like 'Hoi Fut Tin Hong', 'Kau Ilhamku' and 'Wonderful Tonight' helped just as much. Had a very good time there. Even suggested to sayang that we go there for all our yum char sessions. Hehe...

Hopefully he had a great 25th birthday. Quarter-of-a-century old... And I'm gonna be in that category in less than 4 months time. *Gasp* Anyway, happy birthday, sayang!!!! *Muakz*
