A Pleasant Surprise



Last Friday, there was a loud knock on our front door. I saw from our front windows, there was a big red Post Office delivery van parked outside our house. Instantly, I asked Babah "Did you buy a new gadget for your camera?" Babah answered with a grin and answered the door.

After the deliveryman left, Babah came into the room and said the parcel was for me. So there I was still having the worst flu ever this year, smiling like kerang busuk with the unexpected gift. I received a bunch of fresh flowers and a box of chocolate from Atuk and Nanny! How special is that???

Even though the present arrived 3 days earlier than the real day, still it was a pleasant surprise. You see, every year I say the same thing - "I've had the greatest birthday celebration!" And that is true. Thanks to the whole family, close friends, blog friends, well everyone really, for making my birthdays memorable.

p/s: Thanks to all special birthday wishes via the comment box, emails and smses! I am surprised some of my friends do remember my birthday! Thank you! (But do skip the age bit OK!)

p/p/s: Also, do see this special wish from my gorgeous nieces (<-- click there). I tried to post it here but failed. They are so cute, I love them to bits. p/p/p/s: I will also post about the real birthday celebration soon. Wait for it!

8. Syikin Bunga-bunga tu tahan lama betul. Masih segar lagi dalam vase. Saya beransur pulih, alhamdulillah. Tinggal batuk dan gatal tekak sahaja.

Didn't know it was your birthday. I would've written something birthday-related then on my blog. Oh well, too late to do anything about it now; save for blowing out the candles perhaps.

Anyway, Happy Birthday. Hope the next celebration will continue to be the greatest birthday celebration that you've had :)
