Yes so it has been days but guess what I'm back with a vengeance! So nothing much since the last post except for the extremely fun 25th birthday celebration. Thanks to all who came and made it happen and to those that couldn't make it, you will be remembered. Nice way to conclude the recess week but now its back to reality and Friday's quiz shall absorb all my energy and time. Not to forget my FYP which is sitting there collecting dust!

Friday evening at a quick dinner at Asian Kitchen with Lionelay cos he ain't gonna make it the next day with the rest. :( So anyways its been ages since I last met him and we sorta just updated each other with the going-ons. Apparently Asian Kitchen don't accept Diners Card as I wanted to pay for dinner but before I could use my mastercard, Lionelay paid! Hahaha, well I got us drinks at Spinelli's, chilled for abit before I rushed home for a mahjong session with Shenny and Kenneth. Lost $14!!! Haven't won in ages but the sweet "couple" surprised me with a slice of cake at midnight just after "XI Feng"! Thanks guys!

Quick note, if you're intending to host a dinner at Thai Express Paragon, think twice if your numbers are more than 6 people. Had a pretty ridiculous episode at the particular outlet which sort of dampened the mood even though they knew I was hosting my birthday dinner there. I understand that they are unable to accommodate prompt service for large groups during peak hours but I would expect at least some flexibility from their customer service to make the wait less irritating then it already is. 1stly, they do not accept reservations. Fine! 2ndly, they are unwilling to call us when the tables are ready, sticking closely to their strictly walk-in only basis, meaning at least 1 person has to wait in line till the cows come home. FINE! 3rdly, they offered some of us to occupy an empty table while waiting for the other customers to finish so that they can join the tables but only if at least 1 person waits in line while the rest sits. And if you don't agree, they will have to give up the smaller empty tables to the person waiting behind you and you can happily wait till the right moment comes when just enough people sitting in the same area leaves so they can join the tables. Ok BYEBYE...Thai Express! Went across to My Mum's Cuisine.

Some pictures for your view pleasure...

Last but not least, Miling's pressie. A bottle of France finest

Headed down to Dempsy Road to chill at Ben & Jerry's. Too bad freeuns had to leave for work related stuff. Too bad no group pic to show for our time at Ben & Jerry's. Like I said, in all my 25yrs and still have a group of close knit friends that I can call upon on any occasion, is the real gift and a blessing from God. So I hope as the years roll by I'll still be able to have these bunch of guys at my side and hopefully the group will grow by integrating new and like minded people. Yes this is my family away from home.

Decided to give Thai Express another shot the next day but this time with my family at Plaza Singapura outlet. No problem at all and received a bottle of wine for being a Orange card member celebrating my birthday there.

So Happy 25th Birthday Matt, you rock!
