I am officially 28 years old!! My birthday celebration with K started with breakfast at this really small and cosy bakery just a few minutes drive from our place. This bakery had been featured (and given a high rating) on http://www.hungrygowhere.com/ so K decided to give it a try..

I had quiche lorraine, mushroom soup and freshly squeezed orange juice, while K had a cheese twist and rosti with veal sausage.. Everything was perfecto! Haven't had such a delicious Western breakfast since NZ!

After breakfast, it was all work again.. K drove me around to meet up with 3 more printers near our place for the Luftansa deal. By the time we were done, it was almost 2pm. We then headed to a car showroom and this baby hyperstore to shop for baby stuff and cars.. Our MX5 is really getting quite uncomfortable for me these days, so we have decided to buy a less "selfish" car.. = )
Next up was more baby shopping at Takashimaya.. We bought a big bag of baby stuff, but my list of things to be bought still seems very long! = ( While shopping, we saw Kumar from Boom Boom Room. He had been hired by the organizers behind the New Face 2009 contest, so he was standing behind the stage when we saw him.. I decided to take a picture with him, cause he was SO nicely dressed! Plus, i just went on You Tube recently to watch some of his stand-ups, and i must say he's REALLY good..

After our little shopping spree, K and I went to catch a movie at Cathay. We watched "Funny People" starring Adam Sandler.. Some people say this is his best movie ever.. but i beg to differ.. it's nice, but not his best show definitely, just a good movie with a slightly different tweak / new angle on portraying comedy.
My plan had been to take as many photos as possible on my birthday, but that didn't actualize. Mainly because my entire day was spent either at factories (visiting printers), or indoors during the shopping and movie watching.. So there weren't many opportunities or nice places for picture taking... Sigh.. looks like i have to set aside another day to dress up and take photos of my preggers body!
After the movie, K and I went to our favourite Modestos for dinner.. I had a complimentary 3-course birthday meal, and K ordered an extra pizza for himself.. It was a simple yet romantic dinner.. We tried to ask the wait staff to take some pictures of us in the restaurant, but gave up cause the lighting was too dim, and all the photos ended up looking blur.. Sigh.. In the end, we decided to just stick with K taking pictures of me instead...

By the time we reached home, it was nearly 11pm. I spent the last hour of my birthday going through all the quotes from the printers, and preparing a final quotation for Luftansa.. So sad right! Really hope i can get this deal, otherwise all my efforts would have been in vain! If i get this deal, that would be a really nice birthday present.. although my best birthday present so far is still little baby Bria... = )
