A little newborn niece who shares my birthday!

Joyful joyful! 双喜临门!It was my royal birthday yesterday. All was quiet for the whole day, did some shopping, had a quick dinner, headed home, did some housework, and then came a call. A little baby girl was born!

My sis-in-law, Joey,went into labour early yesterday morning. But baby didn't pop until late at night. Apparently, there were some complications with the positioning of baby (turn down but facing the wrong way, and an umbilical cord around the neck). So instead of natural birth (which Joey had wanted), she had to go thru a cesarean. 20 mins and baby was wailing away... (Imagine contractions since late morning till like 12 hours later! Gosh...)

Anyway, we visited baby this afternoon after lunch. Prince A & Princess Z were also there and happy to greet a new play-partner. Less talk for now. Picture time!

A Reunion - TNS 21 years later!

I'm really excited as I write this post. I just had a reunion on Thursday. After more than 2 decades (sounds like a damn long time, but it's true!), I met up with people from my primary school days! Gosh,.... We found each other on facebook, chatted a bit, and the next thing we know, we were all sitting in the same restaurant having a reunion dinner!

That evening was completely exciting and super fun. We were scrambling thru our brains trying so very hard to remember who he was, who she was, which class they belonged to and what we ever did. It was really hilarious when I told a few classmates I remember their faces, I know them, but cannot remember their names! Hahahaha... Oh my goodness, such fun and those memories...

Anyway, dinner was @ Yellow Light Thai Food, 95 East Coast Road. Food was fantastic, setting was a nice cosy place. We had the entire 2nd floor to ourselves. And it was really great. Oh yes, and Bernard brought a Tiramisu cake and everyone celebrated my birthday too! Hahaha.... So sweet, very memorable and I am very very touched. I was almost in tears when everyone sang me the birthday song. Ooooh...
OK, picture time. This set was taken by Kirby.
