birthday blues :(

happy birthday to me... happy birthday to me... sigh... another year older...

not sure if it is because I am getting older, or I basically didn't get into the mood of celebrations (whether it is X'mas or birthday!).

today wasn't the best of my birthdays... the chirpy, happy mood was just not around me! the weather didn't help much... it was rain, rain and more rain! spent most of the day on my own... thou I really enjoyed my own personal time (it must be the age!)

here's the details of my celebrations, which started yesterday...

checked into M Hotel (I had a complimentary night stay) at 2pm on my own coz my sisters are either at work or had errands to run... so I had the room to myself till about 4pm. the room is really big and nice... some pictures to share...

my birthday was like a big eating trip... here's what we ordered!

1) Steamboat buffet at THE BUFFET. Had chicken soup on the right pot, and turtle and black chicken soup on the left. forgot to take a pix before eating... so this pix was at the tail end of the dinner ;p

2) the dessert after the steamboat... the cakes were not that yummy, but took loads of long gans from the almond beancurd!

3) my bro-in-law came much later, so we ordered room service for him... his laksa was really good... and I took another helping of dessert - warm apple crumble! my sis had her fav carrot cake.

P.S: something was not right, couldn't load the other pictures of the food...

slept till abt 10am this morning, had a bubble bath before going for lunch. after I checked out of the hotel, I went for my relax therapy - manicure and pedicure! It was still raining at the evening. I went for a quick dinner at VIVO city with my sis, mermaid and her prince. Nothing fancy (especially after all the big meals since christmas!), just a good hearty meal at the food court!

That's how I spent the day I turned 29...
