My Birthday!

An annual affair~ to celebrate the day I stepped onto Earth.. No hiding that I've officially turned 27, slowly creeping into the '30's' group.. Haha! Years ago, I remembered myself as being very excited whenever my birthday was approaching, and I can't wait to blow off the candles on my birthday cake every year.. Haha.. In short, I can't wait to grow up!

Now that I'm all grown up physically (I already see little signs of aging.. Haha), birthdays bring a different meaning to me =) I'm thankful for every birthday spent with people that matter to me, and more appreciative of each day that I'm given.. It sounds cliche, but it's important not to take each day, anything or anyone for granted.. And live each day as if it was your last and make it count!

I shall slowly recall the celebrations that I had with my loved ones =)

Had an early celebration with my family over at sushi tie.. Brought the folks over to vivocity to try out some nice jap cuisine.. Haha

My dearest parents~
Xmas tree is up already!

On the eve and actual birthday, Mr Koh had thoughtfully planned days of good food and activities for celebration.. Haha! Thank you for feeding me so well, I think I've gained a few kilos =p

We headed to the SEA aquarium on my birthday eve! To say hi to the fishes.. Haha..

But it was packed with people.. It was eve of hari raya haji

Then it was a lovely dinner at this quiet restaurant tucked in a little corner of Equarius hotel.. Tangerine is the name of the restaurant~ they serve healthy and nutritious food, in a semi fine-dining setting.. I highly recommend this! The food is flavourful and is healthy at the same time =)
