11 Nov 2008

Woke up from the ring on our door. Oh yes, it Tuesday, our part-time domestic assistant is here to help my wife with her chores. She hate ironing, mopping and cleaning the toilet. Anyway, I decided to sleep a little longer. She woke me up at 9.00am to go for breakfast at Qi Ji next to Hougang Mall.

Reached home and was flushed with tons of work. Hai....is just another day that I cannot do what I planned to do. Lunch was at 2.00pm and we went to Compasspoint. Was planning to eat Macdonalds but there was a blackout. So ended up going to the new food court at the upper floor.

Surprised. The food is not bad. I had porridge and my wife had Fried Hong Kong Mee.

Left home for a meeting at around 3+ and reached Bukit Merah at 4.15pm. I was then stuck there till 6.30pm. Now I have to rush to VIVO to collect the gift for my wife's birthday. Unfortunately, while I was waiting to pick up the gift, she has already reached VIVO. Leaving myself with not much choices, I decided to change my plan and meet up with my wife. But I asked that they pack the goods for me.

Gave her some excuse and we decided to celebrate one day in advance. We ended up at Bakerzin for dinner.

The ATM Machine!!!

The Birthday Girl!!!

The Food!!!!

The Birthday Cake!!!

She choose her birthday cake and we are bringing back home to have a little midnite ceremony. Haaa... she still doesn't know what has been installed for her. On the way back, I just walked her into Best Denki and told her that I have a present for her. I pass her the receipt and told her that it was a birthday card. She opened it took her quite some time to realise what is going on. The next moment, she asked: "You bought this for me???? Then how about yourself???" I told her that I got one for myself too and she felt much better. Then she was in joy!!!!

An audio headphone. No.... I am not so cheapo and she will not scream in joy. This is only one of the free gift. We waited patiently for the gift and she inspected that everything is in good condition.

While we waited, I told her the story. In fact, early 29 Oct 2008, I have already place a deposit on the gift as I think the pricing was quite good. I also got one for myself. Ya, it was a SONY VAIO Notebook!!! It was in her favourite pink and mine is charcoal black (Mine still have to wait for stock to replenish).

These are all in one package. Creative Audio Headphone, 8GB Thumbdrive, Optical Mouse, VAIO Bag and a free 4GB RAM upgrade. If you are interested, the price is still fixed at SGD 2399.00 but you will not get so much gift anymore.

The gift!!!!

What a happy birthday girl I got here!!!

What a happy wife I got here!!!!



With this new gadget, she can put the legacy system to sleep.

She finally sat down and play with her gadget while I started to work. But on and off, she will ask me how to install this and install that. Sigh...... these are the additional cost that comes with the gift. Then she reminded me that I promise to give her SGD 200.00 shopping spree. She decided to use it for the new notebook bag/casing. Well, so long she stay happy, money can be earned back by working harder. Please spend so long it makes you happy.

Met up with one of my programmer at 9.30pm and came back at 11.40pm. Then a BNI member chatted me. I have to stop halfway thru to do the little ceremony for her. I took my guitar and sang her a happy birthday song in English and Mandarin. We then took the cake from the fridge to prepare for the ceremony.

Smile baby!!!! Happy Birthday!!!!



Come on, do a funny face!!!!



One more round of birthday song!!!!

And then, blow the candle!!!!!



Short and sweet ceremony!!!

Result: A happy girl!!!

After the ceremony, I came back to the room to blog while she browse the web using her new notebook looking at all the SONY VAIO accessories. Hai..... my heart will skip a beat when she spotted something she likes.

That's all for the day. I need to retire to rest as I have a longer day tomorrow. With all these spending, it will take me another few weeks of hard work to earn it back!!!
