19 was a day of realization and appreciation. For those who genuinely cared, mattered and all that's worth after all. Even those miles miles away. Enough said =)

Thanks to those who called, mainly from Malaysia, my dearest family (with personalized birthday songs from sisters, parents & Granny), love you all! And from Sri, Juliana, Zhi Shan (a surprise at 11.54 pm)) & Leying + Xiao Wei + Wei Han (really warmed my heart that night, you trio!)! Thanks also to Bryan for singing to me online!

Thanks to those who sms-ed me (especially those from home), who wished me on my blog and also at 12 am sharp on msn and to the many yous who wished me on Facebook =) They may seem simple, but thoughtful nonetheless, I appreciate them a lot. Arigatou!

On that day itself, many thanks to Gloria for lunch, and later for your special attention to my poor foot! And for the pretty gift! =)


Thanks to Xia for the afternoon cake + drink, plus your hand-made card (which I won't publicize here, for your sake XD) + gift, and for searching high & low in China for the Huan Zhu series! AND for purposely wearing BLUE for me! XOXO



Thank to Sara, who've sent me a birthday card all the way from Brisbane 3 weeks before, to which she sealed it with a "Do Not Open till 30th July"! Simple wishes that made my day. =)


Thanks to Rachael, for your Ten Gifts, through your gift of words. I can't ask for more. Treasure =)

Thanks very much, Jian, for the card + beautiful Victorian-inspired jewel box, definitely suits my taste, and for making it for the dinner through much difficulties =) And for your blog post!

My camera doesn't do it much justice, trust me!

Thank you to Jia Yen, Pei Wen, Jian, Andrea, Daphne, Kor, Ming Chin, Chen Hao, Mao Mao for organizing a birthday dinner for me at TOTO's! And for the scrumptious birthday cake =) =)
