Advance 20 celebration. A day fully planned by Eugene Chen! :)
Morning:
Woke up early in the morning and he went to fetch me. I kept making wild guesses of where we were going. But he didn’t give in to any of those. Thought he was going to bring me to NEX, the place we didnt went before. Final destination was at Jurong point which wasnt what i expected. So farrr, and of all why Jurong Point right. lol.
Okay, so we went go to buy snacks like Ba Gua and some crackers. Had a quick bite at starbucks and off we went to the interchange.
Still, i did not know where we were going until he said 194. Looked around and saw the sign, Jurong Bird Park. HAHA, spoiler! lol.
So off we went! Been such a long time since i last went there, since secondary school with the clique? haha. Saw penguins, ducks, ostriches, eagles, vultures, owls, hornbills, etc, etc.
Omg, penguins were so cute, the way they climbed out of the water and waddle about.
Oh, and we talked about emperor penguins. As the name suggested, they were the largest penguins in the world. Stood 5 feet tall, almost as tall as humans. Wah, damn amazing! Didn’t know they can grow up till 5 feet tall. And i thought..the birdpark have that species. lol.Looks like we have to travel to Antarctica to see it already. haha.
Look at that! So big and fat, can hug lah. Eugene suggested fighting with them and see who will win. –.-
lol, thats a wooden duck in the waters.
Fed ostrich with banana! I wonder why ostriches looks that way. See long abit strange.
Fed the Magpies too. Nice experience getting up-close with the birds and feeding them. haha, how i wish.. i am a birdkeeper/zookeeper.. NOPE! take back my words.
The birds show were great! Eagles, vultures all came to “live”. (Y)!
It was already 6 plus when we finished our “bird – seeing”. He bought me to have dinner was at Hilltop Japanese Restaurant, a teppanyaki restaurant.
Before that, he suggested eating Nasi Briyani in the birdpark –.-
To think he had actually had it all planned to eat at the restaurant there already. :D
We kept walking the wrong directions even though with iPhone GPS. hahaha. The walk was damn tiring, going against gravity, going uphill. Phew, but in the end was managed to find that place!
Was the first time i ever eaten Tepannyaki in a restaurant. Wow, the atmosphere and the dinner were great, not like the usual fine dining, where the chef cooks for you specifically for you, etc. All things were great except that, we reeked of the “kitchen smell”. lol.
After that, he tried to surprise me by going somewhere with a taxi. He whispered to the taxi driver and the taxi driver repeated the destination. Hahaha. Spoiler again! Destination was to his house.
When i reached his house, his auntie had already prepared a cake for me. Surprise! Thanks auntie!
Presents and card i got from him!
The first thing he gave me was the card, followed by the GUESS wallet which i thought was a watch at first.
I thought that was all but then it came another present, a GUESS bag. I was in a omg reaction when i opened the wrapper. Still couldn’t believe it he bought me that. Thanks sweetie!
To you:
It was a really wonderful birthday celebration, a day at bird park was memorable and special. You just never fails to make my day! :)
I really really appreciated it alot!
Thanks for the dinner at Hilltop Restaurant, was a special dining experience. Enjoyed the dinner there! Thanks for the gifts as well! I love it! Didn’t expect you to buy me such expensive gifts for me.Once again, thanks! <3 I will definitely use it.(Am using it right nao!)
Lastly,
I wanna say thanks for planning the whole day for me! Saw your planned list-to-do-timings. You actually wrote each timing for each event! Like fetching me from house took what time to what time, go birdpark from what time to what time, and what give fake present first from what time to what time. hahah. So cute. And at the same time, i was kinda touched by it. So sweet of you to have it all planned out nicely.
I love you, eugene chen! <333
