Happiest 24th Young Lady

So....

Happy birthday to me I guess?

Planned the perfect scenario in my head since a month before my birthday. Like I dont want any gift in the form of material. Just because I NEED a good company and a day out. But of course, a week before my birthday, work came and there goes my perfect birthday trip.

So, there it was, 2nd August 2018, a Thursday. Spent the whole day in the meeting room; scrutinising assumptions for our business financial modelling. Luckily enough, it was not dreadful. Perhaps because I was in the mood or just birthday magics ha-ha! 

And if you know me, I am by definition, an extremely hyper girl. Especially. When. I. Am. Excited! I was so pumped up I needed to channel the energy out. And there, you could find Fareed & I in the middle of Kuala Lumpur for an adhoc trip. Not that I am not physically tired. But my emotion was so intense, it overpowered my physical/mental fatigue.

5.45pm sharp, clocked out, dozed off to Damansara and to KL. First destination, Petaling Street. Mainly because the theme to the trip was “jalan jalan makan angin”. I wanted to just spend my time with my sweetheart and then I saw Lee Wah Florist, the infamous florist in town. And I thought, you know what, why not buy the flower yourself. So I dragged him into the shop, fascinated by the vast choice of flowers and colours. But I wanted roses. I've always loved roses. Nothing significant, but when I think of flowers, I think of roses. To me it's the classic flower. The uncle said, "dalam ada lagi banyak". And I rushed into the air conditioned room and oh my my.....

MY HEAVEN!

SO MANY ROSES, SO MANY BABY BREATHS, SO MANY HYDRANGEAS!

SO. MANY. FLOWERS!!

As expected, I went cray cray hahaha. I'm already excited. Then Koobs whispered, "You pilihlah mana you suka, I belanja". Oh dear, am I not happy enough? My eyes widen yay. Choose punya choose, I spent almost 40 minutes in there & done-so I ended up with not one but twoooo bouquets. Ahh such love.

Of course after such excitement, it wore me down. So we had to get some food to fill our empty stomach. We made our way to Tapak Urban Street Food near Jalan Ampang to have our dinner overlooking the gracious KLCC Twin Towers. Romantic lan konon konon kan hiks. I had Kuey Teow Goreng and Koobs had some hipster burrito. And the rest is history.

So there goes my birthday. Nothing eventful, no material gifts. Just presence of the things I love.

Simple little things just made me so happy











Love,
