Last thursday. i was supposed to blog about this last thursday. but my life has been ever so busy, i d e k with what so now, i finally found the time to blog.
Last thursday, 21 March was the man's 26th birthday. it was also the first time ever had i plan something rather special single-handedly. every single thing from scratch. the cake, the card the desserts. he told me it's been a while since he had a proper celebration for his birthday, and i though. Why not?
Little did i know, it was no joke. Especially when i have to do it alone. it was a race against time. and working two days closing shifts does not help. i had to actually wake up from my beauty sleep early to travel here and there to grab my stuffs. and my really bad habit of procrastinating all the time i had nothing to do. it took me half a day to work on th card. and i thought it looked like i was scrapbooking for once.
i didn't even know how to make th card special, but i decide putting together things that made up his entire life will do best. well, th results was, as you can see later. it's double sided.
i prepared his cake the day before together with th tiramisu mousse cups. i had PAVLOVA with tons of cream and fruits for this cake and something to cool us down for that hot sunny day was th tiramisu.
after i had everything prepared, together with wrapping his present which is actually a new wallet because i really wna cry seeing his old one. :B yeah, so i got one for him. anyway, i have yet to decide how do i bring him to Marina Barrage.
i called him th moment i stepped out of th house with my hands full of things and told him to prepare. still, i wasnt sure on how to get there with him. my feet sort of brought me to th bus stop where i could take a bus to his place. so i did. i picked him up personally.
it could have been a surprise, because originally, he doesnt know at all wherei will bring him, if not for th ever so clueless taxi driver who dont even know where in Singapore is Marina Barrage. i really face palmed myself.
it was a nice picnic. okay minus th scorching hot sun that melted th cake. HAHA. i really wanted to laugh looking at it. we made it quick because we were dehydrated.
we walked to town, grab a drink and had lunch/dinner at Pastamania before catching a horror movie.YEAH. on his 26th birthday, we watched The Haunting in Connecticut 2.
it was simple. just the two of us. i like how my plan went by as i kind of picture it to be, minus th cab driver and melted cream on th pavlova. i like how there was a special event which was th picnic before we went back to our usual simple date, food and movies. i like the smile on his face through out th entire time. i like how th showed off his birthday card to every possible passerby because it was in a transparent bag like a small boy. i love how th day started, went and ended; with a simple kiss on th forehead as he thanked me for the day.
just thinking about th event still kind of give me th tingles. all my girly feels making me all giggly and mentel.
First attempt in Pavlova and my best Tiramisu yet.
Basically sums up the lovely picnic at Marina Barrage.
