23-12-07` hky birthday ; gucci

celebrated hky birthday yesterday. she craves for surprises, so she has no clue of where to go, what to do and so ever.

as part of the present, she has to carry this mermaid, standing half of her height, around.

the poor foil mermaid has deflated by her birthday (we bought this a week ago and the person did say it'll last for 1 - 2 weeks). according to the sales rep, i can pump 'her' up at any bicycle shop or kiosk with the pump for tyres but i tried the dumb act and hereby confirm that its nothing but a myth.

bian asked me to try mac donalds since they give out balloons to kids. its downright awkward to ask the manager for some helium to revive our mermaid. the only thing we were proud of are the stares of envy from all kids in mac donalds.

it had been 2 days and mermaid is 'slimming down' fast. the rest is up to our princess to take care!

we planned k-ster, alvin and the chipmunks movie and dinner at swiss culture for her. all well went well, except the tight schedules that makes us sweat like participants of the amazing race.

here is a special feature of swiss culture, which impressed all of our taste buds! i didn't know swiss cuisine is such heavenly till now. well, the best part is.. hky treat us to this meal!

Chicken zurich-style with rota potato. *yummms!

the cheese fondue served with bread

close-up on the legendary cheese fondue! its one big POT of cheese!

mary, look at that! ur favourite, hehs!

fortunately with hky's uob womens sub-card, we managed to get a complimentry chocolate fondue!

the birthday girl is happy with her princess wand and mermaid.

finally a group shot before ending the night.

there is another surprise planted but we don't have the stamina to continue the night. yupps. till next time!

bian and leon (his friend, in case any wonder he is my 'mistress') fetched me after that. bian went on tattering how nice is a Gucci card case and it having 30% disc. i was thinking "aiyoh, so nice then buy for me lah!". he gimme a gucci plastic bag. its not the card case, its a wallet. it took me some time to calm my nerves and recover from the shock.

omg, why is he so nice?
