the v-day bouquet
wanted to log this down because it was really unexpected. we werent planning to do any sort of celebration for vday this year since I am serving my confinement and won’t be able to consume outside food. and boy, was I surprised when the husband appeared at my room doorstep at 4.30pm! he usually only comes home at about 9.30pm or later. and to make the day even better, he gave me a bouquet of……… rilakkumas! I just had to laugh at the sight of it, because I am not a fan of these bears.. and they remind me of my colleague, Beverly because she likes them a…

Happy birthday to myself!
It went by like any other day, but that’s how birthdays are to me as I grow older. Der celebrated it for me the night before and brought me to greenwood fish bistro simply because it was oysters night and knowing how much I dig oysters. I actually kinda spoiled the surprise the weekend earlier while suggesting to my brother we should go there one of these days because the oysters are dirt cheap (at $1 each with any order of main course) and der let out the fact that he was gonna bring me there come Tuesday. Well, the boy did surprise me with a bouquet, a present and…

My house turned florist.
For a night. Heh. My brother has been really busy with helping a friend’s wedding lately that I haven’t seen him much. On Friday, he came back with a whole bunch of flowers and transformed my mum’s kitchen into his ‘work table’. Well, he offered his services to do the bridal bouquet, the groom’s corsage and 2 huge bouquets for the couple’s parents after their thank you speech. He also did the bridesmaids’ corsages using fake flowers the week earlier and I totally forgot to take pictures of them!! =( here’s the bridal bouquet! I love the refreshing burst of colours and the fact that it has wires and butterflies…

Sending happiness along someone’s way!
Don’t you love it when you do a small act and attain happiness when you send happiness in someone’s way? Sent out a bouquet of flowers last week to cheer kristy up on her birthday! It was drama to send these flowers because I have NO CLUE what her address was, so I based it on guesswork and had the florist call up to double confirm before the delivery. Of cos, the address was so wrong (one street away) but the flowers got to her still, and made her a very happy girl! She told der – if I didn’t receive any flowers today, I can’t sleep and would go…

My simple vday..
I started the day pulling myself out of bed with only 3hrs sleep at 530am in the morning. Yay! He’s finally back from a one week trip. I hope it’s the last for the next few months since we are not far from d-day. Headed to the airport to give the boy a surprise (but his plane landed 50 mins earlier and I was caught halfway when he texted me). I had to reply because I didn’t want to risk missing him at the airport, so surprise blown. =( Headed for a quick brekkie before I quickly popped back home to prep for the work day and the boy sent…

Valentine’s day.
I didn’t think i’ll get flowers this year for vday since I was away in msia and the day coincides with 初一 which makes it harder to buy flowers. But… I got a bunch of fake flowers instead. He has bought a bunch of fake flowers from ikea and wrapped them up with a silvery giuseppe zanotti shoe bag, sprayed the flowers with his favourite perfume and gave it to me!! Gotta love the innovation and effort behind the gift and I get reminded of him every time I smell the flowers!! Oooh.. i heard from agnes that derrick was brewing some surprise plan to send some flowers to the…

the surprises went out fine…
sent a bouquet of roses to cindy! and here’s the email i got from her while pretending that I knew nuts about the flowers. and i spoke to jennifer a while ago and she was telling me that the flowers that i sent her are so ME. and she told her husband the flowers were from ME without picking it up. Ok. i didn’t know that she went to her mum’s place for the day instead of resting at home, so the delivery man left the bouquet of flowers on her car porch. i guess it’s also the bunch of cheery flowers that i sent her with a mix of…
