Yepyep, 20thApril is Mr Victor's birthday! We almost couldnt celebrate it because he was supposed to be confined the whole weekend and the following weekend he has outfield. Can you imagine celebrating your birthday 3 weeks late?! But thankfully, they let him out for half a day on Sunday! (:

It's better than nothing okay! He booked out in the morning and we met in the erm, afternoon :( Because of my lousy planning :( I was supposed to wake up at 8am, prepare his present and cake and surprise him at his place! Due to some miscommunication with his mom, i didnt try as hard to wake up earlier and thus only met him 4hours after he was out. Times awasting man...

And the silliest thing was, i was still packing his present by the time he met me. I guess some things never change - my procrastination, and being no good at keeping secrets and surprises. Oh well, it's been 2 years, i believe we have pass the stage whereby i can actually prepare his present in front of him. Right baby? HAHA. Hey... it was a last minute thing that he can book out so i wasn't fully prepared mahhh. *shrugs*

So anyway, my Army Man! Or my Man from Army! Or... erm... either way it sounds weird. Whatever. Ain't he the most good looking bloke you have seen, clad in green-splattered-paint? Teehee :D NooooooOooOoooo baby, please don't go back to Tekong!

We sat for awhile in YewTee's McCafe drinking-ultra-horrid-tasting Iced Passion Tea. Let me digress, i felt like i was drinking rubber, if rubber could be drunk. I poured so much sweetener to make it taste normal as i was beyond thirsty n simply looking for a place to sit. Their lattes scuk too, same, as if im drinking iced water with sweetener that turned bad! And i don't mean just the YewTee branch, it's the 1 at Pasir Ris too. Gosh, i think the only proper drink is the Mocha Frappe... tsk. Makes me wonder if their standard was always this bad, or has it worsen? Alright, so that was where he pretended not to peep at me wrapping his present.



Cute? (: It was a last minute idea and i thought it was not bad. If only i had more time to pack it properly... I made a collage of our pictures (especially with bloopers of him) then pasted it on those hard pretty paper/card. Then i wrote the birthday wishes on the back of it. I wrapped the present in this blue tissue-y crepe paper and then wrapped the card around it. Added the lil ribbons and tadah, home wrapped gift. And YES, that adorable litle boy in the centre is my boyfriend when he was a size mini! Aww... ... (:



Here's his present which i have lost sleep over. Sigh, what a long story but i'm gg to attempt to tell it briefly! I wanted to get him a mp3 with big headphones but he didn't want as he kind of has 1 now. Shirts are boring as i have bought him so many things to wear already. I remembered he wanted a small sling bag (though i have gotten him 1 before.. but it was too big. not sure if i blogged about it) so i thought Porter suits him best.

First, i went to Porter International at Wisma (after my research on Porter goods online). I immediately disregard the small pouches as i told Bee & Yin "chey, so small, put what?!" I checked out the slings and they were still within my budget but decided to head down to HeadPorter (pun not intended) at Surrender to check out the products from Tokyo. This was an ulu shop that i found on the net and after checking with Vic's friend who used to go with him. We walked pass it twice before realizing that it's on the 2nd level of a random shop with Adidas logos on the door.

HeadPorter items are like double the price of Porter International and obviously, i wanted to head back to Wisma to get the sling which is like the price of HeadPorter's pouch only. But somehow we got brainwashed by the shop assistant who claimed that the Porter in Wisma is FAKE cause it's from Taiwan. So i spent a nice 3 digit figure for the mini pouch that could actually have paid for a sling at Porter Wisma... I still felt happy about it ok, cause baby's wallet used to be from HeadPorter Tokyo too. Oh and Surrender's supposedly the only shop that sells HeadPorter products in Singapore...

I assumed that Vic might find the shop at Wisma "fake" too, it could be a guy thing you know. But he was like "no lah, not fake. Just that it's from a different place what..." And i started questioning the right of the guy for saying a proper recognised shop at Wisma fake when his shop is so much ulu... You might judge me for being the unknowing one but still, at least Wisma will give you a nice paper bag and not some black plastic for a 3 digit cost item right? So ya, secretly i think my boyfriend prefers the sling so i wanted to buy another. But he insisted he wants what i chose for him. "Just a lanyard and karibina more from Porter will do". How i love this guy. Hehs.


I googled (actually yahoo-ed) and the first 1 is kind of like what i bought. The second seemed to be another he mentioned that is "grenade-shaped". AHHH. If only the pouch is bigger, he could keep his wallet in too. You can check out HeadPorter products at http://head-porter.org/home.htm

Enough rant! i think that was not brief at all... Haha. Since baby could book out on weekends already, we have watched a number of movies and headed to town together!


I loveeeeee shopping with baby in town! Here's 2 dresses i tried on from Miss SelfFridge. This cutting of theirs is really flattering and easy to wear but i dint buy any! One's too plain and the other's too over the top cause the prints were actually blue-ish. I bought a toga dress from TopShop instead. It's unlike any thing i have ever worn i guess, cause it's body hugging and more feminine. But somehow the boyfriend thinks it feels like "Tarzan and Jane" with the 1 shoulder effect. And my girlfriends who checked it out after thought it looked Sporty! But wth, i bought it anyway without any idea of when i would ever wear it. It's white with grey stripes in 3 directions. Let's hope it doesn't get chucked into a corner...

So... i guess i went out of point. I just adore doing anything with my silly boy (: Here's a tired looking him on the cab to town that day. Again,

HAPPY 20TH BABY! I really hope you like your mini celebration and present (: And i insist on blogging though its almost 2am cause it's your Big Day! Screw Army, i can still sing your birthday song to you and blog it out! Your wishes will come true too! I Love You, Q S SEOW.

Night baby, night FatFat, and night world. BIG HUG! (:
