Birthday Blast...

the day started with an ang pao from mum...
followed by breakfast @ Hougang Avenue 8 market...
i was telling her that we will leave the house at around 9:30am to avoid the morning traffic and bus lane...
at 9am... she came into my room to tell me that dad has driven the car to office today...
so, we took the bus...
Hougang Avenue 8 used to be our weekly breakfast place during my school days...
time flies and it has been more than 12 years since i last visited there...
changes everywhere...

came home, showered and went out to meet Steve for massage @ Elements, The Cathay...
we were using the HSBC promotion...
today was the grand opening of the outlet...
my birthday must be a good day...
the masseur was chatting to me the whole time...
and i didn't know how to ask her to stop...
she used quite a fair bit of strength and my body was aching after that...
after the massage, there was the usual sales talk...
we didn't manage to agree on the freebies...
hence did not sign up for the package...

rushed down to Cineleisure's Fabulous Tanning Studio for our free trial...
after the introduction, tanning started...
11 minutes in the chamber which was equivalent to 4 hours under the sun... amazing...
was tempted to sign up for the package...
but will give it more thought over the weekend and at the same time see how the effects were...

lunch-cum-tea was at 4:30pm at Central HK Cafe Takashimaya...
by the time we finished eating, the tan was still not noticeable...
we parted after tea and i headed home to shower...
it was a painful event now that the body is red, like cooked prawns...
applied moisturiser to prevent the burning and itching...

what a blast to my birthday...
