Please relink me again and continue to show me lots of love, alright? ;-)

Royal Jelly Lotion from Daiso

2011-03-19T16:15:00.000-07:00

Bought this to test it out the other time when I was rejoicing over the fact that I didn't have to work on a monday. (previous post is HERE)

Royal Jelly Lotion from Daiso (55ml), $2.

I've been using this lotion for more than two weeks.

There is sure no hatred for it. ;-p

Btw, how does royal jelly smells like huh??

I actually consumed royal jelly capsule when I was young. All I could remember is that it's pretty tasteless.

So, can I presume that if it's in skincare form, it should have no smell/fragrance?

Then, how do we know that if it really has this ingredient inside?

Well anyway, on my 1st try, I was kinda shocked when I thought that I smelled alcohol.

I do not like products that contain alcohol (big amount of it) nor fragrance that tortures my nose!

However, the colorless liquid-gel seems to hydrate not-too-bad.

Subsequent tries, it didn't smell so much like alcohol anymore.

I actually use this as a treatment lotion. Followed by a day/night cream.

What I like about it:

Not too sticky or oily after it has been absorbed.

It's in gel lotion base.

It instantly "covers" up when I'm peeling.

Texture feels "rich".

Bottle is cute and handy.

Comes in a pump form.

Cheap.

What I dislike:

The instructions/directions on the packaging were all in Japanese & I can't read a single word.

The english on the super small piece of translated instruction were quite broken.

Fortunately, I can understand that it's meant for the face. (keke)

I will still continue to use since it has so far not impose any harm on my skin.

And I hope it gets better!

A day of 13 hours wait

2011-03-18T23:33:00.000-07:00

Had been pretty occupied the last few days!

Accompanied Ms Sim to work for 13 hours yesterday.

Now, I'm suffering from aches. ;-(

Besides the walking around, we ate almost non-stop during the time when she's free....

Our teabreak at Hans.

The raspberry has got hair!!!!!!!

I swear it turned me off from eating.

After assurance from Ms Sim that it's edible, I popped, chewed & swallowed the raspberry with no glee.

Then, we spent much time in the car waiting too.

With nothing to do at all.

I only had my notebook, a blue & a red pen.

So I tried to be artistic & scribbled!

Haha! I am not an art person okie, pls don't judge my drawings.

I had a sudden urge to have long hair.

I told Ms Sim that I'm gonna try to do a sketch of her.

It turned out like this which I'm quite happy with. LOL!

She was majorly disappointed and upset cos she didn't think it looks like her at all.

Or rather, I thought she was dismayed cos she had expected the drawing to be more like the first 2 drawings.

Ok, done with these non-relevant topics.

1 piece of news for you!
My blog will be ported over to myfatpocket.com really soon.
I'll update once it's done.
Do relink me then!

ElishaCoy BB All-In-One Cleanser

2011-03-17T00:56:00.000-07:00

Samples from TSS.

Read the full description here.

Even though this gel cleanser produces some foam while washing, it is ultra soft on the skin!
ElishaCoy BB All-In-One Cleanser is now one of my favourites.
The smell is sweet.
Ingredients are safe for even sensitive skin.
It is comparable to the Nuxe gentle cleanser that I've tried earlier in this post.

At times when I over-cleanse my face, red patches will form.
However, this ElishaCoy cleanser has no such problem, so I guess it is really mild to use.
Face feels clean and hydrated.

I give this 8/10.

I think it's going for less than $10 on TSS now or you could grab the samples if they are still available!

On the 11th March

2011-03-16T20:26:00.000-07:00

Yeah, it was that day of the year, I didn't want to celebrate since it's been years since I last did, yet I didn't want to stay home.

Hence I went out for a casual dinner at Ikea.

(btw, was supposed to visit the zoo in the morning. but didn't. I'm not surprised.)

I managed to finish almost everything.

At Night Safari!

Birthday girl gets in FREE.

Haha. only paid $10 for the tram ride.

The staff gave me a birthday badge which I didn't pin to my tank top.

And I didn't redeem the free ice cream cos I seriously had no idea where to redeem from.

;-(

I want my ice cream!

Started off the trail with minimal lighting. It was so dark that I couldn't really see where I was going.

Kinda creepy. I kept thinking some creature's gonna sprung at me!

I only got very few photos as no flash photography were allowed.

Babirusa!

I've never seen this kind of mix-breed pigs.

Forgot the name of this birds.

They smelled the most through out the whole night safari.

Their beaks so huge I swear they can swallow a baby.

Or even me.

No, no. I'm not your piece of cake.

Time for tram ride!

The staff were so friendly, offering to take photos for you.

I got to know much later that you gonna buy the photos if you want it.

Well, attraction places....

Here we go!!

It was so windy esp when we were passing thru the rainforest that I gotta wrapped my scarf around me.

Drinks Kiosk with Zebra theme.

even their tables and chairs are of zebras and prints!

Huge Ice-blended Fruit Punch that costs $6.90.

Luckily we asked and found out that the bottle can be brought home!

As the visit at the night safari ended, I passed by this corner that looked eerie to me!

Haha.... the music playing from it is just like a Thai horror movie that I watched.

Oh ya, watched the "Red Riding Hood" after that.

Nice show.(werewolves, violence etc)

But not for kids ok! it's no cartoon!

Lioele Fresh Sun Screen

2011-03-16T16:04:00.000-07:00

Lioele - Fresh Sun Screen SPF45/PA++ (80ml) at $9.

Once again, I got this deal at Lush Beauty.
Click here to go to their website.

I usually only fancy using sunblocks/sunscreens with SPF30 & below, as most higher SPF products seem to be a bit too oily for me & may cause my pores to clog.
Well, of cos it does not mean that products with high SPF definitely will clog the pores.
As long as one cleanses properly at the end of the day, it should not be a big issue.

I put on sunblock at home even if I am not heading out.
That's because lights/computers give out UV rays too.
Moreover, my desktop is just beside the window, hence I'm really getting a generous portion of sun & UV rays. At the end of the day, I'll cleanse my face with cleansing milk & a mild cleanser.

Ok, back to Lioele Fresh Sun Screen SPF45.
The cream is white. So, what I mean here is that this is not tinted.
I used to prefer liquid sunscreen as I thought that cream-based ones were a little hard to blend out on the face.
Well, now it doesn't seem so.
After toning, essence, lotion (whatever moisturizers I am using at that moment),
application of this Lioele Fresh Sun Screen SPF45 has been easy!
I haven't try applying w/o the steps in front, but then, who will actually skip moisturizing yeah?
Everyone should moisturize.

After applying, my face also seem brighter & fairer.
It also doesn't leave my skin feeling sticky/oily.
It has a light, floral fragrance. Not too strong to give my nose any problems
I've been using this product for almost a month, so far, it hasn't cause any outbreak.
It's such a big tube, I guess I can use up to 9 months?

I give this a 7.5/10.

Physiogel Hypoallergenic

2011-03-15T13:25:00.000-07:00

Physiogel carries a range of face & bodycare products.

When I first receive the 3pc trial kit, I gotta read thru the attached pamplet before I know that 1 of the 3 items is for body.

Cleanser:

Ultra gentle on the skin.

No tuggy, tight feeling after wash.

Didn't cause my face to break out.

If I am going to double-cleanse after removing my makeup using cleansing oil/milk, this cleanser is one of the suitable candidate to do the job so I am be sure that I am not seriously stripping the moisture off my face.

Cream:

I would only apply this cream during the night time before I sleep as it got kinda oily/sticky for me in the day.

However, this is good for people with very dehydrated/dry skin as it instantly forms an invisible, protective, moisture layer on the surface.

Lotion:

Also very moisturizing.

I applied all over my hands and legs at night as I sleep mostly with the air-con on.

Leaves a sheen on the surface of the skin.

I thought that my legs and arms looked "like they are glowing & "drinking" their fill happily.

These products can be found in Watsons.

Price range should be $20+? (not too sure about this)

I got this sample from TSS.

You can check out the link here.

Kinohimitsu J'pan Beauty Drink - Collagen

2011-03-12T17:48:00.000-08:00

This was one of the products in the big box from TSS.

Not doing any review on this cos I don't believe I can see the effects from just 1 bottle.

However, this collagen drink is tasty! Just like ribena!

I would love it even more if it's not so sweet though.

And it's gonna break a hole in my pocket if I start to take them on a regular basis. Haha!!

I used to take collagen drinks too, but hated them to the max bcos of their marine ~~smelly~~ fishy taste.

Easy storage for sachet samples

2011-03-12T17:16:00.000-08:00

Remember the big box I received few days back?

I emptied all 10 sachets of the Hada Labo Lotion into an empty container.
It filled up slightly more than half of the big container.

I have too many sachets lying around.
Sometimes if I use them at home, it can be a little troublesome as the liquid will leak out of the edge.
Esp this kinda liquid lotion!
Instead of using it from the sachet and finding too few a drops to be squeezed out and messing up the hands alot, I actually got more out of it by storing them in a container.
Now, applying it is so fuss-free!

I stored my cleansers this way too if I have more than a couple of sachet samples.

It's always good if we keep a few containers aside for future use! ;-)

Strudels Indulge

2011-03-11T14:02:00.000-08:00

Hey peeps!

Will be busy for this 2 days, so here's some pics of the yummy strudels which I had after my dinner on wed after I went down to SMA for my p/t studies.

Strawberry Strudel.

My favourite!

Mango Mini Strudel.

The portion and price is worth it!

Top with a cuppa coffee, I feel like I'm a lucky girl.

;-)

I'll be back tomorrow!

A big box from TSS....

2011-03-09T23:08:00.000-08:00

I was in the bedroom when the courier guy came knocking.

When I signed for this big box, I couldn't remember what did I get from TSS actually.

Hmmm....

It stated: "Fragile".

What could it be??

When I tore open the box in an animal way (haha, exaggerating a lil here) with much curiosity & anticipation,

I was sort of dismayed at the first glance.

Hada Labo Lotion? I have tried before, and was expecting something that I've never tried.

And what's that big big soft pack at the right?

Cotton? I have a feeling it's gonna be something I don't need.

Found my order list inside.

So it's that "The Sample Store Its A Girl Thing" kit that consists of:

(4 Retail Or 3 Retail 1 Travel) + 16 Samplers

After I lay them out, I seriously wasn't too happy.
Santinary pads: Good try. But I don't even use pads. ;-{
Eyeshadow: Don't even recognise the brand. The only fortunate thing is it's in a shade I like.
Some cure pack(in pink): Never seen before, but can try.
Collagen drink: Not particularly excited. But at least I know it's not cheapo stuff.
Hada Labo Mask (1pc): Hmmm, ok lah. But 1 pc? ;-|
Hada Labo Lotion (10 sachets): Generous.... If it's the usual redemption. But paying for samples that I've tried before? Not exactly worth. To make them seem so much worthwhile, I took an empty jericho face&neck gel container(used last time) & filled it so that it's easier to use.

Conclusion: All this for $10.99 exclusive of mailing fee. Not worth it since I expected something better. And I'm not the lucky 20 to get the clinique product. Kinda disappointing.
Well, guess I will not try this kinda "surprise" kit again cos I'm a more practical person.

Lioele Volume & Curling Mascara

2011-03-09T00:48:00.000-08:00

Hey ladies! Here's another cheap deal that I've gotten from Lush Beauty - http://www.secretive.sg/

Lioele - Volume & Curling Mascara at only $8.40.

I think they are selling it cheaper now in some promo weekly thing.

I'm not too sure, didn't want to check & feel the "heartpain"... ahahahaha!

I personally still prefer this type of brush than those lash-comb better.

Though I'm not the typical girly-girls, I still find this bright pink mascara attractive!

Let's try it!

*Note: I did not use eyelash curler prior to mascara application.

So the effect seen here is solely the mascara's doing/credit.

I lightly brushed 2 coats over each side and that's it!

Always like natural-looking mascara for a casual simple day. ;-)

Top view.

Application is pretty easy.
Doesn't clump.
Lashes don't have "heavy" feeling when I blinked.
Lasted till I reached home. (7hours)
Removing is easy too. I used a piece of makeup wipe(managed to clean everything off already), followed by cleansing milk to double cleanse.

Now I wonder how long will this last? It looked a little dry in its tube to me. Shrugs.
We shall see.

I like it so far! 8/10.

Beauty treats for the ladies

2011-03-08T17:50:00.000-08:00

Scanner wasn't working, thus I took photos of these brochures to show you the promotions going on at Fresver Beauty!
I've previously did a post on them before.
Click here to find out about the services & process in my facial.

If you are picking something on the ala-carte menu, you can still get up to 30% discount!

Remember to tell them you are referred by "Catherine Ang"!

(I only frequent the Tampines branch)

The services on this brochure are so worth it!

1 time trial at only $28!

However, you see the top right of the brochure?

6 sessions for $188!

Means 1 session is only $31.30.

Good for long term use.

I would personally ask you to ignore the clause "Ëach Package Total 24 Sessions".

They merely break up the process in a service. Many spas do that to attract customers.

You can consider it as 24 sessions if you want. But per time you do a treatment, they so-called deduct 6 sessions off.

Hence I will only look at it as 6 sessions in total.

Hope you ladies get what I mean! ;-)

If you like their services after trying out, recommend your friends to go too & enjoy the discounts while you also get to receive product vouchers or cash rewards from Fresver!

Receive birthday discounts & a gift during your birthday month as well!

Btw, I really like the china masseur lady, Shan Shan.

I think she's the best there!

(p/s: I just came back from the facial feeling like a queen. Soothing mask really hydrates my skin & "closes" the pores!)

The Blood Vessels In The Eyes Could Burst Due To Sneezing

2011-03-08T13:44:00.000-08:00

This was what happened to my right eyeball.

Photo doesn't seem so serious.

I would have thought it was my contact lens that caused the red blood vessels to bulg.

Went to the doctor last night, he deduced that it's either I used too much strength or that I pinched my nose when I sneezed, thus causing the pressure to accumulate at the eyeball and making the tiny blood vessels ruptured.

It's common actually. Which I didn't know.

It scared the freak outta me.

He said that theré were patients whose eyes were red all over.

Horrible!

Now I try to sneeze as loud as I can! HAHA!

Pinching is to mute the noise & the spreading of bacteria.

Yeah yeah, I will cover my nose with tissue ok.

Woke up with my breakfast waiting.

Some bread from Delifrance, but we put in our own lettuce, ham, egg & cheese.

The bread's kinda hard & dry. Not the type I like. I love croissants!

I finished it anyway.

As usual, eating while blogging.

I'm off to my massage!

Cya!

An Evening Out At Dempsey Hill

2011-03-07T22:04:00.000-08:00

Spent most of my sunday relaxing at home & blogging.

Hence, it was such a good idea to go out for dinner, dessert & movie.

Jumbo @dempsey.

We had a hard time deciding what to eat.

Stirred-fry Baby Kailan with sambal: It would be even better if there's more sambal.

Prawns with salted egg: Delicious! Rich, thick salted egg yolk all over.

But I got too sick of it after 4 prawns.

Scallops in yam rings: Quite average. Maybe bcos I ain't a yam lover.

Phoenix Chix(half): Except for the wing at the bottom of this photo, the rest of the meat is actually sotong paste. The creativity was placing the chicken skin over it so that it really looked like a plate of roasted chicken.

She looked happy in this photo, before the bill came.

LOL!

Happy that I got the swing bench at Ben&Jerry's.

We got our ice cream at half price cos of some online deal she bought.

After filling our stomachs to the max, we went to Downtown East to catch a

horror show "My Ex Haunted Lover".

I didn't puke my food out, fortunately.

Lioele Beyond Solution BB Cream

2011-03-07T15:33:00.000-08:00

Lioele - Beyond Solution BB Cream,10ml at $2.40.

It's good if you just want to try this out instead of purchasing the retail size.

Oh yes, I got it from Lush Beauty.

After 15mins of the BB cream application.

It should have oxidised enough if it would.

The color of the BB cream is slightly darker (on hand & after applying) than those I've used.

However, it suits me fine as I sometimes find other BB creams a little too fair.

I am already very fair, but I didn't like that slight color difference in the face & neck.

I dislike having to apply all the way to the neck as my skin tends to produce oil faster.

In the photo above, I only blend the BB cream from the centre of the face and out.

Natural, isn't it?

I wish I have my before photo to show you how sensitive my skin is most times.

I have red patches.

This is since young & it has already improved compared to the past.

Here's what I think:

Coverage? Above the average, but not too thick which I like.

Texture? Not runny like the rest I used. Holds on fine.

Color Tone? Good for me.

Lasting? At least a half day.

Moisturizing? Not as hydrating as the others I've used.

But then it also means that my face will not get oily as fast.

Sounds good or not? You be your own judge.

I rate it a 7/10.

However, I'll still be looking out for that BB cream that not only covers the flaw but appears luminous just like I have nothing on.

Bold Brows Or Not

2011-03-07T13:22:00.000-08:00

Bought a couple of mini eyebrow pencils from Daiso, IMM, some time back.

It's in brown.

This is how my brow looks like after using.

Tip: Do not exert too much pressure. Just sweep lightly as color can turn out a little dark.

Who says I can't draw with a $2 eyebrow pencil?

Can you actually see the difference by using a cheap pencil and an expensive one on others?

I don't, seriously.

While I was waiting restlessly to go out, I started playing with some hair rollers.

So much better than headbands! Haha!

This photo is the much nicer version already!

Ms Sim received my mms edited monster version.

;-D

I'll Never Fall

2011-03-05T13:28:00.000-08:00

After that terrible mdis experience, I'm back again! ;-p

I've decided on the school. And it's very near to some place I always like going to. ;-)

The next thing is to go down to the place early next week to "feel" the atmosphere

& as well as do the application.

I hope nothing goes wrong, that I'm still in time for the coming intake & pray hard that the administration on this side will not disappoint me.

I was stuck in between Kaplan and this institute. After checking all aspects(not talking about the course here), what draws me to this institute is its location & accessibility.

Hear my good news soon!

DIY Facial

2011-03-03T16:41:00.000-08:00

It's raining again!

What could be the best thing to do with this kinda weather?

I was getting sleepy, but I didn't want to sleep.

Hence, I decided to do my own mini facial & try out that new Lioele Blackhead Clear Lotion!

I got this Lioele Blackhead Clear 200ml from Lush Beauty at just $9! (Original price: $30)

I will not be rating this product since it's only my first try. Instead I will just share with you(for those who don't know this product) how to use it. ;-)

How to use:

1) Cleanse your face.

2) Put a steamed towel over the face/parts that you want to remove the blackheads to "öpen" up the pores.

I didn't exactly steam the towel. I soaked it in lukewarm-hot water.

Of cos, pls don't force yourself if it's too hot!

For those who preferred to do this after a hot shower, it works fine too!

3) Pump a decent amount of the Blackhead Clear Lotion onto a cotton pad like photo below & leave it on the area, eg. the nose, for approximately 15-20mins.

It will supposingly soften the dead skin cells & sebum.

4) Lightly do an extraction. (I'm referring to myself)

darn, i hate this part!

5) Tone & put a mask on for 15-20mins!

I'm using LUS Tomato Essence Mask ($0.60 from Lush Beauty).

I did a light tapping motion on the face & eyes with the mask on to aid blood circulation & also for relaxation.

Massage the excess essence into the neck area.

For me, the mask was so moist that I rubbed the essence onto my hands, legs & even shoulders too(an area that I always miss out moisturizing)

(psst! I like the LUS Red Ginseng Mask too!!)

After I removed the mask, I continued doing lympathic drainage/massaging the leftover essence on the face for a good 2-3mins until it's fully absorbed and at the same time lifting & firming the face more.

That's it!

A home DIY mini maintenance facial only cost me less than $1!

I usually go to beauty salons only when I need that shoulder massage & to clean up the face thoroughly.

Hope this has been useful to you & enjoy DIY-ing!

ElishaCoy Ice Herb Whitening Water Drop

2011-03-02T19:41:00.000-08:00

Ice Herb Whitening Water Drop, 20g.

I was so elated when I saw this product selling for $1 on Lush Beauty's site!

So cheap, of cos I must try right?

Anyway, I have a thing for gel/lotion based moisturizers as they not only do their job of hydrating, they do not cause the skin to get too oily.

This product is just like a gel essence.

Upon applying some onto my face, I was greeted by this refreshing smell.

It smells very clean & pure. Haha. I have no idea where I derive this from. But it's really what I feel.

As soon as the gel got in touch with the skin, it seems to turn into water droplets.

Definitely feels like water on the skin.

The only difference is that this "water" actually penetrates & be absorbed.

During the days I just apply this Ice Herb Whitening Water Drop after toning, then my sunscreen/BB cream.

I'll add on another cream moisturizer after this for the night for that extra moisture.

Check out Lush Beauty site at http://www.secretive.sg/ or like them on FB here.

No Monday Blues!

2011-03-01T23:48:00.000-08:00

Dressed casual with attitude cos it's monday and I didn't feel blue!

Okie, I know there's no link.

It's just my excuse to wear casual. Something I can never wear to work. On a Monday especially.

Woohoo!

Can I celebrate my freedom some more?!

My current fav cap with bling-bling skulls.

Puffy white top.

Dark navy blue shorts.

Black Star necklace.

Black wristlet with stars and pearls.

Black little rugged boots.

(cant see in photo, but i wore it before. Click previous post here to see)

I'm using Lioele beyond the solution BB cream.

(Will review it after more tries!)

And some sales guy asked her are we malaysians.

hmmm.... does my chinese sounds weird or I simply don't look like singaporean?

Headed to Lurvos at Ion B3.

I think this pink polka ribbon with black feathers looks great on her!

Instantly glam up the outfit!

What do you think?

There's also 1 Daiso outlet at Ion.

Of cos I go browsing there.

There's always so many things different coming up & being sold in the shop, different branches.

Bought my disposable powder puff in 10pieces for my compact powder.

10pcs for $2!

I can use as many as I like!

Came across this Royal Jelly Lotion which I've never seen before.

Once again, I got courageous & bought it to try!

Another secretive parcel awaits!

A Fellow Piscean's 27th

2011-03-01T16:52:00.000-08:00

After the brunch at Amici & some strolling at Bottle Tree Park, rushed to Cal's house for Kat's birthday celebration (in advance too!)

They had buffet at home & friends over for a casual gathering/food session.

Cal trying to open the HUGE box of cake.

She promised that it would surprise us.

what could it be?

I was thinking sure something to do with Pisces.

Cal actually set up a "Änti-Pisces Club"on Facebook quite a long time back.

;-S

OMG!

Before the box could be taken away, those with cameras were already trying to sneak a shot!

Few of them trying to lift the box off.

A Mermaid cake!

And soooo sexy!!

Haha... the photo of Kat licking the cream off shall not be published here.

My fellow Piscean, Kat, with her beautiful mermaid.

Making her wish.

Saw her mum on the left? wishing on her behalf too.

Awww.... she's so sweet.

After all the photo-taking, Cal excitedly pulled the mermaid off from her tail.

*Not for kids' view* ;-D

The sicko Cal laughing to herself & muttering: "Bye Pisceans!" (FYI, I put her words in a nicer way)

(She's gonna get into trouble with all the pisceans around her)

Whatever's left of the cake after the mermaid got her 2 legs & was enjoying a shower given by Kat's mum.

Didn't have the chance to take photos with the rest & most importantly the birthday girl!

She was so busy being a good host!

The only person I managed to have photos taken with was Elaine.

And me trying to suck in my cheeks so I don't look too fat beside her.

Dad's Advance Birthday Brunch at Amici Italian Restaurant

2011-03-01T14:56:00.000-08:00

Sunday morning.

We all piled into uncle's 8-seater to head down to Holland Village for our brunch

cum Dad's advance birthday treat.

Can see that I was still very tired?

Slept 4 hours and had a long day ahead.

Please don't mind my fat grin as it was hard to capture this, trying to turn my back as best as I could whie the car's moving.

Amici Italian Restaurant at crowded Holland Village.

This is actually the backdoor?

I suppose so cos the other entrance is neater and more spacious.

I sat right in front of this.

And tried to be very careful in case I broke all the bottles.

We had a complimentary bottle of white wine!

Cheers!

The family.

If I'm not wrong, we had a good deal here.

4 main courses entitled us to 2 free main courses.

Calamari!

We weren't really very hungry, hence we didn't order too much.

Crabmeat Aglio Olio. (not the actual name)

The crabmeat were fresh & delicious!

Baby tomatoes to kick off that seafood taste!

Crayfish Linguine.

Sis was loving it!

Lamb shank was "öut of stock". So Dad's were replaced with Lamb Loin. (not found on the menu)

It isn't that bad considering that I am not a mutton lover.

Smoked Salmon & Caviar Linguine.

Mum & Uncle had the same one as me.

Fine for me. The cream sauce was very filling.

Ordered this Ham & Mushroom Tortellini for grandma.

It looked so appetising! So was the taste.

This tiramisu slice was on the house.

For birthday special!

Dad was a lil stunned when the waitress brought the cake from behind him & telling him "Happy Birthday".

After this meal, he was saying he was craving for ba-chor mee. ;-|

Yeah, Dad loves chinese food still.
