Hello~
How do you like your birthday to be celebrated? For me, I look forward to my birthday ever since I got together with my dear as he always never fails to give me the happiest celebration every year (/^▽^)/!
I consider myself a very lucky girl （⌒▽⌒）!!
So this year, my dear planned a trip to adventurous cove and the sea aquarium!!
The Sentosa water park is a lot smaller than I have expected and overly crowded ≧△≦. The queue for one tube ride took approximately 30 minutes and it lasted not more than a minute. However, I did enjoy my dear pushing me through the adventure river while I sat on a big float hehe~
We didn't manage to take many photos as I had left my Iphone in the locker.
This is the only photo we took together after we were done playing with the rides ヾ(☆▽☆) .
Moving on, my dear brought me over to the hotel that he had booked for my birthday stay over!
It's at the upscale luxury 5-stars hotel, Movenpick Heritage~
Loving this photo taken by my dear at their all-green entrance ('∀'●)♡
The hallway to our room
Going in~
行きましょう ~\(//∇//)\!!
At first glance when we opened the door...
It brought us into an elegant long hallway that lead to the bedroom (//ω//) .
That's my dear who instantly made himself comfortable on the sofa while I did the unpacking >-<"
Our lovely spacious bedroom with a king-size bed~
You can actually view the big and horizontally long washroom from here...
( ─▽─ )
There's even a walk-in wardrobe!!
とても素晴らしい (ﾉﾟ0ﾟ)ﾉ~
Our big and deep bathtub...
...that we took our bubble bath in ( ◠ ‿ ◠) v
Cute looking dim sum containers...
...used to put small face and hand wash and other toilet utilities.
That's just so creative huh ヾ(´▽｀;)ゝ??
My dear's favorite corner~
It's the place where he spent most of his time playing with the coffee maker and showing off how much of a genius he is at coffee making.
So I ended up drinking many cups of sweet coffee that he made for me hehe
(-^〇^-)~
(-^〇^-)~
My dear booked the new heritage room that offers the stunning view of the Merlion
美しい o(≧▽≦)o!!
While he was out to get me my surprise birthday cake, I got bored and started to camwhore~
My newly digital perm mermaid-wave hair ◕‿◕｡
How do you like it?
My new hair is really easy to set - All I need to do is apply some wave styling foam and I'm ready to go!
Goodbye to my bulky curler and annoying hairspray (*≧▽≦)ﾉ... I'm so glad I do not have to use you anymore~
Anyway, my dear came back half an hour later with....
My birthday cake from awfully chocolate (/‾▿‾)/!!
He remembered how I once told him that I would like to try their banana chocolate cake, thus he planned for one to be delivered to our hotel for my birthday!
He's just soooo sweet (´∀｀)♡~
However, awfully chocolate service was really bad (#゜皿゜)! They promised to deliver by 4pm but only reached Sentosa at 6pm. Furthermore, the deliveryman ended up at the wrong hotel and lost his way, forcing my dear to wait for him for 30 minutes at the hotel lobby >0<!! It didn't just end there...
The cake cost around $34 and they charged $30 for delivery (How can they turned up late when the delivery was close to the price of the cake?!).
That's a total cost of $64.
So, when my overpriced birthday cake finally arrived at the hotel, my dear gave $65, but was told by the delivery person that he didn't have any change with him!! How can he not bring any spare change when his job was to deliver?! I was so angry when I heard about it, and I would have not paid for the cake if I were there! I'm someone who do not mind giving tips, but I will not give a penny to anyone who provide such bad service! My close friend was right. The cake wasn't even fabulous. It tasted pretty awful - and according to her, that's how the name Awfully Chocolate came about.
I totally regretted telling my dear that I wanted to try that cake, making him pay for something that's not even worth half the price, and wasting his time waiting.
Awfully Chocolate is officially on my blacklist now!
But despite the frustration for my dear, I am still very happy that he didn't mind going through the hassle to get the birthday cake for me.
He's a real sweetheart (＾▽＾)❤.
Immediately after, my sweet dear brought me to my next birthday destination: The Sea Aquarium!
Thanks to the very delayed delivery, we only had an hour to spend in there ≧△≦.
Nevertheless, we managed to complete exploring the entire place within that give time.
Credit to my dear for all the beautiful pictures taken in the Sea aquarium
( ﾟзﾟ)
Pardon my scary face ( ꒪Д꒪)ノ... and focus on the lovely sea view behind me.
Giant Spider Crab!!
It even gave us a cool pose as we took its photo hehe >‿<~
These are jelly fishes!
とても美しい (≧∇≦)!!
They can appear blue too...
Actually it's just the lighting color that changes ~^-^~
This is another type of jelly fishes...
According to my dear, it's called Cassiopea andromeda.
A beautifully taken photo of a jelly fish （ ・∀・）
みごとね (^-^*)/ ~
More stunning jelly fishes photos!
This is one of my favorite shots taken by my dear!
He's so talented hehe ('∀'●)♡~
This is the world largest viewing panel which gave us the feel of being in the ocean floor.
すごい(ﾉﾟ0ﾟ)ﾉ!!
Thus, we spent the most time there observing~
My dear took an amazing photo of a giant lobster!!
It look so beautifully yummy hurhur (゜∀゜)~
The Moral eels, which according to my dear, are the most dangerous eels in the ocean 0.0...
...and they love to hide inside the gaps of the ocean rocks and other objects.
More photos of the moral eel~
Overall, it was a pretty good experience although I would love to have seen more sharks and big whales, but I think the best place all sea creatures should be in is still the big blue ocean ^-^.
After our dinner, we went back to our hotel and enjoyed a cup of delicious coffee prepared by my dear Noel...
...as we comfortably watched late night TV together (｡•ˇ₃ˇ•｡)
Then off to bed I went while my dear finally get to spend some time with his laptop hehe~
As for my birthday gift this year, he got for me a Nitendo 3DS (Pearl Pink) that I have always wanted
(*˘︶˘*).｡.:*♡ .
Actually, he gave me many months ago so I do not have to wait until my birthday to play my favorite games!
Thank you so much for being so thoughtful dear ♥_♥!
❤ I'm going to end this post with one of my favorite old photos of us ❤
There are many girls who hope for a prince charming as their life partner, and I'm so lucky to have found one.
