Today is my birthday. I turn 5, and because it's my special day, I didn't have to go to school today, and could spend time with Daddy and Mummy today. We went cycling on the new bike that Ye Ye and Nai Nai had bought for me. And because it's my special day, Mummy agreed to buy me a yummy unhealthy doughnut, haha. In the evening, we went to Spizza for dinner again. This time, we ordered dessert, and when the waiter knew that it was my birthday, the cake came with a candle for me to blow out.
Today is also a special day because I am now a big girl. I had promised Daddy and Mummy that from today, I wouldn't drink milk from a bottle anymore. More importantly, I promised them that I would no longer suck my thumb from today, so wish me luck!
Although my actual birthday isn't until a few days later, I had my birthday party today. We celebrated it at the function room of Maggie Lao Ee's house. the same place where my birthday party was two years ago. This year, I made Daddy and Mummy buy a sleeping beauty cake for me.
All my family was there, including Grandpa and Ah Ma, Ye Ye and Nai Nai.
Mummy thought that it would be very funny to reuse the birthday decoration from my cake, so this is where she put it:
Everybody gave me a lot of presents. I had two new bags, many princess things like dresses, water bottle, plate and stationary, some books and toys. I even made two of my Ee Ees play with me on the floor.
Edgar Ku Ku also entertained me. I don't get to see him much, so it was quite fun playing balloons with him.
Mummy had bought a pair of matching T-shirts when we were in Cambridge last week. Nice?
Today's the last day of our holiday, and we will be flying home tonight. Mummy had her graduation ceremony yesterday, and Daddy and I were proud to be there at the Senate House. I saw Mummy kneel in front of a man who was dressed like a king, and saw the man hold Mummy's hand and bless her. I am very proud of my Mummy.
We also spent part of yesterday reliving old memories. While Mummy was in school doing her class photo-taking, Daddy brought me to the huge playground at Lama's Land. The place looks different now, with many new things that weren't here last year.
Daddy and I also went to visit the ducks at the pond. Ssssh, Mummy doesn't know that we didn't finish the sandwich that she had made for us for breakfast and that I had given some of it to the ducks.
When Mummy was done with photo-taking, we went back to Churchill College to have tea with our old neighbours. I met Roni, who's now almost as tall as me. We also took a photo in front of our old flat. It's no longer ours though, and there's a new family staying in it. I hope they too have happy times in there.
This morning, we paid a short visit to my old school Patacake. Even though it's Sunday and no one would be in school today, it was still nice to walk around the outside. It was a pity that I didn't get to meet my teachers and old friends.
