Dad's Birthday

Since someone "pestered" me this morning about updates on my blog (haven't I been updating it? haha), I decided to just PLEASE him and blog about yesterday evening.

It was Dad's birthday yesterday. So it was solely family evening. But because Dad had to visit my family GP to collect his full medical report, we were unable to go for an expensive dinner. Dad suggested having something simple (I wonder if it's because he wanna save money), and since it's his day, we'll just oblige.

Dinner was at Crystal Jade in Parkway. The food wasn't too bad, and I went to buy a cake secretly while the family was waiting for the food. Then when I came back with the cake, Mum said she should have told me earlier not to buy cos Marriot Hotel specially sent down a cake to my house earlier in the day as it's Dad's birthday. Hmm..how come Dad has such benefits?

Despite having 2 cakes, we did not even cut any, and did not even sing any birthday song! Mum felt it wasn't needed and just meant for kids. Since when?! I didn't know that there's an age limit for doing these!

Anyway, on the way home, there was a darn comical conversation going on in Dad's car. It's about Mum going out of point and then the rest of us were like ignoring her. She continued going out of point until we couldn't stand it and had to let her know that she's not talking about the same thing as us. Aiya..sounds complicated huh? But I'm too lazy to type out the details. Was telling Jon about it yesterday and he was luffing his head off..and I was as well when I was telling him about it.

Oh yes oh yes, I've got a new camera!!!!!!!!!

No doubt it was Dad's birthday yesterday, I got a present instead. Erm..nope...he's got a present as well (Guy Laroche shirt). I didn't even pay a single cent for it cos Mum paid..haha..ok..I'm terrible. I shall pay her my share soon since I'm not that financially tight this month.

I have yet to play ard with my cam. It's the Canon Digital Ixus 40. Dad said it's good, so he just bought it. I don't know why he claims that it's good. I didn't bother to really check up on this product too. I just want a cam that can be used. I'm not as fussy as him and Frederick. Mum will be the new owner of my old Fujifilm Finepix 50i.

My new cam's really small and light, and because of this, it looks soooooo vulnerable to damage. But I like it very much. I shall use it to take lots of photos when I go back to UK, especially when I go to Nottingham. :)

I have got a list of have-to-buy written down. Shall continue thinking what else I have to add to the list before I go out next week to buy all of them one shot. I'll have to do spring cleaning of the Study room next week too. *feels busy*

Had a discussion with Mum about my worry on the accomodation in UK next semester. I'll be moving out, and I will have to find a place asap. Hence, the suggestion of moving my return date one day earlier than the changed schedule. I have already moved my date 1 week forward from the original and now I'm still moving it forward!

I really hope I can get back to UK asap to settle the accomodation issue or else I won't have a peace of mind manz. I just hate having worries, cos they can really affect my concentration.

And I can't wait to go to Notts!!!!! Even the "What to do in Notts" list have been typed out!! Hahahaahahha...
