The day started all fuzzy, with me being told to bring this and that, then we took a train to Fortitude Valley and had brunch at Campos Cafe.. IT WAS AWESOME LAH! I had a 4 stack ricotta and buttermilk pancake with vanilla mascrapone, maple syrup and topped with orange compote.. I MANAGED TO FINISH 2 and a 1/2 THICK PANCAKES LAH! With more taxing of food from one another.. OMG, THE FOOD IS REALLY REALLY GOOD! We really ate to our fill!
The wonderful brunch team!
Then we walked aimlessly to my next surprise, which is that we rented a car! Then we drove down to Astor Metropole hotel where I THOUGHT we were going to stay there.. I SERIOUSLY DID LAH! Until we kinda were waiting aimlessly in the lobby that i kinda figured out maybe we were not staying there, but meeting someone instead.. Then i was told to go out and i saw these two ladies that looked REALLY familiar, but i just cannot remember... UNTIL I TURNED TO MY RIGHT, OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I SERIOUS
Out of joy and shock, i cried.. Gave each other a good hug to start our exciting day.. HAHAZ! It was REALLY a SURPRISE LAH! I cannot imagine how much it must have cost him to take a plane here JUST TO CELEBRATE MY BIRTHDAY WITH ME!! THANK YOU SON!! No words can really truly express how happy, shocked, touched, excited and all the positive feelings you can ever find in the dictionary i am lah!
The plan was to go to DreamWorld, but due to time constraints, we changed our plans to Mt Cootha instead.. Went up there, enjoyed 2 scoops of ice-cream in the breeze while chatting, catching up with one another and stuff.. It was just so unbelievable! There were some points of time i felt like i was in Singapore, that is why Khairul is with me.. Then i would snap back and be like "OMG, he REALLY flew down to bring home to me!"
What more can i ask for? I am so blessed to have such a thoughtful, loving and AWESOME son lah please.. I am so so so happy!! Brought him around the city and then headed back to his hotel.. Then went for dinner with his real mum and grandma.. We went to eat Korean fod where we ordered so much and ate to our fill.. I SWEAR I HAVE NOT EATEN SO MUCH FOR SO LO
Before i left, i hugged Khairul's mum, grandma and him.. It was a short hug, but it was really so warm, it felt like home.. Promised them that i will visit when i am back in Singapore.. I am truly blessed to have known people like them, and i am truly truly touched..
Campus View babes, i will dedicate an entry for you babes tomorrow, after my exciting journey that starts at 730am in the morning.. But for now, i just want to say a BIG THANK YOU to you all, for helping Khairul in planning this surprise, making it the BESTEST, MOST AWESOME and simply just so WONDERFUL way to celebrate the last day before officially turning into an adult! I love you all...
