TWENTEEN!

yes. i turned twenteen yesterday. started the day off fairly well. few wishes here and there.

got in the office. again, few skype convos here and there. i had to pause every 20mins just so i could reply. i ended up not completing my work. -_-" was just having a MSN conversation with Yousuf when my phone rang at 11:28am. the number appeared was a pretty long one! and it didnt start of with '+65'. i figured, "now who is this bangla who called up the wrong number. should i answer it?" after what seemed like forever, i finally answered, and the person on the other end went, "Hi Has! This is Yousuf! HAAAAAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!"

LAUGHSOUTREALLYREALLYLOUD.

a faraway overseas call just to wish me happy birthday. then he said, "many happy returns of the day." i was speechless. i didnt know what to say, i didnt know how to react. i just said 'thank you' for like a zillion times. finally we hung up.

Poor chap is having a hell of a headache. "we were talking about you and i said your birthday is coming up so we dont know what to get you. sis suggest to get a dress for you. mom doesnt know how much chili you take. she intends to cook for you." and the list went on before i finally said, "sweets. just sweets from karachi." of which he replied, "yeah. i told them you would love sweets." :D

lunch, a bouquet of ferrero rochers. too pretty to eat lei. how? will upload the pic soon! i hope. got for the colleagues just donuts. prajib, of all the donuts, bit into one with durian filling and the gundu doesnt eat durian. SORRY LOR BRADER! MANA WA TAU!

The day went on as per normal. ok maybe a little more special.

i left office at 6pm sharp (!!!) and got a phone call as soon as i msged to leave office.

"eh wru? i coming to fetch you." i said, "erm nevermind lah i just meet you at blablablabla". "ok" and hang up was the next reply. train-ed and alighted and phone call again, "ok i fetch you frm the mrt station." got in the car. alot of hugs and kisses and wishes. manja lah katekan.

a big feast later on, with crayfish and crabs and prawns and baby squids and whatnots. i was filled. and of course, what's a birthday without someone trying to smash some cake in my face huh huh huh. pretty little chain that i got, which i ended up staring at when i was home thinking, "this is really pretty. too pretty. looks sooo fragile. what if i break it?" so, i had it kept away somewhere safe.

department gave me an Adidas watch. Thats about it!

I have a new found family over at Karachi, a really biiiig family over here, i am really blessed.
