Earliest birthday present ever aka Birthday Present Surprise FAILED

Yes, I am back in Kampar. 8 am class starts tomorrow.

Trip back was tiring. Spent most of the time worrying I couldn't catch the 3 pm train back. My flight arrived at around 1.35 pm and after all the walking and baggage claiming, the KLIA express took off for Central at 2.20 pm. By the time I hurried to the waiting area, it was already around 2.50 pm. Anyway, my energy was wasted on worrying because the train only left at around 3.17 pm.

I sat next to this middle aged uncle who kept striking up conversation with me. It got annoying fast and the annoyance overflowed right before I stepped off the train. The old bugger had the audacity to ask me to 'exercise more'. He should go screw himself. I don't need people calling me FAT thank you very much. Not old uncles with bulging tummies themselves and definitely NOT STRANGERS.

Ahem. Moving on the happier topics.

Referring to the topic above, I received a birthday present just today. Well, it was meant to be a surprise but all was uncovered in the end.

While I was back in Miri, Ai Ling headed down to KL to do some shopping. She told me some time back that it was for my birthday present but gave little hint as to what it was. On a Saturday, we did a bit of smsing as I was suppose to go over to her house to collect something from her parents and I randomly asked her where was she. She told me she was in Sunway so I asked her to help me check out some Dooodolls. If you don't know what that is, click here. Aside from a Domo-kun, I've always wanted one of these.

Why? I don't know. Adorable they are.

So she said she'll help me check it out but never returned to me on that matter which I thought was pretty weird.

When I got back to the apartment today, I asked her again and this time, she avoided my question by pretending she did not hear me! Ah-ha! So it was then when I suspected something strange. Hmm.

Over dinner, she finally admitted that she did help me check out the Dooodolls in Sunway and then it dawned on me that the reason she was being so secretive was because she got me one for my birthday! Haha! Anyway, she's a terrible liar. Everything can be seen from her face so she admitted it without admitting it.

The next problem was to find where it was hidden. On a whim, I started searching the corner where our luggages and bags are placed and nearly immediately found it there. =.=

I've called this Birthday Present Surprise FAILED but indeed, I am very touched at the gesture and the gift.

My life is almost complete. Now, how about that Domo-kun? Hoho.



Say Hello to Butch.



See it ROAR.



Butch's profile. It's actually flat and so huggable! It has little beans as stuffing at the stomach area while the rest is cotton.

Heart shaped cookies. Don't know how long this will survive since it's basically being eaten everyday.






Cornflake cookies! Has milk powder in it was it is quite milk powdery. Hmm.
The recipe said each cookie was 8 gm in weight so I weighed every single one of them. Yes, I can be anal like that.



Cheese cookies! Pretty yummy.



Had lunch on Friday with the siblings and cousins at Zaika.

Over all, the food was awesome but I'd have second thoughts about coming here again due to the price.

Good girl, aren't I?

My legs are feeling pretty sore right now. Gotta go sleep for tomorrow's class.

Till then.
