My plan was to take a leave to celebrate my birthday with my family today. But I had few things that I had to settle today so I ended up of not taking a leave. But I had this terrible stomachache because I drank fresh milk before I slept yesterday. It “cleansed” my bowel alright.
After the MPPU1070 evaluation ended around 10am, I went to the office to submit the evaluation form. On my way, I met Yan. I told her that today is my birthday and she decided to give me a treat. Since it was still early, our plan to eat at the newly renovated Arked Meranti was shifted to SDS.
I had an embarrassing moment today when one of the waitresses at SDS brought a cake with candles and singing Happy Birthday to me. What!!!! At this age, I feel cringed rather than elated about it. Come on! I am already passed 40 and the last thing I want is to blow candles on my birthday. But I appreciate my colleague who wants to give me a surprise because she knows very well that I am not into that kind of festivities. Thanks for the thought and kind act. She squealed in delight when she saw my cringed face listening to the birthday song sang by the waitress.
I aim to take a leave next year on my birthday. I need to make a day to unwind from works and whatsnot.
