As we just went past our 5th anny, this was then a first time celebrating Abg Tofik's birthday with him. Well, you can ask him personally...that he hasn't celebrated his birthday for quite sometime. Not with someone special as he was single for 4yrs already and to be able to have me by his side was a blessing and it made him a happy man. That was what I was told. Alhamdulillah.
Anyway, the day didn't start off well for me honestly. I mean, how frustrating can it be when I have already got everything planned so cun cun and of all the days and of all the things, this had to happen? *frust tonggeng*
When I said this had to happen simply means when I woke up in the morning yesterday to get ready to start off with the plans, I had sore eyes. Yes. My right eye was so red and I was in pain each time I blinked my eye and it swell and it wouldn't stop tearing. As I was fasting, I tried so hard to calm myself down. I did all I could to make the eyesore better. I cleaned my eyes, used Optrex, applied ice to bring the swelling down... you name it lah.. I did everything. But it was not meant to be. So I thought, "Alah, takpe, nanti mesti oknyee.." And so I got ready, didn't apply any makeup as I didn't want to irritate the eye further and went to execute my plan to surprise Abg Tofik.
Met him at Raffles City and I surprised him with balloons and yes he carried it all the way where-ever we went. He looked so cute :) Since I had the eye sore, the actual surprise (which is actually my birthday present for him) had to be rescheduled. Shall not say anything yet lah kan, might as well wait for the pix to be up. *grins* Since my plan backfired, I spent the day with Abg Tofik playing pool, we bowled and even watched a movie. Perhaps it sounded lame, but it made Abg Tofik still a happy man despite not being able to have the actual surprise. For me, if he's happy then I am happy.
And despite me being cranky due to the eye sore, Abg Tofik never failed to stay positive and in fact, he even cheered me up. How can I not love this man rite? I can't help but feel so disappointed when things didn't work out the way I wanted to be and I had hoped that things would get better as the hours passes. It did! For the later part of the day, I had arranged a surprise gathering for iftar @ Amara and also to celebrate Abg Tofik's birthday with the close friends. It was splendid! I can never thank them enough for making the effort to come and to make the day even better.
To Bestie, Ashraf, Za, Aiman, Shasha, Love, Ewok, Adik and Aimyn, thank you for coming and making the celebration a great one. Your presence is much appreciated from me and Abg Tofik. Bestie - Thank you for all the help and for everything. I can always count on you *hugs*
Anyway, I don't wanna blog too much so I guess I just wait for the pictures to be uploaded. So before I end this entry, I wanna wish HAPPY BIRTHDAY to all the SEPTEMBER babies!
And last but not least, for my dearest Abg Tofik...
Dearest Dee,
I hope what I have given you on your birthday had put many smiles on your face.
Though part of it didn't turn out pretty well, but I hope to make it up to you.
I am sorry if my crankyness have disturbed you a lil on your birthday
(which shouldn't be the case...), please forgive me ok?
I hope all your wishes come true and may Allah bless you with good health and keep you in HIS good faith. I look forward to celebrating your birthday with you every year....
P/s: I meant every word I say in the card tau *winks*
Lots of Love,
Ann
