79 this year




my grandmother just turned 79 today. how proud am i to be one of her many grandchildren (so lazy to count the current figures ler... lol) and the first grand-daughter among all.

puteri and i didn’t sleep the whole night you know. well, puteri did get some one to two hours sleep though. we started our baking session after 10pm last night. we baked butter cupcakes with some special decoration. i am very much understood that cupcakes are the “in” thingy at the moment. so we ought that why not if we too could try it this time around.

i was at the pc when my sister called the house telephone to wish grandmother. by that time i have already loaded some of the cup cakes pictures in my flickr account. wa lau lay… she asked grandmother about it. my god! she (grandmother) don’t know yet ler… it was a secret. then grandmother went back upstairs as she was in the mid of getting ready to come down. as soon as she entered the patio, which is also our day-time dining area; she was surprised when seeing the birthday cupcakes that puteri and i baked specially for her. she was in tears. the above picture was part of our creations. you could view more pictures here.

the main house telephone was like hot-line. everyone— mainly family, relatives and friends from far and near started calling grandmother. it was always like this every time. it was easy for them to get in touch with grandmother because we didn’t go anywhere this time. megat is still having his chicken-pox. i remember when i brought her to cameron highlands last year, my cell-phone was ringing non-stop as soon as we reached up there lol.

by noon, i brought grandmother and puteri out for lunch at a local café called gate café. we didn’t let her to cook today. if not, she likes to do the cooking herself almost everyday. when we were out, i also took the chance to send a box each of the cup cakes for two of my aunties (my dad's elder and younger sisters). they were not allowed to come to our place for the time being. their household got kids too, just afraid that the kids would catch megat’s virus ;)

we reached back home by 4.30pm. guess what people. i doze-off right away at our day-bed located at the patio, accompanied by megat. i managed to cover about 2 hours sleep— auntie kay who was happened to be here for a function dropped-by to see grandmother. hmm… never mind. i’ll make sure that i get a very good sleep tonight. how’s your weekend people. hope that you too had a great one.
