The clock ticked 12am and it was Friday, 10th September 2010 that this big day began.
I secretly organised this birthday surprise just for him. I invited his ex-schoolmate, Vincent, who studies in the same university as I do and few others whom he got to know here in church and another friend of mine who has the same name as him, Louis. haha...
And here we went. A Swiss chocolate cake I bought from King's Bakery (it's so cheap coz I got 40% off for that =D) just for him. It's yummy! My brother agreed even though he haven't tried it. Ridiculous huh? Well, he's right. After all, never judge a book by its cover. =)
The imminent candle blowing moment which followed by the cake-cutting ceremony was humbly accomplished with my brother making his wish/wishes (I wonder what was his wish =P ). In his usual nonchalant manner, he cut the cake and Vincent helped him to distribute the cakes. All of us had a good chat and a good laugh! My friend, Louis has a really good sense of humour. He made all of us laughed till our heads off! Two friends leave the house as they had something on so left the four of us: 2 Louis, Denise and me; laughing like a lunatic!
While they chatted, I took this opportunity to snap their pictures. Though most of the pictures are blur due to my shaky hands (or in other words, I'm unskilled ==|| ), I was satisfied enough because I can capture the elated moments of this small yet simple birthday party of his.=)
It was 1.30am when things officially ended. Sadly, moments will always be moments. It was something that happened in the past although moments ago, we were happily celebrating his birthday and now, the moments had come to a halt, not entirely but temporary because, hey...it's just midnight remember? We still had another whole day of Friday to celebrate it! So yeah, Happy Birthday to my dear Di Di! I hope that his birthday on that very day was memorable for him to be imbued in his mind, now and ever.
love from sis,
