Deric's birthday
It's Deric's birthday today! After my Japanese class, I met up with Elaine and we had our dinner together at Xing Wang Hong Kong restaurant, and we each ordered a bowl of century egg porridge with some Har Gau before we left for Deric's birthday celebration.
We reached Deric's house at about 2100hrs and Deric had already changed into his nice new clothes. And before the celebration started, Deric came to me and proudly announced that he had managed to memorise 10 hiragana letters already. Hmm... seems like this boy is really all set to pick up this new language:)
Once everyone was ready (Deric's Daddy, Mummy, Elaine, Me and the most funniest man.... Deric's Gong Gong) the celebration began.
The cake, the candles, the camera were all set and Deric was already sitting before the cake waiting to make his birthday's wish but Deric's Gong Gong was still in the room. When he finally came out, Deric's Mummy noticed that Gong Gong's shirt was being worn inside-out, and so she told him to turn it over. Without a word, he turned back, and I saw him taking his shirt out and flipping it over before wearing it again, but after that he went back to his room. All of us were so puzzled, not knowing why did he go back to his room when he had already worn his shirt properly.
Few minutes later, Deric was starting to get worried because the candles on the cake were melting and Gong Gong was still in the room. And when Gong Gong came out, the puzzle was finally solved. He returned to his room to change into a nicer shirt, so that he would look better at his most doted grandson's birthday:) (but he could have just told us right?)
This year, we didn't sing any birthday song for Deric because he said that his classmates had sung to him already, and he said it was stupid:( So, Deric made his birthday wish, blown the candles, cut the cakes and pictures were taken. All of us happily sat around the cake, eating, talking and laughing away, while Deric's Gong Gong indulge himself with the delicious but very sweet cake...
Happy Birthday Deric! You are one year older liao, and that actually makes you 14 this year right? Time really flies, and it seems to me like it was only few days ago when you were just a cute little baby... Anyway, you have already become a handsome young man already and I am happy to see that too:)
