Of New Laptops and a Special Someone's Birthday

It's finally here...... It's FINALLY here..!!
My 17-inch Gateway FX!!

Came in the mail like 5 days ago. The box was massive. Was so so excited that I just tore the box and wrappings open to have a look at it, hid it in the room and took dinner, and ran right back to it. It's so huge, it dwarfs my Sony Vaio.

Sony Vaio, you have served me for 4 years now and I appreciate everything you have done for me.
But as the Windows XP in you ages, and the wireless button loosens, it's time you serve someone who isn't as fussy as me -- my mum. You'd be well on your way back to Malaysia soon enough.

NVIDIA GeForce GGTX 260M
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
Now for my Razor mouse to arrive.

Anyway, on to what's more important..

Happy 23rd Birthday Dear!! 

This little baby girl turned 23 3 days ago.

We initially planned to go to this Brazilian place, but it cost like $55 per person and it's buffet style, so we figured it might not be worth it since baby can't really eat much. Instead, we went to Fat Salmon on 8th Street (Aaron's recommendation), and we did not regret one bit (I didn't at least, saved me $50!)
Some salmon dish.
All their dishes names were too fancy for me to remember all of them, but they were awesome!
I would reckon this is some unagi dish. One of the better dishes!
Bi & I!
Waitress didn't do too bad a job in snapping it in such a dark setting.

Since baby always had a sweet tooth, we then headed to Naked Chocolate for some dessert/chocolate, arguably the best chocolate place (vs Max Brenner's) in philly :) I was extremely full by then, but bi has a separate stomach for desserts so it was all good.
Absolutely stunning :)
No pictures of chocolate since I took it blur, surgeon hands taking weekend off, haha!

The next day when we got back home from dinner, I was rushing to watch the Boston-Orlando match. Orlando disappointingly lost, but anyway, not the point, lol. The rest of the Malaysians gathered on the 2nd floor to surprise her with a birthday cake. Chocolate truffle cake, gonna get fat man.
Surprise! In her room.
The Malaysian Peeps!
Sue Yueh, Lay Queen, Hong Mun, Joshua, Bi, Me, Aaron, Yinn Cher (in his blardy scrubs), Kim Loon.
Didn't put my watermark on the pictures because the 2 pictures above are courtesy of Kim Loon! Love his SB-600 flash, need to learn how to use mine soon before class starts.

Okay, time for supper with the belated birthday girl ♥ and a nice movie on my Gateway's 17-inch HD screen. Lol! Still trying to recover the damn corrupted files/photos from my memory card.
