I love coffee! Especially when it's ice cold and with milk!

Birthday Special 3: Favourite present

My favourite birthday present was the one I received in Seconday 1, from Bernice.

It was a piano book.

It had piano scores of some popular English songs.

It wasn't the book that was special, it was her thoughtfulness that really touched me.

A few weeks before that birthday, I told her that I wanted to buy such a book. At that time, I didn't meant it as a hint or anything like that. It was just a casual comment.

Then on my birthday, she gave me a present all wrapped up.

I didn't know what it was but I could tell it was a book because of it's shape.

I tried hard to guess but couldn't get it right.

Bernice said I could only open it home so I could only try to guess what was inside.

I guessed all sorts of books like notebooks, cookbooks...

I never, never thought it would be a piano book because I had already forgotten about it.

In the end, Bernice said I could open it and I realised it was a piano book.

I was really touched because she actually remembered what I said although it was only a casual comment.

I didn't cry or anything, but I felt touched.

This is one of my favourite birthday presents, because it was such a thoughtful gesture!
