Lovely birthday treats!

To begin with I was thinking I shouldn't celebrate this birthday much and all the coming ones. I think it was age was bothering me, though I didn't feel my age at all! But what the heck, I went ahead and did things I've been wanting to do on the day of! 


So we headed to Cal Academy of Science in San Francisco (http://calacademy.org/). I've been dying to visit it and finally we made the trip. It was just amazing to spot so many different butterflies, birds, snakes, spiders and fishes! The moon jellies are always like wow-stuff and I had no idea that there are leafy sea dragons! The coral reefs were so pretty and the school of fishes both small and big all entertaining! Their planetarium show was pretty good and they had a global warming section. Overall, worth the trip. 


We had Japanese tea at Japanese tea garden right opposite the Academy. This place isn't worth the visit price, but the cherry blossoms were just so awesome. The sight is so lovely. For dinner we went to California Pizza kitchen, a place thats always good and dessert was molten chocolate cake at Chilis! (both places we have not been to in more than 2 years).You can never go wrong with 1200 calories in 1 dessert! LOL!


The best part is the celebration wasn't over yet! Hubby got me the iPhone and that's the new baby I carry everywhere and of course takes a lot of my attention. Besides, all the calls, pings and messages on Facebook were all very sweet.


I got lunch treat from a couple of friends and last night my sweet friend, N, took me for golgappas at this Indian store and took me for a movie "Game". The movie starred Abhishek Bachchan (which is perfect for me), it wasn't a great movie, but hey, we had a great time cracking ourselves up! 


The party isn't over yet...I booked a facial for myself and looking for some new hair cut I could get done! 


Oh well, after all that pre-birthday thoughts, I guess I'll hopefully enjoy all coming birthdays as well. I am still a kid at heart and believe will always be! And yea, age is just a number, I don't even look my age !
