at Manesh...then italian restaurant.

Today is Sarah Jane’s birthday. Sarah is one of my group mates. We’ve been group mates since the first year it self. Time really flies; it has been almost 4 years we knew each other. So, today, after class, we walked to Manesh together. It was kind of an excursion- according to Sarah, the birthday girl.
We went into the shopping complex. There were many branded shops here, like the New Yorker, Mango, Jennifer, Sela, Tvoe, Modis, United color of Benetton, Adidas, Reebok, and so on. There is a food court at the top floor. Wow, the food here was extremely expensive. Thus, Ming suggested that, we’ll do the shopping first, and followed by lunch. Goodness me; for a while, Sam, Sarah, Halley, Ming, Sien Mei & Liam, were out of my vision. So, left me, Pauline, we were just walking around. We then, decided to go to the supermarket, at the ground floor. Manesh can be considered one of the most established shopping complex, here in Kursk. There was a skating ring at the compound of the complex during the winter, while a tent for beer, during summer.
After an hour of shopping, we then, proceed to the nearest Italian restaurant for lunch. This year, we have an ice cream cake for Sarah. Halley bought from the supermarket. It was a chocolate ice cream cake. While waiting for our orders to come, we celebrated Sarah’s birthday. She cut her chocolate ice cream cake, as we sang the last verse of happy birthday song to her. Well, it has been our group 12 tradition, to sing only the last verse of the birthday song, to any of our group mates who celebrate his or her birthday especially in any restaurant. Perhaps, we were too shy to sing it in the public, as there will always many eyes staring on us.
After lunch, we went back to our respective places. As I was on the trolley bus from the Italian restaurant, I was able to peep at the temperature house and it was written, 23.7 C. praise the Lord! I thank GOD for such a good weather, here now. I believe, starting today, we’ll be able to enjoy our summer.
