Birthday celebrations - 29

So, another year old... Perhaps another year wiser?

My birthday happened sometime this week on a weekday, where practically no one was available to celebrate, so I decided to celebrate the birthday tonight.

The evening started off with a fountain show. It was featured at the Place des Arts fountain, in the heart of the Quartier des spectacles. It was a 20 minute show with sound, music and lights and synchronized with fountains. Me and four others were there.

After the show, we went to a restaurant in Chinatown to have an authentic Asian (Chinese) meal. We ordered a set dinner for four and an extra plate of vegetables, since we were five people. The meal was delicious. I was lucky enough to not have to pay for the meal, as one of the people I was with decided to pay for it.

Next, we walked around Chinatown to look at mooncakes at different Asian bakeries... I saw mooncakes ranging from $18 a box to $24 a box. I am tempted for some mooncakes, but I am also tempted to just wait until after the Mid Autumn Festival to get cheap mooncakes. We shall see... Not that I could really afford mooncakes right now, since I am still on the hunt for a job.

The evening ended off with a bubble tea, also in Chinatown. During the bubble tea, I played Uno with my friends.

This was a great way to celebrate my birthday. No alcohol was involved, not that I am an alcoholic and require alcohol to have fun, but it was a nice way to celebrate my birthday.
