Happy Birthday To Me!

[ 14 September 2007 ]

Happy birthday Gala!

Happy birthday to me,
Happy birthday to me!
Happy birthday, dear Gala,
Happy birthday to me!

Thank you so much everyone for your well-wishes, cards, gifts, electronic smooches & techno love! I will get back to you all individually, I am way behind on my email right now but let me just say a massive THANK YOU! You are all adorable & your support is so very appreciated.

Here are the birthday photos taken yesterday! (Ain’t my boyfriend a peach?) We actually DROPPED one of the memory cards there & so he got on his bicycle & went back to get it… Quelle champion! You can see the rest (+ big versions) here.

Happy birthday Gala!

Oh, & do you want to hear something amazing? Do any of you remember how I said that I wanted pink glittery cupcakes for my birthday? Well, this INCREDIBLE cupcake QUEEN, Kim, offered to make them for me. I picked them up yesterday — she is the loveliest woman ever — & they blew my MIND. Coconut cupcakes with sticky marshmallow icing! Drool! I wish I could invite you all over to eat one!

Happy birthday Gala!


Super-love & cupcakes,
Gala <3

  4. I just learned a few days ago from my doctor that I have to go on a restricted diet for a disorder I have. I mentioned it in my blog, and when I went to my meditation and energy work class, one of my class mates had made me muffins based on my okay list! It is such a treat to have muffins or cupcakes made special for you. It really made my day :)

  12. The cupcakes are so pretty I’d be kinda sad to eat them. ...and then I’d eat them and that would remedy the sadness.

  44. Happy 24th!

    I’ve been following your blog — albeit silently — for a while now, and it’s really made a big impact on how I feel about myself. I’m not the thinnest of girls, so I often had trouble dressing myself or feeling as pretty as my super-thin friends. Ever since I discovered this site, I’ve felt a lot more confident in myself and my eclectic style. Nowadays I get loads of compliments on the way I dress, and all because of you.

    So have a wonderful birthday — 24 years young, and you’ve already made a difference in this world.

    <3 Ankti · Sep 14, 05:58 AM · #

  45. Yet another Happy Birthday!

    Balloons, poufed hair and cupcakes. Perfect.

  107. I searched for this one to find out what was your zodiac sign… it came as a surpeise that you are a Virgo, so that’s where you get your clear eyes from. I was expecting something of Uranus around you (crazy hair colours and general craziness :)) and 13 is the number of Uranus ! 1+3=4
