Y Birthday Post.
ah, i had one of the best birthdays yesterday. really. :) Labels: Birthday
met up with ah dong at Raffles during his lunch break, and he treated me lunch. everywhere we went, it's uber packed. and hoh, i realised a cute trend about those working people in Raffles. haha! during lunch, everyone actually used packets of tissue to chopped seats at everywhere (restaurants, cafes, hawker, etc). and nobody will dared to take your seat if you had a pack of tissue paper there! whoa, i'm impressed. it's really a cute trend. :x
went back home once ahdong's lunch break is over. thanks for the treat, kor! although it's simple, but it's heartwarming enough. :) i got home at 3pm, and took a short nap till 4ish before prepping to meet kengey. yes, i was really sleepy as i had insomnia the previous night. :(
***
met up with kengey at 5.30pm at khatib before we took the train down to dhoby ghaut. kengey had reserved "a table for 2" at Fish&Co for 6.30pm, thus we had some time to spare before going over. went to shop around at Dhoby Xchange and This Fashion, before we crossed over to the restaurant.
when we entered the restaurant, we were directed to a table and... i saw all my friends there! those present were li'e, lee hong, froggie, yun, kimmy, jie hao and neth! gasps* i was so shocked (tho i didn't really expressed it out) to see all of them lah! initially, i was so depressed and disappointed that my bestfriends in poly had forgotten about my birthday and hadn't uttered a single word about anything. i was EVEN more sad when li'e called me the day before asking me about some bus thingy, and had mentioned NOTHING about my birthday. i swear i was really heartbroken then.
BUT...
thank you guys for turning up! teehee. :D
actually, i should have guessed they gonna surprise me this way. there were too many loopholes already, and yet i hadn't realised them. just because i trusted kengey that she wouldn't re-use a surprise (she did this for kimmy last year too). lol! there were some loopholes which i should had thought of in the first place already man. for example;
1. ahdong mentioning about kengey sms him this afternoon (but thank goodness he twisted his words well)
2.zeee's sms regarding kengey asking if she's free tonight and that she's sorry she's not free (i didn't suspect anything, because i though kengey had asked her to join the 2 of us or something)
3. and lastly, lye hong's message about she can't make it and wants us to enjoy (that one is very suspicious, but the message came too late for me to realise anything).
hahaha!

after clarifying all my doubts with them, we ordered and had our dinner. i ordered fish&chips for myself, and the serving is big. yummylicious! :D
mmm.
even yun, the seafood-hater (especially fish!) tried the fish and chips! haha.
YUM!
everyone were enjoying the meal, till after i came back from the ladies with all the gals except li'e. when i returned to my seat, li'e presented to me a birthday cake from everyone! awww, muacks! :)
teehee! everyone sent me a birthday song, and they even got the live band to sing along! and finally, i was treated the way yun was treated back in hardrock cafe few months back (the only difference was that i don't have any cute ang mor around singing bday song for me)! one the staffs of fish&co got me to stand on a chair holding a firecracker stick, and everyone sang me another louder birthday song. omg, i was trembling already lah!
happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday to meee~! :)
Check out this video neth took! haha!
after that is the norm - pictures, cakes and presents! :x pictures say a thousand words, so yay. :)

at first i was wondering why the 2 guys were so eager to take picture with me. god knows this was what they planned!!!!! :( Check out the vid below, and my shrieking was total classic! lol.
and lastly,
...a group photo. with lots of love! :)
we left Fish&co after footing the bill. li'e, lee hong, froggie and yun went off, whereas the rest of us went to catch a movie at The Cathay.
caught this at 9.55pm. kick ass hilarious! hahaha, we had a good laugh in the theatre man! the show made me itch for some mahjong soon. haha! wells, i'll rate it 3.5/5, because the show's kinda lame. took the train back home aftermath. :)
