Laine's and Sook Yee's Double Birthday Surprise

Today's post will be mainly of Laine and Sook Yee's surprise birthday party. Laine's surprise was a day earlier than Sook's even though their birthday are on the same date, coz they both have different friends and favorites. So, I'll describe Laine's surprise first.

We, meaning Yin Li, Chit Yong Tze Jiunn and I decided to surprise Laine. First, I called Laine over to my house on 11th of October at 2pm for a all-girls gathering, consisting of Yin Li and I. She agreed. Then, I called Tze Jiunn and Chit Yong to be at my house at least at 1.30pm, to help conduct the surprise. Both of them have some nerve turning up without any birthday presents, not even a card. Guess who was delegated to print out Hallmark Birthday Cards for them? Me. Before Chit Yong and Tze Jiunn arrived, Yin Li and I baked a chocolate cake for Laine. I know it had imperfect cracks on it, but it tasted good. Next, Yin Li and I decorated the table. We laid a tablecloth, then dish out the chocolate cake. After Tze Jiunn and Chit Yong's arrival, I made Ribena for them and poured Ribena into a champange glass, specially for Laine. The only thing left to do was the actual surprise, which was the presence of Tze Jiunn, Chit Yong and her birthday cake. Remember, she thought it was an all-girls gathering.

We waited amd waited for the Birthday Girl's arrival. At 3pm, she still hadn't turned up. She called to say that she will be late coz she had problems with her transport. At long last, she turned up and was shocked to hear my playing of 'Happy Birthday' on the piano with Tze Jiunn, Chit Yong and Yin Li yelling "Surprise!!!". The surprise worked. Laine was shocked and happy. After wish-making,candle-blowing, cake-cutting and cake-eating ceremonies, we went up to my room to have a round of LIFE game. We were all totally crazy, yelling and shrieking with delight whenever we won some money, married, bought houses, had children, or when our husbands/wives dropped out of the car. Tze Jiunn was exceptionally insane. His shrieks could puncture our eardrums. It was the craziest LIFE game I ever played. Laine who was the doctor earned the less money, though. Wierd. Chit Yong, the technician was the richest. Ha. The whole game was punctuated with snorting or hysterically insane laughter, high-frequencied shrieking and a song by Mika which I seriously despised, but was played multiple times by handphones of my crazy friends.

After Yin Li went home, Chit Yong, Tze Jiunn, Laine and I went to padang. I tought Chit Yong to cycle. Tze Jiunn's weight threatened to crush my poor rusty bike. Turns out, Laine and I were better bikers than the guys, who can't even make a sharp turn. Crazy Chit Yong and Tze Jiunn kept chasing Laine and I with the bike. We turned out to be the only people in padang who were yelling like mad people. Totally fun and most of all, CRAZY.

The next day was Sook's surprise, both Laine's and Sook's actual birthday. I called Sook to remind her to be at my house on 10am the day before. She didn't know that Xin Li and Serene were coming too. She thought it was just Wan Shin and I. Wan Shin arrived at my house when I was still in bed. It was only 7.30am, you know. Wan Shin and I talked about various stuff for awhile, then we watched 200 Pounds Beauty on my laptop. I washed up and then had a shock. Sook called and said she was coming that instant. It was an entire hour earlier than I expected her. I expected her to turn up way later than 10am, seeing she was such a dawdler. Wan Shin and I were forced to conduct the surprise without Xin Li and Serene, as they were told to arrive at 9.15. We took out Sook's chocolate Cake Sense cake from the fridge, which was Wan Shin's present to her. I left the door open for Sook when she was outside the gates and told her to lock the door behind her, then quickly hid in the store room with Wan Shin. Ha. Sook saw the cake but couldn't find us. Xin Li arrived just the same time as Sook. Wan Shin and I jumped out from the store room and surprised Sook. Serene missed the whole surprise. Laine was absent coz she had plans. After eating the cake, Xin Li and Sook danced for our entertainment. Then, we talked and continued watching 200 Pounds. We had Mcdonald delivery for lunch. Then, Sook went home coz she had plans. Others stayed at my house till evening and sort of hang out.

So, THE END of both surprises.

Here, I'll also post some photos of Bali which is where I'm going for year-end vacation. I can't wait! Hot sun, breezy beach, luxurious hotel, eye-candies, what more could I ask for a fabulous holiday? And, I'll instantly become an millionaire once I set foot on Bali. RM1 = 2728.20 Rupiah! Hahaha...Shopping paradise!
