My Birthday Surprise
I haven't finished doing up my university applications, but I just have to blog about my birthday last Thursday because it's been almost a week already and I don't want to forget it. (:
The day part was boring because no one in the office knows when my birthday is so apart from the fact that I was smsing and talking on my handphone more than usual (it didn't beep or ring either cause it was on silent mode), it was the same as any other day at work. OH, lunch was special though, I met Junqi and Vonn at Pizza Hut, full of nonsense as usual. :D After lunch, they REFUSED to let me leave and I wondered what on earth was going on, then a waitress came with a slice of blueberry cheesecake and ice cream. (: Had to bring it to the office because I was soooo full and totally running late. And they paid for my lunch! Love them so much, can't wait to see them again this coming Friday. (:
Went to meet Adeline at Caltex House after work, and guess who was with her!

Uncle Zhunwei! (with Adeline (far right) and I)
Gosh, I haven't seen him in SUCH a long time! He's so silly, he called me old and his birthday's just two days after mine. (By the way, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY UNCLE! you're old too!) And thank you Adeline & Zhunwei for the Burberry scent with the pretty bottle. (:
Clarissa came soon after, and we set off for Orchard MRT, where we
met Joy and Chel. Sat at Breadtalk Wisma Atria for a reeeeally long time waiting for Stefanie, her status was 'On the way here already' for more than an hour, you'd think she was coming from Timbaktu. When she finally arrived, we cabbed to a mysterious dinner location, which was at the end of this secluded dark, long road. Rather.. creepy. One of the first thoughts which came to my mind in the cab (apart from "Where is this secret location of theirs?") was "How on EARTH am I going to get out of here later?!" I know I am sometimes too practical that way. :D
Though secluded, the cafe was rather crowded, especially with caucasians. I walked in looking for Adeline, Stef and Joy (who took the first cab) but instead, GASP, I saw my dearies from 404 sitting around a table (looking very hungry)! It wasn't expected because I was actually supposed to meet them the next day, but they lied to me, actually almost all of them weren't free on Friday. So anyway, Stef wasn't even late, she just pretended to be because they only managed an 8.30pm booking at the cafe. In actual fact, she was a lonely wandering soul for almost two hours while the rest of us bummed at Breadtalk and went "WALAO WHERE'S STEF?" Well okay, I asked, and the rest of them pretended they didn't know and echoed me. ): Haha STEF I LOVE YOU.So it was a good dinner with a nice ambience and some of the most wonderful people around. And a rich good chocolate truffle birthday cake. I got a pret
ty (albeit rather huge) Nike tote bag from the 404ers. The 205ers gave me a baby's plain purple round-neck tee from Topshop (HAHA!) and they wanted to get me the same one in my size but they didn't know what colour I lacked, so in the end they got me a green tee from Topshop and a halter from Forever 21. And these were in addition to the dinner which they refused to let me pay my share for! Point of information, my friends, I (only) have round-neck tees in orangey-red, yellow, light green, cyan, purple, pink, black and white - I actually lack very common colours like normal red and orange, army green, dark green, blue, light purple and pink, brown, maroon, grey.. I have a long way to go.

Thank you dears, for spending so much time and effort (and money) on me. I love you all so much. (:
I didn't know my friends were that good liars. I'd better be more wary from now on. Hahaha!
Apart from that, Don sent me this at midnight:
Translated, it reads 'Happy BirdDay!' (: AND, I received a birthday card from him in the mail a few days ago, all the way from Taiwan! MUCH THANKS AH GONG. (:Fabulous birthday, that was. (:
Happy Belated Birthday to dearest Clara, I love you girl! Hope your birthday was fab too. (:
Alright, I'm tired out from work because HAH I now have WORK TO DO! Plus, it's quite a lot so (get this!) there's work waiting for me in the office. HAHA! HOORAY!
Off to bed now! (:
