Happened about twelve hours ago,
I had one of the biggest fright in life.
Even the RWS roller coaster cannot be in comparison with the shock I experienced.
Let me relate.
Last night, was my first birthday celebration with loves.
This Agnes was also invited, and we went Forest Dew for dinner.
I was on vegetarian diet because it’s my lunar birthday.
It was like any usual dinner, with many jokes,
reminiscence, chats and just the cozy company.
We ended the day around nine odd PM, and we all took the same train back to Outram.
CK & Willie dropped off at Chinatown.
I asked Willie why is he going CK’s house and he hurriedly said he need to get something from CK.
Well, not suspicious because CK’s house is like Willie’s second home!
Dar claimed that she’s going St. James because her sister is there.
Felt a bit angry + weird because she had eye infections and
I really couldn’t understand the need to go St. James.
We got off at Outram and said bye to Chris who lives just above the Outram NEL.
Still no suspicion so far…
The rest of us walked the way to the East West line.
We said bye to 大哥 who bade us goodbye.
The train to Joo Koon arrived,
and we waved goodbye to Fred and XL who were going Tampines.
Needless to say, Hubby Chan & TH got off at the next stop, Tiong Bahru,
leaving Agnes and I on the train home.
Chit chatted with Agnes until Clementi and I continued the journey alone.
I was at the interchange, and were debating which bus to take, 242 or 243?
I still choose 242 despite the fact that I was the third in queue.
(Bus must have just went off a short while ago)
I stood there, and whatsapp the group chat thanking them for turning up.
Also bbm-ed the boyfriend telling him I was already waiting for bus,
and the damn bus takes so long to come!
He replied me a “so fast” and told me he was going for his shower already.
Clutching my phone, I waited for the bus,
while keep pressing my phone to see the time
(despite wearing a watch)
and to see if I missed any messages.
The bus finally came and I board the bus.
Shortly, my phone rang, and Mummy called.
“婷，你到哪里了？”
I found it weird that Mummy knew I was already on my way home because it was still pretty early…
I entered the gate, and greeted Mommy.
Took two steps and saw Daddy fully clothed.
I was a little puzzled, but…
I walked a few steps and Mummy chatted with me.
Just like what would happen usually.
I nearly stepped into my room, when Mummy said my IC number did open…
I spun round and walked out and said YA!!! I TIO NUMBER NEVER TIO MONEY!!!
Chatted a bit more and Momma hurried me to do my cleansing and go bath.
I had barely stepped into the room and I immediately saw a FLOATING LIGHT.
In tandem with their SURPRISE & HAPPY BIRTHDAYS,
I also gave a very loud yelp/yell.
I was in such shock that I jumped back in fright.
More of a shock than a surprise.
I couldn’t digest because everything was happening too fast.
Even when the boyfriend asked me to blow the candle,
I was at a loss at what to do.
I had wanted to blow when I heard a lot of voices yelling,
MAKE A WISH! MAKE A WISH!! MAKE A WISH!!!!!!!
The message finally drilled into me and I clasp my hands and made a simple wish
before blowing out the candle.
I was in a daze and I didn’t really digest what is really going on.
Now I am regretting that I didn’t take a few more pictures with my ribbon cupcakes…
Boyfriend did take a few shots of the cakes, and we also took a few group pictures.
Ate the cake, chit chatted a bit more before finally calling it a day.
This time for real.
I am truly blessed for being friends with such beautiful people.
A million thanks to all for making it happen!
CK, 大哥, Willie, Dar, Fred, XL, Chris, TH
and of course
Hubby Chan.
I LOVE YOU ALL!
Quote of the day from boyfriend & 大哥 “it feels like it was our plan, and we were fighting with your brother’s friends, who launched the product first.”
