Happy bday Jiali!

well... actually it was her bday yesterday, was too tired to blog, =P.

We planned on Tues nite to eat dinner together yesterday, since all of us (cept Amy) has 5pm paper (and Amy said, "So cool!" Where got cool? -_-) but we were all "mugged" till we 4got we shld actually buy a cake for Jiali. Until..... we all (me, Amy, Cai, Jen, Jimmy, Joo) met up in the YIH canteen @ 7.45pm. But still we were kinda blur cos we juz finished our papers...

So... we went in to Munchie Monkey to meet Jiali & Charles, where they were eating with the EE ppl. There wasn't any space so we sat outdoors, where we could see Nick & his frenz eating indoors. Charles sent an sms to Nick saying sth like Nick looks good & Nick showed me the sms thru the glass panel. Haha. So funny. Later on we moved indoors when we saw ppl leaving & we got The Cushion & Merv came over when his frenz left (he was trying to act cute... X_X)! It wasn't until 8.30 that we finished deciding on the baked pastas/rice that we want. But when Cai came back from the cashier, she told us we've to wait for 30 to 40min for the baked pasta/rice!! SO... we had to reorder our stuffs. We tend to digress when we're deciding on our food, so I had to catch their attention to get their orders... I feel like a mother hen or watever.... -_- When the food finally came, (the brownie came first & it's superb! *drools*), we find that it was a hard task eating @ The Cushion...

We started gossiping about Sandy Chua & Eric-whom-we-think-is-her-bf, cos some ME ppl were celebrating bday there. When they were singing bday song to the bday ger, we realised we shld have bought a cake for Jiali. So we started discussing bout it. Yah yah, in front of Jiali, but we were whispering. And the blur Jiali tot we were still gossipping bout Sandy Chua & The Eric. Haha. We tot she roughly noe we were thinkin of buying a cake for her liao.

So.... when we left Munchie @ nearly 10pm, some of em started conspiring what to do while the rest of us were in front, toking to Jiali. In the end, it was decided that Merv would go home (to get the car) while Amy say she wanna go back to Engin to mug, Cai going home from Engin, and Joo going back Kuok. The rest of us (me, Charles, Jen, Jiali) will hop on to Jimmy's car and Jimmy will fetch Jiali home 1st. Then we went Holland V to buy a cake (thanx to Weicong who told me wat's the cake shop in Holland V, though most of the shops u told me r closed), haha. We managed to get a Swensen's Mango Ice-cream cake. Thanx to the nice manager in Holland V Swensens for letting us buy the cake although u've closed (that is if he's reading this, haha). We needed to get exact change for the cake cos they've already closed the cashier, luckily 1 of us has a 5cent, cos the cake cost $XX.X5 (if u're really curious on how much the cake costs, u can ask me, but Jiali, I wun ans u this, haha). I then asked Amy to check our contact list for Jiali's address.

When we reached the car park near Jiali's place, Jimmy was contemplating to eat the (nice) Hokkien mee that he keep describing. Meanwhile, the rest in Merv's car were reaching while we were crossing the road in front of em. Charles suddenly stopped halfway on the road to "tie shoelace" (now then I realised Charles shldn't be wearing shoes.... he shld be wearing slippers), we got a shock, juz to realised the car that Charles was in front of was Merv's.... CHEY!! So... all of us have gathered and we went up to Jiali's place. It was soooo tiring... we had to climb a staircase that is 3 storeys high b4 we can reach the ground floor of Jiali's place.... y u stay so high up? -_- According to the contact list, her door number is #11-4931... But... all the doors there were only 493, 495, 497...blah... so we decided to try #11-493. Merv called Jiali while we press the doorbell to test whether it was the correct unit. But Merv signalled to us that he couldn't hear the door bell on from his phone! So we started running away... HAHAHA

Our last resort was to ask Charles to call Jiali to tell her that he has decided to stay @ Jimmy's place and he wanna borrow notes from Jiali. We confirmed the unit number and started to press the doorbell. I think we pressed for @ least 10 times b4 Jiali opened the door (did we?) & we had to sing the bday song v softly cos of her weird neighbour.... *raises eyebrow* Aft we finished gobbling up the ice-cream cake (yeah! Swensen's Mango ice-cream cake is nice!), Jiali said, "Aye! Thanx alot lei! I'm so touched!" (actually this is the Nth time she said that, startin from the 1st time she said, moments after she opened her door, but this part is funny), we were waitin for her to make her speech but was interupted by Amy, "Aye! Can u bring us some drinks?" HAHAHA. Amy u're hilarious! =P We started touring around Jiali's room. Her house is so retro! Hee.

Anyway.... we started to rush off @ 11.40 cos me, Charles & Jen were trying to get the last MRT. Thanx to Jimmy for dropping us @ Redhill! I saw a bus that goes near to my house & I hopped onto it, later on I managed to transfer to a bus, within 5 min, that goes to my house. Charles & Jen managed to get their last train too! So heng!

Success in Operation Surprise-Jiali! =D
