‘Surprise’ Cake

Yes, I am still celebrating my birthday, although it is over. Tonight there is another dinner. And I am expecting another 1 more next week or so.

Last Friday, I took half day’s leave, very impromptu-ly. Last minute decision. And it caused someone alot of trouble. Hahahahahaha! That’s because someone wanted to give me yet another surprise, and got worried when her spy told her I wouldn’t be around for the surprise on Friday.

And she couldn’t contain it anymore, and called me to scold me for spoiling my own surprise. And I just realised she called JG and Bubbles to see if they could help. Hahahahahaha! YL, you very OE lor!

What happened was, YL, JNC, LA and MT had planned to send me a cake on Friday afternoon. Who knows, I decided to take leave on that day just to nua at home. When JG knew, she panicked and called YL to tell her about my leave. And YL panicked too, and called Bubbles to see if she knew my home address, which Bubbles didn’t. She knew where to drop me etc, but did not know my address. Ha! And so, out of desparation, YL called me to ‘scold’ me lor. I laughed and laughed. And told her to deliver on Monday, to make things easy. I told her I will act surprised and all, so she won’t be disappointed.

Sad to say, I didn’t have time to be surprised today. The delivery man called me, when I was in the middle of a weekly meeting. Too busy to entertain him, so I got him to call JG to open the door for him. Hahahahaha! Ooooops! But I am still surprised la. Really. Kekekekeke.

And so, I am sharing my ‘surprise’ cake with my colleagues now. More intake of sugar. After that box of toffee-that-contain-41%-sugar. And all that Tim Tam. And cakes. And chocolates. I think I will get diabetes.

Surprise!

Ahhhhhhhhh… this is one of the times I feel happy. Why?

Because I just got another surprise today!

I went over to another department to get some things and when I returned to my desk, I saw I had a missed call. From YL. I was about to call her back when my desk phone rang. It was the recep.

‘Rose, I think there is a courier at the door for you ya know. Can you go and open the door now?’

I was resigned, and at the same time grumbling in my mind which idiot cannot open the door for the courier him/herself, must call me to open the door. Courier can’t be for me what, who will courier things to me…. And then I saw the courier man, holding a pink coloured envelop with a ribbon… The missed call from YL… Then I knew.

I tell you, this group of gals never fail to surprise me for my birthday. Never. N.E.V.E.R. And I dare say again – NEVER. After so many years, I thought I would become immune, and would sort of guess when they are gonna do what. But no. Each year, I still get surprises from them.

Argggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Why don’t I have my camera with me noooooooooow! This is the kind of moment that I would like to capture, and I.Dont.Have.My.Camera.

Oh, and JG gave me a little surprise too. She told me she had a lunch appointment, and would not be doing lunch with me today. So off she went. And came back late. And passed me a big bag and said ‘Happy Birthday in advance!’.

Awww… So touched lor! So touched can!

Thanks YL. Thanks JNC. Thanks MT. Thanks LA. Thanks JG.

I love you all!

Even though it is raining outside now, my heart is filled with sunshine. With a rainbow.

🙂

Will update on my pressies AFTER my birthday. Hee.

My Blog And I

Finally, I get to breathe!

Had been busy up to my neck past few days. Even over the weekend I came back to the office, just to clear my paperwork. Last 2 days were the worst, the pile of paper on my desk, I think I can very soon use them to build a fort around my desk if I don’t clear them.

Just used the morning to clear half of it. Still have half lying on my desk, but I think I can spare some time to blog. Kekeke.

I would have taken a picture of the fort I have built (or rather, my boss helped me build), if only I had my camera with me. But no, I don’t. In fact, I have not been taking pictures for the past one week plus.

Because I don’t have my camera with meeeeeeeeeeeee!

I left it in someone’s bag one day, and since then, I haven’t seen my camera. Either that person forgets to bring, or I forget to take it back.

There were a couple of times I had wanted to snap some pictures around me, but then realised I didn’t have my precious camera.

I miss my camera!!!!!!!!!

I want my cameraaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!

I think, my blog is very boring. Especially without pictures. Already-not-very-high redership fell drastically recently. Very soon, I think I will be left with only three readers – Me, Myself, and I.

Of course, I blog because I want to jot down the little incidents that ever happened in my life. Not because I want people to read them, but if people do want to read, it’s up to them.

Then along the way, I do realise that my writing is damn horrible. Lack of vocabulary is no need to say out loud one. Plus my style of writing is not everyone can appreciate one. Plus sometimes its my emo day, and so, probably not everyone wants to emo with me. And so… there goes readership.

Oh well. As long as Me, Myself and I appreciate my blog, what else is there to complain about?

And then, I guess my entries are affected by the way I am feeling at the point of time of posting. If I feel angry, I write an angry post. If I feel upset, I write an upset post. If I feel happy, I write a happy post. And then, of course, I do realise that no one likes upset posts. Either people try to comfort you, or they try to lecture you about life, or they try to help you. All when you don’t need it.

And so, I pretend to be happy and write a happy post, which is not happy at all. I thought that everyone is stupid like me, and can be coaxed so easily. But apparently no. Cos readership is dropping.

How I feel, is totally reflected by what I write. And so, I choose to password most of my emo entries. Its for your own good that you don’t read them. Cos I don’t want you guys to be emo as well.

I know I have been very emo recently. I laugh and I cry. I get upset and I get angry. I get happy and I become hilarious. Of course, I am only human.

And me being me, don’t know how to hide my emotions from anyone. I can’t feel upset and still laugh. I can’t be disgusted with someone and still be able to act buddy. I can’t. I am not exactly proud about it, but I am definitely not ashamed of it. At least I am true to myself.

And I am proud to say – I have nothing to hide.

This is me.

Surprise Party

Had my first surprise party today. Dance school people celebrated for me in advance. It is a tradition to do a celebration in school for all students, with all the birthday dance and phototaking and stuff, but I have told the coordinator in advance that I do not wish to do that. And she had agreed not to, so I did not expect them to do anything.

Yesterday I promised VF that I would go Union with her today after my performance at Butter Factory. So we did. In the beginning it was quite boring, me not knowing anyone there, and no one will invite me for dance unless they know you are good, which I am not, yet.

My night was like, ruined by my first dance with this uncle who had a different way of dancing. Whatever little mood I had was entirely wiped out by him. But then, more and more people headed down. RC, PL, MG, JW, Def. I was really surprised to see MG there, because he rarely goes to Union, and he invited me for a dance when he arrived. Then PL arrived, being the latest of the batch. And MG invited me for second dance.

And when we came back from the dancefloor, I heard ‘Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you’ sounding from our table. With a cake and all. I was stunned. Because I really did not expect it. And I got invited by this guy who leads damn well for a dance after that! He is really nice. All of us were awed by his lead. I am glad that I did not do badly when dancing with him. Keke.

Thanks pals for celebrating my birthday in advance. I enjoyed myself 🙂

Damn shacked. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Email to President

I slept early on Thursday night. Was so tired that I knocked out at 10.30. So tired that I forgot all about Tut until he messaged me and said he couldn’t make it for dinner. I told him to message me when he was done with dinner. And he did. At 12+am. I was in slumberland by then, and even though I heard the phone, even though I saw his message, I was too tired to reply him. Ha! Sorrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Yesterday, JG and AS were talking about going shopping one day. JG said that she was worried that she would be too broke by the date they set. I turned and told them my brilliant idea.

‘Why don’t we request to have our salary for December to be banked in early?’

JG turned and gave me that Do-you-know-what-you-are-talking-about look.

AS was further away from me, and she missed the ‘Why don’t we request’ part, and exclaimed excitedly.

‘REALLY??? We will have our salary banked in early this month????’

JG and me laughed and laughed. Then I looked at them seriously and said,

‘Ya, why not? Hari Raya the Muslims also get half their salary early. Deepavali also what. Why not for Christmas? We can try writing in to President. Maybe he will agree leh?’

And so, I drafted this email which I intended to send out to our dear President of the company.

Dear Mr. XXX,

Thank you for the inspiring speech you gave at the D&D a week ago. It definitely was a moral booster, and we hope to achieve better results in the years to come.

As you know, Christmas is around the corner, and Christmas, being the season of giving, needs alot of giving. We at XYZ company, would like to spread our love around by taking this opportunity to send our loved ones a token of our love.

As we all have more than one loved ones (as a matter of fact, we all have lots of loved ones), we will need to spend more than a bomb on Christmas gifts. Therefore, we would like to request that our salary for December be banked into our respective accounts by 14 December, to ensure that we have sufficient resources to spread our love, and have time to source for them.

We sincerely hope that you will take our suggestion into consideration, as we feel that besides working hard, we need to play hard, and also to have work-life balance. We need love, and we need to show our love.

Looking forward to your favourable reply, and hope to see the money in our bank accounts by 14 December.

Sincerely,

Rose, on behalf of ABC Department of XYZ Company

JG laughed and laughed.

‘Rose, I am sure you can get your salary before 14 December. And you don’t even have to work after that. Because you will get fired!’

Will meh?

You think my email will work?

I have a dinner appointment tonight. My first birthday get-together. I put on a little makeup to freshen up. JG said she has not been hearing me going out for a long long time, other than going for classes. Hahahahaha! Got la! Just that I never say only mah. And I never really bother to doll up.

Thing is, when I did bother to make myself look pretty, I left my camera with someone else -_-. So no pictures tonight.

Oh, Tut is in town, and we might catch up over a couple of late drinks tonight or tomorrow. I think, Mr.A is a little jealous that I am meeting Tut, while Tut did not tell him that he is here. Hahahaha! Mr.A, don’t worry, I take revenge for you. If I do hook up with Tut, I will make him drunk so he can’t wake up for his workshop tomorrow :P.

Damn sleepy now. Think I old liao. Can’t take the kind of drilling that those young ones can. Need to rest.
