Anyway, just wanna jot down the memory lane of my 22nd Bday in Malacca, as this will be my last Birthday in Malacca. I'm gonna grad!!! Muahahaha... I just keep counting till the last day I want to leave MMU. And the number gradually decreases. It's a happy thing for me.
Cut the crap, back to my jotting downs. Firstly, I wanna thank my roomie, Jecilyn, for the quite hush-hush "night" which I didn't know what was happening outside my room as she kept me talking to her. Reason: to take my concentration out of it. Next, thanks to my new housemates, Kelvin, Ray, & Xiayan, for pretending not to know when my birthday is. That was very nice of u guys to pretend. By the way, how much did Josh & Jecilyn bribe u guys to keep pretending, huh? Lastly, my grateful appreciation to Sweet for lying to me. Previously Sweet told me that he will not be celebrating on the Eve of my birthday, but the night of my birthday itself. I remember the conversation happened the day before my birthday and it started like this:
Sweet: Z, I wanna tell u this thing about your birthday... You're having your first paper on the 3rd, right? So, I think I'll only be celebrating with you after your exam.
Me: (I was kind of sad actually) Meaning, when?
Sweet: On the night of the 3rd, of course! Your exam is in the morning. So, me & you, at night, after I finish my work, around 7.00pm. Set, ok?
Me: (Sad, but still trying to act cheerful) Sure, darling.
Sweet: I just want you to concentrate on your exams. For your own good.
Me: I know you're doing for my good. Thanks..
So I never suspect anything on the eve of my Bday, except for the anticipation of many phone calls & SMSes from my friends. At 11.00pm, as usual, Sweet called me to wish me an early "Happy 22nd Birthday" and a "good night" before he sleeps. At 11.30pm, YY called just to chat about him playing with his new Nokia N90 while driving from Seremban back to Malacca. I scolded him that it was dangerous to do 2 things at once while driving, and he said he'll hung up just for my sake. At 11.55pm, my phone rang again from YY telling me that he have reached the Malacca states... That was when my 016-line rang. I put YY on hold and pick up the other phone on my other free hand. Straight away the speaker, AP, sang a Happy Birthday song in 3 various languages of English, Mandarin, & Malay. I couldn't keep myself from laughing cause I kept stopping the singer, but he didn't even bother to stop even though I told him I was ROTFL! Anyway, I did thank my friend for his sincerity. Then I was back on the phone with YY, when he suddenly told me to turn to face the window. I was like, OMG you're here right in front of my house!!! YY just laughed when at the same time, outside my room, there were loud voices singing "Happy Birthday". I was, again, HOLY-COW you guys (Sweet & my housemates) were standing right outside my room, with Sweet holding a birthday cake! I shouted loudly with surprise... and then remembered I was actually still on the line with YY!!! Gosh, i must have blasted his eardrums off, which i think his handphone must be many miles away from his ears! Hahaha...
Nevertheless, after blowing MY favourite chocolate cake and all sorts, I opened the gate for YY. YY came down from his car with something hiding behind him. It was obviously my present, but I didn't realize just how big it was until he handed it to me. It was a gigantic red Patrick dog! Thank you dear friend, it's a great pleasure to receive such an enormous Patrick. YY told me he brought something else, and hinted me to look for it. After a few minutes of the guessing game, YK came out of the car when I spotted him hiding in the front seat of YY's big Nissan Frontier!
At the finale, as a usual the very very last ritual of a Bday is to treat everyone a piece of the birthday cake. No one is allowed to play with the cream because of 2 reasons (1) the cake was expensive, i guess.. hehe..; (2) no playing cake games in my room; (3) the cake is small, therefore it is only sufficient for 8 person only! Hahaha...
~*~Not to forget, I wanna thank all my housemates, friends & family who wished me my 22nd Bday~*~
P/S: Gosh, I feel so old now...
