lovely surprise!

apart from the drilling and the crankiness and being so pissed off with listening to the drowning voices of the desperate housewives, today was an accomplished day!

clarissa messaged me around 4 to say that clairey was super sad because none of the nigus remembered her birthday!
only clarissa msged her.
chloe thought claire's still in m'sia.
christina, being the blur one, forgot(i think)
me, (wanted to do the "last min" greeting thingy i did on Jia Jia)
jia jia, well, still in M'sia!

so clarissa & i planned to surprise claire, somehow.
we dont know how.
so the entire planning began...
clarissa called chris while i called claire's mum to check if it's possible that we go to her house, and also to find out claire's whereabouts.
but surprise surprise!
claire's mum told us somebody is already at the house!!!
so who is this mysterious person???
she said it's a tall girl cooking pineapple rice (huh huh huh???)
and that this girl came last year too. (ding ding ding! last yr?!?!)
so i suspected it's Ying Xiu or Sophia.
i asked Clarissa to find out from Hui Ping and TADA!!!
indeed, it was Tan Ying Xiu!!!
so we proceeded with our plans, i bake brownies and we meet at Tanah Merah and surprise!!!

but stupid Tan Ying Xiu's phone had to go flat at this critical moment! (she's supposed to tell claire she cant make it to Orchard and den Claire's mum will call her to ask her to come home and eat!) so duh, obviously she cant make the call with a flat phone. cant use claire's house phone too, duh.
so I had to, instead, phone claire & tell her some bull story that i broke up with monk (choy!) and that i'm super duper sad now i need to talk to her desperately.
but you know, once claire's out, she doesn't want to return home. (and vice versa)
so instead of asking me to meet at her house, she suggested anywhere anyplace in Singapore, BUT HER HOUSE.
so in the end, i had to tell her i just met him at TM, and i'm super sad now i cant go anywhere but her house (since i'm already on the train and at tanah merah station. i even had to crap that i didn't feel like going orchard or anywhere else that she suggested cuz it's too "happy", "noisy" and "festive" )
i even had to pretend to cry to force her to come home.
but oh wells, my acting skills was damn good. she chiong-ed home.
and we helped Ying Xiu prepare the pineapple rice and the tons of things she hasn't got ready yet.

den when Claire was reaching home, i waited for her in the living room.
and i had to pretend to be crying melancholy.
and when she came, i just had to hug her and pretend to sob cuz i was so afraid my expression would give way.
my job was to bring her to her room so that the rest (christina who joined us later, clarissa & ying xiu) can bring the food out and surprise her.
but HUNGRY and GREEDY claire headed straight for the kitchen when i said i wanted to talk in her room, claiming that she wants to get me a drink. so nice of her! (but she later admitted that she also wanted to get an apple to eat! that's why she was so insistent when i told her NO NEED WATER!!! )

DENG DENG DENG!
big EXPOSÉ.
but not too bad cuz claire got the shock of her life.
seeing THREE friends in her kitchen instead of her maid and the kitchen IN A MESS she had never ever seen before.
(((:

it was such a nice get-together session we had!
4 nigus + yingxiu (((:
what a lovely surprise!
i'll upload the pictures later cuz the connection is so damn SLOW.
this is super nice of claire!!!
she wanted to cheer me up and she bought me Mrs. Fields cookies (((:
i'm so touched!!!


having known you for five years now claire, i really dont know what to say...
my life would be so imperfect without you, throughout my four years in Dunman.
always the crazy girl doing the crazy things with me. be it the S.H.E, the TST, the "Siao" Huas, the e5n.netz or the nigus, you've always been a part of my life. and not to mention, a part of me. i cannot imagine my life without you. it's simply inconceivable. we've been there for each other since so long! and although we weren't always so close every minute and every second of our lives, our hearts were still strung together by the strong bond we've created since sec 1. (i'm rather thankful for gsh for that matter you know. haha. for i somehow feel that she helped in strengthening our friendship and trust..)
i'm so thankful for a friend like you.
someone i can trust so wholeheartedly.
and you never fail to surprise me and touch me, so deeply.
like the time you cried for me (outside school hall) when i scored so badly for prelims and how you were, so worried for me.
and this time, you were so concerned, albeit it's your birthday! (and of course, the story wasn't true at all) you were so spontaneously willing to share your birthday time, listening to my woes and sad love story.. and even so thoughtful to buy me cookies! (with "therapeautical chocolates" in it. haha.)
i just want to say Happy Seventeenth Birthday,Claire!
and i really hope we'd be friends for as long as we can be...



new friends are silver, old friends are gold.
but you;
you are a jewel to me.
encrusted on my heart (:

hey you! that's it! that's the bombshell!!!
