Yes, some frens were on the receiving end of my moaning about how i was in the office, (Yang, Rek, Aaron, Chris) feels so weird, and it SEEMED like everyone was planning my boss's birthday surpriseS with an "S" and here i was just enjoying my birthday myself.
Little did i know, mine was being planned to. and boy did they hide it well. They were so sweet i swear. When i told Chris, he said "They're so sweet!!! my birthday people know but don't care." So did my parents. =)
Honestly, i didn't expect anything since i was so new. I mean, come on... i only joined last Thursday, i was like A week and a day "old" here.
To avoid having to repeat the story to million and 1 pple (as if i have so many friends...phft =P), here it is.
The plan was such, The day before i had gone to reserve a cake for my manager, so yesterday, she had gone for lunch with other colleagues, leaving Ling and I to collect the cake and hide it in the fridge. The plan was to surprise her after lunch.
BTW, i was supposed to be at the agency for a little orientation at 4pm, however, the agency got word of my managers bdae and called me to come earlier so that they could come down with me to surprise her.
So i went in to let my boss (veron) noe abt it. and was told to call them back and tell them i can't make it cos she's got some impt things to discuss with me. and so i did.
Few mins later, while veron wasn't arnd. Ling and Lorraine had come to our area to get the cake outta the fridge, when asked if they needed help, she said she'd call me later to come find them. So there i was...sitting in my cubicle..alone...quiet waiting... then my phone rang
"Valerie, can u meet me in the conference room, i wanna talk to u abt the impt things now."
As i walked to the room, i saw the door closed, but the lights off.. so i bent down thinking...
"did i hear wrongly.."
I bent down to look through the unfrosted parts of the door and saw 3 pple, frm the waist down, standing in the room, so i STILL thot
"Oh... ok... looks like they're surprising her soon.. but wait didn't veron want to meet me in this room..?"
I took a glance at the Lit cake on the table..
"THAT'S NOT THE CAKE WE BOUGHT HER?!?!"
I opened the door, the lights came on and they began singing... so sweet la!
So immediately after surprising me... it was Veron's turn. and she didn't expect that either! haha...
So here are the pics!(i had dinner with parents and chris at the long anticipated COCA..FINALLY! but pics of tt will come up later on... chris has the memory card..)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY 9 OCTOBER BABIES!!!!!!!
