-------------Plan 1------------
We contemplated to celebrate on the 8th, but suddenly, everyone was busy and couldn't make it. Even the celebrated guy had to work that night. So, this plan was cancelled. Well, at that point, we were still undecided where to go as we couldn't agree on the venue. But I dragged him to go for dinner along with Aini anyway that night~ and with a bit of luck, Hazique was around the same area. He came with Ila a bit later as she got off from work late that night. Surely that wasn't the celebration cos not all of us were there heheh
-------------Plan 2------------
It never crossed my mind to plan a surprise party as I remember Hazique once said, 'surely he already knows we're going to celebrate his birthday, so it's no longer a surprise'. And so, I told Fariz of the 2nd plan to celebrate. Ila asked why on earth did I tell him about it? I told her I could undone the damage. I thought maybe giving COD as an excuse would sound legit. Again, everyone was busy at work. We were still undecided where to celebrate. Fariz wasn't in town that day anyway. So, cancelled! *terasa macam nak tambah sound effect di situ*
-------------Plan 3------------
We kept changing venues as we had to consider some of us who are quite picky about their food, the place closed, another place sucks, and finally, we settled for Rasta TTDI. Ila said we need to have a cake but previous experiences taught us that the cakes were never got finished on the spot. And so, Ila came up with the idea of having Pavlova as the cake HAHAH
And so, on Sunday, before Liverpool vs Stoke kickoff, I kept myself busy in the kitchen. Mak said she wanted some, so I split it onto 2 trays. But the oven is quite small, I put the one for Mak at the bottom of the oven. I didn't know that the heat came straight from the bottom, 20 mins later, the smell of overburning flooded the air. Ah, there went Mak's part =__= So I had to whip up a new one. But the problem was Mak bought the whipping cream in a small carton. I had two big batches of them and that small carton was not enough. Previously, my sister rang me to ask whether I wanted some burgers or not. So I thought, maybe I could ask her to look for whipping cream at 7 Eleven. I called her, she was already on her way home! argghh! Mak said that was okay. She would buy another carton the next day, but not that I had the time to make some, unless on weekends.
I tried not to laugh cos I kept saying to myself, 'habis kena tipu mamat ni'. Since Hemie is a bit unfamiliar with routes to KL, I had to sketch her a map to Hazique's house. She got lost anyway hahah but she had her bestie with her as a co-pilot, but the worst part was she called me when I was in the carthat I had to tone down the speaker volume. Luckily, Zana was on the phone so I didn't have to mention Hemie's name at all. Aini got off from work a little early than usual, ah must be our night :p
Ila said that we should make it as a surprise. And so, with my good acting skills, I used the COD excuse and Fariz took the bait. But since it was in the weekdays, everyone was busy at work, the others couldn't make it on time that I had to come up with a way to buy some time for the others to be there on time. The plan was the others would be there at 9pm. But they got there around 10 =__= By that time, I've ran out of things to buy and ideas to stall into going to the crime scene and everything started to sound fishy.
Then, while on the way there, the others told me they were almost there. Oh this is good, I said to myself. I thought close enough, we would be there at the same time. But I got mixed up with the routes that we got lost! You see, there are two Rastas. We went around Damansara, called Naruto and Tamtam for directions. That already cut off the surprise. Ya la, surprised cos got lost! Actually, we got lost cos we got the wrong direction HAHAH The direction was from this end of highway while we were at the other side of the highway. Anywayyy, we managed to find the place. I ordered a mushroom cheddar burger, it tasted so-so. Maybe will try some other dish, next time :p
Well, Operation B-Day III was a success :D Next!
