Patrick & Junie picked me up at my office in Patrick's swanky Beemer. Lucky me hor ? (Hey kor2, I like CRV just as much ok ? Dun start frowning now :P haha) Roentgen met us at the restaurant and we had a pretty relaxed dinner, in a rather formal setting. Patrick was chatting with Roentgen and I felt like Roentgen was in an interview, meet the parents session or something! Except that the daughter wasn't there, Junie & I were just like the bystanders! wahahhahaa
Anyway, Patrick once again suggested Club72 and was kinda surprised when Roentgen was pretty interested to go up to take a look (but he insisted it was just for a look see at the views, and maybe try the fries that Junie & I had been singing praises about).
We went up, found seats and sat down. Junie left us to go to the washroom and I was just busy yakking with Patrick & Roentgen when Junie returned with ... Charmane!!! I was surprised!!! Ok, young gals, friday nite, sure very happening one! So i didn't think much of it and just tot wah, wat a coincidence leh! Then Junie asked me to guess who she was with (hint: 4 hunks). I still didn't put 2 and 2 together (stupid rite?!?!?!) and just went along to guess. It was after seeing the few of them exchanging knowing glances that I start to suspect that this was all part .. of ... a ... plan .....
So one by one, I guessed the hunks. First one, cfred. True enough, they started making calls/sms and cfred came up the stairs and presented to each of us gals a rose. I was like .. wow!!!! Next guess, NEMO!!! That is obvious! So cool Nemo slowly walked up the stairs, and again presented each of us gals a different colored rose. Next I guessed Teelee! Again I was right! And wow! Teelee was in a shirt!!! First time !!! Haha, and he oso presented each of us gals a rose. Poor teelee, he must be feeling really pai seh but its ok lah, he needs some "training" in this area so that next time he will be more "smooth" mah hor haha ! The last guess was more difficult, I didn't know who to guess and it was only with one obvious hint from Roentgen that I managed to guess who this di di is. Wah!!! And what a surprise! This di di is dressed in shirt and tie!!! Soooooo different from his usual self!!! Was told that he was told the dress code is "dress-to-kill-kj" and he turned up in shirt and pants. He put on the tie only shortly before mtg me! Wah, really dressed to the nines siah!!!! What a grand entrance di di made!!! haha ... They even called themselves the 4 escorts (led by mei mei-san Charmane) for KJ for the nite and they would be called by "pornfred", "teelee-vanilli" and "nemo-romeo" (since di di wishes to remain anonymous, cannot disclose the 4th nickname). I was later informed that the flowers were bought none other than teelee !!! Ok, good training for him, next time buy for his gal will know better what to buy. hehehe THANKS Teelee for the flowers! :)
Was reallly surprised leh to see all these wonderful people who forego their friday nite to spend time with me!!! I just couldn't stop smiling!!!! This is just soooo FANTASTIC!!!!
The surprises didn't stop here. I was next presented with a very nicely wrapped box of Godiva chocolates!!!! From cfred!!!!! Wow!!!!!!! Yeah, I have been bugging/teasing him for a piece (yes, I said ONE piece hor) of Godiva chocolates since we first talked about it after one of our gatherings when we realised that Cookie worked in Godiva previously. Have been bugging him to buy me one piece for my BD. But knowing him, I knew I wasn't gonna get any .... so was so pleasantly surprised when he presented me with ONE box!!! I tot it was a gift from all of them until Roentgen told me seriously that it was from cfred alone. WOW!!!!!!!!! THANKS CFRED!!!!!
Next was Junie, she gave me a nicely wrapped gift and when I opened it much later, it was a wallet! WOW!!! Junie knew that I have been searching for a wallet but I just couldn't find one that i like. She is soooo thoughtful!! THANKS Junie Buddy jie!!!!
We ordered some mocktails and Patrick ordered champagne and red wine. We also ordered some finger foods like the spice fries (yes! finally can let roentgen, teelee tried the fries that we touted so often), calamari & some sausages. The guys were trying to get me to the dance flr but i declined. But was dragged to the dance flr after we gals went to the toilet, and were hijacked by the guys on our way back to our seats, and led to the dance flr. Haha, I will graze through this embarrassing part since I CAN'T DANCE!!! But was happy to see the guys like Nemo, special appearance di di and Roentgen dancing away. Yes! Even Roentgen!!! He was saying if any of his colleagues saw him last nite they would have just fall flat, pengz! hahahha .... And frankly, i wouldn't be surprised!!!
The "older" generation among us would be excited whenever some retro music came on and we would be like staring blankly everytime some contemporary pop songs that we have never heard of blared the speakers. We would be asking the "younger" generation whether they have heard of the songs etc. It was fun mingling with these young folks haha ...
We continued our drinking and yakking, and had many rounds of cheers, clanking of wine glasses frequently. Even had a tiramisu !!!
When the clock strikes 12 (the gang even did a countdown for me), we were all standing in a circle bobbing away to the music and the gang all wished me Happy Birthday and even got a peck on the cheek by the 4 escorts! Wow! am i lucky or am i lucky. I was very touched when everyone gave me a birthday hug, felt so touched and all I could utter when I hug each of them is "THANK YOU Junie, Nemo, Roentgen, Teelee, Charmane, Cfred, Patrick & special guest di di!!! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!".I went home having this smile that couldn't be wiped off my face. THANK YOU ALL for making this nite super memorable for me. SPECIAL THANKS to Junie for organising this entire operation!!!! I really didn't know that this was planned long ago, with so many of you being a part of this grand plan. I'm just lost for words for your sweet gesture. I thank you for making my birthday so memorable, so unique and so very happpy!!!
