Birthday Celebration

WO... What a surprise I had today!!

Vic came home telling me that he had a surprise for me and needed to BLINDFOLD me before bringing me to the place! Well, of cos I smell rats (nice ones though. Ha!). 

First, he said he booked a cab and the cab will arrive in 7min to bring me to Orchard. Then the delay to 15min later. Then we got up the "cab" (with my eyes blindfolded still), the smell of the "cab", the seat of the "cab" feels too nice and comfortable to be a real cab!! Then came the "cab driver's" voice in HOKKIEN but sounded too much like Melvin... Hahaha... The cat is out of the bag! I know we must be heading toward Pastor's house. So I asked, "are we entering CTE?", "Yes", came the answer from Vic. Well... You see, whether you take Ave 1 or Ave 5 exit, it's a turning right, but we turned left... Haha... And I know my hubby so well, I know he will never do such thing as BLINDFOLD me and bring me BLINDFOLDED on a cab heading to ORCHARD for a dinner at a restaurant. Well well......

True enough, I got out of the "cab" and got into the lift... And I knew it's Pastor's house liao... His lift is always soooooo warm and stuffy. Before I could entirely undo the blindfold, the people yelled, SURPRISE!!! And started singing Happy Birthday before I could even see properly!! Haha... It was reali a surprise even though I sort of knew there must be something more than what I was told.

I always love celebrating my birthday with lots of people. But as usual, I would feel slightly uncomfortable being the highlight of any event or occasion. I don't like to be the highlight, but I enjoy the excuse of spending special moments like this together with pp I treasure.

Reali felt overwhelmed by the efforts made to make my birthday a special one. I mean, it's reali such a surprise. Thanks a lot to BK & Pauline, Aaron & Veron, Johnson & Shilin, Roy & Xiang, Simon, Melvin, Barry, Vincent, Meiyan for being present. And especially Pastor and Wenling for being the brain behind it. Nothing elaborate. But I feel very overwhelmed. Thank you!

One more day to my actual birthday. A lot more to talk about what transpired since yesterday. I am so blessed. Thank you, Lord.

God is good.
