Sailu and Geeta

Yesterday was super super tiring.. First was Sailu darling's birthday.. We did up the Scavenger Hunt List and made some changes to the powerpoint slides and ran out of the house at about four.. Once at the chalet, we were assigned to do the balloons and trust me, I never wanna look at another balloon again for a long long time.. And my wrist is severely damaged.. Haha.. It was a good thing Vic and I were both feeling useless together and not knowing many people cuz that let us hang out in the room and snap pictures and be silly. :) Sai looked gorgeous in her pink gown and blue dress and the party was a blast.. The games kept us entertained as we watched people going around trying to get a lipstick stain on their cheeks and snoop around the floor in search of ants.. It was really fun and kept us laughing.. Then met Siva and Vjay also after eons and it felt soo good catching up and stuff.. we chit chatted till about 3.30am and then decided we should leave since most of her friends were no longer there.. So Vjay hailed us a cab and sent us off and we made our way to Hougang for Geeta's surprise...We reached Ammuma's place at about four plus.. This place was our location for the surprise as Geeta lived just a block away and it allowed us to decorate the venue as well.. The place was so beautifully decked in purple-an arch of purple balloons, a curtain of purple streamers, purple backdrops and a purple carpet for her to walk in through.. Soo pretty.. All were awake all night and Vic and I couldnt resist and dozed off for ten minutes and the others were so sweet not to wake us.. They tiptoed out to the kitchen and went to make sandwiches and milo for all.. And I ended up waking up to Vicknesh stuffing a sandwich in my mouth.. They were all so sweet. And it was so nice all working together to plan this surprise for her.. We made our way to the lift landing of her block to have a run thru with the min-cooper that was supposed to lead her to Rajieef who would then blindfold her and lead her to the house for the surprise... It was so hilarious when we were all play acting and stuff.. Nobody could keep their voices down.. And we kept getting weird stares from passers by who were pretty startled by our blindfolding acts..

After one run through, we went back and waited while Shivani and Divyah Chechi went to get the flower petals and sticky notes ready .. We stayed back to confirm Rajieef's entrance and so unfortunately he lost his wallet at Sentosa and so he could not come.. We had to change the plans and it ended up that Vic and I had to pounce on her and kidnap her instead.. So nervously we waited for the alarm clock to wake her and for her to listen to the cassette tape and follow the clues.. However she proved a really tough person to surprise as she could not be awoken with 3 alarm clocks.. AIYO!! And we failed to think that she may not dutifully follow our plans and clues and instead she ended up just collecting the clues.. So things were a mess and we were so unprepared and standing in front of the lift having a run through and about to fling a shawl and blindfold over Vicknesh who was pretending to be the birthday girl when the lift doors opened and she stepped out right in front of us.. We were all in stunned silence for some time, all not knowing how to react and waiting for instructions.. Eventually we just kidnapped her anyway and brought her to the house where she was surprised by the deco and the room full of relatives who took the effort to turn up so early in the morning and the spongebob edition of monopoly that awaited her.. :) Haha.. the whole thing was hilarious.. So many mess ups and miscommunications but it was so fun and worthwhile..

Anyway Geeta baby, hope you enjoyed your surprise and so sorry for planting three annoying alarm clocks in your room :) Haha..
