:: 1 more day till Edo’s birthday
February 2, 2005woke up at 8.05am. My gawd ! I was late for class ! But i remembered, today is the day where i have to prepare the suprice party for my best friend’s birthday. Maybe God made me woke up late so i could do this :
As i went to look for my towel, i went to see edo, and he was still sleeping, to my relive. So, after a quick shower, i woke him up, and told him that it was already 8. So, he woke up, and went to the toilet to shower. That moment, i took his handset, and find his mothers handphone number. I managed to find his mothers number without a problem. So, i took the number down, lock his phone, and continue to get ready for class
Right ? I think so. God maybe made me woke up late, so i could do so. Just my 2 cents by the way. :p Oh by the way, two of my housemates, Shafik and Nazrin fell sick. They had the same problem like me, but Shafik had the worst. He had really a bad sore throat and cold. Poor guy…
Then, continue my class like usual. During the class, i wasn’t really paying attention, as I was thinking about the plans for tonight. Then, I told Raqif, Eyol, Abe, Nain, Zaki, Joka, Nurul, Hawa, and Anna about my plans, and invited them to come along. Almost all gave me a green light, except Anna. She told me that she will think about it 1st. Well, to tell you the truth, from the moment she said that, I knew she wouln’t come for the party. But yeah, i played along. I told her to invite Ann along. I ask them during the Program design class. So, after the class was over, me, Edo, Raqif, Eyol and Abe went to eat at PS. After eating, Edo went back to SPR, and me , Eyol and Abe went back to PBBU. Eyol decided to follow me back to my house, as he had nothing to do. So, at my hose, I decided to call Edo’s mum, asking either she has plans for Edo tonight or tomorrow. Well, lucky she didn’t, and she wish all the best for the suprise Party. After the green light was given by his mum, me and Eyol went to Tesco to buy the cake for him.
During the process of buying the cake, we had problems. We didn’t know what cake to buy for him. I was already tense up, and then Eyol suggested to me to ask Edo’s mum. So, I rang Edo’s mum again. She told me that Edo doesn’t mind anything. But then Edo’s mum mention about Black Forest. Hmmm, then it came to my thought. Epo always call Edo ‘black’ or ‘Hitam’ for fun. So, I decided to buy Black Forest. His mum also insisted that he liked Black Forest, so black Forest it is. Then, i was asked whether i wanted any wording on the cake or not. Of course i did ! Hey, i wanted to give him something special. Well, I just couldn’t decided what to write. Eyol gave me a suggestion that we should write like this :
Happy Birthday Black Edo
Meaning, we slash the word “Black”. I thought it was a good idea, so i decided to go for it, and it turned out rather nicely. You can check out the picture below. After buying the cake, Nazrin gave me a call. He asked me too buy something for him, Tuna and Egg sandwich, but there was no egg and Tuna Sandwich, so he asked me to buy Black Paper Pie ( if i am not mistaken ), which cost me RM 6. Well, never mind, he had to pay me back by the way. XD
So, after that, went home, and then I asked Eyol to supervise Shafik to clean the house. Around 1.50pm, I went to my Datacom class. At class we did the rather same exercise like on Monday. hmmm, i think she is hinting something….After that, OS. Honestly, i really didn’t have much interest in OS today, because basically i was focusing on the Birthday thing. Nazrin then gave me a call, saying that he couldn’t cheap in some money, because the ATM didn’t have money. Well, looks like i have to use my money for the food for now….Epo then gave me a call, and told me he had no small change. I asked him to give me the money 1st, later I will return his change. By the way, during the OS class, edo told me the design was ready but he uploaded it to the wrong Yahoo groups. Baka ( idiot )…..Anyway, after the class, I had to follow Edo, to make sure he doesn’t come home. Lucky he went to SPR.
Now, the risk during that day, we had to prevent Edo from coming home. If not, he would definitely know about the surprise party. During that day, I had to make sure that he didn’t come home, at all cost. Every moment was a supense for me.
So, Raqif brought me to Jaya Jusco ( JJ ) for some shopping for the food. Well, I haven’t been to JJ for quite some time, so everything looked a bit weird to me. Anyway, we bought 2 packet of drumates, 2 packet of nuggets, 2 packets of Chips, 2 bottles of Vanilla Coke ( edo’s favourite, i think ), 2 bottles of Marinda Orange, and 1 bottle of Pepsi. All of them cost about RM66. Feuh, i think I paid the most…Never mind, once in a year, I guess. So, after that, we went back to PBBU, put the things in the fridge, and Raqif went back. That time was alreadi 6.30. I had a Program Design replacement class on 8, so i decided to clear the house a bit for tonight’s event. Around 7.35pm, i went out to class. Shafik told me to ask Edo to call him. Why ? I will reveal it all later.
Well, the class finished rather quiet early, as Miss shyamala told the class for those who didn’t have question could go back. I knew I had to hold Edo back for the moment. However, Edo kept on insisting me that he had to go to SPR because he had something to do. So, I decided to follow him to SPR until Shafik came. Before that, I SMS Anna, who i think didn’t came for the Replacement class for Program Design, asking her either she still wanted to come or not. As I waited for her reply, i didn’t kept my hopes high. I somehow like knew she wouldn’t want to come. Then, a few second later, the SMS arrive. Yeah, she didn’t wanted to come. But she didn’t actually say that she didn’t wanted to come. She just say that she couldn’t come because of a “bad” stomach ache. Yeah right……So, I ignore it, continue to SPR. Before this, during the PD class just now, Edo called shafik, and Shafik said he wanted to come to SPR. So, after a while, Shafik came, and i went home.
Now why did I went home ? Shafik was our spy. He will report us if Edo wants to go home or something. Smart eh ? But risky, because Edo might suspect…*glup* Well, I had to take the risk.
I really had to thank to Shafik. Even though he was sick, and the SPR room, my gawd, was like a boiler room, he sacrificed it all, and stayed with edo. Thanks man. So, I went home, Epo and Nazrin was there. Nazrin was busy playing RO Offline, the CD he got yesterday from QJ Wong during the EMINA meeting. By the way, i forgot to mention, that i came home around 9.20, so i had time to chat around with my YM with my Nain. So, basically, I reminded him to come to the birthday party. Then, Nain suddenly talk about Anna, asking me either she is coming or not ? I said that she couldn’t come. Later i knew that i was talking to Joka, instead of Nain ! Damn Joka. Anyway, Joka asked me about inviting Anna. I told him that she is not coming because she had a stomach ache ( yeah right…) Then Joka asked me did I invite Ann. I didn’t, since if Anna is not coming, then Ann defeinltly won’t come, I was thinking like that. Joka, who was currently chatting with Anna, using Nain YM id, asked about Ann to Anna ( are you guys getting this ? XD ). According to Joka, Anna said to him that Ann was also having a stomach ache. I was suprise actually. How come both of them have stomach ache at the same time ? Anyway, Joka insisted to invite Ann, and I told him to carry on. Then, I had to start to prepare for the food, so I ended my conversation with him. Around 10.30, me and Epo started to cook. I remembered how well my dad cooked the drummest and wanted to try it his way, but Epo insisted his way of cooking, so i followed it. Well, the drummest did cooked, but the skin wasn’t crispy like I expected. Oh well, as long its cooked in the inside, I think its fine. During the cooking, I asked Epo to call Edo, inviting him to go out for dinner around 11.30pm. Epo also mention he was at his friends house around the campus.
However, something didn’t turn out as plan.
The chicken took longer than expected took cook. I guess maybe because Epo’s why of cooking. Heh Heh. Then, Raqif and Abe came around 11.30. I was starting to get worried, because we just finish cooking the drummest, and we still had 2 packets of Nuggets and Chips. Lucky Raqif saved the day. He is quiet a cook i tell ya. He calmly took the situation in his hands. Oh by the way, he played a bit with my Digital Cam. Hihi. He took a few shots, like while Epo was cooking and all. Eyol came later. Nazrin suddenly went out of the house, talking to someone on the phone. I guess he was talking to someone important.
Joka, Nain, Zaki arrived around 11.50 like that. Nurul, Hawa and his hubby arrived around 11.54, just after Nain and the geng. But that time Edo called, i guess he was pissed off already, because Epo promised him around 11.30pm that he will pick him up. Then, Epo went to pick Edo up. So, we had to stop cooking. Lucky that time we already finish cooking the chicken and nuggets. So, we all help prepare everything up, Hawa even cleaned up the dishes !! Man, I was embarrassed. Thanks Hawa.
Anyway, I took out the cake. Everyone laugh when the saw the letters for the cake. Check it out :
Well, what do you guys think ? XD
Hehe, i guess it worked.
It was then 12, which leads to my next post…..
