i am so sad...i just called the spore airlines service centre to ask about the $800 deal to and from new york to spore. apparently, there is no such deal. =( my chances of going back is soooo much slimmer..that sucks. i have been thinking of going back for such a long time, waiting for the summer hols to come. it's not like i will really die if i don't go back....but i keep dreaming that i'm back and that the time i have back is really short. so maybe, subconciously, i really want to go back to see everybody, and che and the place. don't think i really will have the time to go back the next few summers, so this is my only chance!! oh well...see how things go..
anyways, anyways, yesterday was vinny's b'day. =D -10th May. =) everything went really smoothly...well sorta..i'll say why later.. yup, he didn't even guess that i had something up my sleeve...HEHEHE...I AM GOOD...hai...that is a gross understatement. =D okok...enough of the ego inflation. =) anyway, yup, had been planning everything for the longest of time. this was what happened the day before his b'day:
borrowed their apartment key from derrick when vinny went out to play tennis in the morning. we had lunch when he got back, then we left the apartment together. he had to go see his advisor and i was supposedly going to walk along st catherine's to look for his present. anyway, the moment he left, i walked right back up and snuck back into their apartment, got out all the stuff, and frantically started to bake the surprise cake. couldn't do it at my place cos the stoopid oven's spoilt..yup..in like 5 minutes, he called and said he was done with his advisor. *CRAP!!!!* then he said he was gonna walk around abit and shop for shorts. i tried to persuade him to walk around a bit, and not come home so fast. note that this task needs a great amount of skill to include just the right amount of persuasion power without sounding too pushy, or make him suspect that there was something fishy going on. hehehe... yup..anyway, i managed to finish making the brownie, clear up the place, and put it into the oven by the time he called to say that he was on his way back. =D i then locked up and ran up to the roof, waited for awhile, and then called him again to say that i was done shopping and i was going to come up. i STILL had to take the brownie outta the oven mah. heheh...anyway, he was writing his mother' day card, while i was just bouncing around the apartment, waiting for the brownie to be done...heheh...NOTE again that this requires a lot of skill to carry out the 'crime' right under his nose...HAHAH....yup, and i realised that he would actually be able to smell it while it was cooking. *CRAP!!* so i sneaked out the air freshener and must've sprayed a whole bottle load, cos he opened the door and asked me what i was doing spraying so much..hehe..i told him the rubbish smelled really bad.. hah.... he came out later and smelt it anyways, and asked me what was the thing which smelt so good..haha..i couldn't wipe off the guilty smile on my face, and i thought at that moment that my game was over. that i had been caught and discovered.heheeh....but nooo....i racked my brains really quickly and came up with the reason, that i was toasting the m&ms i bought. he actually bought that reason!! hahah...he trusts me so much!! he doesn't even doubt that i would bluff him....awww....=) anyways, yup...i managed to finish baking it before i went home to wash up and smuggle in more stuff later. snuck back into their apartment when they went to chinatown for dinner...hehe...wrote the words on the cake, and took it and the rest of the stuff to the roof. cycled to dairy queen to meet them for dessert. hahah...my plan was almost complete! on the way back, derrick rode my bike..silly person! wobbling to and fro..hehe...anyways he scared me and vinny, when he rode up being us and screeched like some crazy witch..hehe...
anyways, i stayed for awhile before i said i was gonna leave cos if i stayed another night, my mum was surely gonna scream at me. that was like around 11:40 already..i left, and quickly went to the roof. took everything to the bottom of the empty pool and started setting it up and lighting the candles.. that was when i thought i heard something, and the thought came into my mind that it was a lil spooky all alone by myself in the dark there lighting candles. i looked around and there didn't seem to be anything. the next time i looked up, however, there was this figure standing at the opposite side of the pool, motionless, just staring at me..i thought it was just my imagination, like how you sometimes think objects are ppl in the dark..but i realised that i wasn't imagining. it was the stoopid guard, decked out in his full suit ( which makes it all the more scary) just staring at me. i bet he was trying to freak me out...he is kinda psychotic. but i did not succumb to his evil, mean trick.i just talked to him calmly and said i'd put out the candles as soon as i surprised vinny. anyway, he let me stay after much negotiating. stoopid guard. hmmf. yup.....okok..called vinny up, surprised him...hahah..totally..with my cake, prezzie,'card', pseudo champagne and wine glasses and the music. took some photos too.=) too bad my happy surprisy mood was kinda spoilt cos i was still a lil shaken up by the guard. and it was such a nice starry night too. so we went down after a while...and that was the end of it lah..=) he was really happy though....i was dead tired.
we didn't do that much the next day...we were planning to get up early to go to mt royal to watch the sunrise, but OBVIOUSLY, we didn't make it. just walked around town after we got up, came back and played a bit of jenga, relaxed a lil before dinner.
we actually went for this indian buffet...ate soo much!!! man..
anw, that was about it for the day....written so much!! crazy..haha..wonder who's gonna read it...oh well..doesn't matter. =)
okok...got a bit of a headache..gonna go sleep soon. lata!! =)
