Memories of 2 NOV 2009

Yesterday was the Birthday of my best friend Yun and the awesome dude which has made a whole lot of difference being an inspiration in the past few months, Jon. For many reasons despite my hectic report writing schedule, I want to remember this always to be reminded of the precious bonds of friendship in this past few months, thus I am again, scribbling my way through here right now.

Here goes the full story - including moments behind the scene :) i am writing this as a reminder to never forget how each and everyone has made a difference throughout the whole process.

My hsemate and I, both are friends of Yun and Jon and we would both like them to have an extremely memorable time of their lives in this very special Birthday occasion of theirs. The original plan was meant to be a simple surprise dinner for both, which was then not possible. The number of plan changed we've gone through, was an incredibly long story. Nevertheless the final plan 1 was to have a birthday dinner with Jon before we head to the airport to pick up the Birthday Princess as a surprise along with (our version of) "banner" and what not, the most precious (yet invisible) Tiara (of love) we've gotten for Yun.

The dinner plan somehow ran later than we've expected thus, a change of plan to a backyard surprise came up. Due to some unavoidable miscommunication with some of the important people of the night, the surprise was not possible hence, we've informed Yun to be home for a cut-cake and sing-song session after their dinner...Up to this point, a lot of dialogue sessions took place to clear up various misunderstanding caused by various reasons which was nevertheless pleasant (I HOPE!)

As we arrived at Yun's place, the Ling, Hoi, Yi and I happened to be the first few to arrive so we've decided to sneak into Yun's backyard and possibly try to surprise both Yun and Jon. Personally, I really felt very sorry for Jon because if the plans were have been done more properly, he wouldn't have appeared to be like the slave of the night going around helping to get things running for Yun's success surprise birthday when in fact, he too, is the Birthday boy. ANYWAY, long story short...

I was extremely pleased that the girls were so willing to always be prepared for an unexpected spontaneous plans. The four of us, hid behind the side of the backyard trying to light up the candles and sing a birthday song to both of them INSIDE the house. I personally really did not want Jon to be part of the surprise singing for just Yun and make him feel any less special because to me, they both, are as special. :)

Even though they have figured out and could probably tell it was very silly to use the backyard plan again, but I felt so fulfilled standing there by Ling and the girls as we sang them the birthday song. I was really really happy yesterday night. At one point, I think I could just sleep on the comfy red couch at Yun's place due to the lack of sleep in the past two days but seeing the happy faces with their giggles throughout the night, the ambience is just the most perfect one ever!

:) at the end of the night, I realised that what matters isn't how smooth it all goes as your initial surprise birthday plan but how delight everyone felt as the whole. I can't emphasise more how important every single one who was present has made so much difference last night. It wouldn't be possible without any one of them.

the highlight of the night, was when we asked Yun to wear a white shirt with RANDOM alphabets in which she was trying hard to figure out if those words even made any sense. I made her stood in front of the window to be able to see her own reflection in order to find out what the alphabets really meant. and she did. stood there for a few seconds before I jumped from behind to reveal what it was all really about...

as soon as she figured out, she turned to me in tears and next, we're both in tears. no one could tell what really happened but we both know that it was the most memorable moments of our friendship today. Yun and I have been through a lot, together or not, we've shared so much to the extent that sometimes, we couldnt even really describe our bond in words. But the connection that we shared, was so true. I knew it right away last night as we embraced each other in tears. From that moment, I instantly know that.. our friendship would never changed no matter how things would be. Even if we've not been truly connected verbally for the past few months, when you have strong connection with this person, it would not change the bond unless your heart changed...

happy birthday, 2 nov babies...
