the hard work behind the glamour of an 18th bday party




If you watched the video above, you prolly know that we threw a GREAT birthday party for YL. Well, our plan was divided into 3 parts:

1. 18 presents for the 18 year old girl
2. hidden camera where me and SH pretend to fight
3. compose an original song for her
We met up MANY times before the actual date to plan this mega huge ass party.

30th March - 1st meetup
After work, me and SH met up with XY. Had dinner at Graffati Cafe before heading off elsewhere to find a place to discuss. In the end, we went to the tables outside the cinema cause SH wanted to eat popcorn. Turns out to be a bad decision because there's this huge screen which is constantly playing movie trailers. All of us got distracted, duh, and we ended the "meeting" at around 11 +.

We discussed on the 18 presents...


5th April - 2nd meetup:
I distinctively remember the 2nd meeting. It was the day after my camp (DAMN TIRING!!!) and XY came over to my house to discuss writing YL's song. We worked very hard on the song and im proud of it! Good thing that XY's course study this kind of thing. If not, we would never make it :D I wrote the lyrics (SH contributed one line, lol).

After that, we went to find SH. Discussed abit until YL suddenly called her. SH used this chance to "plant the seed" of our fight. Basically our fight is about both of us liking the same guy from work. Mega lol! YL actually believed it. If it were me, i would have rofl! The idea of us fighting over a guy is so ridiculous!!! But nvm, SH planted the seed.

8th April - 3rd meetup:
This is the day where i went out with all my sisters. Our plan was this: SH to be late so that i can scold her and have an argument in front of YL. Then, we slowly proceed to make a mountain out of a molehill. We didnt have to worry about the "SH coming late" because she's always late for at least an hour. So XY, YL and me went to Manhattan Fish Market to eat first. By the time we finished eating, SH still hadn't arrive. In the end, we decided to take away. We went to NLB to charge my phone while waiting for SH's arrival.

She was late by 2 hours (Y)
When she came, i immediately bickered with her. The argument was so funny that i kept turning my head away from YL so she wouldnt see that i was laughing. The conversation went a little like this:

ME: Walao. Why you late again?
SH: Sorry la, overslept
ME: I told you to sleep early yesterday right? Faster eat your food la.
SH: Cannot eat here la!
ME: Who says? There's no sign.
SH: I saw the no food sign below
ME: But this level dont have right? Faster eat!

Then YL stopped our argument. Anyway, we got chased out of NLB because we cant charge our phone in the specific location -.-
And so, the awkward atmosphere began. Watched Rio and the situation lightened a little. But after that, we went to eat yogurt and YL thought i was crying!! HAHAHA I was covering my mouth with my hands (cause i wanted to laugh so badly) but i guess my eyes were watery?

Went shopping. We pretended to shop for our stuff while in fact, we were shopping for her present, haha. But ok la, me and SH did buy some clothings ^^ The rest of the day was the same - fight, awkward, fight. While taking the mrt home, i told YL the story of how we fell in love with the same guy and why we fight. I spun the story on the spot and luckily it was believable, whew!

Basically, at the end of the day, YL was 100% convinced that SH and me were in a serious fight. She even wants to "have a talk" on our next meeting, which is 22nd April (aka YL's surprise bday celebration).

12/4/11 - 4th meetup
Went to SH's house to record and film our mv! I uploaded it on facebook but its privatized so you cant see it at all, muhahaha! I think our voices ruined the song cause everyone is out of tune/not harmonised!! HAHAHAHA but nvm, its the thoughts that matter and believe me, we put a lot of thought into it!

As you can (not) see, my wallpaper is Tsubasa Masuwaka, a really pretty Japanese model. But XY say some people might mistake my intention for putting her as my wallpaper. So i had to change to FT island. WHY GIRL CANNOT PUT GIRL AS WALLPAPER HUH? WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT? )':







... or so they say ;)


15/4/11 - 5th meetup
SH and XY came to find me after work to do our scrapbook. We did it outside Scape where there are seats. Unfortunately its quite dark and its not sheltered at all! Unless you count trees as shelters? Then a caterpillar dropped from the tree somemore LOL! Ok, random photos that we took. omg, i cant believe that i had the stupid fringe tied up in Scape. What was i thinking? *faints





trying to show our big nostrils, lol.




THE SANDARA-PARK HAIRSTYLE AGAIN! Lol, its the hairstyle that i always tie at home because its so simpe to do, it requires only one hairtie and it keeps all the hair away from the face! :D






18th April & 19th April - 6th & 7th meetup
Was supposed to meet them to continue our scrapbook making but i forgot to bring it. In the end, XY came to my house but achieved nothing as something cropped up. So i met up with SH on Tues (XY not free). She came to my sch and complained why there isn't any escalator, lol! Did our scrapbook @ Starbucks until it was their closing time.

22th April - the actual day!
Met up at around 1 to do our cake. As usual, SH was late. Went to meet YL at 2+. "Fought" with SH as usual. Then we did the dare. YL said afterwards that the reason why she didnt refuse was because she was tired to. HAHAHHA. She kept laughing and XY thought she figured out our surprise leh! Cause on our facebook group i wrote "Are we going to her bday party or are we planning one?" At that time it didnt matter as YL's computer was down. But a few days before the actual event, she saw it!!

AND WHILE WALKING, THIS GIRL CAME UP AND SAY "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" TO YL LEH! Me and XY were panicking and i had to say to the girl that it wasnt a birthday party. She gave an embarrased and confused look :/

Meanwhile, SH ran up to kbox and got the room ready. But due to some delay, XY led YL in circles. YL thought she was walking in a maze hahahaha! We brought her into the room and surprised her. BUT THAT WASN'T ALL!

Our plan was to keep on bickering until i run out of the room to get YL her box of presents. But in the end, it was SH who ran out. And just before she ran out, i banged on the table angrily and stood up. Great timing indeed! (Y)

YL almost chased after SH. But luckily XY stopped her and ran after SH instead. Then they came in with the box and we revealed everything, heehee :D
So yup, a very successful plan. YL was sorta upset cause she dont like to be surprised. She said that whenever someone tries to give her surprise, she'll figure out. And usually is she surprise people, not the other way round.

But yeah, she appreciate our efforts... BECAUSE IF SHE DIDNT, I WOULD'VE KILL HER.
Just kidding ^^














So yup! THIS WAS THE SECRET MISSION I WAS TALKING ABOUT. HAHAHA! I took quite a long time to put this up because i had to do the behind-the-scenes video first. And when i finally finished it, something cropped up and i felt that it wasnt the right timing to put it up. But now, here it is~ :D

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YL! LOVE YOU TTM ^^

PS, i was doing this post on the car and my stomach got queasy. I think i got car sick. I used to be anti-car sick leh! Omg, i think im gonna puke soon T____T
