One Week Ago...

One week ago, I took part in a surprise birthday plan for my classmate. Surprisingly, it was headed by her faraway friend, as she had already come back by that day. I drew a card, took three days though, as her gift and shared a part in buying her a sweet pink shirt. And, yes, everything went smoothly.

Zie Yang and I arrived much earlier than the group escorting the birthday girl. We met Chi Phoy and Eugene, being there before my school ended. We chatted for a few minutes and I felt someone was on the stair. It was a person in white shirt. I was about to say "hello" to her when I finally realised I got the wrong person, I sighed at that idea, even until now. Just then, the whole gang arrived. We got everything prepared within the next five minutes, and it was time for birthday wishing! The birthday girl was wishing something that I couldn't hear properly but perhaps this was what she wished for:

"I wished I would be married by the age of 50."

ROFL. To the birthday girl, no offense, just joking. Among all the happy moments, I regretted in myself for a while. I did not say "hello" to the right person. Well, I guess I will do it later, if I'm fortunate enough, that is. After the cake was half-finished, we decided to open the gifts. Her faraway friend gave her a Do-It-Yourself shirt, in this case, it's Do-It-Herself shirt. It was pretty , very well-done indeed. Then there was this novel from "Twilight Series" that she received from her schoolmates. I heard the book is quite interesting, maybe I will check it out later. Another gift opened was the one from Ka Hau, Cheah and me------the pink shirt. Glad she liked it.>__<
Ah, I forgot the final present she got. Too bad.

I was quite amazed by this event. How a faraway friend would go great lengths just to make sure her friendship would last forever, and that the one and only thing that kept her separated from her friend was distance, and only distance. I had never believed in the term "best friend", standing on that best friend is me myself. Perhaps this event showed me it does exist, somehow.

Now, it's holiday for both of them. Hope they will be able to spend time together happily before she has to, again, depart. May good fortune bestow them. Eh, bestow me too nah!
