Slept @ 3am the night before is seriously no joke. Woke up slightly pass 10am, washed up and immediately went to prepare. Met up with Allynn & Lionel at Causeway Point for our secret mission 102 which is actually to grab a cake from Icing Room and a balloon from the florist. Michael came long at about 12 noon and we'd all ready to go.
Oh yes, we had some fun decorating the cake at Icing Room though. Here's a picture of it!

We set off to Eileen's workplace to meet up with Zhi Hong for the surprise. We were slightly early so we waited for the birthday girl to off work.
We initially had a couple of plans like hiding Allynn in the boot... or perhaps we can just appear in Zhi Hong's car... and the list goes on. Well, end up settled for one which is to hide at the stairs and surprise her when she finishes work. But well, it ended up being a epic fail. LOL.
While we were preparing to walk over her exact office location (we parked further back so as to avoid being spotted) and I was happily strolling and fooling around with the balloon... Eileen appeared infront of us. LOL. It was a very, epic failure moment. #epicfail
Anyhow, we managed to whisper a happy birthday song, blew the candles, made a wish, took some pictures and off we went to Victor's Kitchen at Sunshine Plaza by the request of the birthday girl.
It was my first time there at Victor's Kitchen (same goes for Eileen) so Allynn introduced some dishes and etc. Well... I would say that the food isn't too bad but... the service is seriously shit. The entire time while we were there, we had to take our own bowls. When we tried to pass the order forms to the lady, she simply told me "I'm very busy, go to the counter yourself (in an extremely rude tone as if I owed her a million)." And somehow I think the bowls are either too heavy or too hot because they can't place it on the table nicely they somehow just need to throw or drop it on the table. They just had to, really. I have no freaking idea why. What's worst? They suddenly had a "internal quarrel" and they were talking in Cantonese (which 99% of the time I couldn't understand what they were saying but they sounded like they were quarrelling). It's kinda stressful eating in that environment actually.
We ordered a fair share of food for 6pax and the bill was about $72? Let me recall what did we had...
- 6 milk tea (it's pretty cool, the drinks doesn't have ice but it's surround by a bowl of ice)
- 3 bowl of porridge
- 3 bowl of XO carrot cake
- 2 Lava egg yolk bun
- 2 Crystal wrap prawns (Har Gaw)
- 2 Siew Mai
- 1 plate of fried tofu skin something
- 1 plate of prawn dumpling (I think)
That should be about all.
After the stressful brunch, we headed over to ECP for a cycle!
Here's a group shot with iPhone 5's front camera and filter from Instagram!
Cycled for about 2 hours before we parted from them for dinner. It was a great cycling session! :)

Dear BFF,
Hope you had enjoyed a simple cosy birthday celebration from all of us. May we continue to celebrate our birthdays for the next 55 years and so on. Perhaps 50 years from now, we will be cycling down the same route we did today and reminiscing about our youth together. Happy 22nd birthday!
With love,
Ranielle
