My birthday, having fallen on a Saturday, meant that there were bound to be something happening on the Friday. My class attempted to throw a surprise party for me, which didn't really turn into a surprise because someone said the wrong thing.
Three boys came to look for me in my staffroom during their break, and one of them said, "Miss Hoo, can you please come down to the cafeteria?" I already knew something was up. Some of the others got a bit mad because they had planned to say something else; they were about to tell me one of the boys in class got into a fight at the cafeteria. If they had told me that, I would have gone flying down without a clue!
Anyway, it was still pretty thoughtful of them to take the trouble to buy the cake and stuff. Coincidentally, their English teacher's birthday was two days after mine, so they made it into a combined celebration.
This is the cake the students bought for us. It's CHOCOLATE. Yum yum yum.

This cake is lip-licking good. Mmmmmmmmm....
That night I went for dinner with a very close friend of mine. We went to TGIF, and the crew had the usual "We Will Rock You" song. Yowza!

Saturday night I went to dinner with another friend, but didn't take any photos during then.
Sunday night, went out with a bunch of my former schoolmates. We tried out this Korean restaurant in Taipan. It wasn't too bad; the food was nice and the concept interesting.
I've got cake again!
The cake was bought by my friends, not supplied by the restaurant.
Happy birthday to me...
The tedious process of cake dissection
Hai-yahhhh!!! A totally lame attempt at trying to practise Korean martial arts
Here's looking at you, kid...
All in all, my birthday wasn't too bad this year. I was half-afraid that everyone was going to forget and I was going to spend Saturday night alone. Haha! I've got bigger plans for next year though, because it's extremely rare for my birthday to fall on a weekend. Couldn't do it this year because of the lack of funds...
