Exactly one week before Yoke's birthday, Louis sent me a sms reminding all about Yoke's birthday. I was like:" Huh?! It's almost August!", which I didn't realize at all!
Picked up the phone and started calling L,
"How? How? How? What should we buy for his birthday?"
L :" I have no idea, he seems like having all the things he needs!".
Then I was thinking, why not paying him a concert ticket?! Surfing on EventMalaysia website, and found one concert! Jeff Chang concert live in Genting end of September, AGAIN!
I remember Y told me he regretted that he didn't go for the concert last year! Well, now Jeff is coming to Malaysia again; I think it's not bad to buy him two tickets for his birthday too!
Picked up the phone and called L, after we discussed, "Hmmm....not a very good idea!".
Disregard the plan!
Driving home from work, was thinking about presents....
"Tling!"
Called L immediately.
"Hey, what's your budget ah?",
L :"xxxxxx",
me :"OK! What do you think about iPod Touch?! He mentioned that he wanted to buy one.",
L :"Ohh...ok! Let me call the others!",
After one day....contacting all friends and the overseas...
Friends are all ON for this!
Started the plan!
If purchase Apple product from the internet, will get free engraving! Saw my sister's iPad with engraving before, it does look very nice! So we decided to buy through the INTERNET!
Typed in the words and payment details... The delivery date stated 5th August?!!
Two freaking days after his birthday?! Noooooo! This is so not happening! The Internet said one day courier?! How come?!
So I called Apple center. Apparently, the warehouse is at oversea, the ONE DAY delivery means from oversea to Malaysia. After immigrations, delivers state to state...needs another 2-3 days?!!
Then I told the lady on the phone :"But my friend's birthday is on Wednesday?! Can't it be a little faster?".
Of course the lady said :"I'm sorry, that is the procedure..."
Still.... We carry on for the online purchase! Ahhh....what the hell! We need the engraving!
All we need is wait.....
Louis suggested making a big birthday card, so he collected all the messages from friends and made the card which is directly related to APPLE!
The birthday card turns out very nice! He did a great job on drawing all the Apple logos!
3rd August has arrived, everyone's greeting Yoke a happy birthday!
11:03am, my sister called :"Hey! Your iPod has arrived!!"
Oh thank God it arrives on the day!! That's unexpected!
Called L immediately, but he was working and only can pick it up after 8pm.
Thus, my sis came out with a crazy idea!
She would pretend as a worker from DHL and call Y saying that there's a parcel going to send to him, and the delivery man would be my dad's worker!
Started with the fake DHL employee phone calls to Y and successfully delivered the parcel to his hands with a piece of fake DHL delivery invoice that I made!
Wahahahaha!
It was 5:12pm.
Y was busy working and left the present in the house....
it was almost midnight...
At last..
He opened it!
Ta daaaaa!
Wishing you a Happy Birthday again and have fun with your iPod!
From all of us who contribute to this lovely present!
