The Big Birthday!!!

days are passing by. i want to make the most out of each day. i always plan my birthday in a big way. and every time I feel something is amiss. Maybe a friend didn’t come, or the restaurant wasn’t cool and so on. This time I felt I should spend some time with family and some time alone. But again, this plan didn’t work out!!!! The full details are given below-

November 1

Mum and I went for shopping today. it was for the1st time in my life that I blew 50000 bucks in a span of two days!!! I wont forget the look mum gave me when she signed the credit card slip!!! Dad gave me a new laptop for birthday. In short, I was content with the gifts I received. But the real gift was yet to come…

November 2

12:00 am
Understood the real meaning of the phrase “ being flooded with phone calls”!!!
Received more than fifty calls. My ear went all hot and red by the time the calls ended. But personally speaking, I felt very happy that so many people had taken the pains to remain awake till midnight to wish me. After the usual “happy birthday” calls, I spent at least an hour talking to my 2 close friends- Manu & Tulika. We were talking that how things would be different after I leave. Tulika was telling me how happy she was ‘coz I was pursuing my dream. But I know, that at the same time, she was wiping tears. Manu got very emotional and it took all my might to stop my eyes from welling up.

2:00 pm
Was enjoying a yummy-yummy meal with parents and some family friends. Suddenly I get a call from Isha (my best buddy). She wanted to meet me. I told her that I would catch her at a coffee shop within 15 minutes. After some starters, I told mum that I would be back in an hour, jumped behind the wheel and rushed off. All this time I didn’t suspect or even get a hint of what was going to happen ahead. I spotted Isha outside the coffee shop. after a quick hug, we walk into Cross CafĂ©. Suddenly…

BANG-BANG BOOM-BOOM!!!!
All my friends appear, screaming “Happy Birthday” on top of their lungs. It took a whole minute to let that moment sink in. my friends- kritika, snigdha, pooja, isha, ishan, aditya & neeraj- had made a fool-proof plan to give me a surprise bash. And they were very much successful!!! After the party, I and ishan were returning home. He asked me if I liked the surprise. My smile was enough to answer his question.

Honestly speaking, this was one of the best birthdays I had. I was really touched. This is one memory that will always bring a smile on my face. I would like to say a big thanks to all my friends. It was the biggest gift they could give me. Luv you all!!!
But I have only one complaint. Its for God-



Dear God,
Why don’t MY plans ever work out the way I want!!!! :P

The day to say ‘adios’ is just 6 days away. I just hope I make the best of these 6 days.

Regards to all.

P.S : guys, the cake was really tasty….dark chocolate!!
