I find it slightly satisfying to see Alice at least a bit surprised by the birthday surprise yesterday. Woohoo! Finally, a birthday surprise that actually surprises... I have to confess that I devised the plan and shared it with Sinnie and Thian-Peng only. It was supposed to be for MuTao, but he's too chicken to show up to the fellowship (haha). So we decided to use it toward the next birthday person, which turns out to be Alice. Good thing it worked: it's a one-time only event, and we may never use the same thing again... Thanks to Sinnie and Thian-Peng for keeping the secret for so long!
