Going Bananas!

I really lived up to the "Banana Man" title around the office. Was so surprised at the overwhelming celebrations by my colleagues. At 0830, while I was still half awake at my desk and touching up my hair, my dearest colleagues from Inflight, Jasmine & Azura suddenly burst open the door, sang a birthday song at the top of their lungs and quickly ran back to their office. It sure woke me up, and some others who were around.

After lunch, they bought me this frozen banana coated with chocolate and nuts from Swensen's. I never knew such snack existed. Along with that, they burst through the door again, this time with the crowd from Inflight with a Swensen's ice cream and another song. Soon after trying to get back to work, Ground Services came in with another cake. . . chocolate banana from Secret Recipe, and another song. Today's quota have way exceeded with the second slice that I had to finish.

Just before knocking off, 3 of my fellow Social Committee members came through the door again with something on their hand. I would have either fainted or hide under the table if it was another cake. Phew, they gave me this cute T shirt from Nike with a banana slogan on it.


I am quite moved by all the sweet gestures, not only from my colleagues, also from my friends and team mates. In all, I had 4 Birthdays cakes over the past few days. With all that binging, I was worried that my IPPT Gold would be jeorpadised this Sat so I went for a 2.4km trial after work. Fortunately I am still on track for the $400. . .
