Sana’s Birthday

As I have previously mentioned, Eighth of December falls on Sana’s Birthday (pun intended :P)

She is a very dear friend of ours (Read: all my classmates), so we planned a ‘big’ surprise for her ‘big’ day. Some of us (Read: me, Deepti, Mohnish, Richa, Nidhi, et al) contributed some money and bought a ‘big’ teddy bear for her. (Oh yeah… she’s a ‘big’ fan of them!).

However, there was a small problem. Deepti was supposed to buy the teddy and bring it to college, and Sana, Deepti and Mohnish come to college together. So if Sana spotted Deepti carrying the ‘big’ package, the surprise would ruin, isn’t it?

To counter this, Deepti went to the college alone (Mohnish couldn’t come.. He caught flu), and I went with Sana to give her company. Consequently, I was the first person from her college buddies to wish her personally. But that’s immaterial. ;)

Once Deepti was in college, she promptly deposited that package into Vipin’s car. (The celebration was to start sometime later). Vipin tried to ruin the surprise, but he was properly handled. ;)

Meanwhile, Sana was getting all suspicious because something was not just right. I, who doesn’t usually travels by metro in the morning, had given her company during her commute, while her other ‘good’ friends – Deepti and Mohnish had failed to turn up. Plus, she was getting intrigued by Vipin’s comments. (Although I must add that she kinda knew beforehand that some surprise was going to be planned for her. We’ve been doing this for others all through the year.)

Anyway, even after she’d got a wind of things, she tried to act pleasantly surprised when her gift was finally presented to her… The teddy, which she has now named Ranjan (though I’m not quite sure of that!) :P

A cake was bought from Kamla Nagar, along with candles, knife and a Hannah Montana birthday cap. Sana was made to wear the cap, and after she’d blown the candles and cut the cake, the cream was properly deposited on every part of her face. :D

This was followed by a photo-session and a treat (sponsored by the birthday gal) in the now legendary Momo’s Point of North Campus. We ate & drank, and experienced tripti in full measure! Since Momo’s Point also happens to be Sana’s favorite food joint, she was extremely happy (even when she had to foot the entire bill!! :P).

The day was filled with fun and frolic to the fullest…

And the best thing was, Sana was happy. I wish her happiness for the whole of her life ahead.

Jai Hind!!!
