Donny's birthday Celebration

Our apartment alliance hosted Donny's birthday celebration...

We're sort of like cooking this idea of surprise party since two weeks ago. The plan was that we're going to celebrate it at midnight and throw some rotten eggs on him *which all are the tradition of undegrad birthday celebration in Indonesia*.

So, we invited some people in addition to our alliance members (Zul, Jovin, Hanvin, Irene, Wing, Ashu, Elves, Martin) and sort of created a diversion technique so that he wouldn't find out our presence in his apartment. 1's family plus Zul went to Cinemark to watch a movie when we arrived. 11's family prepared the cake, the pops, the chips, and other things necessary to make this birthday wonderful.



A little glitch in the surprise: Jovin parked his car in Donny's parking space. Of course, this must have triggered Donny's curious mind. Probably that is the reason of his not-so-surprised expression when he opened the door and we all shouted "surprise!".



But, he did like his gifts (PS Game and a bottle of 45% cinnamon wine, the last one is Cipto's and my idea),



he blew the candle, was forced to give a speech (Olive *Donny's girlfriend*, if you read this, we made him say something to you in the video! Email me if you want it!), and drank up his wine (and his face was red all over of being intoxicated!)



we took pictures of the guests and the hosts,

and we (me, Cipto, Zul and Lavin) did throw some eggs on him.



We had a great time.

Aftermath, guests went home stuffed, 1's family gossiped in Raymond's room, 11's family + Zul played the PS game. What an excellent aftermath!
