Surprise...
So, today was going to be a fairy average day. Laura invited me shopping and for a late lunch, which was fabulous as I was in need of a few things. Around 1-ish she arrives, I get a call from her (as she's pretty rubbish at finding my house so this isn't too odd.), wander out towards her car.
Her car is covered in balloons, drawings of birthday cakes and so on. Turn to my right. James, Bryony and Liam come running towards me (with masks), dressed as ninjas. They immediately pick me up, blindfold me and throw me into the car. Everyone gets in and they attempt (and fail miserably) to be threatening, end up discussing god knows what with Liam munching soft mints. But I digress.
They figure out pretty quickly I have an annoyingly good sense of direction so Laura stops in a car park, pretending to turn round roads and so on. It's not long into this I discover there is another car load, with both Rosies, Pennia, Catherine and Georgia (who I assume has also been subjected to kidnapping as her birthday was Wednesday).
It was a Potter party! (Group of us are at the same drama group who are all extras in HP and have bonded there, we throw epic parties for them, the standards are upping it must be said.)
Back to the story, they make comments about various things, Liam expressing his concern for my 2 inch heels, not being suitable for the "cliff" I am to climb, and they jest we're visiting the zoo and so on.
As I'm being led from a car park and across streets until finally I reach stairs, I get some sense of direction and guess I'm at quaser.
Good god I'm a genius. It is quaser. Blindfold removed, I'm in quaser, along with a confused Georgia surrounded by the Potter lot in ninja gear.
Seriously in love with these people, best birthday surprise ever!
So after an awesome game of quaser, in which our team slaughtered the other (900 to 200ish, hell yeaaah.), it was time for chinese buffet. Extreme food baby. Then we headed back to mine for a few hours where everyone discovered the beauty of my Godzilla Kig and Crocodile costume. Then came the presents and homemade card (with amazing personal notes <3). Plasticine (in several colours!), marker pens, digital photographer magazine, an Art Attack book and a little something else they got for a laugh. Actually in love with my gifts, they're hilarious!
Then we split up for various food trips before rejoining each other at Georgia's house. (Milkshakes, pizza, curry, coke and chocolate. Epic win.) It was about 10/11 when we finally cleared off home, had a chat with my brother before coming upstairs to share this with the internet. Why not?
What a day <3
