fake birthday

was in korea for last two weeks....we were actually at the 3rd largest city in korea...somehow, the place we were at were quite boring....actually, we just found out after 4 - 6 weeks there that it was not so small afterall...it was because we were being put at a hotel that was quite far from the city and we didnt bother to explore coz we all assumed that the place was not that big..how wrong were we...anyway, to entertain ourselves, we went to TGIF (AKA thank god it's friday) one night after dinner...TGIF is a chain western restaurant.....well, korea is famous for kimchi (DUH), and korean bbq (YAY)...the only thing abt it is that most restaurants in korea are quite specialised...they only sell one thing at a time...so if u go to a beef bbq, u only get beef, if u go to seafood restaurant, they only serve seafood...but most koreans love beef..naturally most bbq restaurants serve only beef...so since i give up on beef already, everytime we visited korean bbq, i found myself eating only the side dishes with rice....why? u may ask...hehehe..let me tell u the reasons (in indian ascent)....because we had around 13 ppl there...except for another gal who doesnt eat beef coz of religion, the rest love beef more than anything...and we didnt want to make everyone sacrificed just because two ppl don't eat beef....so two of us usually just attacked the side dishes.....anyway, after so many sacrifices, both of us were craving for real food so one day after dinner, we went to TGIF for dessert....yum...since we were all so bored in that place...an idea came to me...i saw so many ppl celebrating bdays...and TGIF had this special team singing bday song.....to spice up our lives, an idea came to me...since everyone's bday was not around the corner, but we didnt have to have bday in order to celebrate..so we told the waiters that it was our colleague's bday that day...oh..the singing band came and gave him a bday hat...it was cute..and they started singing and we started playing...it was fun~~~~but my colleague was guilty coz he lied to them (BTW, his bday wont be here until november) hehehehe...here are some pics to share~~~~Happy bday M!!!!!!!
