jim the clown
April 5, 2015Toots turned 28 this week.
As usual, we love to make it special for one another. Special = totally embarrassing. Seriously, we’re really just little children inside….
It was a working day and Toots works in a corporate environment where everything is serious and well… proper. Last birthday, Asma’ and I stood with balloons and sombrero hats at the Petronas lobby waiting for her. So this time, it’s gotta be worse.
Imagine a clown for hire standing next to her while she awkwardly does paperwork and go for meetings? HILARIOUS!!
And of course, Asma’ being Asma’, got the job done. She found this on google:
Ohhh Jim The Clown, where have you been all my life?! Haha.
We seriously considered the idea but we thought poor Jim will just be escorted out by Petronas security guards. So fine, abort mission. BUT we told Toots that Jim The Clown will be coming. So let us know when he pops by into your office.
She freaked out the whole day, probably always looking behind her to see if a clown has just walked into her office. “Guys, stop it. Seriously, guys. Did you really book a clown to follow me around?” Paranoid birthday girl messaged. We just answered “Just let us know when he arrives. We paid for whole day rental so he should be there soon.”
BAHAHAHAAH.
Jim the Clown didn’t come of course.
But Vivy the Best Friend did.
At the Petronas lobby with my Let’s-Embarrass-Toots kit.
People kept giving me looks. Like what… never seen a cow balloon before? They’re lucky I didn’t bring the sombrero hats.
Now, before you think Asma’ and I got her something from Louis Vuitton…. well we did. But just the box.
*28-year old tears
Well, it’s the thought that counts no?
So when I arrived at the lobby I messaged her phone.
“Jim the Clown is downstairs. Please come down NOWWW!”
“I’m in a meeting. Can’t.”
CORPORATE PEOPLE ARE SO BORING.
“Come on! Just say you’re going on a toilet break.”
No reply.
“Jim the Clown does not like to wait. He might come up to your floor if you don’t come down.”
She came down.
We actually slipped something in that tissue box, so don’t worry, it wasn’t all that bad for birthday girl Toots. Deep down in our hearts, somewhere down there, we do love her after all.
Dear best friend of almost 20 years, you really are a diamond in the rough. Kind to everyone even those who hurt you, strong as no one will ever know, and just downright amazing, people around you should know how lucky they are. I know I am one of the lucky ones. I wish you nothing but happiness and barakah in this life, and especially in the hereafter. Enjoy your LV box.
subhanAllah!! Lucky her to have both of you as her bff..! How I wish i have one too!
She must’ve been so annoyed and touched at the same time! Hahaha! Love her top and pants, where are they from?
omg so sweet la you guys :’) definitely a friendship goals!
Jahat nya! But that’s what best friends do! For my best friend’s birthday last year, I told her I would delete all her embarrassing pics on my phone (fetus pictures ok!!) as a gift! She was like, “YEAH GREAT FRIEND OK WOW”. I only did it because they were filling up my memory space!
Earlier this month, it was my other best friend’s birthday and it was a total surprise fail! But I got her a pink Barbie cake to embarrass her and she was kinda pissed bcs she HATES Barbies but I told her it was either the Barbie or Winnie The Pooh so she decided ok la barbie also ok.
Love her top!
I wanna be your friend tooooo hehe. You’re so funny I love all your posts here and Instagram. I admire you but I so shy to say, so this is my first attempt to leave a comment hehe. And you just give me idea to suprise my friend’s birthday by giving her “LV handbag” but the truth is…hehe. Please kiss Daniel and Mariam for me they’re sooo adorable <3 May Allah bless you and your family, Inshaallah Amin. #goawaygrammarnazi #caniusehashtaghere #whatever
