Keaw's Birthday

The stage was set - surprise. Houda and Stefano bought the cake and drinks and Stefano called Lili. Houda would be going to France the next day so we had to have the party this night...technically the next morning - 12:02 AM. Keaw was making it hard for us to plan though because when Stefano came to my room to tell me the specifics about how we were going to get Lili in, Keaw came. Luckily we thought fast and started talking about Fast Food Nation. Keaw said she wanted to see it and so Stefano told her that he was chatting with someone right now but he would be ready in like 30 minutes. It was 11:30 and we had no intention of watching the movie. Surprises are so much fun!

At 5 minutes till, we brought all the stuff into the common room and then I went in to Keaw's room to distract her. Houda yelled down the hall 5 minutes later that she needed help in the kitchen from Keaw and when Keaw rounded the corner, we all started singing happy birthday.

The cake was sooooo good. It is made of regular cake mix with a green taffy "icing." We also had champagne and Keaw was really enjoying herself. She forgot that Robert had asked her if he could eat the red taffy rose from her cake and that she had said yes.

5 minutes later:
"Where's my rose? Who ate my rose?....Robert ate my rose! Give it back Robert!"
Robert had the face of man that was suddenly awakened while in deep thought.

Everyone: "You ate her rose?"
Robert: "Yes, but Keaw (the classic Robert pause for effect), you told me I could have it."
Keaw: "I don't care. I want my rose back. You ate my rose. Robert ate my rose."

By this time I was laughing so hard it was hard to breath. Happy 21st Keaw!
