Sharon’s birthday is coming soon and I have made some plans for her.  

I tried to surprise her in the past few years but when I told her that I have some surprise for her and confidently claimed that she would never guess what I have planned, she got it correct on her first guess.  

Demoralizing right!

She always knows what I have planned! I can never surprise her.

So this time around I decided to tell her I have some plans on her birthday but I refuse to let her guess what it is.

I am quite confident that it will surprise her but then again, I probably can’t hide anything from her…

Darling knows best…

I was sitting in the living room surfing the net when my mobile phone alarm suddenly went off.

Was wondering what happened?!

Upon checking I got a BIG shock!

I have got a calendar reminder with the following: “Dear’s Birthday (Banyan Tree).”

OMG! How did Banyan Tree gets into my mobile phone calendar? Is this one of their marketing tactics? hmm…how could that be possible?  

I immediately turn around and tell Sharon about it.

And guess wat… she just giggled without saying a word.

Then I realised…duh…

It is not Banyan Tree but my lovely wife. She wanted to remind me to bring her to Banyan Tree on her birthday and secretly input reminders into my calendar.

And it’s set in “repeated every year” mode some more…

Chey…and I thought Banyan Tree was so formidable…

But now I am so tired that I don’t even have strength to climb a tree… don’t talk about Banyan Tree.
