El 30 cumpleaños de Thomas era algo que habia que celebrar por todo lo alto, asi que prepare una fiestecita sorpresa en la Universidad con la ayuda de uno de sus compañeros, David.
La idea era sencilla, hacer algo con la gente de mi grupo y del suyo aprovechando el buen tiempo. Encargue pizzas por la mañana, bebidas y David y yo fuimos en su coche a comprar mas cervecita. Menos mal que pude contar con el!! Ademas, fue tan generoso de comprar toda la cerveza, una tarta de limon y cosas de picoteo.
Ademas, cuando fuimos al supermercado tambien compramos gorritos de fiesta :) en una tienda tipica americana "The Dollar Store", la version americana del todo a 100 :)
Mande el email de quedada a las 5 y media de la tarde en el patio que hay en el edificio donde trabajamos. Elegi un complice, Sabil, que hablo con Thomas para reunirse y hablar sobre un articulo que estan escribiendo, jeje! Todo mentira, todos los dias se reunen, pero no ese dia!! jaja! Thomas no sospecho nada :)
Un poco mas tarde de las 5:30 estabamos todos alli con nuestros gorros de fiesta y las trompetitas, esperando al cumpleañero. Yo creo que se sorprendio gratamente, esa era la intencion, al menos :) Podeis ver las fotos abajo. Adios!!
Thomas' 30th birthday needed a nice celebration so I decided to prepare a small surprise party at University with the help of one of Thomas' colleagues, David.
It was a simple idea, just having some food and drinks with all our colleagues. I ordered some pizzas in the morning and soft drinks and David was very kind to drive me to the supermarket to buy the drinks. He was amazing and took care of all the drinks, a nice cake and snacks. Afterwards we got party hats and trumpets at a "Dollar store" :) I went there for the first time, hehe! Similar to some Spanish stores with the same concept.
I sent an email to both groups to meet in the court yard of our building at 5:30. I asked one of Thomas' colleagues, Sabil, to help me bringing Thomas to the celebration. They are writing a review paper together so I asked him to "schedule a meeting to talk about the review" with Thomas :) It wasn't true!!! hehehe!
At around 5:40 everyone was at the court yard waiting for Thomas, who hasn't heard anything about it. I think he really liked it, he was surprised and he didn't expect anything at all :) We had a very nice time preparing the party and having fun with our colleagues. You can see the pictures below. Bye!!
