my roommate's birthday
Today's my dear roommate's birthday!
I'm so happy for her.
I've only known her for about three months now, but she's now one of my dear friends.
Her name is Sae-Ip. How pretty is her name!
Poor Sae-Ip, her birthday is just before the finals, so she said she cannot play on her birthday.
So I decided to surprise her by making a brown-seaweed soup early in the morning.
I bought seaweed and short-necked clams the night before her birthday and decided to wake up at 5 to make her the soup.
My plan was this. She has 9 o'clock class on monday mornings, and I have 1 o'clock, but I was planning on going to the school library early that morning. So I was going to wake up at 5 to make her the soup, and wake her up by saying "Happy birthday~" and then going straight to school. But! When I woke up, it was 6:15. Thankfully, Sae-Ip hadn't waken up yet, so I got up quickly, washed my hair, and began to make the soup. But during the middle of boiling, she woke up! Thankfully (again), she did not took great care of what I was doing and headed straight to the bathroom to wash her hair. I was getting worried that I might not finish before she came out of the bathroom so my hands began to move fast. I finished making the soup and set up the table, and guess what! She came out of the bathroom just in time I was setting up the spoons. And she was very moved. She said thanks, and we ate breakfast together.
That night, my other roommate (I have three roommates) bought cake and we celebrated Sae-Ip's 20th birthday together.
Happy ending.
