I woke up at 12:00PM and have been thinking a while, what kind of present I want to give to Caroline. Flowers? OK… If flowers then I should meet up with Ellie Han afterward. Ellie is Marketing Manager of the florist (that actually opened for business on Sunday) Experience have told me that it is not easy to find a florist that open for business on Sunday, so Ellie Han florist shop is the best choice for me.

I drove from Wangsa Maju to Damansara Utama to meet Ellie at her florist shop and told her that I want to buy some flowers but with 1 condition, that is she need to call Caroline at her office to see if she is working today or she is off. The reason I ask Ellie to call is because I don’t want Caroline to know that it is me who calling as I want to give her a surprise visit with the flowers!

I told Ellie that there is no point to buy the flowers today if Caroline is off day and she happily help me to make that call. Well…. Caroline is off today and she will be off on Monday too! She will be back to work again on Tuesday. So no surprise present for her today as I can’t deliver it to her office. Ellie suggested I deliver it to her on Tuesday. I asked Ellie (as a lady herself) what a lady will think if she receive a belated birthday present? Ellie said since Caroline is taking off from work for 2 days which mean she really go to celebrate her birthday. When she come back she will still have the happy mood and there is no reason not happy to receive any present.

As I have not yet make up my mind, I told Ellie that I will call her if I need anything. She hand me a booklet and I left the place. Anyway, I like to thank Ellie for that. A very simple call yet Ellie have gave her best service & advised.
