TikTok user in Singapore celebrates her birthday playing card games with foreign workers
Birthdays are a special day usually celebrated with friends or family. However, TikTok user @lovlyaphrodite took a different approach and celebrated her special day by having a picnic and playing Uno with foreign workers at the beach.
Documented on a TikTok video posted late at night on Sunday (2 Feb), the OP was first captured in a photo sitting on a picnic mat and holding a cake with the number “22” as its candles.
The in-video caption wrote: “When celebrating my birthday at the beach turned into playing Uno with the migrant workers.”

The video then showed the two men, seemingly foreign workers, sitting on the grass patch beside the picnic mat and playing Uno with the OP and her friend.

One user pointed out that they see the same foreign workers working on the construction of Jurong Region Line near their house, adding that many residents nearby would bring them things and chat with them.
Another user noticed that the workers were so polite that they did not even sit on the picnic mat but on the grass instead.
