Birthdays don't seem special to me anymore.I used to look forward for my birthday every year but as time pass, the "look forward to birthday" mood dies.
To me, birthdays are like any other normal days. You lead a normal life, do what you normally do. It's not as big or special as before.
I can't believe I'm officially 23. (wow! Really?) and 23 sounds so old to me.
When I was in my younger days, I used to think that receiving presents from your friends are the most important thing during birthdays. But, as one gets older, I realised that apart from receiving presents from friends, receiving a short simple sweet SMS will actually make one feel contented.
I don't know about the people around me. But for me, I am glad that there are actually people out there who remembers my birthday. And seriously, that is good enough! It shows that I'm someone they did not forget.
It's true, when one gets older, birthdays are not that special anymore.
Thanks to those who sent me sms, wrote on my facebook wall, sent me a testimonial on friendster wishing me happy birthday!
Not forgetting my mum and step-sis calling all the way from India, my sis and bro-in-law, all the way from Taiwan and my uncle + aunt who came in to my room at 12am with a birthday cake, followed by a birthday song.
I'm glad that you people remembered. :)
My birthday this year was all planned by my friends.
I was told by E and F to keep myself free on my birthday itself. I had zero clues on what's going on. And so, after commercial law lecture on Friday, we headed down to the Grand Cathay for dinner together with Serena and her friend; Chloe.
Ivan, Jackson, Jeane and Kenny came soon after.
They brought me to this Japanese restaurant which serves delicious sushi at 99CENTS per plate!!!! We ate till our tummy almost went bonkers.
Then, out a sudden, the boys came in with a chocolate cake.
Thank you so much Fyonne darling for planning the dinner. :)
Terence called and he too came in to the restaurant to join in the fun!
The guys left us for their own plans. The girls went to meet Bee and Cher after dinner. What's so great about AVB? Why is everyone queue-ing to see him?
I think only people who appreciate trance will love him.
Okie, so, anyways, the next plan that the girls planned for me was Phuture!
And I'm touched when they say they wouldn't mind splurging on the entrance because it was my birthday.
It is friends like them that made me feel like I'm on top of the world! :)
Couldn't wake up for law lesson the next day because my head was spinning around.
JefferyThen said I told everyone that we MUST wake up and attend class but when we're on the way home, I told everyone to skip lesson. I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER ME SAYING ALL THOSE LA!
Met bestfriend in town. She told me to keep myself free on the 10th and like the previous day, I had ZERO IDEAS on what was going on.
All I know was we are supposed to meet and have dinner together.
As we entered Paragon Spagaddies, I got a shocked! There were three men in black sitting at the restaurant waiting for us.
It was a surprise birthday dinner planned by DawnTan! Thank you soooo much bestfriend!
Man, come to think of it, I've known this girl here for a decade already.
Walked down to Heeren and shuling surprised me with a birthday cake!!
Thank you so much babe for rushing down after your exam! :)
What more can I ask for? I'm truly blessed with wonderful friends and of cos family.
