Happy 20-something to me!

Happy 20-something birthday to me! :)

From this day on, I have officially join the "20something" club and my age's a secret. On hindsight, I wonder what I've accomplished in the past 20-something years of my life.

Well, just last year, I finally own a dog whom I love lots.
The same year, i.e. 2006, I started Little Red Heels with Xiang.
3 years ago, I got into a university that I so want to get out of now.
5 years ago, I got to know a bunch of really cool classmates at AJ.
7 years ago, I got into a relationship which is still going strong now.
9 years ago, I pledged a lifelong friendship to my very much loved UG.

And of course, my family and those who love me and whom I didn't love back enough for my past 20something years.

Now that doesn't seem so bad. My biggest accomplishment is growing into the kind of person I am today. (So it is just too bad if you don't like me.)

Let's do something interactive here. Heh. I don't know if much people reads this blog anymore but it will really be nice if you leave a comment stating one or more adjectives describing me, in YOUR opinion. (Leave leh, treat it as my lil birthday, erm, present, you stingy face. Heh, I am joking la, I love youuu.)

My birthday wish this year isn't any different from all others. It's my birthday resolution that has a larger significance. Here's it.


This is a pictorial representation of my life as how I see it.

And this is what I hope for before 2008 arrives.

See, it doesn't have to be a perfect fit. But at least to pack things up, to feel a lot more in control and to know exactly what I want.

Heh. I must be experiencing some form of one-fifth life crisis. *smile*

Anyhow, birthday is boring this year 'cause I am stuck with two freaking essays which is due immediately after term break. (This means I shouldn't be blogging now really, nor launching a new series on LRH that needs much attending to.)

I spent the first hours of my birthday playing mahjong at Collin's house, with Hongchoo and Sooting. Heh. That's my first chocolate truffles cake of the day (from Secret Recipe).


Slept in till about 3pm (*goodness). Then had my 2nd round of chocolate truffles cake (from The Royal) with my sis and Jaime.

Lastly, following the rhythm of the entire day, we had Subway for dinner. Collin got me a denim jacket from Buffalo which is too big so we'll probably need to go back and exchange for something else. Thanks anyhow, darling.

Pardon me for looking very out-of-bed in all the pictures above. I told you it's a very boring birthday. No dressing up or whatsoever.

So that's it. Happy 20something to me. *bored out*

P.S. My phone has been sent to the repair. So pardon me if I didn't reply your very sweeeeet and kind smses 'cause I am kinda phoneless at the moment. It's really nice to be remembered anyhow. Thank you thank you thank you. Loads of love. :)

you are fun, bubbly, cheerful, bright, sweet, pretty, loyal, creative, innovative, and always there for me! (that makes many adjectives! heh.) but these are only superficial descriptions, nothing means more than your presence in UG, happy birthday sweets! :)

you guys are such darlings! I meant it! I thought no one really bothers about that. heh.

to qi:
you are always our Little Miss Nice! someone truthful (even when the truth hurts), unpretentious (lots of props for this!) and sweeeet. I don't think I can ever survive without each and everyone of you in UG. :)

to cheryl:
thank you babeee!! sorry about the MIA-ness. I got my phone back finally! my memory is comparable to that of Dory but i always remember you as the very very sweet one. and i haven't said it but i really appreciate that you made the last primary sch gathering possible! :)

to mei:
i don't think there can be anyone as thoughtful as you. pretty no doubt, sweet and beyond it all, i am really glad we are meant to share this special connection. i feel guilt most of the time for not spending enough time with you guys but i know you guys will always be there and i have my whole life to make it up to you all! :)

-----------

by now, i realise all of you guys are very sweet. maybe thats the reason why you will leave me a comment. heh. i am on a sugar overdose but it totally made my day! :)
