23rd Birthday

My 23rd birthday is over, nothing much has happened in this year, especially when I compared with the past few years. This year, there isn’t even any birthday song. Luckily, I still received blessing and presents from a lot of my friends. Thank you everyone for your wishes and blessings. I truly appreciate it.

Thank you Voon Yin for your Japanese Dictionary, although I have stop learning it, I am sure that I will pick it up again one day. Thank you Carmen and Phuah for the body make up, although I am still not sure when to use it, I am definitely find a chance to use it one day. Thank you Say How for your Bear Handphone Hanger. Also, thank you Bao Bei for the wonderful seafood dinner and the self-made light.

The trip to Penang was fun. I have eaten a lot of good food. I ate so much that now I am feeling that I have put on a lot of weight. We went to a few places, such as the Fishermen Village, the beach, Gurney Drive, and of course not forgetting the DVD shopping at Batu Ferringgi.

It is really so fun to be able to spend time with your friends, especially when most of us have not meet up for so long, to be able sit down and spend time like this has already became a luxury among us. Since we graduated, everybody has own life and has followed different path of life. Voon Yin is now studying in Tanjung Malim and working towards teaching career. Jenn is studying her Master in Communications and juggling a few jobs at the same time. Jo has gone back to Penang and will be going off to UK for her Master next year. Such opportunities to gather together are getting lesser and lesser.

However, I must say that I am quite disappointed during this trip. When I depart, I took it as my birthday trip, a birthday trip that my best friends organized and gave to me. I didn’t want them to sponsor the trip, I know it is impossible. All I want is just a small birthday celebration with just a birthday song and maybe a small cake, which I didn’t get it all.

For the past few years, since we know each other, we have been spending each other birthday together. This is the first time that we are so far apart. Maybe when you grow older, birthday is no longer important, as it reminds you that you are growing older and older. Maybe a lot of girls hate birthday, but I am definitely not one of them. To me, birthday is a day that you are born. I always love friends’ birthday, because I am really thankful that they are born. Thanks their parents who gave them the life, so that I can know them now and enjoy every single moments with them.
