happy birthday.

"last day of being a teen" haha i feel so old now.

i realised how when one grows older, the novelty of a birthday celebration also diminishes, and i've come to accept it. it was a simple birthday - no cake, no song, no surprises, no wishes, no special event, but one with much love. not many remembered, but i guess it's not something that i should be upset about. there wasn't the usual anticipation, the usual excitement, the usual suspense, it's probably only school life that will tend to make such special days even more special. now that we've all graduated, it's nv good to expect too much i suppose.

it was a normal boring day. had wanted to take half-day to rest, but was scolded for it. so i just waited for dinner to come. dinner was spent with jun at sakae.=) we sat there from 7 to around 10pm, and just kept talking. ate till we were so full! but thank you jun for the wondeful wonderful [sorry for the lack of a better word] present! love the photos, the memories, and most of all, the bond and friendship we share. all the special days are spent with you!=D and i forgot to tell you! i still have your rose! 6 days.=P shall post some pictures after jun send them to me.

it wasn't the most happening, exciting, surprising, happy birthday in my life - probably one of the simplest ever - but the night was good, cos of great company. thanks also to the following people: kang, joshua, jess, pong, tubby, boon, ja, cherry, cynli, senthil, charles, amy, jocelyn, jian rong, mingjie, cai, xiu wen, denise, xin cai, mel, christie & junghans for remembering 21st feb. and of cos my family. to nadjad, christie & charles, HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY! now's your turn.=D

i'm currently still suffering from a sleep debt. throughout the whole day i was feeling SUPER sleepy. dampened my bday spirits. but ah well. shall try hard to remember i'm 19 now. [somehow that fact hasn't sunk in yet.]

some quiz that i did. surprisingly, some of the things they said are damn true. i was even telling jun some of those just now. woah.

How You Approach Life and How You Appear To Others:
You are a natural diplomat, reasonable, tolerant, fair, always willing to listen to varying viewpoints, and ready to see the other side of an issue. Even if you strongly disagree with someone, you will try to find points of similarity and agreement rather than emphasizing the differences. You often avoid taking an extreme or one-sided stance on anything. You have a strong desire for harmonious and pleasant relationships, and express a spirit of cooperation, compromise, friendship, and fairness. You very much want to be liked and because of your need for approval and acceptance, you are easily influenced by others' opinions, especially when young. You so much want to please that often you will suppress your own intense or unpleasant feelings in order not to offend others. Sometimes your politeness is interpreted as phoniness or wishy-washiness.

The Inner You: Your Real Motivation
At heart you are very gentle, impressionable, and receptive -a dreamer. The world of your imagination, feelings, and intuition is as real to you as anything in the outer world, though you may have trouble verbalizing or interpreting your inner experiences in a way others can understand. Mystical, artistic, musical, emotional and imaginative, you have a rich inner life, though you may seem rather unobtrusive and quiet outwardly. You usually keep to yourself.

i can't believe how true some of these quizzes are.
