So I was born 21 years ago..

A day before, until 2-3 hours before my birthday, some naughty people (you know who you are!!!) kept teasing me about me, going to be a so-called.. a... err..no way I'm still YOUNG. And I felt so powerlesssss I couldn't stop the time.... 

What I was doing in 12a.m was doing my portfolio. It's 3 days to assessment and thanks God, I don't know why but I was very very very excited and recharged doing all the stuff :) I got the excitement (like the one in foundation year) back! Felt like working non stop yaaay, do it for the glory of God! 

Regina was the first one to call..and Reg if you're reading this, when you called I cried a little. I'm 21.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But thanks to God, and regina, and nini, and nduk, and nenek, and everybody for the 'video' and the empowering words & wishes that made me feel so much better on my first hours of being 21. Hahahaha.  

Sengkyu yah this is cute and very entertaining..

Yah me and the kid were supposed to print my vinyl record cover in the afternoon, (----the kid said I always need to print something on my birthdays. yes that's because my birthday's always near to assessment day---). The printing shop was closed and would be opened again at 6 p.m! Whaaat we're carrying those A1 papers!!!

So we decided to put the papers in Nenek's place (who lives 'above' the printing shops hahaha) and went for lunch. We planned to eat in Suntec's Astons but apparently the bus didn't stop in the usual place because of the APEC conference, instead of wasting time (hungryyyy) to find the way to Suntec, we decided to have lunch in Flyer's Popeye's. 

My birthday lunch. Yummmmmyyyyy. 

Then we went home to finish everything we could before going back to the printing shop at 6. 

And we took the wrong bus. Sorry nduk. My bad. 

The plan was : Me, taking a bus that stops in the kid's bus stop. 

   And the kid would get into that bus.

   So we'd go to the printing shop with the same bus. 

Hmm, 123 stops in the kid's, so I took it.

Then the kid got into the bus.

Then we did some hahaha-hihihi as usual. 

I FORGOT 123 DOESN'T GO TO THE PRINTING SHOPPPP. 

* * * 

As soon as we learned we're taking the wrong bus, we alighted, then crossed the road (a bit of running and a lot of HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAing) to the bus stop that would take us to the printing shop, hopefully on time.  It was somehow, fun, and funny. 

Errmm...(finding excuses) at least the scenery's not bad huh? And I found a church that I don't know why I found it oh so nice I wanna get married a.s.a.p! Hahahaha. 

Then we got to the printing shop safely and thanks God, on time. The kid suddenly wanted to eat in Tanglin Mall, but put the papers in my place first (ahaha seriously very convincing, nduk!). We went to my place with nenek and the kid, and put the stuff in my severely messy bedroom. Yanika was sleeping when we arrived, she got out to go to toilet and returned with a cake. They successfully bluffed me. 

No, the cake wasn't from the toilet of course..

Thanks gurlsss for the surprise and all the efforts to do this in the midst of homeworks and upcoming assessment please blame the school okay.

Then we went to cine to eat in es teler77 hehe. 

They've put the Christmas lights along the road already, the beauty (and the traffic jam) made me stop and reflect, of how good God has been and will always be to me. And how manjaaaa I was for being sad and ungrateful about growing older. 

God has made my life perfect. Why should I complain and cry? I should rejoice and praise Him for what He's done for me!

Thank You God for being my kind and fun best friend, 

for listening to all my curhats..

for answering all my prayers, 

and for surprising me with Your miraculous ways of doing it.

for healing my heart from all the pains. 

for always being a good company, I'm never alone.  

for strengthening me when I'm weak,

for always forgiving me although I hurt You so many times. 

for Your everlasting love that never changes

for being my e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g these 21 years, 

and even forever more..

And thank you friends, you made my day!!!

 I am he, I am he who will sustain you. 

 I have made you and I will carry you; 

I will sustain you and I will rescue you.
