logged in to facebook twice yesterday and once this morning. and all three times when i see the number of birthday well wishes i got on my wall, i admit that the first thing that came to my mind was a mixture of joy, surprise, and a tad of "what the hell i have to reply to so many people" kind of feeling
but i really appreciate all the smses, wall postings, msn wishes, face-to-face wishes, face-to-not-my-face etc (if i missed out any form of greeting, please feel free to tag and add in). from the 5 star chicken rice cum pool outing with the "consecutive birthday rv clique" on friday night to the gathering on saturday night with a whole bunch of people whom i didnt expect to turn up, i thoroughly enjoyed every single moment. though there were a few hiccups here and there like how someone got a black card but doesn't have a silver marker, how they wanted to eat at fish and co. for dinner when i already had fish and co. for lunch, how the cake (aka g spot) that came when i'm only halfway through my roasted chicked at the big O, and nobody knowing the cake had came cos the waiter just placed it beside me quietly (which i find quite dumb).
but nevertheless, it was great because i appreciated everyone's effort for doing (or at least trying to) watever they've done for me. even a simple "happy birthday" on my facebook wall (or a lakerol sweet from you know who you are), i believe, takes some effort and it's that thought that counts. that's what we always say but only recently have i really thought about what it meant. so really, to those who've made a difference to my day in one way or another, and more importantly, to those who've made a difference to any point on my 20 years on planet Earth, i thank you guys from the bottom of my heart.
shall not make any special mention here lest i miss out some people =p (everyone says i'm getting old anyway). but you guys know who you are.
yes you
it is you la
don't doubt yourself can?
("20 already, but still as lame as ever" is probably going through your mind right now)
