The day I turned Twenty Three

I remember when I was young, birthday is always the lovely day to be waited every year because there would be cakes, presents and celebrations waiting for me. As I grow older, birthday no longer the day I looking forward to because it indicates another day of me growing older. Adding numbers toward my age is not feeling that good.

At the same time, you will start to notice who are your true friends that remember your big day, plan something sincerely or buying presents just to make you feel that you are the happiest girl on the day. Even a simple wish will do.... seriously. A simple call, a simple text or the willingness of sparing their time to wish or celebrate with me simple make me feel glad that I have them as a true friend.

On the other hand, I believe that birthday is not a celebration for myself. I rather treat it as a day to send my gratitude towards my mum who gave birth on me on this day 23 years ago. The pain she suffered to bring me to this world and I am here now standing healthily . All of this happen just because of her. Without her, I wouldn't be here celebrating with all my friends.

That is the reason why I have been trying my very best to take care of my sister on behalf of my mother. At the same time, I volunteered to celebrate Vesak Day or even organised for UNIBUDS because I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Buddha for giving me such a great mum. Mothers' Day, Vesak Day, My sis's Birthday and My birthday all happen in May. That is the reason why May is the best month of the year for me.

If you ask me what do you think about your 23's birthday? I would say that I was surprised. Seriously I was shocked with the surprise given. Thank you everyone who put in the effort in making it happens. :)

"Happy Birthday to myself, Wee Han, Justin and Kassie. All the 14th May Babies. I wish every single one of you had a lovely day yesterday."

P/S: I love you mummy! ^^

休息假期

日子一天一天过.转眼间，秋天又要来临了.公司的同事们又再安排假期的旅程.

突然听到电话的铃声，我便对同事说：“好像在飞机里的感觉.”

同事便问说：“你是不是很想旅行？”

她的问题让我想了一下.答不出.我说：“我也不知道...可能是吧？”

她又说：“那你学xxx(另外一个同事)啊...去墨尔本玩就好啦.”

我说：“不知道啊...看怎么样啦.”

不知不觉间，工作也快一年了.看着同事们轮流地去假期，旅游，休息;自己却还没有这样的机会.我只要一个休息假期.四月太久了啦...

P/S: 新年快乐=)

Twenty Eleven

I can't believe my last post was dated back in September 2010. Under the "edit posts" column, a number of unpublished post is sitting underneath. Why are they not published? Because they are just not supposed to be published. :P As someone told me before, blog is a public platform where everyone can access easily. So, please be aware of your posts. I would then ask myself... then what is the purpose of blogging? Maybe I should change back to write my diary. =)

So what have I been doing since the last Autumn? A lot of things... On the 31st December 2010, I went to countdown with a bunch of friends in North Sydney. It was my first experience taking a train across Sydney Harbour Bridge. *ok... I know it's epic failure* Besides, it was my first experience counting down in Sydney too. That day was really unforgettable. I saw a smile on everyone's face. =) I told myself that I will want to count down again in the coming year for sure - In Sydney.

How about Chinese New Year? I feel like Christmas eve instead, the whole night was so silence. Although there seems to have a lot of celebration in China town, the atmosphere is still can't beat Malaysia's. Again, my first Chinese New Year in Sydney this year. I feel that Christmas is more happening that CNY in Sydney. And I am missing home now.

I had my first Christmas, New Year and Chines New Year in Sydney... all in one goal. What's next? Valentines' Day? lol Anyway, Happy Chinese New Year everyone! Gong Xi Fat Chai! Everyone huat dua chai! =D

P/S: And F*fu Joe is back in Penang. I wish her has a new journey ahead in coming year. All the best to her and everyone. One day, I will pack my bag to somewhere else too. =)
