♥ 21st with love!
I had an awesome 21st. (: Thank you to everyone who bothered to SMS, whatsapp, tweet, FB message, or post something on my FB wall. As well as those face-to-face well wishes, and all those who took time off for a simple meal with me. My 21st was not exceptionally grand and special, but I like it this way - simple yet heartwarming. (:
Of all those who wished me, I think certain people deserve special mentions:
1) Especially touched by Ms Khoo, who never fails to wish me Happy Birthday each year. How many teachers would take the effort to remember your birthday?
2) And then Gwen Hwarng, who spam my whatsapp hahah. How many friends who are overseas bother to remember your birthday?
3) Of course then, I couldn't forget dear fated friend Lilin who sent me a postcard from France from 3rd September but only managed to reach me on 13th September, and same neighbourhood friend Juehong for whatsapp-ing me photo of her chicken!
4) Dear friend Xiaojun, who I haven't seen for ages, but always send me a heartwarming FB message/email everytime during my birthday. In fact, once in a while, I get a random message and it brightens up my day! It's always a good catch-up and it feels good to know that someone remembers you far away in Scotland!
5) And last but not least, those who remembered my birthday by heart, because I know you all don't go onto FB frequently.
Of course, everyone else too. (:
And to those groups of friends who will be celebrating my birthdays later, thank you too! (: I really appreciate everyone's effort to get together to celebrate for me even though it may be 2/3 weeks belated already.
I never regret a bit (at least up till now) that I did not hold a birthday party. I am glad to celebrate in small groups with people whom I really treasure. (: Happy birthday Lizhu! You are finally 21 hahah :D
