My 19th Birthday
Okay, 2 days had gone and it's time to give that tiny sentimental person running inside me a break :)
This year, I went ahead and hid my birth date from my timeline. I dunno what made me did that actually >.< Somehow, just the thought of seeing lots of birthday wishes scribbled over my timeline makes me go "Ughhh". Woookkaayy I admit, I'm weird(And proud of it! LOL)
I guess that in today's technologically cushioned world, sentimental people like me who'd rather have a letter delivered right up to the doorstep rather then e-mails, who'd rather have a face-to-face chat instead of chatting through facebook, and who'd rather people remember birthdays by memorizing painfully despite having Alzheimer's disease instead of reminders from facebook...... are slowly dying out HA-HA =.=
My 19th birthday, was a unique one (;
Due to the fact that I'd hidden my birth date from facebook, somehow, each SMS, each phone call, each birthday wishes specifically inbox-ed in private meant so much. Serious. How do I describe it?? It was like, each and every wishes are so filled with love, sweetness and sincerity. People remembered because they remember, because they care. I actually felt like, "Aww! I am so so loved by the people around me! *teary eyes*"

Wanna see what my close buddies here got me? *wink*
Yeah, despite telling them that I don't really care about presents and that it's not important and all.........Taadaaa! They got me a photo album, and not just any photo album, but an album of memories, photos of friends from semester 1 till now. Really sentimental right? Say, I was touched. Really and truly. For me, birthdays aren't always about presents and birthday cakes. I always had this weird mind-set in mind, and ever since I stepped into IPG, this weird thought just grew stronger. Like in here where I'm studying, each and every time, whenever a classmate's birthday draws near, people would walk into any gift shop, select a nice present and, there, present. I mean, what's the whole point, in giving just for the sake of giving? (>.<!) True, I will still buy gifts for people on their birthdays, but when it comes to my birthday, somehow, just thinking about the whole thing makes the birthdays-should-have-presents-and-cakes thingy, well, meaningless.... (No offence >.<!)

你们的礼物,
比世界上最昂贵的礼物还要昂贵,
因为它的价值,不是在价钱,
而是在那满满的真心里面;
那一张张的照片,
一张张亲笔写上的感言。
P/s: 我的华语很好有没有!! :P

Dear all, from the bottom of my heart, thank you, for everything... ^^V And if you'd read the above, it's not that I don't appreciate your presents. I do appreciate it (: It's just that, in the future, you guys don't have to crack your heads to think of what kind of presents to buy. After all, it's the sincerity that counts ^^ Write me a poem or a short essay ba, if you insist! :P
