What can I say about this year’s birthday celebration? So far it’s frustration more than anything else. I try not to let it get to me, but it’s tough when 3 people cancel at the last minute, 3 people late for almost an hour, and I was waiting with just my roommate and another friend for the whole time at the bar because the restaurant refuse to sit us and eventually give away our table~ Then the next night more people cancel, one even forgot to come~ If it’s a party then it’s fine people come late or not coming at all, but it’s all formal dinner where the reservation and restaurant staff always become a problem~~

Luckily I am easily satisfied once I was showered with well wishes from everywhere on the day of my birthday~ I got messages from everywhere, voicemail, text, Facebook, my blog, by the mail. It was overwhelmingly sweet. And with that everything else is forgotten~ And since my celebration hasn’t end yet, it will continue on throughout the week and after, I can only imagine it will get better and better, cos the worst is over~

So I am officially 29~ What a strange number it is~ 9 is always my number, and 29 is the date of my birthday, so I see it as more significant than the big 30~ Besides, the last of something (my twenties) is definitely more difficult to process than the beginning of something~ It’s like one day you wake up and time just hit you in the head~ What the hell did you actually accomplish in the last 9 years? That is the question that will linger for a while~
