i'm officially a quarter year old tomorrow (if there's such a term)
coincidentally, as i was coming back from another dinner just now, i was stuck in a traffic jam right in front of the hospital i was born in. and i was thinking, 'OH! deja vu!' i was born here exactly 25 years ago .... how poignant.
haha anyway, since so many people talk about what they've done for the year, i was thinking, while my birthday is technically about me, it's also about so many other people.
i've been a daugthter to two great, although can be annoying, parents for 25 years.
i've been a sister to a great guy for 23 years.
i've been a sister to a budding and sometimes irritating girl for 21 years.
my parents have been married for at least 26 years.
i've been a malaysian for 25 years and hopefully, have contributed in some ways.
i've been a friend to many, regardless of time.
i've been a lover, a shoulder to cry on, a hand to hold, a person to hug.
i've been a child, exploring and experimenting.
i've been a girl, searching and seeking.
and now ....
the journey of life continues as another quarter begins.
goodbye 25, hello 25

A very happy birthday to you, Grace!
Let me add to your list:
You have been the test subject in string-tying-medical experiment.
That is one that not all of us can put on our lists!
Have a blessed day today!
Not that you want to know this, but today is also exactly 2050 years since Marc Antony and Octavian (wretches) defeated noble Brutus. Yep, 2050 years ago today real people were slaughtering eachother just so William Shakespeare would have a tragic final act for his play Julius Caesar.
So, to Brutus' noble past and your noble future!
