Happy Birthday to me. Yay.

I’m finally 30 … odd, I still feel the same except that I get a little tired after 12am nowadays. It’s been a long day and I’m feeling tired, but felt compel to write about it before it becomes stale and I get demotivated writing.

Yee See has been really sweet trying to get people together for this. I know she’s been trying really hard with the very very little contact she has with my ‘friends’. And I appreciate the effort she puts into these things.

She gave me 2 hard boiled eggs this morning. Ok, this might be a custom for most families but this was really a first for me … something that we don’t practice in our family. Culture shock haha. What an odd practice :)

After service we had lunch with my family and my brother foot the bill. That was really nice of him (ahem, being the more financially stable person in the family). I owe him a birthday meal now. Lunch was great; we had it in Dynasty Restaurant located at Summit itself. Uh … can’t remember what we ate except for Dim Sum and crab. Yeah, crab in the afternoon.

We went to catch a movie at Tropicana City Mall, first time there. The mall is pretty new but kinda small compared to the other shopping malls around. I’ll probably drop by there once in a while. Yee See made a dinner reservation for 8 people at My Elephant. Only 2 came, haha. Suddenly everyone couldn’t make it. Oh, this IS a birthday to remember. It’s ok, everyone had their own reasons. I’m not a celebrity anyways, just a 30 year old man *shrugs*

I have many things to be thankful for, so I choose to give thanks to God. Despite everything, He is still good. I had already made plans last year on how I wanted to celebrate this year’s birthday. I guess a lot of things were flung out the window because of my financial situation. We haven’t received our payments yet. Most people think birthdays are only a day that’s all about YOU. I had wanted at least this year to be slightly different. I wanted to bless those that I consider friends; guess there will be another year.

Yay. Happy Birthday to me.
