A Note Of Thanks.

[ personal ramblings ]




It's been a real hard week.
Many ups and downs.
Most of all, its the downs.



But in every down, the comfort lies in the word of God
He never fails to speak to me at the right time.




Just to speak, i love celebrating other people's birthdays.
But i just hate my own. All through these recent years..
almost every birthday i had is an unhappy one.



It just hurts to celebrate my birthday. Sometimes, i wished that no one bothered me on the 8th October. Don't bother to send me sms greetings. Cards.. Gifts. watsoever.


It's not that i don't appreciate it. But i feel it's meaningless.
I have lost the joy in celebrating my own birthday.


Often enough, it would be the day that everyone forgets that it's my birthday.
How well we would be using this time, to study thru our exams.


Then having said all that is above, i have found myself into this dilemma
I would be disappointed if people did not wished me Happy Birthday.


Werid isn't it ?



I am just another weird guy.





Well i've shared this wuth mom and 1 of my close friend. What exactly happen on my birthday.
It's a pretty sad day you know.. Like you know those crying soap operas. boo hoo hoo and stuffs.




Well i am sorry if i looked sad that day. I tried my best not to dampen the mood.. and the effort to put in to celebrate my birthday. But i was really not doing good that day.



Dun worry. I'm better now.






Just wanna pay a tribute to those who have blessed me yesterday.

Thanks Mom for the book and thought behind it.

Vivian

This is the first time i received a Figurine gift.
I love figurines since i am a kid. But collecting figurines is an expensive hobby. I simply do not have the cash to keep up with it. I also do not have enought spcae to keep them

But men, this is my first ever figurine. And it's a Kakashi Figurine! My favourite Naruto Character!
Well another cool thing is... she doesn't know its my birthday. But yet she bought it long from Hong Kong and presented this gift to me timely on my birthday. I din tell her in the end.
Anyway Thanks Vivian. :)

Xiu Wen the Pandy

Wow, how she make it so colourful??
It's very very nice! Sparkly and chirpy.
And the words behind pretty touched me.
Thanks Pandy.





Card from NSSC

Well, i know everyone in NSSC would receive a card too on their bday.
But i think it's a nice gesture by them. Even though our head can be pretty hard on us..
I think it's a blessing for the Heads to bless each one of us with such a great card.
Thanks NSSC

This is the first. I've not received before any cards from the Community Chest at all.
Thanks Community Chest anyways :D ha..
