I need a wake up call, knock some sense into me.

a big happy 21st to manrong :)
8 years of friendship and still counting!

happy birthday to qiqi as well !
was unable to go over to east coast because i'm working ):

reached chevrons at around evening yesterday. Y picked me up just to drive me over. thank you. you know me too well, to answer my every doubts and uncertainties. totally made my day with your advices and everything. thank you again my dearest friend. and liao was already there and grumbling like an old man haha !

bbq savoring and cutting of cake. then mahjong til midnight and back home.

it all came to me that you do not need to have many friends who are there. you just need a few true friends that's enough; that will apply to my 21st as well! renting a yacht out is a dream to come true, but it also means cashing out a sum of money. don't know what i want either. perhaps just sucuumb to reality for the time being till i got older. i can't possibly take a lump sum out(which is meant for future business plans) for entertainment like that. sigh. no using of parents money for sure, that's my principle.

nights like this one make me swell with so much sappiness and happiness, and all things jolly merry and good. i like talking to good old friends, they break the barrier between time and distance and all of a sudden i'm being transported into an entirely new world, one where the past and present intertwine. i want to talk hours and hours non-stop with people whom i remember so well, as if their faces are carved into the walls of my heart. so much has changed, yet a lot still hasn't.

having a headache when i'm on my way back, don't know why either.
slept early; like 2am.

not sure whether i'll be heading out later.
let's see.
