Happy birthday Eileen!

First of all, would like to wish dear sweetie eileen happy 22nd birthday. ;) can't celebrate with her on the actual day since most of us are undergoing a very stressful period of our lives(right now) known as the E.X.A.Ms. but hey, our thoughts are with you! so really hope that u'll spend this great day with your loved ones (other than us) and thoroughly enjoy urself man. You deserve it! Hugs.

birthdays are such wonderful days. As a young kid, i always love birthdays, be it mine or my friends. Coz i remember during kindergarten, whenever someone has a birthday, it will be declared a free day for the class. Back then, the class was small, the teachers were damn nice, we children just waste the day playing with toys, colouring, fighting with the boys and eating. And there will be a Birthday celebration! the highlight of the day.

I remember when it comes to my birthday, my mum would buy a birthday cake and come to class and all my classmates will gather around the table and sing my happy birthday song. I think in my second year in kindergarten, this boy across the table was picking his nose (obviously not singing birthday song to me), another boy wanted to reach the cake and eat the sugary decorative figures, another boy was looking damn intently at the cake and i suspect he was drooling. Well, the rest(girls) were singing happily. AND this guy sitting beside me blew my candles for me when the song ended and i was so upset that i cried. My brother would be ard too... sweeet.

Then comes primary sch...hated to celebrate birthdays. Classmates would play all sorts of nasty tricks on me. They were such naughty boys then. Family still celebrated birthdays together.

come secondary sch...mixture of love and hate for birthdays. family hardly celebrates anymore. though sch friends were always eager to. eager to smash your face into the cake as well. (what a waste) :) and i think for most of my birthdays, i was really happy. But the days following that were unhappy ones.. and i was beginning to think of it as the birthday curse. that u'll only feel wonderful on your birthday and that's it.

Now, birthdays are special occasions to celebrate. celebrate life. celebrate kinship, friendship. celebrate with people who cares. celebrate with people you love and who loves you.

It's such a special day.

So let's celebrate!

Happy birthday eileen!
