March 3rd _official 25th birthday

The weather turned bad since this evening. According to weather forecast, winter storm warning remain in effect until next morning. It's still snowing outside and will continue with occasional sleet. Snow accumulations of 3 to 7 inches can be expected... It's sound like time to go for ski!!!

It's now 11:52pm. I log in to blogger to start writing my new post. You may or may not know, March 3rd, probably just an uneventful day for others, but it comes to me a very special day that usually gives me lots of sweet memories. Well... What the big deal on March? No... no!! It's a big deal!! It's my official birthday!! My officially turning into 25th... If the life expectancy is 100 years old, I already traveled a quarter of my life... Kind of hard to believe it's true

Well, what did I do on my 25th birthday? Actually, I was pretty busy on my birthday as I have a crazy schedule on Monday. My birthday was filled with schools and works. I drove back and forth to schools and works that day. This is how I celebrate my birthday!! When I was on the way home, I was thinking how could be my birthday end up like only schools and works. So I decided to call my friends to hang out that night. It was Monday and everyone was busy on their works and schools. I can't even find a friends to celebrate with. Most of my friends thought I would have lots fun during my birthday. Indeed, you were wrong!! I was alone this year!! It's sound pretty sad, right!! It was sad...

I was listening to a song by Lee Horn named "You're not here"(Chinese song) when I was on the way home from work. That song reminds me of her in Malaysia. She is my beloved. She came into my life since 2003 and we have been together for awhile. I miss her so much. That song reminds me again of her. "You're not here when I need you so much.".... I was alone and you were not here... Sin, I miss you so much...

I hate to be alone sometimes, especially during special event. I always love crowd!! Maybe I used to surrounded by a group of friends or my siblings. So I decided to do something for my 25th birthday. I always believe that you can do something to change the situation if you are not satisfy with. And I gonna do it.... I decided to get myself a birthday cake... Tiramisu... I went to Hiller's market which located less than two miles from our place. I spent couple bucks for my cake and grocery shopping. What do you think?? Yeah... you're right!! Celebrate by myself... Since no one to celebrate with...

I bought a cake and went home to share with my family... They don't even know my birthday!! I felt sad, I guess you can tell how I felt that day when no one remembered my birthday and I ended up went to buy a birthday cake for myself. It's sound sad, right?!! It was sad!! But now I learned to get used to it... I was glad some of friends and my family in Malaysia still remember my birthday. Thanks for your birthday's greeting message.

When I backed from work, I saw a package notice on my desk. It was a package notice from United States Postal Service. I was stunned by a sudden news. It was from Malaysia, the sender was Sin. It was a package from Sin!! I was so excited and felt warm at that moment. I missed the package so I need to pick up next morning. Sin, thank you so much although I'm still don't know what is in the package, but thanks in advance... Love you!!

其实包裹里是什么哪一不重要了,重要的是你的心意。 而你的心意我已经感觉到了. 在这冰冷的世界里我被大家给遗忘了,但至少还有你... 而你为我这冰冷的世界带来了温度...

"这世界可以很大,但也可以只有两个人..."
"两个人的世界会比一个人的世界得来的温暖,因为温度会相互转递; 两个人的世界会比一个人的是世界快乐,因为快乐只要对方的一个笑容. " -- 2008--

The above quotes exactly delineate my feeling now. The world could be boundless and could be only two people in the world. My world is cold here and filled with loneliness. Now, I know I am wrong!! Because you are with me all the time, even you're not here!! No one cares about it, but you do!!! I can feel it... Thanks!!

Here are some pictures that Kostas took on my birthday!! Here it goes...

Package notice from USPS... I was stunned when I saw it on my desk. The sender was SIN...

Here is my birthday cake from MYSELF... It's sound sad, right!! It is sad!! As you can tell from the picture below, it was Tiramisu cake, same as last year. I love it that's why I bought the same cake again. Last year the cake was from Simon and Maggie, but this year I paid for myself...

I bought a cake and had celebration at home with my family...
After having our dinner, we started to have a small birthday celebration. Thanks Kostas for taking the picture.

We had the celebration in our kitchen... just forget about the Chinese couplet behind me!! I don't know why the couplet was still there.

We set up a self timer for the camera, so we can take a family picture together. As compare with last year, this year was quite, as we missed Simon and Maggie in Michigan.

Make a wish... and blow the candle...



Sophia was waiting for her Tiramisu...



Kostas took this picture when I was going to have my first bite of my Tiramisu

Kostas, Lee and Sophia...
Even though it was not a superb birthday celebration, at least I had a birthday cake, blow the candle and make a wish. It was not too bad. Plus, I received lots of greeting message from Malaysia's friends and a package from HooiSin. What else can I expect for?!! I should learn to say "enough"...

Birthday Wish 1
Foremost lots of health... Wishing all my friends and family stay in tune and healthy... Simply because without health we got nothing!! Family stay peace and harmony!!

Birthday Wish 2
Study & Career... I wish I could further my master program and graduate on time. Also, I wish I could start my professional career path by the time I finish my master program.

Birthday Wish 3
Keep it for myself... hint: Someone... You may know or may not...

Alright, that's all for now. I will keep myself update. If you like to know what is my package please be patient for my next post... :>
