Almost a 1/4 of a century old

Today I feel almost 90% refueled from this past weekend... which was my 24th birthday. Usually people celebrate this yearly event one day a year, but for somehow mine turned into almost a week.. (well this is a lie... senior year college it was like a week and a half)

Started off with Last Tuesday (Thom's countdown.. also known to some people as Valentine's Day)- We gathered a troop of 20 or so and dominated Pub Quiz.. but domination I mean we can in first if the order was reversed.. no big deal

WEdnesday was Bowling Day for Thom.. and welcoming back ASHER!!.. too bad he's leaving for good soon.. :'(

THursday... Rest day... decided to play dress up with my roommate.. but little did I know that at exactly 12am.. Ting, Luika and Amy came running in with 6 bottles of Champagne (thanks to MC and SW too) and a HUGE teddy bear <3.. it was my first real surprise and i secretly teared.. but i dont think they noticed :-P

Friday... no comment.. epic night.. THanks to my lovely minions aka bffs... All the time spend organizing this event was worth it. Although half of the night I dont remember, it was overall amazing....
- reuniting with old friends
- closure
- Happy moments
- <3

I can never say it enough, but I'm extremely blessed with all the amazing people in my life... I feel like I don't deserve all of this.

extra stress

You know when you like a song a lot, and then it starts playing everywhere and everyone starts liking it. Then you dislike it because the mass started to like it. Why can't everyone like something at the same time? What's the point of being different in something that's not that significant
Even more important than the warmth and affection we receive, is the warmth and affection we give. It is by giving warmth and affection, by having a genuine sense of concern for others, in other words through compassion, that we gain the conditions for genuine happiness. More important than being loved, therefore, is to love.
