It's official, I'm 23 =/

I know many people take birthdays as a very special date for them. Well, it is! It's the only official day of every year that belongs specially to you. But to me, it's just not as important. So pardon me if i didn't wish you happy birthday. Sometimes i do remember! but it only came across my mind the day before your birthday and the day after, just not on your exact date =)

So instead of asking for presents (i never received anything decent before anyways), I would write a tribute for people who meant something to me. I'll try to make it brief cause got a lot ah.

For my family - I don't speak to them a lot, neither do I know the exact details of their personal life (hell! i realised i don't know any of my sibling's friend!) But I love them. It isn't easy maintaining a family and I really respect how my parents did so. They had me when they were like 24-25? I'm 23 and I can barely see myself getting married.

XMS Group! The usual people la. Tho we each have our own very major flaws. (Ben ego, ly troublesomeness, cx wierdness/attpness, wa buayonness, sd stubborness, qn female>maleness, me is laziness?) We know that people here are people we can always rely on. Well, we used to be closer. But as we grow, i guess we have our different group of friends. The monthly gathering is good! In case you wonder why i left some out above, it's because i can't think of major flaws for them! It's a good thing. The rest includes huiyi, mathew, weekian, lingwei and laoda. These are the people i believe will be with me for the rest of this life. (To some rare cases like esmond, xinfu, joanne/a, hanyi, I still rmb you guys, but you all mia for too long/much. I really do meant that sentenced i bolded and I gotta admit i can't feel that when i think about you guys. Sorry >.<)

Now for 3n ppl
Masti - thank you for teaching me so much! hahah
Ifrit - Last time always see you. Now always mia alr.
Zhong ping - Funny fella.
Jiaxian - Also very long no see already.
Lee - You're an asshole.
GGM - You're the pain in the ass.
Joseph - Don't know a lot about you. But thanks for driving me!

P.sch buncha ppl. Shixiong, chuanwei, qicheng. Tho we don't contact as much and asking you all out seems to be a chore. I'm surprised that we still know wad's happening within each other's life. We're open about everything and it's a place where we can be back to who we really are. Like a phrase i heard somewhere before. If the xms group is my home. This is my hometown.

Janicia - You mia so long and yet you're the first one to sms me happy birthday. Gum Xia! Haha come out with us more la. And ya, i miss your dad too.

Yvonne - Really long time no see alr! Yes i know i know, i still owe you something tho i duno wad. Got time go eat BCM lo, i treat you. Add mee add pork add soup. Catch up with you soon!

And for the special one,
Shiyi - I love you =)

Hmm, went for cruise at starvirgo the past 2 days ! Well, it was my first time going for cruise and uh, i doubt i will be going back soon.

It's not that it wasn't fun, it's just that there isn't much to do there and to be honest, the food sucks to the core (except for the jap food which cost 89 bucks for 2 person). I am so damn glad we got the dining voucher. haha

Second day was a pretty sad one as we lost the camera. One thing really commendable. The service on the cruise is nothing you'll find in Singapore. If I were to give a 9/10 for it, the best ever service i received in Singapore is a mere 6.5/10. How to make wad integrated resort?! And the only Singaporeanic thing I heard from a Singaporean is going to write some complain letter to duno where cuz taxis on-call are stoping at taxi stop, claiming that it's blocking other people who didn't book a taxi. Hello! They paid for the service, and it's only a minimal delay. If you dont wanna pay a few bucks to cut the queue, then stfu.

Overall it was a ok ok experience la. Only good thing about the trip was my companion =)
