this has to be my best birthday ever

the day has barely started but there are just some people that i'm dying to thank.

i know that i am not young anymore. my priorities in life have changed, and my circle of close friends have been shrinking while my base of acquaintances have been expanding. presents have become much less appealing, while little gestures of kindness and love speak much louder to me these days.

thank you my honours class for the super big surprise on stage. i have seen this happen on stage before, but i never imagine that it would ever happen to me.

thank you my three crazy girls - eleen, cheryl and sam, for mr giraffe, and for putting all my ugliest pictures together for the funniest photoframe i've ever seen.

thank you lays, limjays, changnings, kel and twl for spending the last few moments of my 22nd year with me.

thank you zhaowei for being my dearest brother (and the very lovely porter bag).

thank you cheryl (again) for the piano piece, and the "two crazy girls singing" piece. i'm going to bed tearing because of you (awww...)

i shall end off with this very moving song. because a loved one has shared it with me and touched my heart, i hope that you too would be able to share with somebody you love and touch their heart.
