April Girl!
This post is so gonna be balderdash- I'm writing this
without having any sapient advice or valuable insights to share with you
people. Give me a short one minute, and I’ll think of something to write here.
Hmm.
*********
Dear readers, I've just turned 22 (10 days ago to be exact), so
hooray hey happy belated birthday to me! *dances in delight* Well that’s
not the highlight of this gibberish post. Ohmygawd what was I planning to say a
second ago? Uh.
Oh ahha, I was born in a big family with 12 siblings,
and I've gotta admit that I learnt how to be gratified and
perked up even by simple little things in this life for that very reason. Never
in my entire life I've celebrated my birthday or have it celebrated
by other people. I never know how it feels like to be in a grand birthday
party or unwrap boxes of special birthday presents. I never know how it feels
like to get a long chain of birthday wishes on Facebook whatsoever. But who
cares. I myself don’t even bother to remember my own birthday, and I tell you
what, if it’s not because of those less-than-50 “Hey Happy Birthday”, “Sweet 22
darling”, “HB” messages appearing on my phone, pfft I wouldn't even
realize it’s my birthday on that particular date. Oh well.
Frankly speaking (I MEAN it), birthday is merely a date for me. Another
ordinary day to go through and a turning point in fact, for me to grow wiser as
I get older. *frowns* I wonder if that’s the reason my mom asked me to start
wearing handbag (ain't no way I'm gonna do that), donning wah-so-girly-ah-you
dress (depends on occasion), applying some makeup (oh yea hantu to
be for sure) and all, you know, girlish stuff. Ehhem.
So what do I do on my birthday? Taking a bath and brushing my teeth and
playing games as usual and heeeee. Just kidding, nothing special. Or maybe,
there is indeed something special that I always do on this day.
A call.
Rather than expecting a call from someone special, I actually anticipate
more to give a call to someone special. (Someone special? No) Two-ones special–
mom and dad (oh my, ignore those nonsensical English words please, haha). Dato’
Dr. Haji Mohd Fadzilah Kamsah once said, “Birthday is meant to be a day for you
to thank your parents for raising you well, a day for you to give a gift for
them instead of yourself. You are what you are today because of them, remember
that.”
I reckon that explains everything for my two cents on this birthday
topic. Thanks for the wishes anyway peeps! And I do love cakes (Just saying).
Good night.
p/s:
