Been thinking about my birthday, which is in exactly two weeks from now. ... Oh wait, apparently not, since it is already Saturday. Turning 19 this year. It's such a 'meh' age, really. I used to just dismiss it, but now it's not so bad - I'm actually sort of looking forward to it! Don't know why I'm thinking about it already. Well, I was never the sort to forget my birthday. But then again, these past few years, I've always had a reason to remember my birthdays.
When I turned 16, it was during O Levels. I had no paper on that day, but since it was O's, every day that passed was carefully monitored. When I turned 17, the CJ band committee had to meet Bro Paul on that day to discuss the prospects of CJCSB. I remember joking around that my birthday luck would come in handy in getting a good deal out of Brother Paul haha. If I remember correctly, it did turn out to be a fruitful discussion. ;) In 2010, it was an uneventful 18th and also A Level Math Paper 1. I spread my birthday luck all around before the paper, but it turns out I wasn't so lucky myself. (B for H2 Math, but owells! Haha)
So ... 19, huh. Nothing special surrounding my birthday this year, no important events around that period, really. Unless 11-11-11 is counted as a major thing, which it apparently is, for many people. Haha, my head's a mess trying to imagine what it'll be like. But I feel, for lack of a better word, positive. :) I don't know. I think after your debut age (It's a big deal for most of us, k. To what extent ... Now, that's something else.) has passed without you doing anything, nothing really beats that. And from there, everything is just up up and away. My heart feels light and optimistic. Really! :D Haha, just felt like I had to put this down.
3000-4000 word film essay (that I have not started on :S) due by the end of today. Really should be writing it now. But I'm going to bed instead, goodnight. Haha. :)
