i never liked my birthday. in fact, for as long as i can remember, i never enjoyed all the attention. yeah, since young. and yeah i know as a small kid u get excited and stuff with the cakes and candles and wish and presents etc but i dont really feel excited about mine.
no idea why.
and i grew to associate bad things with my birthday, and the number 1102. that's probably because some bad things happened to me during my birthday. for example, getting dumped. yes yes, roll those eyes. roll some more. nanti juling karang, baru tau. yup, i was dumped once on my birthday. she could've chosen a better day to send that bloody email but no she chose my birthday to do so (together with the birthday wish). fuck.
no hard feelings though. luckily i had a wonderful colleague (i was doing training at that time) who saw this little kid and intern feeling a bit below the weather and gave him what he loves most at that time - financial news magazines. she really made my day :)
anyways, yesterday was different. nothing happened. yup, you guessed it. nothing bad happened. nothing at all. it was a neutral day.
was surprised, quite pleasantly so. as they say, no noos is good noos.
made me look forward (just a little) to the coming year :)
p.s. thanks for the birthday wishes xx
p.p.s. thanks for the presents :)
