An auspicious day

Today was real hectic the moment i woke up from bed. At the top of today's list was of coz my undang test and on the other hand i had an important lecture i have to attend today. So basically, i sat for my undang and then my poor mum have to fetch me from the academy to college.(sounds pretty ordinary? nah...we have to RUSH RUSH RUSH, to make things worst, my mom doesn't know the place since the driving instructor took me there instead of her taking me there + the stupid GPS coundn't find the place.Whats the use of a GPS if it doesn't show the way? so when my mum finally found the place, we sort of RUSHED to the campus and again to make things worst, there was traffic jam >.< and we kept taking detours which end up taking a longer time, and it was almost 11 which is when the lecture actually starts. So i was praying so hard my palms started to sweat. Luckily God heard my prayers, i was in time and what more the computer ngam ngam got technical problem, so i didn't miss anything at all.

Then in college, we had talks talks and more talks and at the end of the day we had this campus team building thing and ya it was fun =) i wasn't daring enough to approach the guys in the first day but today i was forced to communicate with them through this team building thing. So in the end, i got a few more say acquaintance? One thing i hate about new beginnings is i have to make friends all over again, not that its a bad thing but sometimes ( and i felt it today) that there is this sort of invisible barrier, like...its hard to explain. I could feel that some ppl actually have this cold shoulder thingy like i can feel that they don't like my presence.Thank God the day ended and i reached home (special thanks to Janice for the lift)

After dinner i went online onto facebook and i got this overwhelmed feeling by those birthday wishes left by friends. I didn't expect anything like that in my whole life.Last year, every time when one of my friends had a birthday, their homepage would be filled with birthday wishes and sometimes you think that what does it matter if i put a message there, the message i put there felt so insignificant, and then i just thought to myself, if my homepage was like that during my b'day how nice it would be but i later told myself to stop daydreaming. I actually only expected a few people to wish me, probably only 4 ppl? the usual nice ppl and close good friends? But then i was overwhelmed by the number of b'day wishes that all the negative emotions of today was lifted and i felt this new spirit, hope. I was so touched till i wrote what i wrote on my wall, about the gap.People i seldom talked to even stopped by to wish me,which was nice and sweet of them, and thanks to Mior i got extra "wishes" because he was spamming =.= thanks to everyone on FB who lifted my spirits which gave me this sort of weird feeling which feels good.

And the highlight of the day,its so weird...people i don't really know wished me and the people that i know went the extra mile.I mean i wouldn't mind if they just send me an SMS or just wished me on FB ( the weird thing is ppl i dont know do that) but today, something different happened, two friends came to my house to celebrate my birthday (totally unexpected) and even though its just the two of them, they sang at the top of their lungs til i started beating them to lower their voice, the piece of cake even came complete with a candle, and i made another wish =) And then later we all walked down the dark street and the 2nd surprise sufficed. Hanging on the bushes there was this colorfully lighted sign reading "HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAE" ( unfortunately it came out "HAPPY IRTHDAY" some of it kena fused) The effort put in it was tremendous, he even asked the uncle to borrow him the electric supply ( and someone called me thick skin) and took Mag extension cord too, no wonder he was late. i really appreciate the effort, all the hole makings and the electric supply borrowing and the walking to my house when they actually really don't have to do all that, the surprise party was the best ever already, but they went the extra mile to come over and make this birthday even more memorable. Special thanks to Magdalene and Huey Teck who made today special for me =) i don't know what i did to deserve such hospitality from you guys, and even Mag was so sweet, just because she missed the surprise party she has to come celebrate with me today =3 isn't she the sweetest? I haven't got friends like them in my whole life before. They are one of a kind, hard to find like extinct creatures. Thank you very much to the both of you =) and sorry for letting you wait outside, i didn't know you all coming, i thought you all come to pass something only, and i oso thought my brother invited you guys in to play PS2 >.< sorry and thank you for the wonderful experience ^-^

and to put cherry on top of the cake, Kelly and Li Synn specially called up to wish me happy birthday. I'm sorry to Kelly for ending the conversation so abruptly since i was in the changing room busy changing >.< However it was sweet of her to personally call to wish me =) like i said FB would do, and Li Synn called up to sing a birthday song to me ^^ so i heard 2 birthday songs today. Thank you Li Synn and Kelly!! and thank you to ppl who smsed me on the dot at 12 such as Hui Hwa, Sook Yue, Huey teck and Magdalene. and also during the day such as Marcus, Xin Wei, Ester, Xue Yi,Long Xiang and Tania.Many thanks to my brother too, who bought me a SUPER JUNIOR ORIGINAL album ^-^ too bad it doesn't come with concert tickets =P
