I turn 22 today. Looking back, 22 years is a very short road. I'm lucky compared to many out there who has to go through 22 years of long hardship.
I appreciate what i have up till now. Friends that stands up for me, family that loves me unconditionally, occasional ups and downs that strengthens me, coming across various people that shapes who i am today.
I remember, few years back, i wrote a post... either in my diary or somewhere.
I did not need friends.
How wrong was i.
Friends whether close or not (occasional hie-bye friends) are life's necessity.
From learning to gain friend, i learn how to lose friends.
and from learning to lose a friend, I learn that losing a friend is one of the best way to gain another. Behind the facade of certain friends, i've found the real definition of a friend (which are limitless).
I believe that in order to find part of myself, i've depended on my friends. Each and everyone of them with their little quirks adds the colors to my life and the personality i have now.
A best friend who enjoys giving me ups and downs (in a good way) made me a more flexible person. I've learn that gives and takes are never in an equilibrium. But when its come to calculating who receives more, it never does matter. Because good things always come in the smallest form. Whether a little short random message to tease me or asking how my day is makes up for the big things we disagree on or the days where she pushes the limit of my patience. I'm grateful that she allows me to sit back and relax in her company. Giving me the chance to be the ultimate lazy me when i'm with her XD. She knows how much of a bummer i am. Well at least she knows when i need a kick in the ass to start moving and get things done!
Uni best friend ('S' you know who you are!) you are the one who makes me fat! shares the same birthday month and horoscope! yes YOU! haha.
Thanks for always listening to my dull crap, lame ass jokes, verbal vomit of rantings and so much more. Thanks for always letting me freeload at your place.
Did you know, i've always enjoy staying over ur place and watching movies till the wee hour? It made up for the childhood or teenage years which i was deprived of all this girly times. I love how i can hang out with you and just be myself. Doing silly stuffs like random dances or videos just for the heck of it.... heyy do you think we will be youtube stars one day? hahaha please spare me the agony! I'll always be wishing you success at whatever you NEED to do in life! Hahaha remember...we still wanna 'tumpang glamour' ya!
My Butter Group! Hahahaha what can i say? We eat, we steal, we love, we sing, we just live life as we see fit! How can i not love you people. Thanks! (well they won't be reading this. but i'll say my thanks anyway) Each individuals with their own traits. What do you get when you put a few 'ordinary' people together? You get a dose of extra ordinary people ( hahaha forgive me...i'm laughing at my own lame joke) Anyway Butter On! Spread the love B-)
I cannot not thank this bunch! Bunch of people that belongs to a room in the corner of the Uni cafeteria.
Tell me a year ago that i would fall in love with that room....NO WAY!!!
I will never EVER get along with those people. OMG what am to do? i think there will be a communication break down... definitely!
Fast forward... i got to eat my own words. I've learned to adore them. Each and everyone of them with their own brand of craziness.
Fact is, despite me complaining about the noise in there and the level of maturity,
It a place i can actually de-stress in after a day of classes and bitchy lecturers.
Oh its also my personal gym! wrestling is good for health and mind! I kid you not.
So thank you for making me bring out my inner child!
Lastly, to 3 special new individuals. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Stomach pain! Thats what you give me! Abs? how to get them? Join them for a day out. Laughter therapy. However, bring in the few laments i have and they will willingly listen and suggest funny solutions but workable. You don't know how grateful i am for your company and those 'shoot those words straight into my heart' attitude you guys have. I am very very thankful for the straightforwardness! it hurts but it makes me realise alot of things. Silliness or seriousness.
Wait...what about my family? I don't think i need to thank them here. It will take a lifetime for me to write that. Suffice to say, we're a family. And i love them the most.
Why did i write such a looooong boring post just to satisfy my own finger typing craving? Who knows... maybe growing up makes me think more.
Maybe growing up, birthdays are not about the presents.. Its about counting the blessing i've received in life and being appreciative of them.
After all, counting blessings are like receiving gifts. Only they don't come in one big lump on a day. They are just disguised in every single possible ways.
You just need to look out for it.
Best things in life don't have expiry dates. Its ALWAYS the thoughts that counts.
p.s - the above post is FILLED with grammar mistakes and spelling errors. never admitted to have good command of English. So don't go all English Officer on me
hahaha XD
A song (with no melody yet....well i forgot the melody...don't ask... it was impromptu).
Dedicated to my FRIENDS!
Along The Lines
We started out at the piano, Undecided
What are we to do here?
She stroke a key and urge us to start
With nothing in mind
We tried to gather our thoughts
We'll find a way,
Together we'll put thoughts onto paper to music,
So for now, Just
Let it out, Just
Let it out
Maybe somewhere along the lines,
It'll all come together, our journey, our lives.
Friends by our side,
Encouragement we have plenty. Urges to sing on with melody provided.
We don't have to care about the flow,
Its all fun and love for what we do,
And so
We'll find a way,
Together we'll put thoughts onto paper to music,
So for now, Just
Let it out, Just
Let it out
Maybe somewhere along the lines,
It'll all come together, our journey, our lives.
The days after graduation, all those times we had,
We'll look back and ponder as we walk through our memories,
Bringing forward our hopes and dreams
Little things of joys and love.
It has been there all alone, this tune of familiarity,
Along the lines of friendship.
For now,
We'll find a way,
Together we'll put thoughts onto paper to music,
So for now, Just
Let it out, Just
Let it out
Maybe somewhere along the lines,
It'll all come together, our journey, our lives.
Along the lines of friendship.
Written by me!
