Now I can vote, watch R(A)...
I'm officially 21yrs one day old...actually less than a day but ah well. *shrugs*
Been one of the most 'normal' birthdays after 3 very special ones planned by Adeline. One might say that this is the culmination of the phrase 'familiarity breeds complacency', or you could also attribute it to the fact that Singapore so so small that almost everything that could be done can be done in 3 years. After which there's nothing else left.
Called MOE in the morning but the lass wasn't in. 15 minutes later she called me and told me to turn up on next Tuesday morning. I ain't gonna screw THIS one up man...Got messages from a motherload of YFers...something initiated by Richard. Was rather perplexed at first coz I didn't even know some of them and there they were wishing me a happy birthday.
Met Adel in the train. She was rather pissed coz I made her wait for pretty long. Another justification that female minds work in a completely different way than we poor unsuspecting males expect. I mean if you tell me that you want to meet at Clementi WHEN you are already leaving and I'm not even ready yet you gotta expect to wait quite a while right? Wrong. At least, to girls its wrong. But ah well...I'm hardly a punctual person and I've made her wait many times before; not a good thing for a guy to make a girl wait. But I do it.
She also got worked up over my loss of my handphone pouch, or the fact that I forgot that it was her that paid for that pouch. Gee she got worked up over a couple of things today and to tell the truth I got rather nonplussed. But things were more often than not my fault. When I read back what I'd typed before I realise I've made my girlfriend sound so unreasonable. But she's not. She's sweet, thoughtful and adorable.(Especially when she fell asleep on my shoulder...that was dangerously sweet...) And I love her. Ahh...one of the many paradoxes of life.
We went to Marche's for lunch, where she had her 'favourite' bread while I had pasta, lousy teppanyaki and the world's most expensive root beer. Took neo cards at the arcade, and had dinner at KFC, where we got a bonus meal. We had a choice between a $8.75 combo with 2 drinks, 2 cole slaws, 2 whipped potatos, 2 pc chicken and a bandito pockett, and a $8.95 one that was more or less the same except it didn't have the bandito pockett and had 4 pc chicken instead. We decided on the former coz we had a late lunch (4pm). But when I presented the coupon, what I got were 4pc chicken AND the bandito pockett at $8.75. Heh...
We met Invader Sim who was spending the last available moments of his civilian life with Charmaine, and passed him the prickly heat powder. Spent the last few hours of my birthday at his place to accompany him and then returned home.
Some people say turning 21 is the transition from child to adulthood. The key to an independant life. To me it was just another day. Experiences make up your transition from child to adulthood, not the amount of time you've spent breathing on this earth.
When you're tired, your eyelids suddenly have magnets in them
Riding hard, fast, safely AND taking a few corners.
