It has been a really long 21st year. Lots of ups and downs. Especially the last week. Somehow, birthday seems to take on a meaning that it should have always been - a new lease of life for a whole year.
Ending my last few days of my 21st year mostly in exhaustion and depression, and succumbing to flu on the actual day of my birthday, it isn't what I would have most desired. I'm just glad that I fell sick right after the A cappella competition. It would have been much worse if I did fall ill before the comp. It was definitely a traumatising week for me.
But it couldn't have gotten better on the first day of my 22nd year. My friends and teachers from Music Clinic celebrated my birthday. I'm just so glad that I have them to kickstart a brand new year for me. And they never fail to surprise me with the things they had made me do for my birthdays - They were the first who brought me to clubbing on my 21st birthday and making me drunk with lamborgini. They were the first to coerced me to drink ORANGE martini because they know how much I hate orange. Yeeks. Can't stand it. I still hate oranges. And they warned me that I should expect fresh oranges in future. Oh god. Oh, and I loveeeee the brown (yes, my 3rd brown jacket) Adidas Originals jacket they bought for me. They so can read my mind...
Though my mood was initially dampened by flu yesterday, they still managed to make me enjoy the whole evening, that even though I needed sleep desperately, I still went out for a midnight movie with them. Well, we watched "Nacho Libre" which was supposed to be entertaining and I suppose I wouldn't fall asleep because it's THE Jack Black movie, but I still dozed off midway thru the movie. Oh.. but it was funny, though the plot was dumb. Nevertheless, it was a great night well-spent. I really missed the people from Music Clinic. Besides my new- found USP friends, I guess they are the only group that I truly enjoy having fun with. Cos we really play and do funny things together. Somehow, I just don't get the kind of enjoyment with friends whom I'm known for years. Is it because of expectations? Is it because we are all trying to hold the group together, for whatever reason? It is because of the kind of obligation that we-should-meet-up-once-in-a-while-usually-for birthdays kinda thing? I dunno but I supposed every social circle just have their way of workings. Just like every other family. There is no right or wrong way of maintaining it but we just get by. Somehow amazingly. It's just how nature works i guess. At least I'm glad that everyone of us makes an effort to keep in contact with one another. As long as we care for each other and support one another when we need them.
