the ultimate day

it's my birthday today. i stopped putting high hopes of people remembering it years ago. i used to care and become all sentimental about it but now, i've kinda grown out of it. if people remember, then i'm thankful, if they don't, it's not a big deal.

one funny incident occurred. last two nights, my friends, teha and Ad, got the date mistaken and came all the way to my room to surprise me with a gift, Sya even messaged a birthday wish, hehe. embarrassed when i said she was a day early, she took it back... hehe, i love the thought though.

last night, after watching The Apprentice, nibah called. So i chatted with her, chik and ayah. mak had already wished me before she tucked in. then, my closest friends gathered at azza's cublicle, saje je buat tak tahu, so i went about my own business. then they sang the Happy Birthday song with my face going all red, hehe, and gave me a card and a paper bag with a book in it. Cbah and Azza bought it at the conference they went to. it was the book written by Dr Ang Swee Chai, 'from Beirut to Berlin' i think... tak yah beli dah buku tu.

today, Jihan, Saidat, Ad and Sabrina gave me a lovely mug... it's so colourful and big... bley makan maggi dalam tu... i hope i don't break it...

what i'm most thankful for is having a wonderful family and friends... they don't have to give me anything (though a gift does seem nice once in a while)... i love them whole-heartedly already.
