The Day of The Year

"Oh crap!"
When the clock hit 12:00:00am, that's exactly how I reacted inside me. I'm done with 21 years old! Still feeling reluctant to accept I'm twenty plus and now it's my 22nd birthday. I was even having this silly thought of bargaining with Mr. time from moving any faster. You don't wait, do you Mr Time?
As usual, I've been thinking how many and what birthday wishes I will get through my mobile phone and Facebook. Besides of feeling alittle excited on what I will be getting during this special day of mine, either surprises or gifts, I can't help to reminisce on how I'd spent my 21st birthday and the year which was supposed to be a milestone of my life. People like what I used to be, being 21 years old, get to have a key-like necklace pendant from parents signifying the freedom to self life choices and of course your responsibility to your decision too, and also, a kind of blessing from our parents.

I've got the "key" ever since my last year's birthday, I had been wearing it throughout the year, unwilling to take it down because it outshined all the necklaces I've ever had. I guess I'll still want to have it laying around my neck for some time longer, afterall the purpose of the given "key" is something lifelong. Oh, but I didn't mean that it's mandatory for all people to get the "key" from their parents. Just like my elder brother, he didn't have it physically but I believe the "key" is in his heart. Anyway, I thought he would look totally weird with a fine necklace around his neck.

Chocolate berry cake from my bro!

*Gasp* "what is this?"

" Is this a birthday cake? So special and cute!"

" Take one pic of me with this cake please~"

Thanks Norman for the ice cream cake!

Happy birthday to me!
