It is 13th July today and in about 20 mins, I will be 25. I confess that I have never been a big fan of birthdays. Well.. The chance to meet up with friends who care, is probably one of the only reasons I look forward to my birthday every year. As for the gifts, well... to keep it simple, it is not their worth that matter but rather the thought behind them.
It was interesting to see how much some friends have changed after 10 years. The playful boys before is now an amazing tuition teacher who knocks sense into his student. The career woman is having her first child. And so many more.... I guess I have changed quite a fair bit over the last ten years too. From an overtly shy introvert with self-esteem issues, I have changed to a slightly more confident person who is slightly more confortable with being an extrovert or rather taking up the ways of an extrovert. In terms of studies or careers, I think I always have the belief that with enough effort, one should do well. I would say that I am afterall pretty laid-back in the studies/career department. Laid-back not in the sense that I am lazy but rather I do not make the effort to venture or do more. I guess that is something I have to work on when I start working.
In terms of emotional maturity, I wonder if I have changed much. I would like to think that I have matured a great deal over the years. But you never know.. One of the greatest uncertainties maybe right now is probably in the love-life department. I guess I have always been looking for that one thing but it has always eluded me. I thought I found it on at least 2 occasions but it is obviously not the case, and I am alone here on Henderson Wave, typing a blog entry.
In any case, this is life...
