1st time spending birthday overseas, away from family and most friends, plus the ever familiar environment. Also the 1st time without any birthday cakes, but it is ok as I have eaten too much last year liao, can live with a few birthdays without cakes!!! I did not really bother announcing to the friends whom I have gotten acquainted with at China about my birthday but I did have birthday wishes here and there when they know.
They even sang me birthday song when we are on the subway lah, super malu but touched to the max at the same time. :P Sweet of them considering we have not known each other for more than a week. :) Thank you Ching Hui, Katherine, Kai Li, Kai Qi, Lan Fang, Xuan Yun, Xuan Ping & Yimeng!!!
There was also the birthday surprise knock on the door by Yun Li, Kai Qin & Si Ting. Haha, thank you for starting my birthday on such a good note even though I was like ants on hot pot having realised the lost of my camera.
Even though overseas, I managed to feel much love from Singapore as friends sms, email or facebook me to send their birthday wishes to me at far away China! :))) It really make my day even though I realised I lost my camera the very same day... I got a phone call from my dad & mum respectively to wish me happy birthday! Really very touched. I cried after putting down the calls as cannot let my parents worry lest they think something happened to me. During those 2 moments, I miss home. I miss being at home and seeing my parents. But after a while then ok already. :)
Thank you Chao Hsiang (you are the 1st!!!), Meng Ling (my student), Ning Fei, Jingyi from Anderson, Xin Hui aka Beng Beng, Gim Yean, Zi Cheng, Yi Yun, Si En (my cousin), Mei Ling, Samuel Wong, Chuan Seng, Edward, Lionel, Jun Yue, Serene, Xue Ying, Pearl, Evon & Tien Kwan!!! Thank you for remembering & wishing me with all the nice words, you all made me feel super blissful, seriously.
Not forgetting the belated birthday wishers, I believe firmly it is better late than never so all your wishes were as important and greatly appreciated too!!! Thanks Kok Hong, Sum Xue Fen, Linah, Ke Ching, Huan Wei, Yan Wei, Jingyi from NUS, Joshua, Kai Wei, Bing De, Cindi, Thomas & Xiaohui!!! You guys made me feel the happiness of birthday for a few more days wor! ;) It is really the thought that counts, therefore thanks so much!!!
