Independence day...for me.
In 2012, Jan 28th, on the 6th day of the Lunar Chinese New Year, I officially turned 21 years old. As per norm, people always celebrated their 21st birthday with a huge "hooha" and such. But I guess being a guy (or just me) I didn't really planned on having one. Then again my parents insisted on having a "party", so ya that's how it came true.
Since I'm gonna have a party, it means having to invite people over. So it means having to think of who to invite. Being a person who dislikes having awkard moments, therefore I too wun want to put my friends into such situations. Hence other than my relatives, I only invited my really close friends, GOF (too bad couldn't have full attendance). I'll feel bad if I were to invite everyone I know and then in the end for the whole night I have to hop from group to group and not give my fullest attention to any. So yup, settled for a small gathering, not much awkard entertaining, cozy, warmth, comfortable, fun, just my style :).
Not gonna go into the details of the "party", for it'll bore ppl to death. Jus food, cake, alot of Happy cny/Happy bdae going around. Thou one interesting fact is never to buy Ice cream cake again. Or if you'll want remember to leave it out for at least an hour before you cut it...otherwise good luck to you HAHA!
Thou up till now, I still don't get what's the big deal about turning 21. I don't feel any different, not very older, not very wiser, still the same old me. People always say being 21 means you are independent, and start to have "wings". But then again, at the age of 21, I still have university to go through before I can even start work. So in the end it still means there's still the reliability on the parent's part. I dun get how much independent one can become at such a age.
Or maybe its because I believe one dosen't get independent just overnight, but instead through the years. An accumulation of all the life lessons that you've experienced, all the falls, all the successes, and now who you are. Its not like I'm the Dalvin now I am immediately when I'm born ma.
Ok what's wrong with me, getting analytical again when this is supposed to be a post bout my 21st. Tsk. K gonna stop talking and spam photos now. Enjoy.
