Ambrosia

I'm pretty excited about this year's birthday :) Usually I'm pensive and all moody and thinking about what I have done in my life during birthdays,but this year's starts out with a bang :)

On Friday my friends actually cooked for us a meal, in honor of my birthday!It's really very nice of them...

Deying was the first to wish me happy birthday by sms.She smsed me 1 hour ahead because she goes by Singapore time.
Then a long time colleague who had quit the company smsed me soon after.I'm surprised he still remember my birthday but more touched that he bothered to sms me to wish me.

But the main thing is:
Mami and ALiang actually knocked on my door and wished me happy birthday at 12o'clock and even gave me a hug!Both of them!!!
Of course I was surprised and elated and felt loved and felt this is the best birthday I've ever had in my life!
No money,no amount of precious jewels can buy this feeling.
I love you guys,really.I love my family.

And tomorrow my boyfriend is going to cook me a birthday brunch.How sweet is that? :)
And yes,no money can buy this meal either.

Thank you all.I feel so loved and so blessed to have each and everyone of you in my life.
What a rich life I'm living :)

All Lessons Learned In Love
by Regina Treadway


After a while you learn the subtle difference
between holding a hand and chaining a soul
And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning
and company doesn't always mean security
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
and presents aren't promises
And you begin to accept your defeats
with your head up and eyes ahead
with the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child
And you learn to build all your roads on today
because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans
and futures have a way of falling down in
mid-flight.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns
if you get too much.
So plant your own garden and decorate your own soul
instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure
that you really are strong
and you really do have worth
And you learn and you learn
with every goodbye you learn..
