21 years have gone by..
.. and I am an adult now... well, officially. How do I feel? Nothing much, really. It's like I'm 21 since the start of this year and if it is gonna mean anything, it'll just remind me that I'll have to be responsible for my own actions now. More responsibility and hopefully some maturity? :P
Had 2 celebrations over the weekend, and took a time off from studies. 1st was a chalet at Downtown East in which I invited my secondary sch friends. Didn't want too many grps of friends which would be too much to handle, naturally, I decided on those who have been with me the longest. Vivien went along too, and I'm really suprised she turned up.. more so with her boyfriend. They seem real suitable for each other tho, and he's quite a nice fella too, so no sour grapes here.
It was the usual BBQ-cardgame chalet.. until Yx and Jit had me drinking tequila. After about 3-4 cups full (or thereabout), I felt the room spinning. Anyway, what followed after was toilet bowl-hugging, cold showers, falling off the bed and dropping flat each time I stood up. Man, that feeling was the first and the last. Tho it was hellish, I'm glad I experienced it. And what better timing than my 21st bday?
But I really owe my guests an apology for getting wasted and being unable to do my job as a host. :( Real paiseh that you guys have to show your way out in the morning.
The 2nd one was a gathering organized by my parents at my old house. Lotsa food and stuff, and once again I felt bad that everyone had to take time off a precious Saturday to drop by. My parents presented me with what was supposed to represent the key to freedom - the key to the old car! woots.. only to be told later that they're gonna scrap it at the end of the month. So much for a 2 week present. pft. I really enjoyed myself over the weekend tho, made me thankful of the people I have around me.. my parents especially, for their effort in trying to make me feel special.
Back to school work after today.. first of the assignments due next week. I'd really like to thank those who turned up for the chalet, tho it was unfortunate that I've some close friends who couldn't make it. Well then, next similar occasion = stag night. I'll try to work towards that.
