Prequel - Quarter of a Century

..::*+ Small Talk +*::..

Treasure it, for you won't know when it'll be taken away from you.

Perhaps it has already been taken away.

You can't please everyone. But you can choose not to be affected by them. Coin is yours. Whether to flip it or not at all, it's really up to you yourself.

It's not like I cannot identify who these people are, but I want to treasure every single one of them. If then, emotional disturbed is what I get, I rather walk away, this time.

Early doesn't mean it's kidding.

Today my house church celebrated my early birthday with me. This is the first time celebrating in a new house church. It feels different.

The fact that the exam period starts few days before my birthday really make me not really in the mood to celebrate. Six years of birthday celebrations were all combined with post-exam party. This time it is different. New people. New surroundings. New friends. New university. New life.

A new life of perhaps running away before I could stand up strong to face some unsettled things.

Nevertheless, I want to make it right, this time.

This time, I want to be strong.

This time, I be different.

You gotta love that smooth mango cheese cake made by none other than Sally!

Unexpected dinner treat of Pakistanis' awesomeness of Pulao Briyani. Yummy!

How nice of friends who made sushi for me because the restaurant that we supposed to go and celebrate my birthday unexpectedly didn't open during lunch time.

The spicy syrup drink by the Pakistanis housemate

Oh yea, I haven't claim my free Starbucks drinks. Will go tomorrow.

Well, actually all of these I could post after the big thing. But I think I will forget it if I don't record things down. Suffer minor short-term-memory symptoms already. Talk about aging.

So this is pre-birthday celebrations!

Here's to quarter century of my life on earth. And many many years more, before Jesus's second return!

And yea, I should blog more. Before memories fade away. :/
