The M I N D E

Its my birthday today. It doesn't feel like it. Haha, its funny.its when I'm legal and supposed to be happy-go-lucky about my ticket to this much talked about 'freedom' that I feel the LEAST excited. Seriously. I've never been this blase about my birthday before. I still can't conjecture if that's good or bad. Well, if it's any consolation, God gave me the BEST present I could ask for. That's Big Guy alright. Always pulling through for me. *_* So yeah. I'm 18. I'm a girl. I feel equally excited about those two facts. I wonder if things would have been any different if I was home. Probably not. I guess it's because I grew up thinking birthdays were a big deal. Re-socialisation's setting in though. This is probably the beginning of many unbelievably mundane birthdays to come.

Jeez. It was evidently a depressing day.

Birthday Blues

My urge to write gets stronger everyday. Its like I've opened Pandora's box or something. Okay so it's about 14 hours to my birthday and I'm supposed to be turning legal. Big whop. The only thing I have to show for it is my Voters' ID card and my future driver's license (okay maybe not so much of a big whop *_*) Strangely, or maybe not so, I don't feel any special. Growing up, birthdays have always been a big deal for me and I almost always make a fuss...in my head anyway. Last year, oh my, I didn't even get a cake. I realise that each passing year, the novelty wears off more and more. Sloowly. I'm about to turn 18 and I feel as normal as I do when I'm about to brush my teeth. I AM thankful for my life and for another shot at it but that's where the party ends. For me, it's just another day. Happy almost birthday to me *blows out imaginary candle*

The Genesis of My Candour Pangs

I'm sitting in the library and its two days to my birthday (whoop-de-doo) and I should be cramming my head with locations and population figures and all that shish-kabob (because yes, I have the most exciting subject ever - Geography of course - in less than 24 hours) but all I can think of is how much I want to blog. I'm experiencing a moment of candour and the only form of technology currently available to me is a calculator. Go figure. I'll be home soooon :) . Alright, I'm jumping off Cloud 9 now. So yeah, where was I? Advantages of rail transport...
