Timecheck

When...

- Countergirls take only one glance to recommend 'age-defying' and 'anti-ageing' skincare series
- Professing to following a certain hugely popular series on 17 yr olds raised quite a few eyebrows
- Serum are replaced by concentrates as warfare regime against lines and wrinkles
- The volume of wedding invites surpasses the birthday parties
- Insurance agents advise topping up health premiums


Yes,its birthday time once again.

There are things which I still havent mastered after 27 birthdays.
Like what to do when the birthday song is sung, of whether i can blow off the candles all at once, of what to wish for despite knowing (with 27 yrs of experience) that most likely time it wont come true.
But above all to show how thankful I actually am, to still have so many family and friends who bother to organise and celebrate it with me- even if I've never initiated my own bdae celebrations finding it too bothersome, even though we are yawning away after a long day at work,even when I have reiterated that I don't want one.

Thanks for remembering and also for the smses traditional or innovative(yeah esp that trailer one:P), well wishes whether early,on time or belated, candles be it 1, 27 or 30.

Yeah,even if it was an upward rounding of age - I appreciated it.
Gracious ain't I?
It comes with age;)

SG day was great!! there were so many stalls with free food sampling. i spent the whole day just waiting in line for the next s'pore dish. unfortunately, they all pale in comparison to what's back home.

but the appearances by the dim sum dollies, hossan leong, sebastian tan and mr brown more than made up for it. haha. it was singlish in all its glory! and they were even giving out free copies of her world and female, which i hungrily devoured. hehe.

can't wait to get back home to have real s'pore food!
