The Big 2-2

During my birthday dinner with family and a bunch of relatives, they asked me how old I was turning. AND they added as an aside if I would mind saying my age out loud. I'm not THAT old! Not old enough to be embarrassed of mentioning my age at least. Actually I don't think I'll ever feel weird about telling people how old I am. In fact, I like this number, 22, easy to remember! And for the record, I'm looking forward to turning 50 or half a centurian;)

My birthday was pretty uneventful, I actually forgot it was my birthday until someone asked for the date (that was around 1pm). However, this birthday was extra-special because I got to spend it with my Dad, Mum, and brother. The whole family together. Hasn't happened ever since I went off to uni. And it might not happen again for a while. Because who knows where I'll be next year. All in all, getting to this birthday has been an interesting journey and THAT's what it's all about.

On to another totally different topic. Enoch (my bro) went back to Canada today. I went with him to the airport. We sat a Pacific Coffee for a while. I felt so ripped off by their $30 drinks ($5 cdn). I miss Timmy's and William's. Anyhow, I'll get back to Enoch now. I can't believe I won't be seeing him for a whole year. It's just weird, after spending last year with him in Guelph. It's like our roles have been reversed. Me stay in HK while he flies back to Can. I'll miss him more than I know.

And last but not least, a bit of randomness will I throw in: we bought 2 of these Ikea chairs today. And I put them together all by myself:) And I actually had fun....go figure.
