生日： 日升，日落。

和往年（think 24 years) 不一样的是..
今年没有太多对10月21号这一天的想法....

I've never dared to have too much expectations on birthdays,
simply because I'm so guilty of not remembering birthdays,
I can't even remember my mum's or my aunty's or sometimes the day creeps towards me,
and before I know it, wham its today, and I haven't got anything prepared.
So guilty, I'm not sure the blood of Christ can wash me clean on this.

忙忙碌碌了一阵子，
专辑也发了，
新生命：插班生 也面市了。
好多好多的事情都发生在我身上，
好人，好事，好人，伤心事。

今年是 Quarter-Life 'Crisis' ...
假如说我会活到一百岁...
所以应该要坐下来好好思考，好好回顾刚刚过去的24年。

说对生日那天没有什么祈求，
应该是骗自己的。
现在no feel,
到了那天又会想要在那美丽的时刻做一些耐人寻味的事。
也太虚伪，太矛盾了吧... 这颗贪心的心。

come on.
you're 25 years old.
知足长乐 有没有？？？

which is really not difficult, in my case.
家庭的温暖 － 有！(bonus: annoying phonecalls from 10 onwards to check on my whereabouts. 有！）
钱吃饭 －目前...还有！
朋友无私的关怀 - 有！有！ 有！
Puma 鞋 － 有！
Dr. Martens 鞋 - 一双...有！
爱的人 － 有！
爱我的人 －有！
churchies － 有！

I could go on and on...
I've led a blessed 25 years,
and sometimes I fear the next 25 years,
because I've really grown up,
and there's so much more to think about now,
and so much that could change.

and change is imperative.
Just as how stubbornly time trickles by,
I hope in the next 25 years,
I'll stubbornly stick by alot of things,
like my family, my friends, my religion, my principles...

but I also commit this next 25 years into your hands.
That it will be a vessel, as broken as it may be, that can be used for the goodness of many others.

It'll be another ten days before D-day comes.
Happy Early Birthday to myself.
have a simple, a joyous and a content one.

To this world: thank you for the love, thank you for the hurt, and thank you for life.
