17 was such a nice age, because I was young enough to get away with things. During my life I’ve always been sheltered from adult responsibilities, but now that I’ve officially turned 18, things are gonna change.

Now that I’m 18, I’m legally an adult. I have to be self-reliant and take responsibility in the choices that I make. To be frank, I’m not sure if I’m a fully matured person, both mentally and emotionally. So the ‘taking control of my own life’ thing kinda scares me a little. It’s not the transition of childhood to adulthood that scares me; it’s the responsibilities that I have to take I’m worried about. I just feel that I’m not ready for them – just yet. It’s like the more we are able to do, the more is expected of us. Always have, always been.

In my opinion, I’m still a kid. I still think and act like a kid. I like to do things that a normal 18 year-old girl would do. Hang out with friends, goof around and all that nonsense. What’s life without some fun, right? Whatever it is, I’ll just take it one step at a time. I definitely have a lot of growing up to do despite my age. Haha. I make myself sound SO old sia. Tsk. But it’s the truth.

Having said all these..
You are only young once, but you can be immature for a lifetime. =D HEKHEK.

Anyway, I had a very nice birthday weekend. For my 18th birthday, I received quite a number of gifts. I got a red jansport backpack which I wanted really badly from fbfg, a levi’s watch and notebook and wallet from my colleagues at work, a $120 red packet from A crew, a photo collage and towel from Huiyun, a red num wallet from my besties, a lomographic fisheye camera from Zhisheng and a dvd from kkb. Plus 4 birthday cakes and 2 birthday cards. Love the ipod card by the way. ;)

No words can express my gratitude for all of you guys. Thanks for making my 18th birthday a memorable one, really. I can proudly declare that I have the most amazing friends one can ever ask for. Thank you guys for taking the effort do come up with the surprises, appreciate it. =D

THANK YOU, GOD, FOR EVERYTHING.
