Jinxed Out (?)
It’s my birthday today… and believe it or not, I guess I am jinxed out of the annual birthday jinxes. Hmm, wait! Maybe not. Well, for starters, I still have my birthday blues. So what if it is my birthday?
Since the last time I blogged, I still feel pretty crappy. However, I wish to thank the very few who showed their concern. Thanks Mel.
Aunt I is a huge gem by treating me to my first ever manicure and pedicure on Wednesday. I was pampered with massages and getting my nails done fabulously! (*^_^*). I felt a little better after the nice relaxing time at the parlor. Later that evening, we had finner with Aunt Simone and she presented me with a beautifully beaded poncho in black and gold. Groovy, I would say.
Then there was dinner with my dad on Thursday. It was a fun t
ime with food and chatting with my stepmom. I guess I found another nice place for dinner. Oh yeah, I received a card from big sis on Friday too.
Nothing much has been going on at all on September 23. I have yet to have my birthday dinner and movie special. This birthday tradition started during the days of high school where I dragged Joe to go for a dinner and movie with me every year. When I was in Japan, Mervin, Aki-chan, and Rajiv continued the tradition. However, we always went for Italian at Capriciozza. Ooh.. and we always take purikuras too. Hmm, I have to go do that. (T_T)
I have never been a big party or crowd fan. Even if there were celebrations, there were always held in small groups and only with close loved ones. I miss Miyo’s cakes. I called her last night to send birthday wishes to her and we chatted for a while. And I definitely miss my dinner with Otosan and Okasan… the good conversation, meal, and tiramisu! I reckon that people are busy on this day, and I definitely miss the fact that my birthday will always be a holiday (as in Japan)
Okay, things are not THAT bad over here either. I slept in late today and went out for lunch at my favorite restaurant on Aunt I with Mom, Su-Anne and Chris. Apart from that… nothing much. Everyone has their own plans for the day. Now I guess I have to hunt someone down for my dinner, movie, and purikura… boohoo! Hmm, and I don’t get to extort my gingerbread man from Matthew either. Sniff* But thank you dear for the sweet email. Love you lots!
Well, it is another year to my life. Let’s see what lays before me!
"Happy" Birthday Bunny.
