Today I'm born into the world as a midnight child, the child of the late 80s now beginning her life in her 20s (ha! i know, too much of Midnight's Children). Maybe coz of the heavy workload i'm handling now, surprisingly, i find today will be an ordinary day. But Eightie assured me life will be better, no matter how pessimistic adulthood seems to be. Eightie touched on the dream of children-that they wish to sprout and be an adult as fast as possible. For freedom. I asked, really will have more freedom meh? Eightie's reply was, to a certain extent. If he answered yes or no, i wouldn't have been delighted. When yes and no weren't the answers, i felt good.
Today will be an ordinary day, but also a special one because i will keep everything safe in my hands. And I know whether today's my birthday or not, somewhere out there someone will be watching and protecting me. It's safe and peaceful today, and i'm glad im enjoying every bit of this gift now.
For my close ones who wish me a smooth year ahead and a happy birthday, this is a little something i'd like to share with you guys, esp ppl who are turning 20, 21 or are already in their 20s. Thank you for the well wishes!!!

"Have A Good Time" Yesterday it was my birthday. I hung one more year on the line. I should be depressed. My life's a mess. But I'm having a good time.
I've been loving and loving and loving. I'm exhausted from loving so well I should go to bed. But a voice in my head says, "Ah, what the hell."
