Tomorrow (following Ontario time) is my birthday and I've already gotten a surprise birthday celebration and a present! 22nd birthday and 1st time spending it away from home. I do not usually care alot about my birthdays but this will be a special one for me. Well, it could have have been better though, if the IO paper is not getting in the way...Haha.
Orla told me the girls would come for "some tea" at 7pm tonight. Well being naive as I am, I believed it totally since it is so normal to have guests in our room to have some tea. They were actually incubating a birthday surprise, which I happily embraced as I opened a door to a bunch of familiar faces and a big choc fudge cake. It was heart warming to have friends remember your birthday. I'm not a big fan of birthday celebrations but having experienced a few times the pleasant feeling of being remembered and coupled with the knowledge that people have made efforts to make you happy, I think birthday celebrations are not farcical after all (but still, subject to the context). So a big slice of choc fudge cake made my dinner :)
Then I got my first birthday gift from Orla! A maroon UWO T-shirt and a card! So sweet of her. 我被摸了。I think we've been getting closer and I'm confident that we click now. I'm sooo glad to have her as a roomie.
I video called home this morning and jiu jiu family and zhou yian family and Daphne were at our house. They had had dinner-guo tie and mi fen!! My stomach growls now at the thought of these foods. Although I had lots of dumplings last night, I still crave for the lovely home made guo tie :( Maybe I should start making some dumplings myself as Zhou Yian suggested, or easier, buy them from Far East.
Tonight has been good. Now I'm very tired and is at 3/25 pages. Boo. I shall wake up energised tomorrow morning and speed race through it! Target-Thurs!
