. : 1 to 19! : .Since i've not been updating at all lately, i think now, more than ever, is the perfect timing to start updating. Why, you say? Maybe because as of today, i am exactly 1 month to becoming 19 years old. Not that i'm complaining or anything but, i feel like it's coming way too fast. I feel like it was just yesterday my classmates threw a surprise mini 18th birthday celebration in school for me.. And now i'll be turning 19 next month. Boo! I think time is moving too fast for me to appreciate things. But during my 18th year on this Earth, I can safely say that I've achieved a lot more that I think I could.. for instance, i took up Rock Climbing as a CCA for the fun of it, but it's starting to grow in me. I actually like to climb. I've even participated in a Rock Climbing competition, mind you. All along, I've only played badminton for leisure but last February, I took part in a badminton challenge in school, in collaboration with World Women's Day. And guess what, I got 3rd place overall and won a bronze medal. I also took part in water polo for the World Women's Day thingy and got 2nd place and a silver medal. I got 1st in class for my religious class exams. Only recently I knew that I could bake cakes and such, which meant another achievement for me because people kept ordering from me. =) And during my 18th year on Earth, I've met such wonderful people, and I'm glad that I know because without them, I dont think I'll achieve these things at all. This is a conversation between me and my mom a couple of days ago..Mom: What do you want for this year's birthday?Me: Urmm.. I think I've got everything already..Mom: What is it that you think I can do for you for your birthday?Me: Can you take motorcycle license for me *gleeming delightedly*?What more can I possibly want? - I've got loving family who cares about me. (Til a van full of family members supported me during my FIRST EVER rock climbing competition!)
- I've got friends who never fails to give me their support in whatever I do.. (seriously!!)
- I've got a boyfriend who never fails to encourage me to be better than where I already am. (he says, 'never settle for ok when you know you can do better'.)
- I've got beautiful people surrounding me with joy, happiness and laughter. (Oh Allah, please bless all these people who have showered Your slave here, with all the love, You can possibly bless. Amin)
The Babe said this to me last night..
Me: I wanna write 'Things I've achieved while being 18-years-old' on our blog lah.
Babe: Eh, you are 18 already? I thought you're still 17?
Me: Ouh yah.. I forgot.. I'm sweet 17, right?
Which comes to my next topic.. I don't look like my age.. People in US, looked a lot more matured than I am when they are 17, for example, Jordin Sparks. She looks like someone in her mid-20s already, and she hasn't even reach the number 2-something on her age. Can you imagine how old she'll look in 10 years from now??
I'm glad I don't look that old now. But it still bugs me why Sec 1 girls these days are trying to act way beyond their age. Putting thick make-ups on their faces like those EERIE clowns with wide smile painted on their face.. EEWWWWWWW!! ok at this point onwards, I'm already scaring myself.. let's just end it here..
On a lighter note, I'LL BE TURNING 19 on 3rd MAY!!!! I WANT PRESENTS PEOPLE!!!! GO DIG YOUR POCKETS NOW!!!! muahahahaha!!
much love ,
