My birthday was just over but I no longer have the excitement that I used to have when I was younger. Now I understand how the older people feel when they say that birthdays are just another day in their lives. Birthday had also became another day for me, although I like to bug some people for presents, just for the fun of it.
I still came to work on my birthday, unlike many who would take leave on their birthdays. My rationale is very simple. What if someone decides to give me a gift or a treat and I'm not around to accept it?? Hah. Anyway that did happen. 2 colleagues bought me lunch. The bosses bought cakes for the May babies. And people complimented my heels, but that is not exactly the point.
Dinner was with my family and the bf, eating crabs. No other activities after that. No longer as happening as before. I think it gets tiring after some time too. I wonder how lh keeps up her lifestyle. Now, I think that time is always not enough for me to do my stuff, and its not even constructive stuff.
On another note, I've discovered why I don't really dress up much when I go out. (I seem to be making quite a few discoveries these days) So, on my birthday, my dad came to fetch me and my mum for dinner. But prior to that, we made a detour back home because my dad said I should go back home and change into something more comfortable. I was in a dress and heels and I decided that I should go home and change into shorts and t-shirt. Well, I think that pretty much explains that vanity is not really in the genes.
