Bitter-sweet Birthday

Today was a more bitter, than sweet birthday.

Bitter as my Dad has forgotten clean about it despite reminding us that he was bringing the family out for dinner the day before. I had to call him to remind him of it, and that was awkward.
My family isn't so appreciative of me as well. My sister and brother(they just have to ruin everything) didn't even say a nice word to me all day. My heart felt numb towards their apathy. Only God's love can transform their heart that is the bile.

Now proceeds the good news, I am very happy that my beloved class A302, has managed to surprise me with a rather creamy birthday cake topped with white chocolate glaciers and assorted fruits, and nice clothes which my wardrobes need to fill. Thanks class, though I may appear somewhat nonchalant for the rest of the day, I am deeply appreciative. It is just that sometimes a sort gloom just wishes to press upon me, though I fight it.

Also many thank you's for those who wished me happy birthday and those who did not as well. Am glad that God has placed you in my life :) I also met 2 other people in school who had the same birthday as me, and one of them whom I vaguely know was sitting beside me in Literature Lecture, talk about the uncanny.

This was what I had for dinner, it was extremely filling and delicious, save for the stir fried mixed vegetables. At least it made up for the extremely oppresive car journey to Chinatown at Tam Kah Sharkfin's restaurant.

I am quite irritated as I couldn't upload the pictures onto blogger. The only one I could get was my least favourite dish, stir fried veggies. The top of it is a trace of the creative sesame fried chicken which they stuff shrimps, beancurd into it.
