How I spend the day I was born

Like the previous year, I was fortunate enought to be able to spend my birthday with my parents and secondary friends in Malaysia. This year I had quiet an extraordinary birthday.
On August 10th, as I am still a teenager and would not sleep till past 12 midnight, I spend the last few minutes of the day surfing the net and playing around Facebook. By that time, some of the birthday wishes had already started to flow into my Facebook account wall. Realizing that I was relatively tired, I decided to reply those few birthday messages that I had before going to bed.
The next morning, I woke up at 5.30am since I promised my father that I would accompany him for a morning cycle around our area. After the cycle, we returned to the house and my father knowing me said: go back up and have a nap.
I did go upstairs to my room but what I didn't do was to have a nap, I spend the next few hours reading a storybook and later my mum came into my room and told me it was time for breakfast.
Having eaten my breakfast, I returned to my room to continue with the book and eventually felt asleep after my physiological hypoglycemia kicked in. My mother then woke me up to change and get ready to have lunch with my grandmother.
After half an hour drive all the way down to Shah Alam to pick my grandmother up, we had lunch with my aunt,a friend of both my mother and my aunt and last but not least my grandmother. We had fishhead noodles which was a little different from the norm but I would not want to dwell on that.
Then, my mother who remembered that having a massage by a masseur is one of my wishes, she decided to bring me to a reflexology center and there was where I enjoyed one and a half hour of full body massage for the first time of my life.
Upon returning home after that, since my pre-discussed dinner to meet up with a friend of mine who just reached KL from east Malaysia to visit some friends was postponed, I had nothing to do that night. My parents decided to bring me out for dinner and since I requested to have seafood for dinner, my parents brought me to a restaurant near to Kuala Selangor.
After enjoying a fullfilling dinner, we decided that it was time to head home as my parents are used to having to sleep early. And with that, my birthday has come to an end.


These few days, I realized that my holidays are nearing the end on a very fast pace.
Knowing this, my heart seems to have acquire a heavy burden that I have to leave those whom I love and cherish only to return the next year with the webcam being the only way we can see each other. I am really going to miss all of my friends and my family.
Coming back this time, I had a fairly different holiday as I had a very busy schedule which consist of going down to Singapore and up to Kapas Island, meeting up with more friends this year, and I was especially happy to be able to have an outing with my best friend where we spent almost 2 hours just talking. That talk really relieved me of a lot of matters.
I really hope that friendships can really last like those I see some of my friend have or those that we see in the movies.
