Time's Up

So I'm seventeen now \o/ thank you everyone for the amazing day: Jieshi + Justin + Ja + Enoch + Nic for the present and card, Sean for the talk, Chubin for the card and origami thingyyy, Farren for the present, Sheryl for the drink treat, Hao for the lift surprise etc :D plus all the people who wished me one way or another :)

Had a tragic time learning how to swaveboard in the heat. Got an elbow injury which sucks cause I can't straighten/bend it or it'll hurt like hell so I have to keep it permanently at an approximately 90-degree angle :| hurts like a bitch when it touches water too. Sigh. And the bruises on my legs are... amazing. But I bruise easily so then again, yeah. And then there was the feverrr but hey at least I got to skip school today :)

All in all, it was great ^^v about my birthday resolution... not sure if I'll manage to live up to it though hahaha. There hasn't been a chance to test it out yet though lol :o but it'll come.

But see, I knew you could do it :) I believed in you. I still do. The only thing I can always place my bets on when it comes to you, really, is your determination and pride and competitiveness, which is why I'm not surprised at all. Congratulations :')

“Some people can just move on, you know. They mourn and cry and then they’re done with it or at least appear to be. But to me, I don’t know. I didn’t want to fix it; I didn’t want to forget it. It wasn’t something that was broken, it was just something that happened. And I’m finding ways, everyday, of working around it. I’m respecting and remembering it, but I’m getting along with my life at the same time.”
