Turning 21. Oh wait, have turned 21.

Yikes, I always forget to blog on the most important dates and this time is was my 21st birthday!!! Thank you to my friends and family for the well-wishes, presents (I made a wishlist and had it emailed) and ang paos. Wow, turning 21 is so shiok la. Wah, imagine if I could turn 21 every year. (!!!)

I made a small confession at my birthday dinner, something that shocked my mum: I confessed that 2 nights ago (which was the my last night in Tel Aviv, Israel), I drank too much and got drunk. Not dead drunk but definitely the can't-walk-straight-and-finally-puked kind of drunk. I was 30% sober?

My speech didn't come out exactly the way I wanted to, I knew I should have practised it in front of the mirror instead of in my head! I wanted to say thanks to everyone and that while turning 21 makes me officially adult, I have a long way to go, as can see from my one-time-and-should-not-happen-again-ever experience. I admitted, in a blurt out way, that life is going to be pretty much a struggle between me wanting to be God's obedient child and me wanting to try new things that aren't good for me.

Oh yeah, Joshua sent me a bouquet of different coloured roses through delivery. Thanks, they're sweet but please personally give them to me next time. Haha. :)
