Happy Birthday….to myself !

with 21 comments

2oth of March is my birthday :) I’m supposed to draw something up tonight but I’m too tired. I’m still having flu and a lot of phlegms. I think i need to rest very early today. Sorry for not being able to produce comic or drawing these few days. Too tired to think.

Today is quite a funny day. This is the first time in my life that I actually messaged people in MSN and YM to inform them it’s my birthday and they should wish me. Hahahha. I know some of you might think it’s pathetic or weird…..but well, i feel it’s funny and it brighten up my day a little after doing it.

This year, a lot of people forgot my birthday….including some of my closest friends. The girl in the story, used to be the first to call me every year. Not this year. Not even a SMS. Things do change….people too. There’s nothing to blame. Just part of life. :) After all, Malaysia is 8 hours earlier than UK :P

I tried to ask a girl out today (someone i really want to know but is based in UK…a Malaysian) but she’s busy. I was quite disappointed because it was the first time I actually ask someone i hardly know out for dinner. It’s ok…at least i’ve tried. In the end, it’s not so bad. I lost my voice and couldn’t talk…so i stayed home and watch Manchester United beat Bolton by 2 goals. Not bad at all. :) Things can be positive if you want them to be.

Alright, i think i better go and get some sleep. I’ll be away AGAIN for this Easter break. I’m going to Wales this time. I just received confirmation from my manager here that we need to go back to Malaysia in mid April……wayyyy ahead of schedule. I’m bit sad to leave UK actually. Starting to get used to the life here…..and there’s someone that I really wanted to know. But well, fate…again. I donno when will i come back to UK in the future.

As for now…..i have 1 month left in UK before i get to go back to Malaysia and be with my family…..and get a PS3 for myself. :)

Enjoy your Easter break!

  8. Hey man, happy belated birthday! Don’t worry, you’re not the only one who has friends forgetting his birthday! My birthday is on every 31 August, which is as obvious as it gets, and people still forget! I still make my point to remember other people’s birthday, regardless. Get well soon, man.

  9. Hi there. Haven’t been coming online lately. So Happy Belated Birthday!!!!!!

    How are you feeling now?? Better??

  14. Hey Alvin,

    Happy Belated Birthday! I know how it feels … most of my friends have forgotten my birthday too. But somehow through the years, I have found it to be quite mellow … not really a sad thing, I guess it’s because we’ve matured so much over time that birthdays become less of a necessity :P (for me, at least)

    Hope you had a good one though! :)

    @ mark

    @ The Big Movie Freak

    @ seaqueen

    @ pikey
    thanks :)

    @ Apple

    @ fizah
    hahaha, i won’t ask for that much – all happiness be mine. :P just enough will do for me and leave the rest for others.

    @ jjme
    another perspective is — ppl around us have matured a lot and are older now….thus memory not so good already :P
