Definition of independence
I had longed to be independent in various ways since young. Financially independent, physically independent, emotionally independent... I believe all these are traits of successful career women across the globe, and yearn to be one of them in future. It's a good thing to be independent people would say, bcos dependent people are thought to be inferior and lack confidence.
Lately, I've realised that it's not such a good thing to be fully independent, though people may think independence is how one shapes and maintains it. When you feel frustrated, stressed, sad or happy, you will need someone to share that feeling with you. It'll be a torture without someone being there to support you whenever they can, be it friends or family members. Maybe I don't have what it takes to be independent yet, or maybe I'm just dependent by nature. All these maybes make me doubt my ability, however, my standpoint of having someone beside you when you need it still lies.
Everyone needs friends, or at least the support of family members to pull you out of any difficulties/crisis. The world is still beautiful after all troubles subside. Without anyone to grab you when you are falling is really terrible, and instead of feeling you yourself fall, you may feel that the whole world is falling down on you instead. We all need that little bit of space to express our emotions and our thoughts. Bottling things up will make one all tied up, and even though on the surface that person may appear happy, it may not be so once they're alone in their own world.
To all people out there, listen to what your friends/family members have to say. Give them that bit of freedom to express their feelings. It might be too late when you realised they're fraught with troubles too much to handle.

I'm officially 21!!!
Oh yeah..Yesterday was fun, though I was down with a stupid flu..Haha...
I went out with Shermin in the afternoon, and we had Sizzler's. I had to control myself from eating too much, for the sake of leaving some space in my stomach for the big thing at night. Well anyway everything was so fun, Shermin and I had some fun shots taken in Sizzler's too. After that we went shopping around Suntec and Marina Square, and I got something from both shopping malls. Shermin was the one who tempted me to stroll into MNG, cos as usual I'm a blind bat and she was the one who pointed to MNG b4 I realise there's one at Suntec haha. Cos b4 lunch we already planned to visit Dorothy Perkins and Topshop, thus my aim was there and wasn't looking elsewhere. But how glad was I, cos I managed to get a black translucent number that looks so great I can't resist buying it. It was well worth the money though some ppl may think it's extravagant spending so much bucks on a piece of material so thin. Well anyway it was fun shopping, also got a pale pink skirt at the newly renovated Marina Square shopping centre.
After bitching ard with Shermin for a few hrs, it was time to meet my sistas, and how cunning can they get. I shall explain that later, haha. Ok as planned, we went to Kuishinbo. Wah, the queue was super long and I think we queued for like 2 hrs if I'm not wrong? Ok let's fast forward the queuing part and get down to the actual dinner. We chiong to get food as soon as we got a table, cos by that time it was already 8 plus and it closes at 10pm, so we had to grab whatever that was left on the buffet line. Ok we got what we wanted, but in the end we can't finish it haha. Right, just as we were about to finish all the food, a staff's voice came on the speakers, and I heard my name!! Wahaha..Not as if I was surprised, but ok lah the feeling was rather good, and soon after, the birthday cake came (For ur info the cake was from NYDC hor! Haha, thanks ladies, I really appreciate the effort made!). So we blew out the candles and all, and I relented by adhering to their request of picking the candles out using my mouth. Got proof 1 hor, show u all the photos later. Haha..After the cake was finished, and almost everything was done, the final part came. Unwrapping my present! Haha..It was in a carrier lah, so when I opened it, I saw a bag of Tommy Hilfiger stuffs, those miniature perfumes, body lotion and stuffs like these. One of my fren then cried out "Eh, why the present different?", or something similar lah I can't remember haha..She then "pretended" to call her fren asking why the present is different from what they wanna give me (they claimed it's the fren who wrapped the present), but obviously the "fren" didn't pick up mah, cos she didn't even make the call at all. Haha..So I was like eating my cake and fiddling with stuffs on the table, ignoring their silly acts cos I knew they did get my present after all haha..My fren den digged inside another one of my fren's bag and presented the present to me. Tada, DKNY Be Delicious!! OMG, I had wanted that for so long! Thanks again gals! U all really make my day man!
Second part of the night, clubbing!! I'm so touched cos one of my fren who dun club at all decided to join us after much presuasion. Hehe..Went Newsroom 1st cos Dbl O like super long queue. After we entered Newsroom we then realised what was the heck all about at Dbl O, cos Dbl O is still Ladies' Night on Wed, while Newsroom changed from Ladies' Night to Bottles Night. Omg, what the freak, that totally spoiled my mood. But it's ok, I got a jug of Lime Vodka and we shared. By right it's called sharing lah, but by left I think I almost downed half the jug, cos b4 that we were just doing casual sipping of the alcohol and chit chatting, but b4 we abandoned Newsroom for Dbl O, we decided to play fingers guessing. One of my fren dun drink at all, so I was the one kena sabo-ed. When that fren lose, I must drink, on top of drinking too when I lost. I was fine with it though, cos I tot that bit of alcohol can't kill me. Haha..So I kept downing half the time cos I kept losing, and my fren who can't drink kept losing too. After Dbl O I'm like half zonked out when I'm in the cab, but still holding on, and I felt terrible cos I was super full, what with the buffet and big swoshs of alcohols jumping ard my stomach.
Fast forward to today morning. I woke up with a throbbing headache and contemplated getting an MC haha. But I went to work after all, and felt terrible with my tasteless tongue and irritating headache. Yesterday was a day well-spent though, and I won't forget you Wendy Tan! U stepped on my heels and caused the strap to come off, and what's more it's the first time I'm wearing it, and it's part of my mum's birthday present to me!! Arrgghh...
Oh yah in case I forgot, the link for my Bday party pics are here: Click me!!
