I was 12 once…

Posted in: 2009 posts | Birthday | Delayed Rebellious Phase (Cringeworthy) | Me. | NaBloPoMo | Random-ness | School

Before "I turned 21" this year, I was 12 once…
After some hush-hush conversations happening behind the place I sat in class, I realised my Primary 6 classmates were doing this… Writing birthday wishes and messages for me.  Everything was put inside that jar-bottle thing.

It was one of my memorable birthday gifts. I thought it was really sweet. I get to keep all the ‘tiny memories’ they made for me.


& then there’s one random note, which is true! 
I was lucky to know them!





Some birthday wishes included the “5A in UPSR” messages. (This is not the full collection.)
So. Apart from the usual “Happy Birthday” wishes, I had quite a few wishing (telling) me to smile always. I’m afraid that’s so true – I seldom smile… Or maybe it’s more like (I do smile) but my reactions to everything is so apparent on my face that you can easily tell if I’m pissed of by someone. Hmmm.
I didn’t smile much when I was little too which is evident from these photos…


If you’re wandering what’s that yellow thing I was wearing, it’s a plastic bag. If I remember correctly, I had thought that it looked cool to wear one (& my cousin and I were role-playing, I think it was supposed to be a costume.)

Okay, last one… the weird ones.
Joel’s message wasn’t ‘original’. I suspect he’s writing the monkey-kangaroo-zoo birthday song. Dianne wrote me a “Happy New Year” message (that’s 3 months away!).

Can you guess which birthday wish is my favourite?
(Favourite as in I-can’t-believe-that-person-wrote-that! & no it’s not E.E.’s)
=P
