18

I was studying for my upcoming papers from scratch and didn’t realise that it was already past 12 midnight until the first birthday greeting of the day came in via email.

Alright, so I’m 18. This means I wouldn’t have to worry about any purchase restrictions when I make future trips to Japan, except for alcohol. I can buy that now in Singapore anyway, but it’s not like that matters since I seldom drink.


Not

Bah, this sucks. It’s back to more mugging and heading to school when I wake up later. It’s going to be like any other day, just that on a regular weekday, I would be playing away instead of straining my brain cells and trying to overload myself with information.

This birthday serves as a point to reflect upon my life. Lately, I’ve had some thought regarding the way my life is now and where it’s heading towards. I’m not really satisfied at where it’s heading. I think I’ve got to start putting some action in place.

I used to enjoy birthdays when I was younger, but now I don’t really seem to care much about it anymore. Guess this happens when you grow up? Or maybe it’s just me.

Till next year then.

    =O Happy 18th Birthday double! =] Whoah you’re so young.. yeah, I find that birthdays does get more dull as the age increases. But then again you’re just 18 – there’s still the grand 21st in another 3 years’ time! Anyhow, do enjoy yourself on this special day of yours!

    congrats on the 18 years get.

    time flies. i remember seeing your post early this year after your trip to japan on how u can’t wait to turn 18 so that u won’t feel shy going into health care stores.

    18 is a meaningful age so please do something wild and crazy to preserve as a everlasting memory of youth.

  23. 23 usagijen

    Don’t be jaded about birthdays now, if each year marks having grown up not only in age but in other facets of your life (gaining wisdom and all that jazz), then it’s all the more reason to be be happy and celebrate!! =D

    Happy Birthday!! :3

  24. 24 alafista

    Tanjoubi omedetou. Does that mean you are no longer shota?

    I keep getting the feeling that I’m one of the old uncles on the blogging scene. You guys are just so young!

  25. 25 Leefe

    Yeah I think bloggers nowadays are getting pretty young; I’m 18 and year 2 into poly too!

    Double, which poly are you from? :P

    I FAILED. The mail office in my university is closed for the Thanksgiving break and I can only claim my copy of LEFT 4 DEAD at the end of this week.

    OTL

  34. 34 double

    It seems like many people thought that I was much older than I really am. LOL

    Crest > At least I don’t look Shota in any way, other than my height.

    The Sojourner > WHY!!!?! Oh well, it’s not like I’m playing much now anyway. Let’s play together after my exams are over.

  35. 35 Anime

    It’s usual.. the more you grow up, the lesser you enjoy celebrating your birth days.
    Anyways, Belated wishes to you!!
