Birth day
I have officially crossed the quarter-life crisis and cripping towards mid-life today. Alot of thoughts went through my mind... lots. I wondered how God allowed me to live till today, to be fortunate enough to be where I am right now. To be so blessed. Makes me wonder what the hell am I doing here, shield and shelttered from the chaos that's happening all over the world. Guess, I'll write them in a seperate entry from this one :)
I made some Ondeh Ondeh to give away, but i don't really have anyone in mind to give to. Anyway, it was a slow and mild start
as I've slept half the day away. But the journey was simple and starightfoward. It was purpose driven. To buy a birthday present for me. It's not an easy task though, as the shops are mostly closed by the time I woke up.So I walked to the State Cinema at North Hobart to catch a good show instead. It is amongst the oldest cinema here with only one theatre. Still, it's a cool place. You can bring any food into the theatre to eat. They sell wine in glasses at the counter as well. I managed to catch a film at 4pm called Manual of Love (Italian - Manuale d'amore, 2005). Based in romantic Italy, four love stories were cleverly stitched together; about falling in love, about love crisis, betrayal and abandonment.
Nevertheless, it is about love that needs no explainations and no particular reasons to love. Love is just too dynamic to be explained so plainly. Too profound...This is also the second time that I've watched a movie all alone. I told myself I hate that feeling the first time, and I think that feeling's still the same. Reminds me to once again thank the Lord for all the good people that had came into my life all these years and had been such a significant blessing to my little life.
As the sun began to hide his face under the blanket of blue, I found myself walking towards the habourfront. So I've decided to treat myself to a good feast at the very famous Mures
seafood resturant. I must say, they have really lived up to their name! The meal would not be complete without the ice cream that Henry highly praised about and the complimentary chocolate fudge at the end to finish the experience with a note of sweetness in your mouth.The friendly taxi driver took me home within mintues from the resturant and what a pleasant surprise to see presents left at my door by my wonderful housemates... The Ondeh Ondehs were nicely wrapped and given to them, to thank them for completing this birthday.
Thank you too, to those that had sms-ed and had sent your kind wishes via email, prayers and any other means. Or even simply dropping by this site. They are sincerely felt and greatly appreciated.
Goodbye to the teenage label and hello to aging skin, brittle hair, and greater life principles and responsibilites... heh...
Anyway, Life sucks as usual... :P
