i celebrated my birthday over the last weekend. and strangely, turning one year older seems to hold less and less appeal for me with each passing year.

but birthdays should be celebrated still for no other reason than the fact i get to hang out with pals from a not so distant past and cement newer friendships.

anyway, on to the main purpose of this post.

thanks a zillion to the following for taking time/trouble to buy me stuff:

1. my brother for a squash racket
2. marc, yorick for AX belt
3. defu, leifeng for a bottle of red
4. jerzy(diaokia), chongyi(rasmus) for CK shirt

and my folks for cash even though im so old already.

finally, to the rest of you. shame on you for not buying me anything! just kidding.

have a great CNY. i will be back after the midterms.
