生日快樂/birthday blog!

well my birthday was yesterday, the 22nd :) and ... i wouldn't say it was amazing but it definitely wasn't bad. a bunch of people said happy birthday right at 12 haha and counting down and stuff and that was pretty cool. I think the main thing I got out from my birthday is that I should really just be thankful to be alive. This 17th birthday marks 17 years that God has kept me alive and everyday, minute, second etc just becomes so much more precious. This really reminds me of a song called "愛得太遲" or literally translated to "love too late" and it's a pretty sad song i would say about people being too busy with things and in the end, you get caught in the business that when you find yourself in a situation you realize you should've shown more love but now it's too late. :( but i guess that doesn't have too much to do with my birthday ahaha but at the end of my birthday, i just realized that i shouldn't be worrying about the things i will explain to you, but rather be appreciative of just being alive at all :)
well i guess my birthday was full of ups and downs. one minute i would be so happy because it seemed like people cared and were wishing me happy birthday and everything. and the next it was not so good... cause i felt like people were too busy to care about my birthday/i thought they were good enough friends to be like YAY salina hbd. i think the biggest thing was my girl friends that i hang out with most.. i guess i just expected them to be the most like "yay happy birthday :)" and perhaps i expected too much. but i feel like they didn't put much effort in it either though. a lot of them are too busy i think... i don't know >___< surprisingly though, the guys really surprised me. all of them that counted down/waited til 12 were guys and who was on til 12 forgot that past 12 it was my bday so didn't say anything lol but that's okay i do that too. it's just interesting how it was more guys... i think it's just cause i have lower expectations of the guys than the girls so it seems like the guys were doing mroe than girls. but i think it's also fair because the girls know me more/are closer so you would expect them to be like happy birthday! whereas the guys ... never expect them to do anything hahaha but it really opened my eyes i suppose... that they are def deeper than they can appear but maybe are too loser to show it :P and that's cool haha. another lesson learnt, i am definitely thankful for those guy friends even when i get totally bullied by them. so overall i will have to say it was a good birthday. I think just those little snipets of happiness when people did things for me sum up to something pretty good and i should really just be looking at those highlights. so thanks everyone for making my birthday amazing!
