You know you are 21 when...

1) Your parents start to tell you about the money you can get from the government

2) The people at the box office don't ask you for your ID when you watch R21 movies

3) You can declare proudly, and legally "I am an adult already!" when your parents treat you like a baby.

4) You start to think practically about your future vocation.
5) You have to vote in elections.

6) The government really deposits money into your bank account.

Yay!

I'll take the chance to also thank all those who celebrated my 21st with me, and showered me with plenty of presents.

I have a few surprises here and there...

First up, I got a pre-birthday celebration with some of my church buddies who couldn't make it for my actual one. Thanks Yangyang and JM for the treat!

Now.. My JC Classmates!

My 04a3a classmates actually remembered my birthday! :) And we celebrated together at Fish & Co. Thanks for the angbao gift guys. Heh heh.

Also, I met up with an ex-secondary school friend in school for lunch and he surprised me with a small gift!

Esther, despite her being in London, managed to give me another gift (a precious moments ceramic thingy with jelly beans inside) by getting my 'gan1 die1' to pass it to me during my bday week.

And the best of all things...
2 of my girlfriends whom I said I've missed during my previous post, sent me something from Australia and France (where they're at now) and I received them just this Monday and Tuesday.

What my girlfriends wrote in their letters/cards were sooooo moving. In their cards, they reminisced about the good old days and the silly things we would do.

I feel like tearing already.

JC life could have been a disappointment and a regret if it wasn't for them.

I always thank God for them :)
