2 days time i'll be 21..
this 20 years of life has been a roller coaster. there were so many good times, so much of laughter and so much of love in between. though there was hurt and pain along the way, i have learned to understand and let it all go.
when i was a kid, dad used to say i was addicted to "Poove Sempoove", they had to play the song every single night in order for me to sleep. until one night the tape just stopped working..Wahahaha...and he had to sing the song to put me to sleep..each time he mentioned that story, i won't forget the special love and sparkle in his eyes. i love him so much. and surprisingly, that song has an impact on me each time i hear it. i always tend to remember his sparkling eyes. he gave me everything i wanted. though sometimes he couldn't give me what i needed, i still love him.

Mum, she was always the hard-headed strong one who gave me only what i needed. she worked very hard to make me the person i am today. talking about it now makes me wanna cry. she loved and cherished me in a very different yet special way. i don't know what life would have been without her, cause there was never a time she left us stranded. even when her world was crumbling, she picked us up and held us through. mum's my pillar of strength.
soon i'll be 21, i just wish to continue being happy, loved and cherished. may more great things come by..
