This Birthday.

We can only grow older in life.

This can be stressful if you think and think and think about it over and over and over again.Which is why you need people to remind you that growing old does not necessarily mean giving up the wonderful, carefree side of life.

Besides my family, my circle of close friends has a very short diameter - which is why they are very dear to me.

Since I was 9 years old to this very day, Titts is the friend I would run to when tears flood my eyes - when I'm too embarrassed to show the world the more fragile side of me.

And then there's Bubs and Bloss - the friends that I could relate to in so many ways. They seemed to bring out the best in me with their little excitements and contagious laughter.

It is nice going through life with these girls. They reminded me that no matter how far you've come in life - the best things in life are still free.

This birthday, Titts routine sleepover made me realized how thankful I am to have a best friend who knows me inside out for 14 years and counting. Lighthearted birthday dinner with Bubs and Bloss made me realized that life should not always be taken too seriously. Never mind the fact that they made me wear a tiara on my birthday - I still had lots and lots of embarrassingly fun moments.

We actually had a series of superfun photo shoot in the restaurant (courtesy of Professor Utonium), despite the waiter's genuine look of disbelief. Hahahah. You could bet that this was the one and only time I  could be caught wearing a tiara in a public restaurant :P

I guess once in a while its fun to bring out the 5 year old girl in us :) With or without a tiara on our head, here's to all the ladies reading this blog, and here's to growing old gracefully.
