Birthday love

Dear Self,

How have you been? It has been a year since we last had a heart-to-heart talk. Another year, ey?

Time really flies. It seemed like yesterday that you had your dinner with the girls at Zanmai. This year, same group of girls but at Pitstop Cafe, instead. Looked like you had a great time, with them surprising you with a birthday and song...



They gave you extra candles, even! Haha! But hey, that did not matter, did it? You were just stoked with the surprise, as you thought it was only a normal gathering with them. The night was filled with happy laughter and lots of hot gossip, leaving you in tears of silly laughter and appreciation.

Another staff member left you this in the office, as well:


Unfortunately, you could not bring this to Sydney with you. But wow, second year in a row you have a bouquet of pink roses as a present! Touching...

Upon your return to your North Strathfield home, you had a sparkly blue birthday card with Malaysian postage stamps. Aw, one of the teachers posted a card not knowing that you would be home during your special day. How sweet! Looks like you have another card to add to your collection on the wall. Apparently, you still have another one on the way...

Your friends, Sonia and Brent of Nutrition 101 also gave you something, did they not?


You seem to like the cutlery set in the trademark Herbalife green. Well, you like the chopsticks the most, really.

I hear your housemates are bringing you out for dinner this weekend, too. Oh, and one of them is treating you to a pedicure session. Haha, I wonder if you would let that happen...

In case you did not already know, you are a lucky girl to have so much love in your life. Your housemates protect you feverishly, your staff members care about you, your mentors look out for you and your family just loves you to bits. Does not look like you have anything to complain about...

... except for perhaps the supposed watch or Victoria's Secret present someone promised...

Do take care and enjoy the rest of 2010. And when I say take care, I mean take care, really. You are your most important person and no one can take you away from yourself.

Yours truly,
Your other self
XOXO
