21st December 2007

I turned 26 on this day. Didn't do much. Spent time at home receiving wishes over the phone. Spent some more time online and checked out my Orkut scrapbook as well to reply to those who had wished me. Some of them did wish because they saw the birthday reminder on Orkut. Others did so because they remembered. You normally are able to differentiate between the two.

Couple of pals called up the next day as they were either traveling or had too much on their mind to attend to (Bakri-Id was also celebrated that day). It didn't bother me. Just glad they called.

Spent quite a bit of time by myself introspecting on where I was headed. What I had become. What I was doing to myself. What I was doing to others.

Nothing like some quiet time to yourself to just have it hit you smack on the forehead. Frustration at the amount of time it's taking to get back on the job. Loss of patience, which was one of my stronger points earlier. Takes very little to snap at someone now. Almost like I'm waiting for someone to commit an error and then leap to rip that person to shreds.

I like listening to sad songs now. I've got plans for new year with my friends to go out to one of the beach shacks for a party. Got incredible number of weddings to go for in this month and in the next couple of months ahead as well.

Seems like a farce.
