Selamat Hari Jadi!

Today, I've just turned into the ripe old age of 17. =)

Not that I'm all that excited, I passed most of the day by sitting on my arse and letting it get nice and warm. XD

In the words of the great House in the series House M.D.: "Man, I didn't think that the planet would make it round the sun this year, but...*sigh* if it just wasn't the 'Planet-That-Could'..."

Most people celebrate their birthdays to celebrate another year alive. I'm not too sure what I celebrate it for seeing as I don't really think about death all the time and think 'wow, this just could've been my last year'.
Apparently, people used to have large gatherings of friends and family during their birthdays because they believed that evil spirits of young children who did not get to live to see their first birthdays would come back and revenge their bad luck on these lucky souls. I reckon if that was the case, they'd be hunted down every minute of their life. XD But that's not for me to dispute after years of superstition.

Y'know, my resolutions from the New Year have changed so much as to receive a new type up altogether. =)
So they'll be let public here:

1. To get 75% and over in all my subjects this year for matric. [go figure me, I've already lowered my standards. XD]
2. To earn enough money to fly back to Malaysia via the cheapest airline I can find
3. To gain entrance into either UWA or ANU for university.

So yup, thus are my resolutions. =)

The lights dimmed slightly, giving the place a slightly eery shadow. Peering in the deep black abyss, she saw her life's work before her, rolling down like credits after a TV show. Final and ending each day. She opened her mouth, took a large breath to calm herself. She could do this. She raised her chin: Thank you for being on the Michelle Watch with us, I'm Michelle Wong, goodnight.
