Forever Twenty-One.
Tuesday, October 27, 2009, 2:22 AM
It's October 27th and I just turned twenty-one.

I wish this moment can last forever and I can be forever twenty-one but I know it's impossible because time passes and everyone moves forward with time, never backwards.

Therefore, at this point in time, I just want to remember this moment and pen down all my feelings so that in the many years to come, when there's a day I feel lost, troubled and confused, I can smile and reminisce how I felt during this time and remember the promises I made to myself on this day and hopefully, feel good about what I've become.

As I take my first step into adulthood, if there is ever a day I lose myself in the process because of how harsh reality is, I just want this post to remind me of who I really am and what makes up me as a person.

Even though I know I might change during the process, be it my perspectives or my characteristics, I would never want to forget who I am.

Deep down within me, I still see a little girl being touched by the love of Prince Eric and Ariel The Little Mermaid when she read that story for the first time and hoping that a fairy tale like hers would come into her life. I just wish to have that pure love of innocence and simplicity within me even though reality will try to change us into something else. It's that feeling I want to keep for the rest of my life be it through childhood, teenagehood or adulthood. We can face many obstacles along the way and we might want to give up, but times like this just keep us going and reminds us of what we really are and what we are capable of.

Be yourself and love yourself for who you are and if you ever feel like giving up, just remember that what doesn't kills you just makes you stronger. :)

If you're someone whom I've lost contact over the years and you're not here by my side to share this moment with me, I'd like to thank you for being part of my life once. If you're a random stranger who have helped me in anyway, thanks for lending that help when I needed it at that moment. If you're someone whom I detest or you detest me equally, thanks for shaping me to what I've become. If you're someone whom I used to love and you used to love me, thanks for giving me your love faithfully and truthfully at that moment. If you're someone who still loves me in anyway and you're still by my side, then I can tell you I will do my best to make you stay and thank you for loving me for who I am and being with me all this while to share this moment with me.

Hopefully, changes I want to make and the improvements I want out of my life will happen and what I've decided to do from now on will make it happen. May everything fall into place and life after twenty-one as an adult will be a smooth-sailing one with a sense of purpose and direction.

Happy 21st Birthday, Yeh Ying. :)
