Elevator scene: Semi-stranger from the office: How are you? Me: Ok! SSFO: You look happy. 🙂 Me: Yeah we’re going out to eat. SSFO: The whole Marketing? Me: Nah, just me and my friends. End scene. I spent the rest of the afternoon smiling feeling so grateful of the people I do have and yeah, I was (and still am) happy. Why did it take a semi-stranger telling me for me to realize that? 😛

Yes, at 23 I have a bucket list. When I told someone about it, he told me it was weird and morbid. I kinda like it. It’s more like a “Things I want to experience in life” list.  It’s a strange smattering of small (Read: Bake red velvet cupcakes) to kinda hard things (Take Pa to an Olympics), and when I finally crossed off ONE thing on the ever expanding list, I felt so happy.

I remember someone asked me a few months ago why I make a big deal out of birthdays. Coz I do. In my own little way, I try to make a person in my life feel as happy as they’ve made me and a birthday is the perfect opportunity to do that. It’s this person’s day for themselves, as they turn a year older. They may resent aging, or hate being the center of attention, but hey, not everything is glass half empty. It can be as simple as a perfectly timed greeting or as elaborate as planning a surprise, it all depends on the person, or the situation. Come…
