bother

Didn't intend to write this down in the first place. But since Miss Best Friend mentioned about this, I shall say something too.

A group of friends sms-ed me 1 week ago:

A: Momo, your birthday is coming. Are you free on 24 May, let's meet and celebrate?
ME!: OK

Awhile later...
A: Momo, are you free on 25 May instead cuz 24 May B is not free.
ME!: OK

Two days later...
A: Momo, can you make it on 1 June? cuz C cannot make it on 25th May.
ME!: Sorry, booked.

One day later...
C: Maureen, when are you free to meet up?
ME!: WAHLOU, BUSY ONE NOT ME LOR. WHEN ARE U ALL FREE??

On the same day...
Miss Best Friend asked me when im free for meetup.

有苦难言啊。。。

A group of friends, used to be so close so close. But everyone has become so busy with their own commitments. Birthdays seem to be the only time they meet each other and catch up with each other.

But sadly, now it seems like burden and troublesome affair. As simple as fixing a timing is becoming a bother that i really just feel like saying: "hey, if we cant meet, it's totally fine. dont have to die die meet and celebrate ok!"

And to buying presents, it is left to one pitiful person buying it. It used to be a group choosing together. But now buying present also becomes a bother.

Perhaps coz we seldom meet and no longer understand what the person needs. Perhaps everyone is so busy that no one really takes time to think about this.

I really pity the organisers and the present buying person. And both happens to be the same person, i really thank her.

Frankly, i no longer see the point of meeting for the sake of doing it. Not that I am greedy and die die need you guys to meet and celebrate birthday. Most importantly, tt was meant to be a get together session.

seriously, i dont need gifts. i just want a happy lunch / dinner together, talking and laughing and shopping and taking photos.

没有诚意的庆祝会变得很没有意义。

But still, i thank you Miss Best Friend for all her sacrifices, for taking trouble to liase, gather information and buy present. for making me feels so special every year. for keeping the flame going even though u have been busy and tired lately.

Here's a big big KISS for u to let u noe that i thanku for everything.
