I was not updating for the past few days because I was happy celebrating my birthday! This breaks my streak, but guess what, who’s really checking? I’m super happy about how I have learnt how to manage my own expectations about myself, including how to tell myself to chill out if I don’t do something I’ve set out to do.
I mean I have already been able to run the marathon distance. I’ve already read more than 52 books this year. I have been writing consistently for a good amount of time, and now I’m also getting my work properly put together for the coming Singapore Art Book Fair. So it’s all coming along nicely. Just because I missed three days of writing here doesn’t mean the world is going to end. I am okay with that.
The past few days has been a fun time. I went camping with Clarice and Mark, and my parents crashed for lunch on both days. Wallace came along too. It rained out in the middle of the night, so that was pretty darn fun. It was so pleasantly cooling, but just before the rain, I was sweating buckets through and through.
When we got home, I spent most of the day playing games actually. Just having a ton of fun. What else would you want to do on your birthday?
Also, this is the last birthday without a baby. Who knows how the next few years of birthday will be, but I just know it will not be the same. Not that we can’t do the same things we did this year, but it just would be a change for myself to go through. One year at a time ey?
