SO...
I turn 20 today, and so far, I've spent most of being 20 in the OFFICE, in front of the computer screen, trying to beat a DEADLINE, wanting to curse Microsoft Word and Excel to oblivion, worrying over whether I've upset one of my bosses because MICROSOFT SUCKS AND CRASHED AND MADE ME TAKE AGES TO DO MY WORK and subsequently whether I screwed up my chances for carrying on my internship, hating Siam Cement Public Co., Ltd. because they have WAY TOO MANY subsidiaries and affiliates and they don't bother to post clearly how many PERCENTAGE shares they hold in each of their companies.
All in all, it's been a rather uneventful day.
Thanks to my weight, there will be no birthday cake, though my mom promises an unedible substitute and presents. Since I'm in hiding from friends due to said weight, there will be no parties.
And it looks like my dad has lots of work so he'll be home late. On my birthday. And only he, my mom, and I were gonna celebrate together. So what are my mom and I gonna do now?
*sighs*
This must be one of the most banal birthdays I've ever had. There was no excitement leading up to it, and the day itself was as plain as the any. And yet, it's supposed to carry some measure of significance because I've just shifted up one more digit and my age no longer ends with a "'teen".
Ah well.
At least I'm one year closer to drinking legally in Thailand :).
(Not that it makes a difference, since I don't like to drink anything heavier than Bacardi Breezers or cocktails.)
