It felt like anything could happen, and it was going to last forever...
It started to rain at about 11.45am, the sky was tinted gray with little spots of white. The winds were blowing in strong and cooling. Raindrops made patches of wet splats everywhere.
I was praying hard in my room, hoping that it will end soon, and let it be clear in the evenings. I was sitting around the room with much difficulty, and the book wasn't enough to keep me occupied. Nothing was.
Since my brother was on the computer, I had to put myself into something else to distract myself. I helped with kitchen stuff for a while, and only a while. Then, I decided to just sit down and watch some TV, while consistently stealing glances at the wide open sky, praying that the rain will stop and sky will clear.
Everything went well from there. The rain stopped around 4pm, and the food arrived 10 mins after. The amount of food stacked up on each other were just about the right amount to feed a crowd of 20 people. 20 hungry people.
After settling a few last minute shopping for extra marshmallows, we were ready to hit the floors. The fire was started, and within 15 minutes, it was blazing hot and was rolling off the pit. People started to stream in after 6.30pm, and frank ling speaking, even though I only had Jasmine with me, and most of the guest were actually friends of my uncle or sister. It didn't felt that bad.
It wasn't awkward at all as I walked around talking to some, thanking them for coming. Food was great, people were great, Dad didn't try to be bossy, and most things were actually going the way I was planning it to be. Things were going great! People loved the food, someone managed to buy beer, and didn't get stopped, the cake was HUGE!!! And it was chocolate based with lots of fruits on top!!!
It felt like anything could happen and it was going to last forever. The pleasant air of sweet smelling happiness was everywhere.
I kept screaming "I'm officially 21, legally allowed to drink alcohol and no one can stop me!!!!"
And my mom didn't stop me(:
Even though I had to keep myself in check that my actual birthday is on Tuesday, I was happy for things to have happened.

2AM - A Friend's Confession
It's been a while, since my heart has been changed
Since I've been dealing with this loneliness
Everytime you came back, I hated the guy who made you cry
I'd rather protect you,
Though I don't know if it'll make it better
This time I'll hold you, and love you is what I thought
Baby, come to me now and be my lady
I've watched you for so long,
I just stood there not saying a word and hiding my pitiful heart
As a friend, and to remain as friends
I had to push the confession down my throat
But I'll confess to you now,
I love you
you held my hand, and said you only have me
Keeping me as a friend, you said its a real blessing
Whenever you say "Let's not change."
I had to push my feelings down
It might be best if I protected you,
Not knowing if it'll make it better
I keep hearing it, but I kept it cool
I was too scared to lose you but
Baby, come to me now and be my lady
I've watched you for so long,
I just stood there not saying a word and hiding my pitiful heart
As a friend, and to remain as friends
I had to push the confession down my throat
But I'll confess to you now,
I love you
