I'm trying to start a birthday calendar. One that has the birth-dates for everyone reasonably close to me, including my friends and relatives. I realise that one prerequisite to maintaining your relationships (for at least a few years before it all gets snuffed out lah) is to at LEAST remember their birthdays and wish them...You don't have to buy a birthday gift for them...i'm certainly not going to buy a gift for EVERYONE and go bankrupt, at the most i'll share a gift or something...but even an sms goes a long way.
It's gonna be tough going though...my RI friends are beyond hope already (i think mark's having his bday soon..?) and i've lost my VJC class list..so i'm in deep trouble. My army friends...gone case liao, and as for the others...well i think jane's having her birthday soon..? She mentioned something about national day a very, very long time ago...i've got a whole bunch of Rodeo OG ppl who's birthdays're in October..but i'm not sure about the exact dates. My archives and house comm and rodeo OGLs...gone case liao. Maybe i should've asked kyrin and wenling/lihui and er...sheryl or yuen kay or simin to help me make those a long time over 'cos now i've got no idea how to get those numbers in without going to people 1 by 1.
And for some people i'll have to find out their birthdays without asking THEM because i think, in other people's dictionaries, it would be an absolute
disrgace to forget in the first place. Pretty embarrassing when everybody remembers my 31st december birthday so easily and i don't even send them an sms on THEIR birthdays. I just can't remember the dates!! Haha even my closest buddies i forget too. Ahwell...gotta go now. Will post more later....maybe.
