Peiming, my pianist friend (I seem to have many musician friends now - the girls in my cooking group include a pianist, a trumpet player and a cellist), organized a small gathering last Sunday to celebrate my new year of life.
It was a little embarrassing to have a party in my honor and to not have to bring anything but a video tape for some entertainment. I rented "Chasing Amy" but we didn't really get to watch it because we were all too busy talking and then eating cake and ice-cream.
I feel really lucky that I got some neat presents on top of a being at such a fun party with good friends. A computer game - Half-Life, linked to Counterstrike, so that I may indulge my tomboy and killer instincts; a Somerset Mall voucher, so that I may indulge my occasional feminine habits; a silver necklace, small enough for my small neck (yay!); an Italian cookbook from my cooking group mates (I suspect they already have some requests); and a beautiful art book with pictures by M.C. Escher.
