Wonderstruck
not asking for a second chance
Okay I went to my Uncle's place to celebrate my cousin's birthday today. Everything was pretty nice and all ;) had lotsa food, and my aunt said i've slimmed down which i highly doubt so. -_-

Than my uncle showed me 5 or 6 photo albums which contained mostly photos of myself when i was younger. My dad and mom were still so young man, and I think I look cuter when I was younger. Geeee. From when i was a one-month old baby to when i was 6 to 7 years old. I was in almost all the photos from the albums.

& I saw so many relatives and people who doted on me in the photos from when i was young till now. Especially the ones who are no longer here. The photos proved their existence and how real everything was in the past. I can't recall or remember going to a bungolaw and staying over with all the relatives and family every year, but we did.

& I thought, those were the days they were all happy, not that we aren't happy now. I think I was happy too at that time, as a kid who's less than 2 or 3 years old and having all the adults, and teenage cousins doting on me and all. I think I'm pretty jealous that I had no idea what was going on at that time since I'm pretty sure I couldn't speak or express my happiness well as a 2 year old kid.

Another thing I saw from the photos was that I had huge birthday parties when i was little, from the one-month old birthdays to the 6 or 7 years old ones. Coz' the photo albums had many photos of myself in different ages with different cakes each year. There were always so many cousins and families there to celebrate my birthday! I even saw a picture of my late god-dad who held me when i was a baby. I think my godmom felt nostalgia even looking at the photo too. Her husband who loves and dotes on me so, the god-dad who always brings us to this far-away place for teppanyaki and all.

And I saw so many old photos of my granny and me. When I could still sit on her lap for photo-taking sessions.

Those days were just so precious. I'm very glad they were all so happy and contented with life during those years.

It's just a shame I can't remember them all as I was too young.
Still, I'm so glad I've a chance to be part of the good memories.
Everyone's grown older it seems... Ten years' so fast.

I remembered I used to take my birthday photos behind this same table at this same location when I was six or seven too. HAHA.
Eleven years had passed now, the table hasn't change, but the person has.

Oh that's Rusty the dog;)

The day we all went TOP1 to sing karaoke at bugis. 
I realized we never take many photos of ourselves holding on to the microphones.
The photos are all taken without the mikes!
