10 years ago!

so it is December. the final month of the year. the last reminder to do anything before the next term begins. it also happens to be the month of birthdays.
i have a million friends who are celebrating their 'happy' birthdays this month. toping the list is yours faithfully, Moi
so i am a year older to most of my class mates. (only technically coz i was born in the last month of the prevoius year!!!). i cant believe that it is time for another birthday, another day where people will make you aware of how much older you are than them(thanks guys), a day to sit and think of all the birthdays you have had and how life has changed .
that is excatlly what i am going through right now.
1 st year: dont get worked up..... i obviously dont remember anything. my dad said it was important coz there was a big fight at home which stopped any kind of clebrations....poor me.:(
7th: was in first standard.... remember distributing red coloured chocolates to my class' I D'. since i had an excess, my teacher (i wonder how she is) made me give all the students two each.
8th: wore a red 'extra frills' frock.... my fav till today... refused to go home with auto uncle and waited for daddy at school. dad as usual forgot and i sat in school till five alone..... after see me cry, watchman took me to teacher and then someone came from home. first time i was ditched!!! (that too on my birthday)
9th: my best birthday. had the biggest birthday party till date. had all the dance students over at my place and a cake shaped 9!
13th: my first teen year.... man was that "not" a joy ride! cant remeber anything specific except that i could not wear coloured clothes anymore at school and had a weird premoniation of doom...for some strange reason i believed that i will not live past my 16th birthday and will die of some tragic disease!!!( i can the smirk!!!)
16th: shit... suddenly i was 16 and did not die, so i extended the "dead"line to ummmm..about say 21!!!!! my last birthday at school.
17th: grey salwar, lots and lots and lots and lots of gifts!!!!!! go college life!!
18th: first suprise party ever!!! wooooohoooo. became an adult!!!! could get married and had found the pefect dude.( FYI, he's still perfect, though other men might have made an impression!)
20th: spent the day practising for snakes and ladders!
21:?????????: remember the premonitaion!
cant believe how time flies! 10 years ago i 10 and ten years later i will be 30! but every birthday is just another day. a reminder to live the fulest before it slips away.so the next time a birthday comes around, think what you will be doing years from now on this very date. its fun.
every one seems to remind me how old i am getting. but i truly believe that you are as old as you think you are. so you could be a 20 year old man who is just sporouting a moushe for everybody, or the same 'young' boy that you will always remain for those who matter. happy birthday.
