when time and confusion collide

the name is vanessa but everybody calls me van. estranged ex-NJCanoeist of 2004/05 K2-500m. I'm a WSO (FIGHTER) trainee and I'm doing my BA(Hons) English and Politics in the University of York. I like fast cars, literature, art and tulips. I cannot cook. When I was younger I wanted to be an astronaut. I am hopeless at math or anything remotely related to formulae. I detest parsley. I love the colour burgundy. My Macbook is my bestfriend and I've played with Macs since I was 15 so no, I didn't jump on the bandwagon. I have lofty dreams but I'm often afraid to chase them. I don't get angry I get disappointed. I intend to learn Spanish and German. Oh, and I think Liverpool kicksmajorass - I am not a fair-weathered fan. I think ambiguity is beautiful.

AAARGH! THANK YOU ALL OF YOU FOR TODAY!! I'm really damn touched by all the effort you guys put in for the Botanic Gardens thingy. Initially, wasn't really hyped up by my birthday but I must say you people really made me a happy sunshiney girl :) Yeah, the night before, I was still nonchalantly watching my DVDs and I practically forgot about the birthday till Thong msged at midnight sharp. (Yes, so punctual huh?) Followed by Ginana, James, Shiyin, Ben, Dad, Mom, Lingypoo, Tom, Huimin. Of course how could I forget, Terri, Dav, Bea, Mel, Yif, Henry, Mo, Sam for the celebration :) Plus weejinnn for the dinner treat!

Apart from all that, the gifts really touched me too, but just seeing all of you put in the effort was gratifying enough. Thanks also to Justin, Szewei, Thong for chipping in with Terri for the bag! Speaking of Terri, ya thanks jiejie for everything today. When we took 51 from Alexandra Hospital, I didn't know that the bus ride would take THAT long but I'm just glad that we had the time to catch up.. seems like ages since we last spent that long together ya. Am very amused by your tales of childhood. Be careful of the toilet bowls, and I'll need you to look out for cars for me again in the future :P

FINALLY 18, and lovin it so far!
