27-12-2008 (Saturday) "On the Topic of Birthdays Again"

The invasion of technology has made birthdays less meaningful and sincere in the sense that now we don't even do the remembering of others' birthdays but just count on Facebook or Birthday Alarm or your handphone to send that reminder to you that its so-and-so's birthday tomorrow.(Don't deny it now...) Okay, yeah, maybe there are those few REALLY gd friends (or partner... or someone you really look up to {worse still, someone you're sucking up to}) that you actually remember their birthdays but for the rest of those 'other ppl', we just send them greetings because Facebook says it on the right column. DOES take away the fun and that 'special feeling' you get knowing that others actually remember your birthday, right?

... Nevertheless, just receiving those nice, nice greetings just makes you all warm and fuzzy inside, rights? Even if its done out of courtesy. :)

p.s. I don't think I can EVER get sick of sunsets...
