extended bdays

i love extended bdays. i know it's january but i got to have bday dinners with teddio and diana. together and then separately. haha. i think these bday dinners start to mean more and more as we all get older and busier. i rarely talk to ted one on one these days. same with diana because we both think the other is just too busy. the lack of one on one activities is somewhat true for most friends since we tend to do many group things. due to the fact that most of us spend so much more time on busy jobs and busy school lives, when we do decide to do something social, it's a huge group just to see all the people you missed at the same time. even though i love group events, sometimes it's great to just do a one on one dinner and really talk. not "how's the job" blah blah talk but REALLY talk. about our lives, hopes, dreams and fears.

my new years resolution. do more one on one events - not just on my bday. of course this would be easier if i were in the same state as most my friends. the month of may just cannot come soon enough.
