Martha's Birthday

Since my high school days, I'd usually be celebrating post-Christmas at Martha's home. Well, Martha was my classmate since nursery and the 26th happens to be her birthday. This year, I was invited to her home where her birthday will be celebrated with family and friends.

A buffet dinner was prepared at the garden. The breeze was chilly and the zen surroundings were calming. Seated by the veranda were Martha's uncles singing old songs (from the 60s?) as one of them strummed the guitar. I was glad to see familiar faces which brought back memories from years past.

Martha will leave tomorrow for London. I will miss her but I'm glad that we were able to spend time with each other. This is what girlfriends do, don't they?
