At first i didn't quite want to have a birthday party. I frequently asked myself questions:
"What is the true meaning of celebrating a 21st birthday with such a big group?"
"Am i happier with a big group celebrating it with me or do I prefer a smaller, more cosy kind of celebration?"
"What is the point of celebrating it in the first place anyway?"
Well, i guess i have found my answer:
It is a celebration of our friendship that we have shared throughout the years of hardships and to remember the times that we had so much fun with each other. And most importantly, to continue to keep in contact with each other as we move on with life.
Last night was the most happening and smashing(literally smashing into a pole) birthday party for me. Filled with non stop fun and its touching moments. I must first thank God that it didnt rain that night because i was really worried.
It turned out that not only was the sky clear and cooling, it seemed like i was the only person having bbq in that whole area = as if i had booked the whole coasta sands. lolx ^_^
The food was a great success too! The chunky otahs, kopi chicken wings, satays, delicious fried rice, sting ray and absolut mango. hohoho. You can trust me to have good food cuz im a food-fan too. hahaa

Features an abstract- floral digital artwork drawn by me in photoshop. This layout is appropriate for all genders. The grandiose design is laid freely on a simple canvas and they complement each other pretty well. The sudden gradient change is applied to create one contrasting element. I created a 3D effect on the vines and they seem to jut out of the yellow canvas.
Why the name? The design, as you can see, is abstract and it gives a double-vision feel, therefore, Esophoria, a tendency to squint your eyes inward to create a double vision.
