A year before the big three-oh

I really didn't want to celebrate my birthday. No. 1, gusto kong magtipid. No. 2, next year na lang in time for the Big Three-Oh. No. 3, I'll be at the hospital with Nana on my actual birthday so I want to save my energy for her.

First to greet me were my officemates. They knew I was taking leave on Monday (my actual bday) so they gathered around my workstation on Friday afternoon and presented me with the usual hong bao and gift. They gave me me a very sexy game board called "Fun in Bed" with matching game cards and feathers and stockings hahah. Do I have "sex maniac" written on my forehead? I felt it was my Hen Night while they were all watching me open the gift. But it was cute though. I do hope Jun and I will be able to use it, despite the complicated instructions haha.

So after work on Friday, I was such in a good mood (shempre weekend na eh), Jun and I met up with Miller and Lori for some bowling. I basically squandered my $15 because my game sucked big time. But who cares, bowling was never really my thing.

On Saturday night, Shaf visited my place and brought a cake. Shaf and Jun told me to wait for the others before I blow out the candles...but I didn't want to wait for the housemates to arrive. I already wanted to just blow the freaking candles because the cake looked so yummy and I just want to gobble 'em up hehehe. Takaw.

On Sunday, may turo ako so I would leave the house around 1.30pm and I'll be back around 6.30. But when I got to the school, I waited for more than hour pero wala talagang students so I decided to call Jun and tell him that I'll just go home na lang and go to mass later. But Jun (who was at LP that time) told me to just go and meet up with him. Then we attended the mass at 5.30pm. After the mass, Jun said: Tara magtaxi na tayo. Sabi ko: Aba himala, si sir Jun gusto mag taxi hehe.

When I opened our apartment's door, I saw that the sala's aircon was turned on and the dining table was filled with food. Haha. And out they came from the bedrooms: the housemates, Nana, Lori, etc etc. Hahaha. No wonder ang daming nakakapagtakang nangyari that day:

Si Nikki ang aga aga nag-gagayat na ng bawang at sibuyas. E hindi pa naman kami naggogrocery, ano kayang lulutuin nya. Ang excuse nya, binabalatan na raw nya para madali na lang pag nagluto kami this week...Si Vice ang aga aga magsimba. Yun pala bumili na ng manok hahah para sa fried chicken. Pag pasok ko sa kitchen e tinago pala nila bigla ung chicken sa may sampayan sa sobrang taranta nila na makita ko...Si Jover tumawag kay Jun pero hindi naman ako kinausap...Si Nana sabi sakin asa work pa sha e anong oras na and it was a sunday.

Style nila bulok hahaha. Akala ko wala nang pupunta so nagpambahay na ko. Yun pala may mga pupunta pa. Kahit sunday night nagpunta ang mga peeps. Kaya ayun sa mga pics, ako lang ang nakapambahay...

Anyway, thanks for everyone who remembered :)... To Carlo, who never ever fails to call me and greet me on my bdays kahit ako lagi nakakalimot sa birthday nya. To Pristine who greeted me sa lahat ng cyperspace ko hahah. To Tina, who gave me a super touching blog entry. And to everyone else who remembered. Sometimes kasi when you're far away from your loved ones, you would sometimes wonder whether they still remember your special day (haha drama). Shempre thanks to Nikki, Joel, Vice and my honie for cooking up the simple yet fun Birthday Salubong.

Next year, trenta na ko. Matinding birthday bash next year. I'm planning to celebrate it sa Pinas, where most of my loved ones are. Hope to see you then!

Cheers!
