Birthday Girl


It was my birthday almost two weeks ago.

So, this is a belated birthday post.

Anyway, I am continuously thankful for the blessings that have come my way all through my life.

Celebrations?

Friday before my birthday, I sought out Elaine to catch-up and sort of celebrate my birthday as well. We went to Barrio Bistro and their Cheese pizza was a delight.

A surprise birthday get-together with some of our friends from law school was held on Sunday before my birthday. My dear Allan was able to gather our friends at the last minute two. I thought it was just Allan who was outside waiting for me to welcome him in our house. So, I was in my pambahay attire. Behold! I had a few friends waiting outside with buntings, balloons, pizza, ice cream and chicken. Thank you sa inyong tanan - Allan, Kahlil, Frederick, Rey Mar, Glyzl, Aizelle, Jane, Ogie, Clang, Bamut, Gang, Lyndon and Ling ;)

On the day of my birthday, I spent the morning at LTO to renew my license. Actually, I have been to LTO-SM twice already and LTO Main twice as well. Two of those times, the system was done. Anyway, after the assessment and picture taking, Allan looked for someone who can take my place at LTO to pay and wait for my Driver's License - it was his birthday gift to me (priceless!), knowing how frustrated I was with LTO the other day.

Another semi-surprise celebration courtesy of my dear friends Michael and Noche. happened before I left the office. It was semi-surprise because I had a feeling, though not 100% sure, since Noche was asking until what time I'll be at the office because he allegedly has a friend who was looking for someone to notarize his document for SEC, hehe. Anyway, these two great guys surprised me with a cake. Since we haven't seen each other for months, we also had a lot of stories shared.

Thereafter, I went home since I knew we had cake and spaghetti, which turned out to be baked mac, prepared at home. I had dinner with the family. Allan followed after his work.

On Thursday, I attended a Bible group at SGD where Hann surprised me with a gift ;)

On the Friday after my birthday, I met up with Bajenx and Lyn to celebrate not just my birthday but Lyn's as well. We had dinner at Don Beppe with Allan as well. Allan volunteered to pay for our dinner .. sort of my birthday gift from him ;) Allan had to leave early since he still has to finish some stuff. Us girls then went to Coffee Bean at Abreeza to continue reminiscing our school life with Bajenx sharing her married life with kids. We left after 12:00 midnight.

One week to celebrate my birthday with family and friends ;) Thank you Lord ;)
