birthday

before today ends... i just want to make a blog note of what happened today.


of course i turned 27 as of 4.30 this morning. my mom kept telling me at 27 she already had 4 children. i don't want to elaborate on what she meant by that.

i woke up at 9 am and didn't want to get up. but i had to because my lola requested for MY macaroni salad, because the one my mom made last christmas was bland :) so i went there to make it. or watch THEM (mom and tito joey) then i would bring it down to my grandma til it suits her tastebuds. (speaking of which, i lost mine last new year's eve and i think i still lose it every now and then... blog note!)

then we went back to my place to eat, and to have visitors, and that's it. :) i'm sleepy... i can't think anymore... i have to sleep... i NEED to sleep.

thank you Lord, again, for letting me see my 27th year. :)

Bahrain

i can't think of a better title.


it's past 2 a.m. and i am just about to sleep. i just finished making my chicken macaroni salad (painstaking!) and jellies for a friend's birthday tomorrow. i just thought that since she's away from her family, i'd try to make her happy even just a tiny-teeny bit (whatever that is).

so i got home 10.30, because my friends and i went to Marina mall after (my) work to have dinner, which i barely touched (coz i'm sad for a reason). and then tried to help another friend look for a decent white dress... i was wondering, really, how and why i met this one! she's a heartbreak. her life, and her present job, and she's helpless. i know i have problems of my own but i just feel like helping her the best i can.

so, after tiring myself from walking around the mall, (back and forth the racks and fitting room --like a mother!) i finally got home and hurriedly ran to the nearby cold store to get the ingredients we don't have. when i got i the store, the cashier introduced me to their new help, by saying "this is my best friend" ... of course i was polite and said hi back, but my mind was asking "since when have we became best of friends?"

i mean, i don't even know her name! hahaha... yeah, i go there, we spend time talking, but best friend? no worries, she's not gonna read this. i'm just surprised that somebody actually considered me her best friend. it takes a long time for me to consider somebody my best friend, so... there.

and a best friend for me, is someone who knows you inside out, and accepts you for who you are. and is there in good AND bad times. maybe i have high standards, and also being possessive, makes it hard for me to find one here in Bahrain. anyway it's not like a requirement.

and before i forget... last night, while waiting for the pedestrian to clear between Seef mall and the parking lot, i was talking to my friend, and a car stopped so we could cross. and oh my god, it was a Ferrari in front of me! i mean, i have seen one before, but it was gliding with the Porsche. nothing i just wanna make a blog note.

I am 25...

birthday

:(


i'm not happy. it wasn't a happy birthday at all...

although... i really appreciate lahat ng bumati sa akin... whether it be through SMS, friendster comment, and personal greeting... and for the gifts. yung iba, material, yung iba gift of friendship. i really appreciate it.

but i'm not happy talaga. i am so disappointed. but still, thank you po Jesus, kasi i am alive. naabutan ko pa ang 25th birthday ko, despite all the hardships di ba? and all the paranoia.

hay... let's begin the silver year. whatever is in store for me, God only knows.....

just now?

birthday

it's been a wwwwwwwwwhile...

i'll be giving you updates. yes, we went to Laguna. it was nice, although i don't swim good, life jackets helped a lot! i like the aftermath. sun-kissed face.

my new year went quite good. or maybe not. the firework displays made up for it.

i had a cake for my birthday. now that's different. i also had roses, gifts, and giLbey's. it doesn't happen every year. i don't remember blowing my own birthday candle. i only get to blow a candle after my sister, cause she always has one (or two?). and her birthday is 7 months way after mine, so i can't pretend it's mine.

my life so far... better blog. still alone (not vying for a boyfriend though!). heartbroken. doing good so far.

later on the yp service, think i'm gonna be back-up singer again (2nd time). my dream has now come to reality *yahoo*... the dream i didn't dream of, yet came to reality: me being a choir leader. i started last wednesday. and despite all the hindrances (even before the first practice!) i still went on. i know many more hardship will come my way, i just have to lean on Him. (wee.. bait ko?)

by the way, our emblem lost. not too much, but yet too much! i don't want to brag how beautiful our emblem is because it didn't win anyway. they deserve it anyway. that i can accept.
