My Birthday Diary

The day that I’ve been waiting to come every year is my birthday. It is so special to me and so important. This is a day which I want to celebrate with the most important persons in my life.
March 19, 2009- I started my birthday with a countdown with Ate Joi, younger sister of my bf. It is so cool and funny. I enjoyed how we tried to make the first minutes of my day so happy. I also appreciate her thoughtfulness and the way she tried to make my birthday special and valued. It means a lot.
When I wake up that morning, my mama and papa greeted me, as they used to do. Every year, the every time they wake up, they try to wake me up too just to greet me; such simple gestures that show how we value our birthdays. Every year, my birthday is well celebrated in ways that we give so much memories into.
Then, I spent the whole day waiting for the afternoon. My classmate and friend Crisriln came. Among my group of friends, she is the only one who was able to come, which I understand. All my friends were working and it so happen that it was Cris’ day off. And I was also touched with the attempt of Vergel, one of the best friends that I have since college, to surprise me; but as he said, he was the one surprised coz he never thought I am not around. (I had my Media Class in UST).
At 4PM, I left home to UST. Then, Im too sad that April forgot my birthday. Hai…
The next chapter is the celebration of my birthday at Gidz place. It is so nice. We ate palabok and rice cake, with his cousins, aunties, uncles, sister and the rest of the people in the house. I received so many gifts…nice gifts! I appreciate them so much! I also like to thank ate Aurey and Tita Benil for the thoughtfulness. I just felt so sad when I’ve learned na Gidz and his cousins will go out. But I do understand. What made me sad is that, the whole day, I’ve been waiting for the time na makikita at makakasama ko siya; I mean quality time together. Anyways, as he said, I should be flexible, I should content myself with what I had for that day. Yah right, But I hope he knows that of all the things that I had from that day, what I am after is the time I was suppose to have with him, not from the previous or following days but on my birthday. It is not “JUST A DAY.” Anyways, I really love his gift to me, the biggest bear that I had. Thank you so much!
Anyways, to sum it up, I was happy and still thankful for all the blessing I had; for the entire things I had , for the celebrations, for all the special things, and for the another year I have. May God continue to bless me always.
