never imagined that I will have a chance to be with my family on my special day of the year. It took me months to file a leave (just to be away from work for a day) but due to luck I guess, I got two days off from work and I didn't have to use my leave-yehey!
The first plan was to leave after my shift from work then head our way to the resort.
Due
to heavy rains, it didn't happen. Besides, I was too stressed from EDSA
traffic and my head's kinda not in place anyway. When I got home, my
parents and I talked about my plans for the next day, things to buy and
what to do yada yada.
Around 6am, the service came and we head off to Oasis Hotel and Resort in Tanza, Cavite.
The place was a 'okay' for me and I felt bad actually when my baby dog Jordan can't come with us at the cottage. I had fun being with my siblings, aunt and her kids as we celebrate my day as I aged for another year.
However before I blow my candle, something came up. There's this guy who got a cut at his leg which was really deep and his blood was all over his leg (I felt like I was watching some scene in the movie, Saw). My dad, who was a trained rescuer, helped them out and I will never forget his famous line as he provided first aid:
Napkin! Pass me a napkin!
Which does makes sense- we have to put pressure to the wound to prevent blood loss.
The accident happen as we are preparing the cake and setting the candles up. After the incident, everybody was making fun of me-like, I planned it so everyone will take notice of me as I blow my cake. Hahaha-very funny!
Putting fire on the candle wasn't easy. It was an effort for us to set it up-just for me to have that experience of 'blowing the candle on a cake' at my birthday. Well, determined as I am, you will laugh hard (I guess) if you knew what I did. Haha!
My sister Yzza wrote something in a paper (I had a glimpse though) then she passed it on to my dad. One moment, I can hear them calling my name as the live band at the resort greeted me and played a song for me.
Cool. I was touched though. I love my little sister's sweetness!
Every year, my simple wish is to let the rain shower me blessings on my day. As the saying goes, 'be careful what you wish for', I was actually hoping for 'ambon' and not 'bagyo'
I paid for an extension at the resort and I guess, it's part of the plan as heavy downpour of rain enveloped the place. Lightning and thunderstorm were the sound effects as the heavens greeted me a happy birthday.
We were stranded but I felt great. This is my best birthday that I had in my 26 years of existence-couldn't ask for more!
Additional to that, I had the chance to be with my baby on my birthday.
I aged again and I kept on asking them if I do look like one at my
age? Their replies were good as I always get a positive answer. 
See how sunny it was in the morning?
Cheers!

"Ate, I won "
This was the sms that I got from my little sister, Xyra last Monday February 20, 2012.
She bagged the crown of being Ms. Intramurals 2012 of Philippine Christian University in Silang, Cavite.
As a proud big sister, here Iam-posting a blog specially for her. <3
Although let me tell you guys that I hate to know that she didn't buy any batteries for my camera thus, I can't see how pretty she was on that day. My apologies for that one. But, let me share though how happy she was while she shares her story on how she was awarded as the queen in their school during their sportsfest.
So, I decided to pay a visit in their school to see her alma mater earlier this afternoon. It's 30 minutes travel from home-without traffic I guess. Haha!
Hmmm.. the moment I set foot on their ground, I began to reminisce my highschool days. I miss wearing school uniform, greeting our school guards every morning and of course, singing the national anthem every Monday.
Then, I saw some of her reel friends and admirers in school-haha. Everywhere we walk, people is somewhat staring at my sister (what do I expect?). My little sister is already making her mark in her school.
After that, we head our way at Robinson's mall (Imus) to feed my craving for a fruit shake. Speaking of fruits, I've been practicing to skip myself in sipping a nice cup of soda as I gulp more with juices and shakes.
However, that didn't end there-we had a good time munching Burger King's 'whopper' in SM Bacoor.
Minsan, naaalala niya yung isa pa naming kapatid. Pero, sa totoo lang, ag naiisip ko siya, I'm sorry but I really get agitated when I think about what she's doing recently.
Naiinis talaga ako-really.
Oh well, it all ended well as we had a cup of our favorite frappuccino in our favorite coffee shop.
Hello caffeine overload!! Here I am, blogging late at night even though I have an early shift later. Wahahaha!
Good night!
