My 25th Birthday

February 15, 2009 11:30pm

This is the time that I started to write this blog. Thirty minutes more and my birthday is finally over.

At 1:00am in the morning, I was still awake. My mom called me via cellphone. Now why the hell will mom call me when she's just downstairs? Curiously, I left my bedroom, climbed down the stairs and asked if there's something wrong.

My mom greeted me happy birthday and ordered pizza...Hawaiian pizza to be exact lol. We feasted on the simple midnight snack and watched tv. I could never ask for a better start for my birthday.

I woke up around 9am, prepared myself to go to church. After the mass, the commentator in front informed the crowd that it's also the priest's birthday. I approaced the priest, greeted him a happy birthday, and asked for blessing.

Around 3pm in the afternoon, I prepared for another singing engagement for our choir. This is the third time this weekend. I'm not complaining, at least that will keep me busy for the weekend. We were invited to a home wherein our contact wanted to surprise their parents by having us to their home and sing love songs as a post-valentine's gift. We were welcomed warmly and I am happy to see that they enjoyed the singing. :)

After our singing engagement, I invited the choir to have coffee at Starbucks. Sad to say, Banawe branch doesn't accept credit cards as of the moment because they were offline. Though disappointed, we opted to have pizza over Kuya Raz's house.

Overall. I am happy my birthday turned out great. I felt like crying because I was touched by my friends' gesture when they placed a small pink candle in the middle of the pizza. They sang happy birthday and asked me to make a wish. I have the pink candle inside my bag as a souvenir.

12:25 am... my birthday has finally come to an end. Another memorable birthday for me. Though not extravagant, it was heart-warming. :)
