Still a HAPPY BIRTHDAY though.

Expect less to avoid unnecessary disappointments!


Days before my birthday I was so busy preparing for it.  From my tarp down to what food I should be preparing.  I admit, I was so EXCITED!  I even dreamt about it!  I even cried in my dreams because the cakes served weren't the cakes I wanted.  I felt so angry to myself for being so irresponsible.  Good thing it was only just a dream.   

On the day of my birthday, I went to church and lit a candle. I thanked God for giving me another year to celebrate.  I was so ecstatic and excited.  I was hoping that it would turn out better than last year, but it didn't.  I guess my 23rd was still the best so far.

It was so depressing to admit that your valued friends weren't there to celebrate with you. Even if how many times you texted them, but couldn't receive a single reply. Your neighboring cousins didn't even bother to greet you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY nor drop by for a while just to say HI despite how tiring the day it was for them.  I just couldn't help myself to get sad.  I allowed myself to be sad on my birthday! It was too bad for me. I shouldn't have allowed it. Regrets...Regrets...Regrets...always come last. 

Even if I was a little sad on my birthday, there were still people who cheered me up.  I thanked God for giving me these people:
>My younger cousins for always been present on my birthday ever since. They still managed to be there considering they had a dance practice on that night. 
>My Sales/F&B/Reservations family for sparing their time just to be there.  They were my first visitors and they still had to wait for a while until everything's cooked.hehehe. Sorry guys for waiting!:) 
>My college friends- Geraldine & Julie for inserting my birthday in their timetable. I didn't expect you would come. I got a chance to meet a new friend as well.hehe. I met Gera's friend that became my friend. 
>My cousin Paiza for the gift.haha. I didn't know you'd seriously buy one. Thanks to Manang IO as well.
>My cousin Karen for trying. I did appreciate your presence. You just don't know how.hehe
>My one and only Love (Shane) for always been there for me no matter what.  He stayed with me until the end of my birthday. 
>My family for all the help and support.

If there was one thing I learned on my birthday, it was that I should expect less to avoid unnecessary disappointments.
