birthday shower

when it rains...it pours

it was wet and gloomy today on my 3oth birthday (arrghh!) i woke up with the sound of a heavy downpour on my window and i thought...what an odd way of welcoming this day. i hoped the shower would end so soon but it didn't... forcing me to take a taxi and paid 70 pesos for it (arrgghh x2).

but the rain did not dampen my excited birthday spirit at all. the greetings were all over and the surprise blessings poured. it was declared a "no class" by the mayor due to the rain and bad weather...so i freaked out in joy :)

with my new cheap mary jane brown shoes...i huddled the rain with excitement along with my two girl friends sally and ermie. we had a heavy pizza trip with ate arlene at greenwich with ube macapuno roll from goldilocks yum yum yum! then off to Shrine hills and prayed to Sto Nino...and finally to jack's ridge for a breathe of cool air, little girl chatting and a free access to their overlooking-the-city comfort room :)

it was a birthday like no other...simple may it be, this day was a way of making me feel that i am still blessed with the best things in life that are priceless- good friends, family and a special someone out there :)

happy birthday to me :)
