BIRTHDAY RANTS AND THOUGHTS
Oct 3 - 5, 2003

October 3 dawned with several people wanting to be the first to greet me a Happy Birthday... I was also not yet finished with the desserts I was making...

Woke up heavy-lidded and woozy, due to my allergic rhinitis at 9 am or so. Went to the office so my colleagues could feast on the food my Mom prepared for them. Went back home at around 4 pm. Mom was still preparing food...

It was nice... a lot of family (a lot of nieces and nephews from cousins) and friends (college, NGO and mountaineering org) attended... and of course, everyone gushed at how absolutely cute my nephew Pyro is.

Imagine my drinking friends chugging beer and eating lanzones at the same time!

Oh yeah, fell in love with White Chocolate Mudslide by Shakers. Absolutely DIVINE!!!

And I just have to really thank my Mom for all the preparation she did...

And I can't help but mention that it was weird... having GLD (Alvin) come (my Mom and Sis were happy indeed to see him and am happy that he's every bit the proud father that he is now...) and also have my last ex, Jojo there...

October 4, found me going to Villa Valencia II for an Over Night Swimming... the gimik was overflowing w/ real cute men but it was enough for me to spend time with girl friends and unwind. Not that my girl friends weren't the naughty ones...

And not that it was actually a tame gathering either.... Lolz...

And despite my wish to never partake of Tequila Rose again... I still had two shots of the stuff... Man, i'm bad...

October 5, after eating goto somewhere w/ my fellow MyGers... and going home... I had a nice surprise... details of which are best left to the innermost recesses of my mind...

Anyway, this last picture shows what I got for gifts... the reflection book my boss gave me, and the cat figurine GLD gave me are both not here... plus the sarong I used (which Allee gave me)...



Anyway, the best thing about turning 26 is... still being alive to live it...

Thank you, God...
