My Numbers Today: 2 9 3

It's my 29th birthday today! I have so much to be thankful for! For one thing, being alive for 29 years is the best gift so far. Life hasn't been all pretty and I'm grateful that I was able to withstand the events that stink.

I started the day with prayer. Then I went to SM Supermarket with dad, Angel, and Biboy (who had spent the night before here at home) to buy ingredients for spaghetti. Afterwards, I spent the day in the kitchen cooking spaghetti, frying crispy chicken, and making vegetable salad. With the help of Biboy, of course. Thank heavens that nothing much went wrong with my cooking unlike last year. We had a sumptuos meal!

Aside from my birthday, Biboy and I are celebrating our third year together! He's one of the people that I'm thankful for. He's a reminding presence that life is truly wonderful! I love you so much, Bi!


Special thank you's for all my friends who didn't forget to greet me in this special day of mine! Thank you for the love and friendship!

Jennifer Toneza: Nothing takes God by surprise. He knows the future and can therefore guide us through its trackless ways...

Look ahead n seek God's way!! Happy bday! (This was an unexpected message. Jenny was a good friend in HS and we've lost touch eversince. Till I saw her again mid-last year in McDo. We've exchanged numbers but really didn't make much communication. I appreciated it that she remember my birthday! Thank's, girl!)

Wheng: Hi. Jeck, happy bday po!

Leigh called. I have spoken to her in YM earlier but she was completly unaware of the date. When reminded, she immediately called me. Ayaw niya raw kasi malagay sa journal ngayon for being pasaway! Hehehe. Don't worry. Greet mo rin naman ako last year. But guess who'd be on the list now? Read on...

At around 8, best friend Elma called. I've asked her to drop by the house. She did along with hubby, Jay. Then Than-than called using a different number. Hmmm... Kung hindi ka pa tinawagan ni Elma, di ka pa ata babati, eh! Tsk tsk tsk...

+639178578203: Hi po. Arnel to, I jas wntd 2 wish u a hapi birthday. Nd hop dat things wil workout btwin d 2 of us dis year. (Thank you for the greeting! Let's make time decide on the fate of our friendship...)

YM messages recieved from Maan (from Japan), Nean (from Italy), Mama, spaceman_spiff (who somehow gave Biboy a wrong information about the profession I so-called gave of my hubby: siya raw ba ung engineer? hahaha! he immediately apologized, though. blaming it on his bad memory), Ryan, Tita Dolly (from Oman), Nica, RJ (from Texas), & DJ.

Thank you, friends! If you are not on the list, it means I didn't receive a greeting from you! Bad kayo! (Pasensya na at demanding ako! Birthday ko, eh!) Calling Gilbert and Joanne!!!! Last year pa kayo, ah! *grrrr*
