So that I can remember it

Murmurs Mumblings - My Thoughts conversation with myself, rants, and more mumblings So that I can remember it

It all started with a hair raising realization , when my mum told me over the phone:
“It’s your bday next week”…yes, I felt my hair in my nape suddenly stiffened up…I forgot that it’s already march and forgot that it’s already my bday. I guess I am one of those people who celebrate others’ bday but not theirs.

Eve of march 3, my mind is still registering that my bday will be next week, despite the teasings I got from a tb friend JM about my bday, I keep saying it’s not my bday yet :P
22:30 GMT I got my first bday song greet from another TB -H, followed by a multilingual greet from TB -Je and another one from L. So, I sleep with a nice thought on my head.

When I woke up, I was rushing to finish my morning chores when my housmate hugged me, I gave her a blank stare,she then said it’s because its my bday…I have to laugh, I already forgotten about it again and she baked me the Sunday bread that I like :D Then I got a call from my family and they are singing to me again and again!

In the office the first thing I noticed upon my arrival was a single envelope atop my table….i opened it up and found 5 lovely letters from my chili friends (CoffeFairy,Eypooh, DayOHbee, Ays)



I was laughing and really touched at the same time. On my email inbox are more email from them, some from my college friends and from my prev housie. I was profusely dabbing my eyes, I was missing my close friends and family. As I was about to start my work, Aeliya had arrived and stopped at my place. She started singing as well!! Hahahah! And and I got this one from her !



Now I have more reasons to start singing “Joanna” :D Happy with my day so far, I started working on my tasks it was already late morning when I decided to check my TB account….JM is’singing’ my fave birdie song, another greeting fron my pet Iguana and his lil sis, then there was also betlog leaving a message and jush giving me an enthusiastic bday greet.
Lunch time came, me and aeliya, went out to eat “proper food” hahahahah and wash it with starbucks chocolate. Half-day is over, so I assumed the day will now pass uneventful. Dead wrong, returning from lunch, a bunch of purple flower was waiting in my desk!


My heart was pounding, I cant believe someone actually sent me flowers…I opened the card and it says it came from A.D.F? who the crap is that? I keep “harassing” aeliya to admit to me who is ADF, but she also doesn’t have an idea. So I stared at the flowers…purple. It’s my fave color, but not the color a guy would choose. It hits me, ADF = ApoAys Diovie Foyan…arrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggghhhh!!!
Hahahahahahah… i called foyan at that instant, she denies it at first, but after some prodding, she admits it ahahahah!! Yes, these chilis have a very creative way of spicing up a day :D



I was still blushing when I saw a mail on my TB account from T, he said sumthing about completing the diff ways of greetings… I thought okay someone greet me on the comment, phone and mail, so that’s probably it. I just then had the gut feel to scroll down on the update page…. On the newsgroup section, something caught my eye, ‘La Nina hits TB’ and I was so puzzled about the title as the rain season is already over…when I read it, I realized it was an announcement of my bday to the group courtesy of Jush…I was so speechless and touched, took me 30 seconds to recover and thanked him for this thoughtful actionr


I was wrapping my day up with aeliya by having dinner with her. Afterwhich I decided to go to church, I have to thank my creator for mistakenly creating me and feeling this warmth from all the people near and far from me :D. Returning back to my flat, my housie surprised with a card and cakes!!!


After an hour of eating and talking with her, we decided to rest already. I checked the time in manila, and then I decided to call my parents: ‘inay, daddy Happy wedding anniversary!!” yup, my day ended with my parent’s wedding anniv :D
