BECAUSE WE TURNED 5.

Happy 5th Anniversary, my superstar.

For you, a guitar...

 so you can fill our home with beautiful music again.

I love you endlessly.

TURNING 25.

I've been asked so many times lately what I want to do or simply what I want for my birthday. This time last year, my wish list was already up and posted here but now I can't seem to think of literally ANYTHING that I really wish for on my birthday. Does this mean I've outgrown wish lists? (Nooooo!) Or does this simply mean I've grown? That feels a little sad. It's sad how some things change when we get to a certain age. I refuse to believe that just because people age means that they have to let go of some of the things they used to do when they were younger. I guess it's just up to us to keep the child in us alive in some ways.

And to stay true to that statement and for the sake of tradition as well, here's my very well thought of wish list for my 25th:

Breakfast Buffet

I ABSOLUTELY love buffet breakfast! There's just something about it that I find very appetizing compared with buffet lunch or dinner. Alex and I (and maybe Apple, too) are already planning on going to Vivere on the morning of my birthday for this. Yay to that!

Lots and lots and lots of make up and make up tools!

Because someday, I will be a professional make-up artist :)

Make up box

For all the make up I'll receive. Haha!

FitFlops

Calling my sister's attention! This is exactly the style I want. Hehe :)

Hair Treatment

No, I don't want to meet her nor do I want to look like her. I want my hair to look like hers after a treatment. Suntok sa buwan yan but what the hell. She's P'nam from the movie "A Crazy Little Thing Called Love", by the way.

A day of pampering

Manicure-pedicure-massage-facial all in one day! This will probably be my birthday gift for myself :)

Denim cut-offs

 

 I want something exactly like this.

Tinkerbell Pen with laser light

Because I lost mine just recently :( I bought it at the Japan Store in Festival Mall, I hope they still have it.

And for the wishes I'm not able to say with a photo...

I wish for a more fruitful life, 

days that are less monotonous, 

protection from harm and bad vibes, 

better compensation, 

direction and stability in my career, 

lessons on make up artistry, 

more hosting gigs, 

stronger relationship with God, 

opportunities to be more patient, loving and wise, 

time for experiencing new things, meeting new people, going to places I've never been to and seeing things I dream of, 

more years of stronger, more passionate and more loving relationship with Alex,

faith,

hope

and pixie dust.

Haha!

Cheers to turning 25!

DANCING IN SEPTEMBER.

So I've been a bit busy lately. Mainly because of work. It's really hard being assigned in Makati, knowing that I can be assigned in Sucat or Alabang. I feel tired everyday because of the commute. And the transactions I handle are not helping any. To be fair, I've been slowly adjusting to my colleagues in Makati. They have been kind but the relationship is not personal. We don't talk much about our personal lives, everything is purely work-related. I guess that's how it's always gonna be--and that's fine by me. Lately it's just been going to work then going straight home. And when I get home I don't feel like moving. I just lie there til I fall asleep. That's how tired I get.

On a happier note though, I've also been busy planning my good friend Kat's Baby Shower and preparing for a hosting gig for a debut. Yay to that! This Saturday will be the 18th birthday party--I'm so excited and so nervous at the same time! I've been trying to put together my script and I must admit that it's not very easy. Ah, I remember all the scripts I wrote back in college too! Though none of those were for a debut or events similar to that. I'm still trying to decide what kind of emcee I'll be. I want to make it fun without going overboard or making it look like a stand up comedy, especially since the event will be a bit formal. I just don't want to be stiff, if you know what I mean. Pressure! Syempre I'll be the one to set the mood. Jeez, I hope I'll do just fine. But oh, I don't have anything to wear yet! And I don't know how to do my hair or my make up! Pero hindi naman ako ang celebrant so most definitely I'd go simple lang.

Next Saturday, September 10, it's going to be the baby shower! Ako nanaman ang ringleader, like always. But it's so fun planning everything! I'm excited about the games and the decorations and the prizes. And I'll be cooking carbonara too! I hope everything goes according to plan. I'm not gonna say what the other details are para surprise pa din kahit papaano.

It's September 1 today!!! So many things to be happy about this month! I'm turning 25 and Alex and I are turning 5! So exciting!

Good vibes all the way!
