25th birthday

Last Sunday, November 30, I celebrated my 25th birthday. I know, I'm getting old but I feel more blessed as my years accumulate. And so on that day, I gave all my thanks to Him. I thanked God for blessing me with a very supportive and loving family, great friends, a good job, a heart full of love and hope without regrets and happily performing duties to Him and serving Him, for challenges that make me strong, for keeping my faith, for my life's twists and turns that I never dreamed would ever happen....for EVERYTHING!

After church, my choir buddies and I had a hearty breakfast of barbecue and tinolang fish and shared stories and planned for our outing later in the day. It was also Nhery's (seniors choir leader and close friend) birthday the day before so it's just time for us to celebrate. Besides, there aren't many chances for us to bond coz we're all busy with work after choir practices and duties.

So at noon we met at Gaisano Metro before going off to Lapulapu City for our beach outing. The agreement was that we bring friends we want to bring as well as cash. I invited great friend Vicky, and they invited their friends. We didn't hassle ourselves with preparing and bringing food. We bought all the food and stuffs we need on the way to Ocean Pearl, where we rented a room instead of a cottage so that we don't need to watch our things in case we all want to soak in the sea, we could just lock the room. I had a lot of fun; everyone had a lot of fun bonding, chicka-ing, eating, singing the videoke, eating again...it was great! We went home at 9pm. By then all my energy was spent, I was dozing off at the jeepney (we had to take 3 rides going home), glad I still made it home. Though tired, I went to sleep with a happy heart and thanked God for the great day.
