Happy birthday to ME!

When I was around 6 or 7 years old, Ate Cel (my yaya) and I were talking what it would be like when I'll celebrate my 18th birthday. Back then I didn't have any idea about the whatevers of having a debut. In fact, I didn't even know how to spell debut during that time.

She said that I would have a very big celebration in our house or in a 5-star hotel in Davao city. She added that I would have a very gorgeous gown, and my parents would be so proud of me. Lahat ng Bangkal imbitado! Lahat ng Pasia imbitado! Lahat ng Pureza imbitado! Lahat! Lahaaat!

I really really looked forward into having that kind of celebration...

And now, I'm 18. Debut ko na.

And where's the celebration? Haha... Simpleng simba na lang... Actually, I'm just going to visit the chapel here in school. Apparently I still have 2 group works to do at 2pm and at 3pm. As you get older, you tend to be more conscious of how you spend money. At since krisis ngayon, tipid muna.

I'm just going to make this a simple celebration... And I'm just going to keep it to myself.

Haah...

Again, Happy birthday to ME!
