Another Year Older

Today is the 22nd of June. What is the significance of this day? Well, today is the day I turn 26. I'm really getting older... This birthday is not the best of birthdays. Bad luck is on my side. Just four days ago, we received bad news from the office...RETRENCHMENT. If you are my former officemate and you are reading this, you know what I'm talking about. It just came right out of the blue; all of us were reeling from the shock of it all. Don't worry I'm recovering from it now. I'm trying to look on the positive side,that maybe there's a much better opportunity for me out there that is why it happened.

Aside from that bad news, this weekend was also a not-so-happy one. I was so looking forward to this weekend because we were going to celebrate our birthday. My cousin June (Yagz) and I the same birthday - June 22, and my niece Golda - June 23. Last year we also celebrated our birthdays together and we had the same plan for this year. And my boyfriend Ryann was supposed to come for the celebration, unfortunately due to typhoon Frank he was not able to. There was no trip from Catanduanes since Friday morning. I was really disappointed...

But anyway, we still had a bit of get together last night. I cooked yummy pasta, they bought chicken and lots of junk foods. We spent the night eating and singing. Good thing Mandy brought the videoke over, so we had some fun. There was me, Yagz, Apol, Gold, Mandy, Jenny, Ryan, Daryl, and Kuya Joey. But it could have been happier if my Ryann was there...but he called me up, so it was good.

Well, that's it. I'm now 26. What would this year bring me?
