I can't believe I'm 24 now. As Jon said (or was it Jeff? Haha.), we're (yes, we!) nearing our mid-20s already. Sounds terrible but still, aging is inevitable. It's something we all have to accept, whether we like it or not.
I don't know why I kept saying before that my marrying age is 25. If that is to happen, someone must have proposed to me by now and we must be planning and arranging for that hypothetical big day. Haha. 25 seems so old back then.
My birthday celebration was pushed back to the day after to give way to Tope's wedding, which my parents and I attended. It was a beautiful wedding, joined by family and friends, good music and yummy food. Yes, it was no non-sense just like the groom and full of sweetness just like the bride. Congratulations to Christopher and Rikka! May God bless your marriage with lotsa love and kids!
On the other hand, Rye flew from Palawan on my special day... not to see me and to be my date in the wedding (yes, I flew in solo.) but to attend a regional meeting in Batino. He was sort of kabado with his presentation. He said that it was not as polished as he wanted it to be. Add to this the fact that his flight got delayed. Mabuhay ka, Cebu Pac. When he called me after his meeting, he said "they loved it." What's new?! I knew you could do it. You're good at that... making people listen and be in awe at what you're saying. It surely works for me! Haha.
When we were on the way home, Rye was on his way to another "meeting." He went to Jules' Bachelor's Party. Let's leave it at that. I've always wondered what happens in stag parties... Sure, I heard his kwentos but are they accurate and precise? Hahaha. Oh well.
Rye showed up on our doorsteps at around 3 in the morning. Yes, 3 in the morning. Smiling. I just had to let him in and bring him to the boys' bedroom. Time to sleep, my dear. He got the spot between the 2 beds. Kawawa naman! Haha.
For the next 2 days, we just stuffed ourselves with lots of food and love. Naks!
Saturday
Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs + Brown Rice
Rye asked for mayo. Haha. Imbento sauce. He loves his bacon with mayo. Nahawa na din ako.
Lunch: Sango, Powerplant
From home, Rye and I went to Powerplant. (I missed my class. Bad girl! Haha.) Since I've been wanting to try Sango for the longest time, he said, we'll have lunch there. I ordered Master Cheeseburger while Rye tried the Yakiniku Beef Rice Burger. Yummmmy!! Let's eat there again, Love :) After a couple of hours, Daddy dropped off Maan and Rob. Feeling niya maliliit pa sila and he was so worried where he would drop them off. As if we won't see each other eventually wherever he drops them off. Haha. Funny. We stayed at Coffee Bean for a while until we decided to go to San Carlos for the mass.
Youth Prayer Meeting @San Carlos
Fr. James celebrated the mass with us, followed by a short program in honor of our outgoing adult coordinators, Tito Rene and Tita Nelly. The auditorium was overflowing with love and gratitude as we said our thank you's to them. I will surely miss serving with them. Our time is also almost up. Just a few more weeks, Lord. Thank you for the 3 years that you gave us. Galing mo!
On my way down to the canteen, Berna surprised me with a box of Joey Pepperoni Pizza from the XOXO gang. I was surprised and touched. I loved it! Especially the gummy worms "TRINA" and pepperoni "HBD." Thank you to Berny, Miccy, Jeppy, Melly, Jonny, Celly, Robby, Krissy, Jeggy, Marvinny, Aryay, Carloy, and Ryanny, my love.
Dinner: Isshin, Pasay Road
Finally, our family celebration at Isshin. Japanese food is love <3 style="font-style: italic;">Breakfast
I actually forgot what we ate! Haha. But I'm sure we ate something!
Lunch: Inihawfest at Perfecto's Farm Tagaytay
Rye, Mico, Rob and I went to Tagaytay for Gabe's 16th Birthday celebration. It was rainy and muddy. Hence, the car got stuck in the mud. Tito Tony came to the rescue! His Defender was there for a purpose.
Had inihaw na liempo and ribs, nilagang bulalo and veggies. Yummy! Kain nanaman! Hehe. Hung out in the farm for a bit and left at around 3pm with everyone else.
Merienda: Yellow Cab
By 4pm, we were in Bicutan already and guess what.. another stop over to EAT! Sobrang takaw talaga! We had merienda at Yellow Cab. Ordered 14" Pepperoni and Mushroom Pizza, Charlie Chan Pasta and Tomato Soup for me. I love soup! Must-have for every meal. I will try to make tomato soup one of these days, Rye. :)
After our merienda, it was time to finally part ways with Rye.
Time to go home to the bundok once more.
***
All in all, it was a fun fun fun and busog birthday weekend for me!
It wasn't a typical one but spending time with my loves was the best gift of all.
Till next year! :)
