Surprise #1.

August 21 (around 630 pm)

My friends in the office prepared a video clip for me. Super effort talaga! (As in,.. with all the blurring effect with everyone in the pictures except me). Thanks easterrific! The heart of the matter is that my cluster mates’ messages were written in acetate. Creative right?! Oh well, I get to be haunted by them like forever. Hehe! But of course, I can always use an alcohol in case I decided not to be bothered by them. Hehe! Joke, I vividly remember what tati had written to never get the messages near an alcohol. Sure I wouldn’t tati. Thanks so much tathayanna and for everyone who made the effort. Your messages had touched my very soul in ways more than you guys could ever imagine. Thanks for the love and friendship you’ve shared with me.

Surprise #2

August 21 (around 8pm)

My cellmates had given me a silver cross-shaped pendant! I’m s000 happeeeeeee! I was supposed to buy one. Well, it really is an advantage when your cell leader is your roommate since she knows what you really want. Hehe! Thanks murs and to my cell mates! I kind of kid the Lord that I think I had a rhema with the verse “Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart” since I got what I wanted when I finally decided to attend. (I must confess that I did plan, earlier that day, not to attend). I’m pretty sure that the Lord was referring to more meaningful ‘delighting oneself in Him’ but I’m sure glad I went. Not merely with the gift per se but more so with the message shared that night. It was so timely; I needed to be reminded to always have a right spirit. Aja!

Surprise #3

August 22 (1201am)

While I was going through the messages that my officemates had given (see surpise 1), my room8s and three housemates suddenly sang the most popular song “happy birthday” bringing a cake with them. The candle bearer was the “bida” in that whole act as she was carrying the candle like she was in some sort of a procession. That was really funny and we all just laughed about it. I didn’t know anything about the surprise… not even a hint. It’s either my roommates were good in acting or I must have been so engrossed with the messages. Anyhow, I was so touched! They are the only family I’ve got here in Makati and spending the first hours of my birthday with them feels like home. (Char!) Thank you guys for your messages and I pray that God will help me make them come true according to His perfect will.
