happy birthday to me
First of all: Thank you to everyone who greeted me and wished me well for my birthday. Thank you na rin sa mga babati pa lang. :D
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So there, just like that, i'm a quarter-of-a-century old now.
I'll say that this latest birthday is the least special and most boring one yet i've had in 25 years. No celebration (yet?), not much anticipation (di katulad ng dati, new year pa lang alam kong malapit na yung birthday ko), no gimmick on birthday night (and i had carinderia food for dinner, pathetic?), no surprises and no something special. Well wishes and greetings are the only things that reminded me it was birthday. Heck, a lot of people who mattered didn't even greet me. It was a little sad... no, not sad.. just disappointing.
I hope birthdays won't be like christmases, wherein it becomes less special as you grow older. I hate to think that someday i'll feel that my birthday is just like any other day. Birthday ko yun e! di ba dapat ako yung star? kulang na siguro ako sa pansin.. hmm...

well there, i'm 25 now.
when i was younger, i thought that by this time in my life, i'll be successful, mature and content. i even thought that i'll be married by 26 which is suppose to place me in a long-term and stable relationship right now. i'm just not a fan of whirlwind romance though i doubt it'll even happen to me (and yeah, "whirlwind" means 1-yr or less). somehow, turning 25 makes me think of my so-called lovelife. let's see, this is how my past relationships (suitors, flings, M.U, boyfriend/s) stand now:
2 are married,
1 is getting married,
2 are in long-term relationships,
1 is alive somehow somewhere i dont care to know,
1 is around but already blew his chance,
1 who i really can't work with now, and
1 who is hard to place.
I saw "Something's Gotta Give" last night in HBO. And i felt for Diane Keaton. You see my problem is: I really like Keanu Reeves, he's everything a woman could ask for. But for some weird workings of the universe, i still fall for Jack Nicholson. And my greatest problem is i'm not Diane Keaton, i'm not yet 50!
