It's really not about the gifts-- it's the love attached

Originally I was thinking about writing a personal gratitude of having the chance to experience much more love, excitement, friendship, life journey, tears of joy and happiness, family moments, travellings, good food, great books, and many other blessings from the Great Man Above. But since I am not feeling well, I'd just share some bday moments/gifts on this post and do that one on another post. Enjoy! :)

I woke up in the morning with a card that says “Happy 23th Birthday”. Regardless of the typo, I still love the card lol. And of course, the people whom the card is from— sissy Gaby, bro in law Andy, and lil bro Billy *hug


The card didn’t come empty handed, of course :p I also got a pair of earrings. They knew just what I like =)


My first gifts in the morning: a no ordinary card + a pair of earrings


Then I got a surprise at school. My Ubaya best buddies got a dark chocolate cake from Dapur Coklat.. deliciosooooo!!!


Ubaya best buddies (or my kids, more aptly): left to right.. Vanny, me, Nani, Rheta <3


Taking a pose with some girlfriends of mine.. They’re 5 years younger than me! I do not look that aged, apparently.. hehehehe (^__^)v


On 1st Dec when I came back from school I got a delivery from Mr. Postman— a bday card from my bff Janet and a postcard of Lyon.


Lyon, the city where Janet is studying right now. So pretty..


A card with lots of love and (of course) written in PURPLE ink (janet’s fave color)


Later on the 1st of Dec, Mr. Postman brought another lovely package for me— a simple yet deep white card..


…and a FUJIFILM INSTAX MINI 7S POLAROID!!!!! Awwww… I once wanted this thing so badly. I even forgot that I wanted it like a year ago. Lols and YAAAAYYYY!!!!


A card and Polaroid camera from my one and only darling, Ray.. my BFL (boyfriend for life). Love you sayaaaaanngggg *hugandkisses
