23 on 23

I just turned 23 last Thursday. Thank you for everyone who greeted me on that special day. Some greetings even came before the day. Thanks so much!

The very first one to greet me was Ebet days before the exact date. Then Jeff at 7 pm on the 22nd. Nikki was the first to greet me on the exact date. Liezl greeted me through YM. Unfortunately, Jeff was not able to fetch me, so it was Marl who did. I treated him with coffee. And he gifted me with stories.

On the morning of my birthday, I went to UP to complete my "change of matriculation" (a tedious process to correct the stupidity of enrolling in a subject I thought I haven't yet taken which turned out I already did). I was going to have it signed by the dean but I was told that he wouldn't be there until 11 AM so I just left it there to not waste my time waiting. I went directly to Jeff's house to sleep.

I planned to spend my birthday as if it's no special than regular days but it was not meant to be.
We went to Tagaytay to celebrate, ate (thank you for the treat!) and had coffee. It was there that I completed the Starbucks stickers needed to claim the planner. Happy day!

(I will insert picture of planner here when I get the chance. XD)

Too bad I don't have a camera. I don't have any pictures to show for it. Only measly receipts from Carlo's Pizza and Starbucks. Jeff, Kio, Klip, thanks for the fun!

(I will insert picture of receipt here when I get the chance. XD)

I arrived late for work on Friday as I was determined to finish the change of matriculation process. Thank God that's done. Birthday greetings continued that day moreso because it was the day of the monthly company meeting. I was called on in the meeting and was greeted on the loudspeaker. It was so embarrassing! ._. But anyway, there was food and cake and though I know it was not especially for me it was FREE! XD

Birthday celebrations continued Saturday after my MA class (good thing my classmates didn't know I just celebrated my birthday). This time we celebrated with Janice, Donald, Ced, Kio (again), Magi, and AJ. We were planning to watch Casino Royale but the cinemas were already closed when we got there. So instead, we just ate at Max's to our heart's content then drank coffee (this time to complete the second round of stickers for Jeff XD) beside the bay. Rob unfortunately arrived late and was only able to catch us at that time (I think he ate some of the leftovers XD). We talked rowdily until around two.

Sunday was family day. I treated them to a KFC bucket meal because the Happy Feet tumblers were so cute. XD Then we all had coffee after. Jeff fetched me to drop off Magi and AJ in Bulacan. We ate chicken and Mulawin pan de sal and watched the really weird Willy Wonka movie Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. (Nope, didn't like it.)

Today, no more birthday celebrations but it's not over yet as Laurence (an officemate) and I decided to celebrate our birthdays together (his birthday's tomorrow). Why? To split the bill of course! XD

Caffeine overdose

I had 4 cups of coffee today. Two cups from the office coffee machine and two more from Starbucks. I'm feeling a little nauseaous but at the same time a little bit light headed. Surprisingly, I am not wide awake. I want to sleep.

EJ, Pat and I went to Eastwood early to have facials. Oh, my aching face. It felt and looked like I was attacked by an angry mob of starving vampire kitties. My nose is aching. My forehead is red. And my face is oily all over. Of course, my face is naturally oily but today it looks like you can harvest a bottle of it to use as a dip for Italianni bread.

Talking about food, let's jump to dinner. We're getting used to these high end eateries. Tonight we ate at Ebisu. I had Ebisu rolls and as always miso soup. The rolls are yummy. I never thought mushrooms could be that tasty.

I had coffee after dinner. I don't know if it's the coffee but although I feel like I'm scrimping over food, I felt really full returning to the office. Could it be that my diet is already working? If so, why am I still so fat? T_T I miss my old body. Y_Y

Jeff couldn't fetch me today because he again went to Bataan. He just got home around 8 so I told him not to force himself to do it anymore. I was going to ask my parents to fetch me but thought better of it. I asked Marl to fetch me instead to make good on his promise to treat me to something. Too bad he forgot. XD I gave him a slice of my birthday coffee, instead.

Humn... I miss Jeff already. I hope he hurries up and propose to me. =3

Anyway, I need to wake up early tomorrow and leave for UP early. I don't want to go there past 11 because it gets so hot. Hopefully, I should be able to finish the "change matriculation" process by tomorrow.

Sorry for the randomness. Hehe. As I've said at the start of my post, I want to sleep. So I will. Good night!

3 more Starbucks stickers to go!

Yay!

At the rate I'm going I should have that planner by tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. As May says, I'm a happy panda. XD However as promised, I should have Jeff with me when I'm finally able to complete the "stickering".

Oh, and I'm 23 today! Thanks for all who remembered.

6 more Starbucks stickers to go!

Yay!

Toffee nut latte! Yay!

Finally got my boyfriend to like something else from White Chocolate Mocha. Yay!
