PIXEL BUG Weekend 011
First things first .... From the bottom of my heart, thank yoouuuu very much ♥ all you guys and gals who sent love, messages, and birthday wishes over the weekend. You make my heart glow.

We are on 10th weekend without D and my tweets will tell say that it's been 67 days since he went to the US. WHOA. It's been that loooong. I didn't go to the beach last Saturday like I wanted to. Last Saturday was the most quiet and simplest birthday I've ever had in my "23" years of existence. It was a little sad, oh you guys know why. BUT GoD sent me bundles of happiness through friends who went out of their way to do something nice & cute ── which were all unexpected.

  • I got a surprise call all the way from Oregon from a friend and her hubby, both of them, I haven't seen in 5 years. I was really touched by this gesture.

  • Then, there was a surprise e-mail from another close friend of mine.
  • And an unexpected visit at home from my girl best friend :)
  • Got a nice e-birthday card from RICK. Maraming Salamat!

  • Plus several cute birthday greetings in Formspring. Except for MKL, the other peeps who left messages in FS didn't leave their names.Ö

  • This one, you guys have to see. The fabulous LUCIA has made something lovely in her blog. You are an angel.Ü

  • And lastly, aside from making me cry, this definitely made my day. D gave me 13 roses.Ü There's one typo error and I find it cute & funny that the flower shop included my last name in the TO field. That might be one of their SOP when you order flowers online.
  • 23 Again

    You see, when you disable your Facebook wall and deactivate your FB account for 24 hours, you'll know who your true friends are. I'll be brutally honest here, there's something about Facebook-driven greetings that I kinda do not like, but this doesn't apply to everyone. Of course, if you do not have my number, I'd understand, but for non-online friends, there's something wrong if most of the communication goes around on Facebook. What if I never logged on to my account? Get what I mean. No violent reactions please, that is just MY opinion. Peace.Ü ☮

    I started blushing a lil when i got to the part where you mentioned me,hehe. No need to call me and angel as i really am none :)

    I am glad your friends and D made you feel special <3 and feel sad that you didn't get the chance to go to the beach :( Hopefully you will sometime soon ;)

    Ohhh now i know what happend with your FB account on Saturday and i 100% understand why you did that. I have my wall enabled for 6 people only, so that i don't get stupid messages from everyone else, especially for my b'day :P I also consider it impersonal and lame when my friends from real life just spam my wall and don't even bother calling me at least.

    I agree with you. Why post in FB when you can call and greet? Especially when you see each other. Good you had a wonderful birthday! Here's to a happier year ahead for you :)
