it was the day i turned 34! what a number! but i've never regreted getting a higher number. when looking back to my life and seeing what i have been through, i am happy the way my life turns out. it's a fulfilled and satisfied life i want to live. not that everyday was a great day but it's the life i have dreamed to live and i am living it, every single day..
this year on april 26, i was woken up by a text at 5 am. it was from pt texting me birthday wishes and then at 6.30 am, it was a phone call from my 2 year-old niece, py. her parents dialled the phone for her and the first sound i heard was a toneless child voice singing "happy birthday to you" again and again.. i smiled broadly with my eyes still half-closed.. it was a great day to start my 34th.. i thought to myself..
next, it was the call from mom wishing me great life, great health and wealth.. and later was dad, similar wishes as mom... they didn't say "i love you".. but i know the way they talked and wished me.. they love me dearly..
when coming down and checking my mails, i've got many wishes from my friends, bro-in-law and 43things friends.. i love all your wishes, guys.. and still today (april 29), i received some from online friends..
here are all the wishes, i want to keep and read again and again.. they uplift my day.. (they are some more that came in animating forms and i don't know how to copy and paste in here.. but i want to tell you, i appreciate all the wishes you guys gave to me..)

Happy Birthday
I just got the invite from Flirt and instead of doing belated birthday wishes, I’m going to crank this out now. Of course just like I noted with Arsene’s wishes earlier it’s already tomorrow over in Thailand. Heck it’s tomorrow here on the East Coast too, but thanks to the Robots being on the West Coast this time stamp will reflect the proper date for these wishes:
May she recognize the beauty that surrounds her each day, for the art of the universe that it is. May she have the chance to travel to places she wants to go, and share her travels with us (sometimes via postcards). And may her photos always reveal something that was unseen when she snapped the picture.

it was Flirt who started this goal for me and invited everyone to join it... thank you so much flirt, you are always so thoughtful and care for everyone..
and in the evening, we went out to have dinner together.. it was mom's idea. my brother was away with work, so there were only 7 of us..
...it was a wonderful day to start my 34th...
there are simple things i want to do more often since my bd, here are the list.. just the ones that i can think of right now..
- pray more
- keep running, every single day..
- wear skirt more
- practice compassion
- scrap, read, jouranl more
- stay a wanderlust
- be a good friend to all the friends i have..
