Birthday Reflections - Blessings

So I turned 25 in another country! Actually, no, let me brag about this a little -- I turned 25 in the beautiful Philippine Resort of Boracay. The beaches are breathless, the people are crazy nice, the experiences/entire 2-week vacation was undescribably awesome, food took me (and my diet) away, and the family surrounding me was a blessing.

I'm 25 -- yikes. Damn. .. Wow.

I'm kinda re-directing my thoughts on my future at this point (more than I'd like to admit. Almost/Borderline worrisome). It's a blessing to be where I am at professionally, but I might have some ideas...

Anway, I'm seeing pictures of other bdays celebrated in NY and all the other friends that participated and it feels bittersweet: I'm so happy they had a ball with everyone out here, but at the same time, I'm kinda sad I missed out on the festivities. I cannot be too sad, b/c like I said, I was in a paradise of my own on Nov. 13 with almost all my loved ones. Oh well, we can't have everything, right? ;-) The important thing is to count my blessings and I will never have enough fingers (real and imaginary) to count ALL the blessings I have in my life.

Happy belated Turkey Day! Another day celebrating what we each have in our lives to be grateful for.. I was too busy stuffing my face and cleaning up my apt to greet ya'll on actual Thanksgiving.

I have sooo much to update you on re: Philippines and pictures. Those will come next. Stay tuned!!!

Happy Birthday, Alena! (Nov. 12)
Happy Birthday, Din! (Nov. 12)
Happy Birhday, Shell! (Nov. 15)
Happy Birthday, Pris! (Nov. 23)
Happy Birthday, baby! (Nov. 24)

... Whew! I can breathe now ... lol
