Birthday Thoughts

Friday, July 21

We had our lower household at Erica's dorm. We're supposed to watch The Classic but the player was not able to read the cd. We ended up with What If then towards the finish, it hung. Sigh. The film was beautiful.

He took me to my place and in the cab he said that his officemate asked him to exchange schedule for the plant next week. He did not agree because he has two meetings the week after that. I just sighed and thought he forgot my birthday...

Sunday, July 23

We heard mass together. ÜÜÜ Due to the storm, it was raining hard. I'm glad that he brought Rexie and Rose back to their respective houses since he still has to go to their place and I was heading home.

Tuesday, July 25

I asked him about the UPCAT application of the two YFC-SIGA and he still has to contact UPD.

Wednesday, July 26

He advised me to take care of the UPCAT. Then he said he'll be attending the chapter assembly that night. and inquired about the blowout. I was surprised. So he remembered! Even if he cannot be with me on the day, he still made it in advance. Ü He arrived after the chapter assembly. Why? Because of the long trip. He never had supper yet so we went to Mcdonald's and by the time we would be leaving, it was raining hard. I arrived before midnight.

Thursday, July 27

The day! A few minutes after my arrival, I started receiving text messages. But I was too sleepy to reply, plus I only had 2 pesos credit. Hehehe.

I woke up at 5:30 am. Mom asked why I was so early. I replied I'm hearing the 8am mass at St. Jude, without Melvyn because he has to oversee the GK site at Talanay.

Then I proceeded to Tatalon to arrange the UPCAT of Daday and Malong. Since I did not want to walk, I brought a dozen munchkins so that I have some change for the tricycle. To my surprise, Daday had not yet filled up her form and had no photo. I went over their application forms. Both of them still has the form which their highschool should have filled up. We went to have Daday's photo taken (11am) and then to the school. The principal said that the registrar will be the one to take care of it, she'll just sign. The registrar had a lot of things to do and will be able to accommodate us at 3pm. Three pm? My system started to panic. PNB is only until 3pm! I called him and told him about it. Since he cannot do anything about it we talked to one of their advisers. They borrowed their classmate's pen because it's supposed to be in blue ink. We thought it over at the canteen. Determined, I proceeded to the registrar and tried to talk it with her. Finally, due to my persistence and insistence, she conceeded to fill up the form and the gave the Form 137. Thank God. Funny, that the two girls did not know their parents' full names and had to go back. At past 1pm, we were on our way to UPD. We paid the fine for late filing at the Quezon hall, walked to PNB because there was no jeep from Katipunan, and saw a lot of things and talk about a lot of stuff. In the bank, I taught them to fill up the deposit slip The bank's system was always going offline. When it was our turn, it totally surrendered. I had no choice but to secure a postal money order. But we ate lunch first (3:30pm) before going to the post office. I let them sign the PMO. We headed our way to the Office of Admissions and uttered thanks when they got their test permit. We walked over to the College of Arts and Letters, their venue for the UPCAT and then I inquired at the College of Business Administration (PHP2500/unit!). We got back at 6pm.

Throughout that day, I was busy texting him and replying to everyone who greeted me.

Friday, July 28

I texted Lourdi about the birthday party of the SAGIP Kids and she said she just has the money. We tried to contact Badz but he failed to reply to sms messages, did not answer his mobile phone, and the landline in his office is not working. I relayed it to Cathy and she said he'll take care of it.

Saturday, July 29

I arrived at Tatalon and found Badz there. He said that there was a lot of problems in his work so he turned his mobile phone off. Jaira and I had some money so we could buy food for the party. We had some games and story-telling for the children. It was a success! This afternoon was tutorial session, because tomorrow is the facilitators' training.

*****

So there. A lot of things that God has for me for my birthday...ÜÜÜ

I know that there's a lot more that I can achieve.
