Birthday Wish

Geographically, It is September 10 already in the Philippines and it's a day before my birthday.

People who knew me would know that i have a lot of wish for myself, most of them are material things. But this time i just have one wish. I want to have a HAPPY birthday.

Yearly, I always prepare some small gathering with my friends. I always tell my friends to eat at home first before going to my house cause there is no food. Apparently, yearly my Papa cooks even if i don't give him money to buy. So the "small" gathering becomes a "grand" in a way that food is available for every body. Last year, I have a 2 part birthday celebration. One day for my Real-life friends, another day for my work friends. but you know, it wasn't really the food that matters. It is spending my birthday with my family and friends who i consider a part of me.

I should be happy.  Early this year, I prayed to God not to allow me celebrate my birthday this year in the Philippines. Wish Granted, earlier even. Now it would be the first birthday out of the country and you know, i don't even have plans. I am not even excited cause i will be working on that day. I just missed so much people in the Philippines, one of which is also outside the Philippines.

Can i be happy? Tell me. I'm alone and broke. But i still want to be happy on that day. I really wish to have a happy birthday.
