Happy Day :)
I totally should be writing my paper since my classmates are also freaking out about it, but I'm not. I don't feel motivated enough to do it, and I've never been one to force myself to become motivated since nothing really good comes out of it when I'm unmotivated I guess I work better under pressure. Tomorrow, once I get back to LA I'll definitely have to start and finish writing my two papers. For now, I'm enjoying my birthday lazy weekend.
Today I woke up to hearing noisy pots and pans in the kitchen. My parents were busy cooking for me. I didn't think my mom would cook so much food for us the four of us. I think if my mom didn't have to work today, we could have eaten out to save my mom the trouble. Nevertheless the food was excellent :)
Unlike my other 20+ birthdays, I felt like my dad was finally treating me like an adult. I guess since I'm paying for my own apartment, bills and everything else, I also feel more like one. It's actually scary, yet liberating to finally be paying for your own place by yourself under your name, especially when I've always had everything handed to me by my parents since young. Anyway, my dad finally spoke to me about my getting married. He told me I should not settle. Of course I always thought that I wouldn't as much as possible either, but I know sometimes you have to weigh in what matters most to you. Ultimately you will never get everything to line up the way you really want it. I know that if I wait too long, things might change, but still it wouldn't be fair to him or me to get married out of practicality or lukewarm feelings. That aside, career is my top priority for now, so he should be able to understand and wait for me if he really loves me that much.
Anywho, my mom bought me a beautiful yummy cake from Bread Basket (family tradition) and we drank some wine. We had some pancit, puto, ginataan and Ate Estelle made some diniguan (chocolate meat XD) and nanay made some laksa and some adobo. For some reason, my mom always manages to cook something no matter how busy she is. She had work today, but was still able to make all that food. My dad also helped make puto and ginataan. We went to church while my dad made the puto. I got to wear my other cute shoes :). At around 1pm some guests arrived. I didn't know my mom invited anyone. We watched Transformers. It was pretty good. If they deepen the storyline a bit, I think it would be much better though. It's a bit focused on Shia's character Sam. I am still miffed about the fact that Optimus Prime never says "Autobots, transform!" and there was no hint of the original theme song anywhere in the movie! I was sorely disappointed. Plus Megatron doesn't turn into a bazooka. How sad. Anyway Harry seemed to like it a lot and couldn't take his eyes off the screen.
Check it out.
