I had to work the night before my birthday so I basically welcomed my day in the office. It was not that gigantic of a celebration as I don't like big gatherings. Besides, I didn't have much of the financial aspect to throw a large party for the small number of people I know.
So, ayun, trabaho pa rin na parang walang ganap. But then, may GANAP nung umuwi na ako sa flat kasi yung pamilya ko dito sa Dubai, naghanda ng surprise. And in fairness, I was surprised at na touched pa ako sa effort. Imagine, they went out in the middle of the night just to buy a cake, some party favours and decorated the flat pah! Effort kung effort ang mga otao! :)

| Thats the family I have dito sa Dubai. Do you see how the three of us connect? Parang tanga lang noh? ANG SAYA! :p |
 |
| Here I am! With my cake, party hats and some balloons! Kakatuwa talaga ang umagang iyon! |

Then, nagdinner kami sa Red Shrimp Restaurant na malapit lang sa amin, sa Burjuman Centre. It was our second time to eat here pero this time, may karaoke nights na sila! I was excited for the Karaoke Night pero we didn't have the chance to get hold of the microphone at all. Pero ok lang yun, hindi din kasi kami nagpractice for our numbers (kung nakapag-rason lang noh?! CHOS!).
The place was nice, cozy and very private. Maganda talaga at sakto lang siya sa bulsa. Yung nakakatuwa pah eh Kabayan at Bisaya pa talaga yung nag-serve sa amin. Ang galing dibah? Hindi na kami nahirapan sa pag-order at pagtanung about sa Menu nila! Keri lang!
 |
| Ang ganda ng Menu nila noh? Parang tabloid lang eh. Give na natin yung creativity sa kanila! |
 |
| Heto naman ako. Naninigas sa gutom! Halata sa pes ang pagka-PG noh? Kawawa! :P |
 |
| Ito naman yung dinning stations nila sa al fresco. Ang ganda dibah? parang nasa house lang noh? |
 |
| Yung peg ng place, parang fish port siya or pier for fishing vessels kaya may salbabida. FYI: walang pool dito o dagat! |
|
 |
| AT ITO PAH! Ang cute ng place mat nila noh? Nakaka-bagets talaga ang cartoons! Kaso di ko sila knowing pero keber! HAHA |
|
Yung pagkain naman nila mostly is seafood. Although there is no specific na cuisine, crustaceans yung specialty nila dito. Ang masamang balita, allergic ako sa ganitong food pero since trip ko ito, wala nang basagan ok? I just took some meds after ng ganap namin dito.
 |
| Ito yung na-isipan naming i-order kasi hindi na naman bet yung ibang nasa Menu nila. In fairness naman, sakto lang sa bulsa at sa tiyan namin lahat ito. |
 |
| This is the Grilled Chicken Fillet. It comes with with spiced french fries at naka-soak sa barbeque sauce. NOM-NOM-NOM! |
 |
| Ito naman yung Seafood Platter nila. It has Calamares, Pandan Shrimps, Fish fillet, and Seafood Rolls. May dips din itong Aoli at Sweet and Chili. This order is good for 3 persons. |
 |
| This is the soup that we ordered. Hindi ko nakuha yung name nito pero GIVE ko ito as pambungad sa lafang sessions dito. It's sour and spicy at the same time kasi. Bet ito ng mga mahilig sa Thai cuisine. |
 |
| At ito naman ang talagang PAK sa gabing ito! After dinning, we had a complimentary desert - Pan Cake! It's like a roll of ice cream in pan cake topped with almonds and choco-caramel syrup. Masarap siya pero di ko bet yung early melting time niya! HAHAHA - you just have to eat it ASAP! :P |
This is my first birthday outside of the country at malayo talaga sa dating kingdom na kinalakhan ko. Of course I got homesick pero I am also thankful kasi may family din ako dito. I am very thankful kasi yung FB ko ay mapuno ng pagmamahal, yung twitter ko naman ang nagkaroon ng buhay at ang birthday ko naging memorable! To God na laging nandyan sa aking tabi all the time at to my family and friends who have been there for their support, SUPER THANK YOU! Napasaya ninyung lahat ang birthday ko and I am looking forward for more birthdays with all of you!
