magka chat kami ni kati kagabi at sabi niya inaayos niya ang kanyang debut. at sa mga nakaraang araw napapaisip rin ako kung ano gagawin ko para sa 18th birthday ko.
oo, sinabi ko na wala akong gagawin. pero kasi, gusto ko talagang may gawin ako, kaya lang hindi ko talaga alam kung ano at dahil dun, wag na lang. perooo, GUSTO KO TALAGA may gawin. kasi nga sabi nila minsan ka lang magiging 18. at para sa akin yun ay mahalagang i-celebrate kasi 18 na ko! legal na ko! okay, may pumasok sa utak ko na idea. bad idea. :)) dahil legal na ko... puwede na ko makulong:D at! gusto ko matry:) not something big and scandalous. just something petty, but enough to put you in jail for a night. [i know, i'm weird.]
so anyway, para sa akin dapat i-celebrate ang pagiging 18 kasi nga legal age na ko, at parang transisyon ito sa aking buhay. from a really young adult to a semi-young adult:) ano raw? oh well. basta yun. kailangan i-celebrate ang pagiging adult sa paningin ng batas:) at kailangan baliin ang batas! :)) joke lang yun:D pero yun nga gusto ko talaga i-celebrate:(
at ngayon lang ako gumusto ng celebration para sa birthday ko. at hindi ko alam ang gusto kong gawin.:(
at dahil nga hindi ko alam ang gusto kong gawin, kinausap ko tatay ko. (email dahil siya ay nasa west africa ngayon... getting a tan:)) kidding:D) sinabi ko sa kaniya na yun nga, gusto ko i-celebrate pero hindi ko alam kung ano gagawin ko.
at sabi ni father dear:
ha ha ha,,,i would really like to say "yan kasi!!", but then it would
be fruitless and nonsense at this point...
here is my two cents worth..id say you get on with a small party with
THE FEW select friends..kaya lang on a second thought you dont have
that FEW friends, coz you have a barangay of friends..[infairness sa tatay ko, natawa talaga ko dito:)) i have a BARANGAY of friends]the consolation
i you can do without the relatives - at least the titos and titas and
other adults that usually would be invited when you go on with a
debut..
once you picked the chosen few, get weird by celebrating it in your
orthodox way..[so i guess my dad knows me:))] say go hike mt. makiling or ask for donations (old
clothes, food, old toys, etc) and go to an orphanage or home for the
aged and spend your bday there..an event that would make it vey
memorable and out of the standard way of celebrating ones debut...
for sure, debut party is out of the question coz its not gonna happen
anymore..you dont have the time and resources anymore..hows about
spending it with us...say we fly to hongkong!!! its a bargain sale
month in hongkong during that month..you and your siblings would be
able to make use of your passports..o di ba cool!!
I will of course give you money to spend for your stuffs..you do your
own budgeting and you choose what you want to buy..
id say you opt for the last choice..you will always remember your 18th
as associated with hongkong, passport and shopping galore!!

at sabi ko sa tatay ko:
i'd rather go to unknown and unvisited places in the philippines than go shopping in hong kong. no thanks. though the shopping is kind of a good idea. but then that would be like any other day for me.
and yes. i do have a barangay of friends. well actually close friends. and another thing about not wanting to have a debut is that i don't want to uninvite people. but then if i invite them i might not be able to hang out with them.
sobrang too bad ang birthday ko ay september. kasi gusto ko talaga magbeach with friends. yun talaga gusto ko. pero september yun. at magd-debut rin yung isa kong friend kasi sept. 19 ang birthday niya. sooo yun.
ang unang dahilan lang kung bakit ayaw ko mag debut kasi naiinis talaga ko kasi hindi ko alam kung anong gusto kong mangyari. but definitely i want to celebrate it. but since ang labo labo, wag na lang. kasi i have this philosophy, "when in doubt, don't!" :)) pero gusto ko talaga. at ayaw ko nung bibili lang ng something o kaya magbibigay lang ng pera kasi parang ordinary day lang birthday ko.
or puwede. i will celebrate my birthday alone:) diba fun yun?:D magr-road trip ako mag isa:) tapos yun. :)) ewan ko na. eh kasi naman ampangit ng birthday ko, may pasok. puwedeng summer na lang ako magcelebrate?
kasi dapat nung summer na ko magc-celebrate eh si mommy kontra. as usual. she's always against my weird ideas. she's so classical. i mean, classicla knowledge has been in a way modified. you have to think out of the box. and then you guys would ask anong natutuhan ko sa school? yun. to think out of the box, to be creative, to find yourself, to be critical, to think for your own, only thing in ateneo they teach you to use those knowledge for the greater glory of God. See? i'm actually learning. iba lang talaga yung perception ko.
so anyway... pag naasar ulit ako, baka ayoko ulit. siguro not exactly on september, but around this year i will definitely celebrate my birthday.
oooh!!! i really want to go to the beach with my friends:) and to a bar with my ateneo friends:)
and then for family, i will cook:D diba cool yun?
------------------------------------------------
so, that's what i want to do for my birthday. hopefully beach and bar:) at alam na.:)) funfunfun!
