I turned 24 last September 1! I didn’t really expect anything because of the pandemic, so I truly appreciate everyone who exerted effort and invested time just to make my birthday special.

If you’ve read my previous articles, you’d know that I’m not okay. A few days before my birthday, I was diagnosed with Depression (this will be for another article). Everything was just a lot to take in. I didn’t want to look forward to my birthday because I didn’t want to get disappointed. I had far more problems so I didn’t want to look at my birthday as another one.

To my family, thank you for being complete on my birthday! We are rarely complete and I genuinely loved it. Everyone’s presence was enough to make my birthday special. You filled the house with more colors. See you all again on kuya Alvine’s birthday!

To my deuxième famille, the Navarro-Musni fam, thank you so much for the surprise! I was literally dumbfounded. Thank you for still being with me after all these years! Hanggang dulo tayo ha?

To Pierre, you are wonderful beyond words. I know things are kinda heavy lately and I  thank you for your overflowing love and care. Maraming salamat.

To all my friends, whether in person or virtual, thank you for all the greetings! I may not be able to reply to every single one but I appreciate every single one of you!

Let’s go through these tough times together, everyone! We are all loved and cared for. Just keep going. 🌻

Also, special mention to my friend, Hobbie Sta. Ana, for celebrating with me! Mwah!
