acknowledgement of well-wishers (edited)

before another work week takes me far away from my medium of solace, i would like to dedicate this entry to the people who, in every which way possible, greeted me on my 32nd year of existence on this earth.  though i have already replied to them directly, i would still want to pay homage and honor those who would, in their busy and eventful lives, take the time out to greet lil’ ol’ me on mah birthday yesterday.  these are (in no particular order):

my family:  mom, lei, and patrick - my source of inspiration and my refuge in times of personal and professional stress.  love you all!

mommy jing - a former colleage who greeted me in advance this past tuesday.  i miss your cassava cakes!!

jessica "kim" tirado - the first person who greeted me at exactly 12 midnight as i was about to turn off my pc.  i really appreciate that this year, you were the first one to greet me.

raschelle esturas - one of my current colleagues who will also celebrate her birthday this week.  advanced greetings to you!

marianne grace garcia - also one of my current colleagues at wor.  yep, i owe you a venti white mocha frappuccino which you’ll get this week!

my cousins:  lynette, zaren, aileen, chey, arnel, debbie, malen, ryan, arnel, ian, yokie, dani, treck, faye, and matt - who were also my guests at my family party last night.  i can’t thank you enough for you being family.  to treck, faye, and matt, hope you arrive back in UK safely.  all of your relatives here will miss you!

melanie anne solisa - one of my one-downs.  thanks for your continued help and support at work.

casie jen casallos - who i also don’t know what married name you carry… i’m now admitting that this is my former agent who i fell in love with.  it doesn’t matter, she doesn’t like me more than a friend, period… even if history repeats itself.  thanks for the chat we had on the short time i went online on my birthday.  really appreciate it.  take care.

that’s it.  thanks to all of you listed above for greeting me and making my birthday a little bit more special.  i wish you all the very best and a lot, lot more.   you’re all a class act.

hope everyone has a good week ahead!
