The birthday salubong was spent at the Lorenzos' Solid Party held at their house. For the past few years, I was always at my place with friends during the salubong, but this year I was pretty glad there was a change of setting. What made the change even more exciting was the fact that it was at a Lorenzo party, and those annual parties of theirs really never fail. Unlimited Dencios, Teriyaki Boy, Yellow Cab and Pancake House + drinksdrinksdrinks and greatgreat company. Now how can you not enjoy?
THE BIRTHDAY
I spent my day at home resting and trying the gain back the energy I used up the night before. Once late afternoon hit, I was up and ready to head to Rockwell with Anton, but unfortunately pressed time and traffic just got in the way. My birthday really isn't travel friendly. It's probably the worst time to move around because everyone is just hitting the malls and doing their last minute shopping for Christmas Eve the next day. According to my mom, they even closed the skyway years back on the 23rd because they had to cut down the number of people taking it--it was that bad. Because of this, Anton and I decided to stay down South instead, hear mass, and head to dinner.
* Birthday dinner was Japanese, of course, so we ate at Nishijin and had their Friday Japanese buffet.
