Here's to the best day of my life - Part Two
I'm not really sure if I'll be having more freedom or if I've grown taller or if anybody's giving me a bikini or a book or if anything historically significant after or if I'll have better grades next sem. Nobody gave me a free Green Tea frap. I wasn't able to meet Jeffrey Hernandez. Math100 was over (but I discovered I shared the same birthday with my other prof). I had no time to download all Havana Night songs. I wasn't able to hear Margot bark through cellphone. That someone I'd hoped to surprise me didn't do so.
However, yesterday was the best day of my life. I was able to cheer up kids at the ASCF Mango Tree House and I did a shoot. And because Ate Biancs didn't know it was my birthday yesterday, everyone started greeting me after my revelation haha :P I was also surprised by the numerous testimonials and text messages I was able to receive. AND, it didn't rain! ;)

*Girlssss. With Camille, Ate Biancs, and Nikka.
The 2bU! shoot yesterday afternoon was so far the funnest one I've done! I really enjoyed working with Ate Biancs, Tatin, Camille, Nikka, Alexis, Frank, and Jake. Watch out for it next week!
Camille was so kulit! First she was "flirting" with Tatin. Later on, she started victimizing me too by simply removing a leaf from my hair. And when I had to remove leaves from her hair too, she started teasing, "Yikeee!" And the rest was, well, between all of us who were at the shoot yesterday ;) (Oh, but she's still Tatin's, hahaha!)
Changing clothes in a car was one helluva struggle! Camille, Nikka, and I started panicking and laughing our heads off at the same time whenever a jeep would pass by!
I can't wait to see the pictures!
Thanks again, Ate Biancs! ;)

*Best birthday bash ever! My sibs and I with Alphie and Raph and the rest of the ASCF family.
After the shoot, we went to SM Annex to pick up Raph and headed straight to Mango Tree House (ASCF). When we arrived, the food was already there and Alphie came to welcome us. As we got to the rooftop to meet the kids, all of them were excited to see me. (Awww...)
So we had the usual fun and games until it was time to say goodbye. But before we left, Marlon made a speech in behalf of all the kids and I made one too. He said I made them really happy. They didn't know how much they made me happier. :)
And before we finally left after we took pictures, they sticked their name tags to my top. The name tags were too many the others had to stick theirs at the back :P
Thank you so much, Raph and Alphie, for emcee-ing, especially to Alpha who did the whole coordination with ASCF. Thank you also to all those kids who were all interesting in their own ways.

I'm glad I was able to make the most out of my 18th birthday.
I thought how I celebrated yesterday as a way of thanking Him for all He has blessed me with. I never knew I would still be the one to walk away with the happiest and fullest heart.
