Mom Violy's Birthday Lunch at Mamou, Gateway 2

Carmina asked Mom Violy what kind of food she would like to eat for her upcoming birthday. Mom Violy said she was craving for a restaurant that serves steak and lobster. Carmina gave Mom Violy a list of restaurants for her to decide with a link of the websites for her to see which one look something she would like to try. One week before Mom Violy's birthday she made her final choice where she would like to try  Mamou . Carmina had picked up Mom Violy at her home before heading to Gateway 2 located in Cubao, Quezon City. Mamou is located ground floor inside Gateway 2. Upon entering the person asked if we had any reservations however, they do except walk as well was seated at the table of our choice.  The person had handed us the menu. Beverages Menu Bread and butter were served after we had placed our order. Our appetizer was the Mamou's Bacon Steak. Mom Violy decided to order her lobster tail with rice. Carmina had ordered Beer Battered Fish and Malt Vinegar with choice of pot

Happy Birthday


Today is a special day for me and I just realized how there is a lot of people who is there for you not to be next by you, but to read out all the birthday wishes.

There are times you feel all alone and not realize there are really people out there for you.

I decided not to publish my birthday in social media. I was testing everyone if they would just remember on their own.

There are a lot of families and close friends who have passed the test.

I had received so many comments and birthday wishes it was over whelming. I had to turn off my internet for awhile to catch up and breath.

I am thankful for everyone having to think of me on this day. To send me birthday wishes and call me up just to greet me even if we're far away from each other.

The best birthday gift was receiving not a gift to unwrap and open it, but a birthday greeting that took courage for people to actually do it.

My younger sister had emailed me asking for our childhood pictures at first I was curious why she was asking for it.

I was thinking it was some sort of project for her children's assignment or she was planning to use it for something else.

I only found out when I woke up that she used the childhood picture when we're kids. My mom said, I was seven and my sister was 5 years old at that time.

I couldn't figure out our age since the picture had no date when it was taken.

As you reach your birthday you get to celebrate it with two days one today Manila time and the United States the next day. In Manila we are one day ahead and United States they are behind either way you get to celebrate it in two places.

In the Philippines when your birthday comes any buffet Restaurant has a free meal for the birthday celebrate. The only thing you need to present is your identification card to show proof of your birthday with a picture.

Today, I had celebrated my birthday with my Aunt whose birthday is the same month.



We would like to thank everyone for our birthday wishes.
