One Year Older Me

Whether I like it or not, I can't simply deny the fact that I am one year older. Yes! today is my BIRTHDAY! yahoo...Twinks do have a birthday you know. Well, today is just one of those ordinary days; nothing special; I am not motivated and not in the mood for a celebration. When was the last time I celebrated my birthday with a blast? hmmm....Long time ago I reckon. So don't ask me what are my plans for today, coz there's one. Of course, I am thankful to God for another year in my life. I am so blessed.
Btw, I went to Unionbank this morning to apply for an Eon Card - I really did it on purpose to apply on my birthday. To my dismay, they said I will be able to get the card after a month max because of the holidays. Well, am not in a hurry anyway. I just thought it would be useful to get one. From the bank, me and my cousin walked to the church to light some candles.
My birthday wish? SECRET...
