Visiting Atlantis.
Went to Atlantis last Wednesday at lunch to celebrate Ate Sally's
birthday with the office staff. The whole gang was there, even Ate
Janine. Plus Karen, who had already dropped by earlier that day. Yay,
there was the usual pancit and barbecue from Ineng's, and Lawyn and
Claire got Ate Sal this yummy chocolate cake.
Hahaha, considering it was Claire's birthday the day before, and Kuya
Boni's on Sunday, we made each of them blow the candle that was on the
cake. After that, it was finally time to eat, yay.
Bobby had arrived at around 1pm, and it was so funny when people had
said that it was Claire's birthday the day before, as everyone was
already teasing her to her current object of infatuation. When the
phone rang, who else could it be? Speaking of the devil, it was her
crush, calling to greet her a happy birthday. We all burst out
laughing, loud enough for the chiquita to hear. Wheee! Happy birthday
to y'all!
I love celebrating birthdays in Atlantis. I have at least 2 memories of
best birthdays with that company. First was Richelle's during our first
year working. When her birthday was drawing near, she had said that she
had never celebrated her birthday ever. So Ate Sal and I gave her a
little surprise party during lunch on the day of her birthday, which
made her cry. Aw.
Of course, the other best birthday was mine last year. The moment I found out that we also have an evening show of Avenue Q scheduled on the day of my birthday, I was pretty upset that I wasn't
going to have any time for myself on my birthday. Anyway, I bought
lunch for Lawyn and Kuya Boni, and by the time we arrived in RCBC, I
got a surprise phone call from Ate Sally in Dubai. And of course, the
best thing that night was Tad's surprise visit in the theater, complete
with flowers, cake and birthday gift, hahahaha!
Just sitting in the office the other day made me miss working there. I
have yet to write an entry about that. I'll do so another day when I
find the time.
