#BestDayEver

Birthday Surprise + Banapple + Bowling + Burger King = BestDayEver

And since classes are finally over, we decided to treat ourselves. :) We had been saving up for the last month in order to have money to spend when this kind of event comes up.

BIRTHDAY SURPRISE

Since it was Tin Beo's birthday last April 5, we decided to surprise her. We made a thread in FB and planned something, but as always, just like any other birthday surprises we had, it didn't work out as planned. It wasn't a total disaster since she doesn't have any clue and was actually got surprised by our gifts and mini cupcakes. :)

Mini cupcakes from Cakes R' Us. 

Our birthday messages for Tin. Mine's the letter D!

BANAPPLE

It was my first time to eat here, and I have been craving for this since our Vday date. This was the main reason why we saved up money for a month and it was also the first time for all of us (except Tin). 

Here are the foods we ordered:

Bacon Fried Chicken Steaks with Milk'shroom Gravy (Tin)

Baked Creamy Cheesy Penne (Remedy)

Breaded Fillet of Cream Dory with Honey Thyme (Julierem)

Chicken Breast Parmigiano (Jan & RA)

Fettuccine Magnifico (Jan & RA)

Herbed Chicken Rolls with Basil Cream Sauce + Homemade Tea (Mark

P.S. All of us ordered Homemade Tea. ☺

Hickory Smoked Barbecued Country Ribs (Iya)

Lasagna Roll-ups (Cynthia, Joana & Emae)

Pasta Verde (Thi My)

Salpicao Rafael (Joana & Emae)

Trio of Sausages Fettuccine (Leana)

I got to taste all of the food (hahaha most of us did), and all them were so delicious, but of course there were some that I liked the most. I can recommend Trio of Sausages Fetticcine for those who love Carbonara. I also liked Hickory Smoked Barbecue Country Ribs most especially because of the corn. :P But we were a bit sad because we didn't get the chance to try their cakes because we were so full and we can't eat anymore.

BALS! (L-R: Yours Truly, RA & Jan)

Complete! Matino version

Complete! Wacky version

My girls with Mark the photographer.

We're not actually complete because Julie Sapungan had to do some errand and she was still in Cainta so she can't come, but RA made everything possible. :P HAHA

And now we are really COMPLETE!

THE BLOCK

Girl power!

You can never get the chance to take a solo pic when you're with them.

BOWLING

It was never part of the plan but we can't just go home after Banapple. We need to have more FUN! :)

My 3rd time!

Scripted Pose.

Me and my competition. :P Chos!

Yey! My Team ETMICR won! - Emae, ThiMy, Mark, Iya, Cynthia, RA

BURGER KING

Another unplanned meryenda. We were just so tired from playing bowling, and some of us wanted to eat light foods or sandwiches. But I actually don't know how we get here. :P Hahaha I guess I'm just so hungry. 

And that concludes our day. It was our BEST DAY EVER! I really wish that we could have more of these in the future. :) 

I LOVE YOU ISHOCKS! SUPEEEEEER!

After 5 years...

YES!

It is OFFICIAL. After 5 long years (I really felt i was a long long journey for me) of studying as an Accountancy student in FEU, I am finally graduating with a latin honor as a bonus. :)

I really can't explain how I feel. I am beyond happy. It is really an achievement for me. It has been my goal ever since - to finish my studies with an honor. A goal that I know would make my parents proud. And what makes this so special to me is also because, I had doubts regarding my honor when I lost my academic scholarship and wasn't able to maintain it after that,  and doubts about graduating because of my Tax subject.

My 5-yr road in FEU

During our recollection, we were asked to draw the road we took when we were in FEU as a student, and as the photo above shows, that was how I draw my 5-year road. For me, I had took a straight road from the gates of FEU to PICC where we will have our graduation, and I just had the other years of my life to be on the side of that road. But those stones showed my struggles throughout the years. I started with a foo prints from my firs year to second year, then on my third year o fourth year I started to have hand prints together with my foot prints for now I am experiencing the feeling of crawling because of what I had been doing, and for my last year, I am now lying and just trying to crawl like a worm because of how hard my last two semesters were to me. (and just like what my friends said, even in my drawing I am still corny)

During AudProb Finals. My FINAL exam in FEU.

I have experienced a lot of new things during my college years, though I know that those may not be as much as what others may have experienced, but for me it was enough to make me who I am now and enough to make me feel special and blessed after all. I gained and lost friends but I got to retain more. I experienced to be rejected and to feel lost when on the release of the unofficial list of qualifying exam passers I wasn't part of it. To feel the happiness when someone told me that for the official list, I was there. To be part of JPIA, and I must say this experience is one of my most treasured experience of all. No regrets. 

Graduation photoshoot BTS.

Now, in two months time, I will be facing another, yet exciting chapter in my life. For 5 months, I think, I will be preparing for the CPA Board Exam. And if I made it this far after 5 years, I know I can do it this 5 months. :)
