uwah! forgive me for not updating lately. D: if not busy, tumblr and facebook encompases much of my time. haha. so sorry. :(
july came and went i’m so sorry for not updating on my 18th birthday (i updated it in my tumblr account, so if you’re interested to read, follow mytumblelog: mademoisellemusikera.tumblr.com)
should i post pictures? i’m to lazy to type everything happened. lol. oh, okay, pictures. :D but one thing i would tell you, my crush went to my party and became my LAST DANCE!
oh myyy. seems like i’m going to start ranting. :))
well, i really had in my mind that he would be my last dance. of course, to savor that moment that we’re alone (not literally, but you get it), dancing, with my hand on his, etc etc. i told my birthday plans in general to my friends. they said to me, the father should be the first dance, and the special someone would be the last. i froze. he is my special someone, alright. so, i mustered all my courage and he really became the last dance, no objections or anything. haha.
here are the pictures. :)
with dad :)
first dance: dad! :)
saving the last dance. :)
my eighteen roses didn’t reach eighteen (haha, yeah i know i’m friendless. just kidding. :D) it’s just that i’m not really friendly with guys. there were 15, i think, roses and I just chose some of those pics. lol.
the emcees, my sister (left) and close friend (right) :D
the candles! :)
excuse those two. they really insisted to be on the candles instead of roses. :D
my violin student. :)
my bestfriend! :) seriously, she cried while we were hugging (and i got teary-eyed myself!)
i owe this girl a lot. another best friend of mine. :)
my *cough* daughter. actually, one of my daughters. :))
another daughter of mine. :)
my youngest sister
my lifelong seatmate, close friend, confidante, and long lost sister (haha!)

with my sisters. :)
the epic icing fight! :D
with...him. haha. :))
see his hand? :D
the trio! :)))
it was soooo much fun! if i were to put all the pictures that night here, it would take me a decade. HAHA. i really thanked all of these people that they really attended (and even bothered to give gifts!) phew. i also thanked my parents for throwing the party. even though it was simple, it was the best birthday party i had. :))
Nice , fun birthday pictures! I’m sure it was great. Happy Borthday, belated this maybe.
Cheers from California !
thank you sooo much! :)) really enjoyed it. it was the best birthday of my life. and because we really celebrate whenever girls turn eighteen. hahha. legal day. :))
in your place do u also celebrate eighteenth birthdays for girls? i mean, u know, with a formal program, dancing with eighteen roses (guys), hugging with eighteen candles (girls), etc.? :)
Sadly, we don’t. But Hispanics , Mexicans most especially, celebrate Quincenas ( 15th ), and this age is their coming of age and is celebarated with big parties, like a debut.
ooooh. i see. i thought it was sixteen, ‘cuz some dub it as “sweet sixteen” so i thought that was their coming-of-age. hahaha. :))
Except the Mexican Quincenas, we don’t celebrate any coming of age here. I do know Filipino girls celebrate their 18th, yeah? My cousin sent us pics of the big party. They were all wearing gowns,,, wow !
yup. most teenage girls celebrate their 18th birthday, if they can afford it. with all the 18 roses for the guys, and 18 candles or treasures for the girl friends. then, the 1st dance (1st rose) should be the dad and the last dance should be the special someone. hahaha. sometimes it’s the perfect opportunity for the girls to ask their special someone as the last dance. like what i did. lol. :D
