Wow, thanks a whole bunch guys. Sorry for the late acknowledgement but i absolutely had no time to get on the net anytime yesterday, since i was literally on m feet the entire day. Pretty tiring too, because i had to hit the ground running after my shift ended. Taking my work team out for breakfast, meeting up with some chums from high school for lunch, treating some other friends to merienda then heading home at 4pm to get food ready for the main event. Needless to say, i'm going on a diet for the next couple of weeks. 
Rant - half a month's pay, down the drain (or other people's stomachs to be more precise) in just a little over 24 hours.
Sigh...24 years old. At least i can be thankul that i'm at an age where i can fully appreciate the benefits of being an adult while still being young enough to be relatively carefree.
Also, one of the more awkward moments in my life so far took place yesterday afternoon. I was in the kitchen with my brother helping out with the food preparation. I was in the middle of chopping up some stuff for the pasta sauce when an aunt of mine came up and suddenly gave me a hug. I then realized that there were tears running down my face. She said that it was alright to cry if my parents couldn't be with us on my birthday. She said that everything was okay, that at least my other relatives and friends would be around soon enough. She just held me, kissed me on the forehead then left, leaving me and my brother with silent WTF-type looks on our faces.
That encounter was so heartwarming and sincere that i just couldn't tell her that the only reason there were tears falling was because i was slicing up some onions.
