This is not my first though I’ve been celebrating several birthdays away from my family since I got a job most especially when I was still an IELTS instructor. I can say that I am getting used to this but this time, I am really far away from my family. Way back when I was still in my home country, I always have the luxury of time to call my parents and have long talks about anything. This time I can say everything is limited for me. I have to save as well of course. I am glad though that the people at school I am working with are so friendly and I actually feel that as if I belong to a family. I like everything at school. Since today is my special day, they really prepared something small and sweet for me. One Chinese staff just gave me a cute cake and our CM gave me a couple Mickey and Minnie with hearts. I was so touched as I said many thank yous to them. But of course nothing compares when I could have celebrated my natal day with my family. For a Filipina like me, I always value family. It’s deeply rooted I beleive for all Filipinos. :) Oh by the way, here is the snapshot I took of the sweet gifts I received today. :)
