My Birthday. I turned 28 yesterday! I don't know how to explain the feeling I had been dealing with lately, but now it's gone. The only thing I can say is that I felt empty, deeply empty. I decided to spend the day at my sister's house so I can enjoy my niece's and my nephew company. I also went shopping and it helped me to feel a bit better and distracted. At night, my sister asked for pizza at home and bought a cake for me. The kids were so excited playing with some balloons... it was the best part of my day. I couldn't have a better gift than spending time with them. My mom also called me, she knew I didn't want to stay at home and that something was wrong with me. A few friends remembered my birthday, just the real ones remember a date like that... even more when it matches with an unforgettable day like 11/09. Now, I'm thinking that maybe is not the fact I'm getting older that makes me feel blue, is the fact that there are some social problems in my country that are affecting me pretty much, those problems are causing me the real problems I'm facing in my life.
