I was invited to the 7th Birthday!
I am being problematic right now because despite my pagiging poorita ngayong buwan, there is this other problem that has come into my life and I didn't expect it. To be honest, I don't have much savings this month due to being inactive because I lost my appetite for everything after my Zebra died last July 16, 2022.
I'm still not okay now, but I'm doing my best to make myself better despite what happened. But it's hard to be fine, especially since I always remember him being on my side, always. But don't worry because I am still active (though not always). I didn't abandon publishing because this became part of my life too since last year. It makes me motivated to make my dreams come true by writing.
You can also see me on Discord, being very noisy there and spending my time forgetting all my problems and the reasons why I am depressed. Thanks to the new people I met there!
Anyways, for today's blog, I will share with you my problem. It's about money again, but this time it's not a rant about my family or to other people like how I usually write here. What is the problem?
I was asleep in the morning of July 25. My grandma woke me up, and so I decided to open my eyes even though I was still sleepy. My grandma said that something had arrived and it was an invitation. They already saw what was inside of the white envelop, and I was just the only one who hadn't seen it yet.
It was written, "To Ms. Jam" (not exactly my name, but that is my nickname). They claimed it was an invitation from a 7-year-old girl who would make her debut on August 13, 2022, and I was one of her 7 treasures. Woah! Reading the name of the kid,I was shocked because the year is so very fast. She'll be 7 years old next month! I realized that I looked so old now.
Now I have a lot of problems!
First, I don't have a dress to wear to attend the birthday celebration
I do have a lot of dresses, but most of them are not suited to the party theme. They are just dresses that you can only use to attend church. So, I need to buy some new clothes to wear, but I don't know what I will wear since I gained weight.
Option 1: The first thing that I think I can wear is coordinates and paired with white rubber shoes, but I am not sure if it will look good on me since I am worried about my stomach.
Option 2: Second is this long maxi dress, but I don't think it will look good on me since I am just 4'11.
Option 3: Is this Dress
I don't know, but I can imagine that it will look good on me because the dress is just simple and I don't like to look nagmumukhang mayaman.
Because this dress is from a known online seller, I decided to purchase it before it was stolen. This dress costs PHP 280.00 and I will pay it via Gcash.
Problem solved!
The next problem that I have is
What gift should I buy?
This is my first time attending the debut of a 7-year-old kid. So I don't know what gift I should give, especially since I am one of her 7 treasures.
Option 1: Vintage diary
I never had this experience as a child. Writing a diary because you know,a memory when we are still kids is special. One of my regrets is not writing those happiest moments of my life while I was still a kid, so I want her to have a vintage diary to keep until she becomes an adult and read those happy memories that she wrote when she became 18 years old.
Option 2: Vintage Clock Pendant
Since she is still 7 years old, one thing that I wish for her is to enjoy her life while she is still a kid. because time will come and she will become an adult in the future. I don't like her to rush and wish to become an adult just like how I wished when I was around her age. Another thing is, a clock is a symbol of creating happy memories with her loved one, and she should not ever forget our messages to her on her special night and carry those words until she becomes an adult.
Option 3: Personalized Pen
Well, when I give her a personalized pen, I want that to be symbolic of a story of her life. I mean, we all have our own different life-stories, right? She had a pen that had her name inscribed there and I hope she will remember her childhood memories starting when I gave it to her until the time that she can use it to write her life stories in her diary when she becomes an adult.
But my Mom says that I should give her a big teddy bear, and I realized that I'm so dumb for not thinking of that. The idea of giving her a teddy bear as a symbol of her as a cute, loving, kind, and caring kiddo The teddy bear will become her companion while she grows up, when she never had someone to lean on when she was not okay, and she will make that her best friend and my replacement when I am not around.
The problem is that I don't have any money to buy her a gift. Huhu, knowing how much the teddy bear costs, it's somewhere between 300 and 1000 pesos. I'm hoping that bitcoincash will surge around $200 next month so that I can have a budget for it.
And more importantly, my last problem is...
Speaking in front of a large crowd
I am an introverted person in my personal life. I don't have the courage to speak my message in front of many people. Mabubulol lang ako. I think it's rude to just greet her a happy birthday and just give her my gift, right? So, I want to prepare a birthday wish message soon. However, I just wish that I could already speak properly when it's my turn, and that is just the last thing that makes me worried.
Conclusion...
Attending birthday celebrations may make us worried because we don't have a budget sometimes, but we are grateful that there are some people who make us feel special by being one of the important people to celebrate one of the most important occasions in their lives.
Even though I am problematic about the budget for the gift, it's not a big deal because it's only a matter of money and I know that I can change it easily.
That is all for today! I just shared to you this and i hope you enjoyed reading it! Thanks for reading!
