Turning 25...

I didn't think it's possible to have a great birthday like the one I am having so far. I've been celebrating this birthday since 12mindnight at Indochine with a chocolate cake and a candle on top with my favorite Romanians and Mexicans-- and of course the German-Korean variety.

Getting home at 1am, another surpise awaited with Nacho and his coolest gift ever-- Pocket Scrabble! Anybody want to play with me?

My arrival to the office was greeted with millions of flowers and balloons at my desk! I am still taken aback! But no the celebrations didn't stop there--after birthday lunch with some beloved fellow interns (including carrot cake with Oliveira) I was treated to a great surpise with colleagues and friends armed with cake and candles in the training room.

This birthday has been all about nice suprises, LOTS of flowers, warmth of great friends and soon...time at the beach!

Thanks for the phone calls, hugs, sms, blog messages, emails, flowers, cakes and for just being great. I wouldn't mind growing old if I were surrounded by great friends like these every step of the way!

Some pictures to share:
