I’ve never been someone celebrating my birthday, because of past experiences that turned sour for me. You know the type of birthday where you planned something long before to be sure that your friends could make it. Well, that time they all forgot about it and I was left alone going to the theater to hide my sorrow! That was 15 years ago and since then I’ve never celebrated my Birthday ever again!

This year 2012, I don’t know why I was excited for my upcoming Birthday. I wanted to do something even if it means doing it by myself.

After all, I was turning 35. I went to a make-up session at Sephora, then treated myself with some Caribbean foods at Cha Cha Chicken in Santa Monica, CA.

I decided to go then to the Nail shop, because believe me or not but I never have had a manicure in my life; it was my first!!! I was nice, maybe the experience would have been better if I had gone to a better one, but for a first it was okay!

2PM at my clock and I wanted to do more, so I decided to treat myself with a movie; I saw ” Chronicles”. It was not the most entertaining movie of the year, but I like it and left the room with the desire to want more out of life!

Time is still flying by and soon it will be dark and I was starving again. I went to Maison Richard to get some French foods as a take-out diner; it was delicious!!!! Everything remained me of my French foods habits back home!

Well, that was it. That was my Day, of course it would have been great to go out in some kind of nightclub or some sorts or to have a boyfriend to share it with but well, you can’t have everything you want in life, at least for my part! Nonetheless I was satisfied with my day somehow!!!!
I will never forget it.
