birthday surprise

January is a big birthday month for my family. The little one's birthday is on the 2nd, while my brother's, my mom's and my birthday is on the 11th, 12th and 13th respectively. We don't have time to recover from the holidays! My birthday next year is quite a big thing for me...I'm on to my last few months of being in my 20s. Yes, I'm getting old and it's the big 3-0 in 2 months! Eeeek! I haven't really thought of what I want to do...I already planned to go to the US, most probably in Spring (I'm not so keen with a Winter vacay), as a belated birthday treat to myself, but I wanted to do something on my birthday itself.

And just a couple of hours ago, everything was settled and I'll be spending my birthday here:


It was actually a spur of the moment thing. My sister was the one who suggested that we surprise my mom on her birthday with a vacation. It was a toss between Singapore and Boracay but since I'll already be going to SG next month, we opted for the beach - and it won't be just any Boracay experience, but a Discovery Shores one. And since my brother's and my birthday are just a day before and after my mom's, this would be our celebration as well.

Given that it's gonna be during the peak season just after Christmas, we had to book the resort and flights right away. And leave it to my sister, everything was booked in just under 30 minutes. My mom doesn't have any idea that my sis, brother and I planned a grand beach vacay on her birthday. Hope she likes it! :)
