Kathleen turns 18.
We decided to move my party the next day after my birthday which is April 19 :) It was a Burlesque themed party with STRICTLY NO WEARING OF RED ATTIRE. Ofcourse! Its my night, I need to be different. Charing! Haha! So it was my night, and I was trembling the whole night. Swear. Because i'm not used to wear heels. Seriously. So I said that my party is Burlesque themed, it was a failure cause only my production number are the Burlesque part of the event. Sorry guests! Kulang budget pang dancers :))

I really appreciated that you came. Although some of my visitors went home immediately after dinner, I understand :) Thank you po talaga. I hope all of you enjoyed my party cause I really had fun and enjoyed and loved it. Thank you! I'd like to ask for apology that I didn't sing. Pasensya. Anne Curtis ang peg ko if I'll sing. HAHAHAHA!
That was a night to remember. Thank you all :*
My 18th birthday was on April 18, 2013. As much as I want to celebrate it on that day but I can't because I have summer classes. So I decided to move it on April 20 cause its a Saturday. But the venue was already occupied. And the only vacant day for that week is April 19. And I have no choice but to take it. :)
My debut is only a one month preparation, Believe it or Not. We started talking with the organizer which Kuya Kelvin of CMK Creations on the last week of March 2013. As soon as my Final Exam was done, Me and my sisters started to prepare for the debut. Everyday, we were taking care of some stuff for the debut (invitations, their gowns, practices, and other props for the dance and costumes). Last April 18, I had my pre-debut shoot, thanks to Vista De Lente (Photographers: Mr. Rey Fortuna & Mr. Buen Sotomil) Its really tiring.. Almost everyday I was cussing and told myself "Sana hindi nalang ako nagdebut"
On April 18..
People started greeting me through Facebook, Twitter and via Text during midnight. I woke up early to attend mass to Thank God :) And there.. Father Francis pour lots of Holy Water on my head for blessings. After that.. People started greeting me "Happy Birthday" even though we don't know each other. Its really overwhelming :"> And since its a Thursday.. I have class. At school, people also greeted me. :"> And what's the best part is that.. My college barkada "TROPA" gave me a birthday cake and also a shirt :3
Unfortunately.. My sister has dengue and was confined at Doctor's hospital. But that didn't stop us from celebrating my birthday.. We celebrated my 18th birthday at room 348 and had a very simple celebration :)
As we can see, my photos didn't come out to look like Burlesque. First of all, my outfits are not likely for Burlesque themed photoshoot. Second, the venue was supposedly indoors and since Regency doesn't have a vacant room for us and we lack time to drive all the way to Garden Orchid hotel for indoor photoshoot, we ended up having my photoshoot outdoors. And lastly, I don't look like Dita Von Teese or Christina Aguilera. Hahaha! Thanks Vista de Lente Events and Lifestyle Photography! :)
The Debutant: Miss John Floyd Tabar Perez ^____^

On the sixth day of April 2013, Floyd celebrated his birthday at their house. 2 days after Nica's debut party. I was amazed and it was super awesome that they have a generator. Its also a part 2 of our Mini Chabanel Reunion :) Really had fun with them cause we had a chance to talk. And when I say "talk" its more of Chismis =))

I'd like to introduce the Debutant ^___^ Miss Danica Jane Follero. Here's her blog: http://nicafollero.blogspot.com/
On the fourth day of April 2013, Danica celebrated her 18th birthday at Lantaka by the Sea Hotel, Roofdeck. It was really fun cause we had a Chabanel mini reunion. There's Mae, Floyd, Dyn, Chai, Precious, Mary Joy, Azizah, Xandy, RJ, Jermone, Rafael and ofcourse Me! :D
That night, I felt like I was back in my high school years. Feels Great. How I wish we're going to have this mini-reunion every birthdays. I missed them so much :(
Next birthday goes to John Floyd Tabar Perez! ^_^
