Chink Links

Today is my birthday and few have remembered that it is!
All those who remembered to greet me aside from my family are chinks (singkit. chinese/jap ). Coincidence or is it? Or maybe chinks have a tradition that they should greet the celebrant no matter what or else....we don't know. is it good luck to greet someone who is in distress about having a birthday?

first to greet was Serena Ang. She greeted too early. 2 days before my birthday she already messaged me. "how'd you know?!?!" i asked. someway or another, she just knew my birthday was to come.

Next to greet was Yumi Sanpei. She messaged me at exactly April 3. You can look in my inbox if you want and you'll see the time sent of the message 00:00:00 April 3, 2006. whoaaa. Talk about being on time, even to the second. I wonder how she did that. I really do. Did she send the message at exactly 12:59:58 April 2, 2006 so I can receive it at exactly 00:00:00? . This is supernatural stuff.

about 6:40am someone texted and greeted me. The number isn't registered in my phonebook (becuase i lost my phone before) and I find it rude to ask who the sender was. The message said "happy birthday, my dear" Who would call me dear?! Ginge does but her name is registered in my phonebook so it couldn't possibly be her. And hopefully at the other end of the phone isn't a man. I just replied "hey thanks Ü" whoever that is.. thanks.

Around 7am Gina Morabe greeted. She's my neighbor with the tiniest pair of eyes and the highest voice ever. I also asked her "How'd you know/!??!" . She then just said she knows.

At lunch my family and I went to Super Bowl, a chinese restaurant in Eastwood. Before we went in Super Bowl, there's a restaurant beside it named Ebisu, a japanese restaurant. My mum then asked which one we'd like to eat in. There's no other choice. Either one, it's still chink food. My mum ordered BIRHTDAY NOODLES and said I should be the first one to eat it before anyone else. It's good luck, she said. What's with the chinese theme on my birthday? I'm not even a bit chinese.

While having lunch, Claryss de Leon texted. She's a chink too with a small set of eyes. I asked her as well "How'd you know?!?!" ... she said "eh alam ko eh!"

After having lunch, Karla Co texted. I asked her the same thing i asked everyone else and they replied the same thing. they just know!! what the hell. how do they know?!

Late afternoon Kim Go greeted me. I didn't ask anymore how she knew. Espi must've spilled.

Chinks must be really good in memorizing birth dates.
