But back to the birthday day (on 9th August) 😳 I made sure to advance order the cake online the day before (aka on August 8th) because I was in a ✨ rush ✨, before going to the cake store's location which is in a mall (ironically enough, it's the same mall where I used to work in a toxic workplace and environment so-- great heavens, the memory surge when I entered the mall was 'fun') to collect the cake! 

Apparently since August 9 is my mom's birthday AND my country's birthday, the store's policy has their cake delivery time from 12-6pm, and pick-up only from 6-10pm (why tf so late).
My doo doo ass was already broke enough from cake + transport (unlike USA, a lot of people use public transport to get to places here) + treating my mom at a restaurant so I was like "💀 .... man fuck delivery, Imma pick that shit up" asjdklwa.

Though, the pick-up timing was absolutely horrendous for me, good lord. Okay so, since it's country's birthday and stuffs.. there of course, is going to be an extravagant amount of fireworks in a lot of town and cities here. My town's scheduled fireworks happens at 8:15pm so I was like !!!! FUCK I GOTTA RUSH, I GOTTA SPEED MY WAY BACK HOME WHEN I GET THE CAKE 😭 and let me tell ya, that shit aint fun HAHAH, my legs literally felt like they were gonna collapse as soon as I arrived back home but naaay, I still have to head back out with the fam to watch the fireworks with them, sobs. Least to say at the end of the day when everything was over, I just.. collapsed, LMAO.

But yeah!! On that day, my routine was pretty normal and stuffs. Played Sky COTL as usual, hung out with the homies on Discord, until it was time to head out to get the cake 😳 it was around 5:30pm in my time when I went out of the house + 10-15 minutes to walk to the train station from where I live. I had to switch train routes like,,, two times cause there's train lines going through different direction and stuffs, so!! I eventually reached the mall's destination at around.. 6:30pm I think? If I managed to recall correctly yah!! 

I also made sure to take some pictures of the cakes they have on display when I was there before I collected the goods! Tadaaa   

I WAS!!!! TEMPTED!!!! TO GET THE MACARONS!!! 😭 I LOVE MACARONS SO I WAS LIKE-- AJKSNDMA but I refrained cause like,, I'm broke as I said hshsh
There was like two other glass sections that has cakes on displays too near this one but ,,, the lady was staring at me when I took a picture and I felt socially awkward so I quickly dipped and ran off after collecting my mom's cake 💀 (haha lmao you can see my cross shirt in the reflection). Fortunately enough though, I was in a call with my girlfriend RebornHydra at the time and I was video-ing everything in vc, so she's the fortunate soul that gets to see all the rest of the cakes as well as me; speed rushing my way back home ASKLJMDW -- basically she was there throughout the entire journey to company me and stuffs! Ty for staying you for me bae hehe   

WABAM GOT THE GOODS !!

But ya I,,, have to speedrun back home and I finally reached back to my apartment at 7:30pm 💀 I was trying to persuade my mom that I'm too tired to go watch the fireworks but -- she highkey insisted so i grnhnmh,,,
Around 7:45pm, we head out and walked about 15 minutes (my poor legs at this point) to the park where the fireworks will be launching at and!!! Mosquitoes!!! Hate em!!!   But the fireworks was -- honestly to me, kinda meh. The news said it'll go on for 10 minutes but the fireworks lasted like-- five or less at most. 💀 But as long as my mom and parents enjoyed it, then that's good enough for me hshsh

So went back home, and finally got this gurl open   

She's 57 this year!!! (I think, if memory serves me right 😳) but fuck it she's 1 in the picture /j

Taste review??? Hmmm 💀 well it's chocolate flavor on the inside (because I picked), but... it's very... creamy?? Like it's so fucking creamy WHEEZE , I don't know what they call it aaa my memory is bad-- like they use an excessive amount of fondant?? IS FONDANT THE RIGHT WORD-- MY ENGLISH IS BAD SOMETIMES LMAO --

The birthday night was fun and all (we don't throw birthday parties so it's just me, my mom and my dad) because we were standing there in the kitchen, wondering how to cut a two-tier cake HAHA

BUT HONESTLY!!! Thank you to all that helped WAA, it meant a lot! Especially to me friends that helped too   we still have  leftover slices in the fridge, so I'll probably help myself to a slice later since it's the middle of the night and I'm hungry hehe, thank you for making my mom's birthday this year great!! <3
