I have a feeling that I was born on a Friday, and so it was when I queried about an online calendar that traces back which day of the week fell a certain date. Friday was the day when my parents named me Marlene for some reasons, or it was by chance when they thought that the names of their children should start with letter M. My mother said my name should have to be Mylene as what they said to the hospital where I was born, but was surprised to see Marlene on the birth certificate. Since the two names rhyme anyway, she didn’t bother to change but used Mylene as my nickname. It’s quite confusing cos my elder sister’s name is Marilyn but it actually worked well when we were in school, though some would spell my name as Marlyn. Think about having Marlene Dietrich and Marilyn Monroe in the family, eh? Hahaa!
I may not have cakes and ice cream to share with you but I have some awards I received from the two valuable blogger-friends that I would like to share instead and perhaps pass on you. Thanks to Amor and Rozella for these wonderful awards. You are one of those people who inspire me to blog through all these years.
Award from Amor
Award from Rozella
As my colleagues and I used to joke around on birthdays in a strange English, “you are all invited to eat my house, including my family.” 🙂
Happy Birthday Marlene!!! 🙂 I hope you have many many more wonderful years to come. *hugs hugs*
Thank you, Rozie. I do hope so.
Oh btw! Thanks so much for the award!
Rozella, I got this award from you, remember?
Happy Birthday! May you have many more blessed birthdays to come. God bless you always.
Thank you, Mel. So nice of you to come and greet me.
Yan pala ang story ng name mo friend.
Inaabangan ko talaga ang comment sa yo sa Friendster, baka sakaling matyempuhan ko ang birthday mo hehe. Exactly kahapon pagcheck ko, may nagcomment sa yo, birthday mo na pala.
Happy Birthday! Pang tatlo ka sa mga friends ko na may birthday ng Nov. 28 kaya naka memorize na yan haha.
Thank you, friend. Hehee, oo yung mga nakakaalam lang sa b-day ko ang nakakagreet sa Friendster dahil naka-off ang b-day reminder ko.
Talaga ha, ang dami ko palang kasabay. May kasabay rin ako na estudyante ko dito. 🙂
Hi Marlene,
Belated Happy birthday. May you God bless you with more birthdays to come.
Ana, thanks a lot! Nakahabol din ang greetings mo, hehee!
I remembered when I posted an entry from my previous blog regarding Valentines Day, I mentioned na kaya pala daming may bday ng November and you commented that you were born on November – well, HAPPY BDAY ate ko! We may not know each other personally, pero I consider you one of my special online buddies. I wish you good health as always and happiness with your hubby.
Thanks so much, Mary. How sweet naman! Teka, November ka rin ba? I’m so glad I’ve found you here sa net. 🙂
