Turned 25 today. Since my birthday is a Saturday, I decided to have a small celebration in the press office yesterday. The Finance Secretary was invited and when he dropped by to greet me, he asked if I had a date. My response: "Maghahanap pa po." And after giving my reply I was once again reminded of my age and the fact that I have never been to nor asked by anyone to go on a date.

I have never really been bothered much about being part of the NBSB (No Boyfriend Since Birth) club until recently when 1. I was reminded that my mom was married and had two kids at the age of 25 and 2. my friend Kat told me she would like to find someone for me.

I don't want to worry much because I'd like to think I still have five years and a lot could still happen. I say five years, because I think the time when I should start being alarmed about still being a member of the NBSB club is when I hit 30. But a part of me can't also stop thinking about what if nothing happens in the next five years?

Don't get me wrong. I don't want to be in a relationship with someone just for the sake of having someone you can call a boyfriend. I am not in a hurry. But I don't want to be complacent either.

There is someone I like right now.  Kat says we can hit it off.  But she also said I need to do something to be noticed.

Mika said I should give him a hint.

I guess there is nothing really wrong with giving him a hint. I just think that if I noticed him without doing anything, can he not see me in the same way I see him even if I don't do anything to be noticed?
