Party like its your birthday! Oh wait, it is.

Good day so far, except for that whole working for a living part.

But received lots of "Congratulations" today from my colleagues and friends here, as is the typical way to wish someone a happy birthday in Portuguese. It makes me feel like I have actually accomplished something for living 32 years on this planet, so I quite enjoy this!

Now, to make the day complete, I really hope someone sings the birthday song tonight, because the song they sing here for birthdays is fantastic.

Parabéns pra você
Nesta data querida
Muitas felicidades
Muitos anos de vida

This song involves a lot of clapping and excitment and wishing of congratulations for your birthday. If someone sings the song, I will definitely be recording it.

Congratulations to you!
