Pokwang experienced being a kid again during the surprise children's party on her 36th birthday last Wednesday, August 25, at Dad's Place, Scout Tuazon St., Quezon City.

-
Pokwang, or Pokie to her close friends, said she never thought her friends would throw the kids' party she never had as a child.
"Nabanggit ko minsan kasi na never akong nakaranas ng birthday
party noong bata pa ako. Kaya siguro ito
ang naisip nila, pambatang party. O, di
ba, freshness!"

When Pokwang entered Dad's Place, her friends and family greeted her exultantly, "Happy Birthday!" Utterly surprised, Pokie wept tears of joy.
