Another Night of Fun!

For weeks, several high school batchmates of mine have been bugging me to give them the details of our Christmas reunion this year. Even when I tell them that I am not the organizer this year, they ask me to inform them anyway. Since nobody was really willing to do anything about it, I was forced to make decisions and announce the plans. We were going to meet at Penong's Sta Ana branch at 6:30 pm last night for dinner. Come 6:30 pm, only Wenna Reuyan and I were there. Then, people started coming in. Bbboy Canusa, Mark Lura, JJ Madolora, Lok Abundo, Angie Zafra, Niña Aborde, Weng Estero, Ronald Gumawa, and Neil Siarot joined us for dinner. The food was so-so, the kinilaw had a weird soap-y taste, and the grilled pork chop was kinda tough. The iced tea didn't have any ice. The service was KAINIS! Anyway, some people were kinda generous in paying for their dinners so some of us (not me though) had a free dinner. Yey to those with big salaries!!! As we were leaving Penong's Rhoda Alvar arrived. We then proceeded to Jickong's a drinking place. LOL! Mimi Alonzo, Mae Cabahug, and Et Pasia…

It's CHRISTMAS!!!

I'm tired and sleepy. I'm not feeling well. I still have tons to do. I am working at Basti's Brew right now, and I have to attend a "family reunion" at 7 pm. But I'm happy, happy, happy! I am thinking of getting my first-ever foot spa. Hmmm... Last night was not really eventful but it was delicious. The food was great. We had different kinds of cheeses and cold cuts. YUM! Then, we had puttanesca and seafood pasta, lechon, and ham. For dessert, I ate chocolate pie and chocolate ganache from Lachi's. Then, we had our exchange gifts. Greggy, Ate Ina's husband gave me a pair of red Slim Havaianas. It's so nice, I'm wearing them right now. I also received some cash from some of my titas. And a pair of green earrings from Luan. I also got to down a handful of glasses of beer which put to sleep when I arrived home at around 3 am. This morning, I went straight to Daddy and Mommy's house where I received a nice black handbag from Mommy, and a personalized keychain from Mae-mae. The handbag is exactly the size I want. YEY!!! I love it. Then me and…

Some Things I am Thankful For

It's one day before Christmas Eve, and I'm feeling great today. It's like there are endless possibilities out there and I'm bound to have some great days ahead. Despite my problems, angst, and bitterness, there were are things I should be thankful for: I am grateful for the people around me. I've already thanked them before but I think they deserve another mention: my cousins, especially Gwing, Luan, Kuya Andrew, John and Cherry, Cha, Brian and Aimee, and Mae; my aunts and uncles, Mommy and Daddy, Tia Mila, Mam Bebs, Tita Teri, and Tita Ivi; my friends from high school, Neil, Mae, Catet, Wenna, Bbboy, JJ, Kate, Erwil, Ace, Mikong, and Twy; my forever bestfriends Joey and Tiani; my friend from college, Lucky; my SJL Boys, especially Papi, Aiwem, Jobo, Brylle, Toti, Elmer, and Landz; the Sta Ana boys, Pics, Pido, Talong, and BJ; the BT boys, Jay, Rioren, Topher, Cocoy, Chian, Jeztah, Duke, Badz, Adi, Burnz, and Yuki; the other DotA boys, Jay, Brian, Jaffet, Totzkie, the Tagum boys, the Kidapawan boys; my colleagues in Seattle, especially Sis Lysette, Sis Palle, Levi, and Glenn; my employers, Seattle, Brian aka APEX, Kuya Andrew aka Alleba, and Boss Johnny; my landlords…

Christmas is Almost Here

It's December 21, 2007, three days before Christmas Eve, four days before Christmas day. But I can't feel the Christmas spirit. I am doing a lot of things, thinking about a lot of problems, and rushing to beat numerous deadlines. As I grow older, Christmas and other holidays become more boring, and more stressful. When I was younger, Christmas used to fill me with excitement and joy. And no matter how sparse the celebration was, no matter how few the gifts I received, I was happy. Now, Christmas is becoming more and more stressful. I still haven't bought any gifts to give, or any clothes to wear to those parties. I still don't know which parties I am going to, when, where, with whom. I don't even know what I'll be doing on Christmas day. Still, there's a part of me that is excited. The other night's fun, fun night with some of my high school friends only made me more excited to spend more time with more of them. That can only mean more fun, alcohol, gossip, and photo ops. Then, there's the gifts. Ok so, I won't probably get any big gifts this year. And I won't get…

Not a Good Day… YET!

I woke up with a visit from my favorite friend... dysmenorrhea. I just spent about 30 minutes under the heat of the sun... waiting for a taxi cab while holding my bag, and my laptop bag. AMF! I arrived at the office and found out that DotAStrategy.com is down. :( But the day is not over yet... I'm eating at Zakoya later for the Davao Food Trip. And the meal is a Japanese Buffet. And it's for FREE!!! YUM! Then, I'm meeting up with some of my high school boys afterwards. Oh, yeah! Do I sound like I'm being fake? Because I am. HAHA!
