You know I’d walk that thousand miles…

Yesterday, I had a date with my mum.  It was mothers’ day so we went out.  It was nothing fancy or what, just in the mall.  We were supposed to have pasta for dinner but due to some time constraints we’ll have it later instead.

We watched vanessa carlton perform in town. J I super love her.  I like listening to her songs and my favorite would be thousand miles.  I’m pretty sure you know that track since it was her first song plus it has this marlboro sound in it. haha!  It also played in white chicks with latrell crying ‘coz that was his favorite song daw. haha!  I watched that flick with baru right after our dlsu exam. L  Talagang nakipagsiksikan ako kasi na-late kami ng konti ni mum.

She was awesome. J I like that she plays the piano, one frustration I still deal with.  People were enjoying her.  Too bad I didn’t insist in bringing mum’s fone.  She doesn’t need it naman daw and I didn’t borrow the gigicam from ate.  So I didn’t have any photos of her performing.  Sad but all good.  At least I saw her perform and just loved it!

Thousand miles is my favorite song for all my fellas and cousins who are far away from me.  I got teary-eyed while she was playing it.  I missed all of them all over again. haaay!  Shout-out to baru, titan and yzuelte.  “If I could fall into the sky, do you think time would pass me by? ‘Coz you know I’d walk a thousand miles if I could just see you tonight…”  You know that right?? 

After she played thousand miles, which was like the ninth song, we left.  I heard her sing pretty baby, white houses and a whole lot more. J  We went to a nearby Church to hear a Mass.  After that, we went to the grocery to buy the pasta ingredients and went home. We had a different dinner but was still yummy! J ‘til then…

p.s
I salute all the wonderful mothers out there! J

This is the life ;)

I’ve been ranting almost the whole week about what a waste my summer is turning into.  I finally got the best answer last saturday.  kath (qtie) and dawn threw a partey to celebrate their birthdays. J They are our may celebrants.

It took them only two days to get everything for the event.  They had a general cleaning last friday and the party was the next day.  That only goes to show that if something wants to be done, it can be done as long as you put effort in it.

No one lives in that house since dawn moved in to her gran’s place.  I guess the resident ghosts got the biggest shock with our rowdiness. hahaha!  The house was still a bit of a mess but it was good enough for a party. J  Congrats to qtie and dawn for a great job!

I came in first at around 6.30pm.  Okay, the call time was at 6pm but it was expected that people would come in late.  The three of us did a last minute clean-up of whatever is still dirty or dusty.  We moved some fragile vases in safe places, removed the figurines and candles in the center table so we could use it.  Then it started to rain, big time! haha!  ate jean came in next and we were teasing them that no one’s coming ‘coz of the heavy downpour.  Thankfully, it stopped after 30 minutes or so. 

People started to pour in and next thing we knew we had a house full of happy people. J  I don’t know if I wanted an empty or a full house.  When it was just the seven of us ( kath, dawn, jean, diane and his “friend”, francis, lo mans and i), the house was manageable and when everybody else was there, it was totally chaotic! haha! J  Well, I guess I prefer the latter ‘coz like what they say, the more the merrier.

Plus diane’s “friend”, francis and lady’s boyfriend, jp.  kuya michael and his girlfriend karen, ej (dawn’s cousin…) and dawn’s three friends who I don’t know the names. Thanks to dawn hindi pinakilala!sweet di ba? haha!

***IF I missed anyone, I’m really sorry for my lousy memory. L
           
It’s probably the first house party we had with no adult intervention if you know what I mean.  dawn’s kuya and his girlfriend were there but that doesn’t count ‘coz they’re just outside happily drinking and didn’t give a f*ck in what where doing.  Non-stop kainan, inuman session, kwentuhan and videoke all night long. J

Of course there will always be the pasaways.  Like someone who had a lot of alcohol intake for a night thus getting tipsy.  Plano naman daw niya maglasing, yun lang siyempre nagulantang mundo namin.  Kaya dinala muna sa taas para matulog.  Then there were two fools who did some burning.  It just hit me after the party.  That explains the bloodshot eyes eh. tsk, tsk! haha!

We wrapped it up at around 4.30am.  The mess was overwhelming but we managed. People are still on party mode, so we headed to bren’s place and chilled there.  When the sun was finally up, we called it a day.  It was one helluva fun.  This is the life! J  I’m finally back.  More of parties like that okay? ‘til then…

Please naman

Summer is my favorite time of the year. It's the time I get to have a break from school (what a relief!). It's also the time to do whatever I want-bask under the sun! A couple of weeks already passed and I still haven't soaked up the sun. I don't mind if it's on the beach (but it would be the best) or in the pool. I just want to enjoy summer and for me the best way is to be under the sun.
I am getting really bummed with being stuck at home. My brother's been to Baguio last week. My mother's in Cebu right now and is probably on her way home now. My sister's going to Galera for the weekend. My father called me this afternoon. He is in Negros and told me he was on the beach! Talk about inggit!
Aside from the fact that I am a loner home buddy, our puppies are wreaking havoc all over our place! I have to feed the fish, give the pups "snacks", cook lunch (yes I do!) and whole lot more. I don't mind that if only I could just get some sort of reward. So please naman, make my summer worthwhile. Let's go out, swim or just even chill over someone's place. Hear me, hear me? I'll be waiting. Sulitin na natin ang summer guys! 'Til then....

Wasn’t bad after all =)

The first of May turned out to be boring but fun before the day ended.  It was a holiday so what a great time to go out and see friends. =)  Most of them are busy with summer duty, school (trimesters) or ojt.  As much as I want to go out, what good would that be, if everyone’s busy.  No bad feelings there. =)  Could you imagine all of april I’ve just been out for one time?  Not typical me huh?  For once I was a homebuddy during summer.   So now that may’s here, I‘m going to make sure we’ll catch up with all the missed opportunities.  This is the last summer break we have after all.  OMG! Next year graduates na kami. whoa! =S
I sooo wanted to soak up the sun.  No beach trips, chillin’ in the pool, so you can see how I looked forward to this gimmick.  I told them we’ll be out swimming in tropical palace.  As expected, call time was not followed.  To top it all of, the three chicas who’s present all had that time of the month.  What a bummer! =S So we told the boys they’d be the only ones who’s going to swim.  Then in rained!  Nagkatamaran na sila dahil di rin naman daw kami magsswim.  dota na lang daw. Great, just great. So we went to a net caf and they played.  naj, kuya mac and I went to kfc to eat ‘coz we don’t want to be bored to death doing nothing while they play.
We ate at kfc then went to tropical for kuya mac’s fit n right drink then to ruins.  kuya mac’s been upgraded to dad status. haha! Pinagttripan ako na anak niya.  Patawa tinanong ako kung anong gusto ko:  (clears throat) “What do you want?” At kailangan english talaga niya yun tanungin.  I couldn’t find my lollipop so I didn’t get anything.  After ruins, we went back to the net caf and they were still not done.
We waited outside.  There was a bench there and when we couldn’t take the heat anymore, we went inside.  A couch there was for waiting. We talked and talked.  Finally, mac got sooo bored and decided to just go back to his gf’s place.  So naj and I were left.  Thank heavens wongki was on the way.  lj was trying to make up for the dull moment by staying with us while all the other guys played.  wongki just said hi to everyone else and we left for nikki’s.
Apparently, nikki was still out with her family and so we just waited there.  Funny how guys think.  They can be soooo slow (no offense meant). nikki finally came and it took her a couple of seconds to understand the conversation.  We even connected with out even talking.  wongki and lj were wondering how come girls get to talk with out actually speaking.
Finally our conversation ended and it was time to eat.  We couldn’t decide where to until we ended up with chowking at santana grove.  When we got there, lj was like yellow cab na lang  but it was a little pricey.  Everyone’s working on a tight budget.  So we went to chowking and we couldn’t decide what to eat.  lj again suggested to just take yellow cab.  nikki talked to him that he shoulders half of the bill then it’s deal.  While he was thinking about it, I suggest we share half of the bill. Wawa naman little brother ko.  Sabi niya game na daw siya na half sa kanya tapos sabi ko hati kami.  Oh well, it’s fine, so it’s settled. =)
We ate with gusto.  Yumyumyum pizza!  I then asked lj to buy me a frap instead.  He said he’d think about it.  I asked him to pay for the other half and he said he’ll see after we eat.  Finishing the pizza wasn’t an easy task, at least for me.  Don’t get me wrong, I love, love pizza! =))  But it was just too much and I had to finish what they placed in my plate or I won’t get my frap.  Talk about force feeding. haha!  I really wanted my frap so I finished my pizza. =)
We grabbed my frap and wongki had a latte.  naj was craving for a sundae but the store was already closed. We chilled for a bit until we finished our drinks talking about a lot of things.  We called it a day at around 11pm ‘coz naj and lj have their obligations (meaning ojt and duty) the next day.  I must admit I felt pretty bad ‘coz I didn’t get the bonding that was planned.  dota was better…hmmm… But then again it wasn’t bad after all the fun we had during the night. =)  Hope we get to do that again with the rest of the crew. =)

Nabuhay naman ako doon ;)

I was busy reading the deathly hallows the other night when I got an SMS from a good fella. Nagtext siya nung hapon ng musta pero dahil hindi ako naka-unli at kuripot ako, ‘di ako nagreply.  So the second time that he texted, I replied mainly because of the context of his message.  He was asking if I knew this certain person, my sunny days.hahaha!  I strongly thought that this was something to do with ding.  I never told kuya mac about it.  So I thought he might have shared it with him to tease me.
I kept on telling him stop trippin’ on me and told him that I’d catch him some other time ‘coz I was not on unli.  He still kept on asking me about that person.  I ask him to use the other boy’s fone to text me.  A few moments later, I did receive a message from that boy’s fone.  It was unbelievable!  They were indeed out together somewhere north.
My heart skipped a beat.  Okay, the boy never texted for five months (not unless you count the new year greeting which was a gm) now and it made me sad for quite awhile for the sudden silence from him.  It wasn’t really from him but the fact that I got a message from his number brightened me up. =)
At almost the same moment, I got another message from an unknown number.  When I opened the message, it was a surprise to see it was from someone I never expected to reply.  I didn’t know his globe digits so I rang his sun digits, and when it did, I texted him to greet.  It was his birthday after all.
I don’t load my sun anymore because I only have a limit of contacts there and most of them have globe digits as well. So why spend double right?  The unknown number belonged to him.  I got his digits without even asking! =)  I had a brief message exchange with him. =)  I never intended to have unli last night but I had to. haha!  It was spur of the moment.  =P I even abandoned my book for a while just to text.  Nabuhay naman ako doon. ;)  I’m pretty sure the smile I had the other night was the best I had for quite awhile now. ‘til then…=)
