JaFUN in 7 days
September 8-14, 2016
Huhu. I failed to post last June and July 2015 😔 I'm not really busy. I just had a lazy streak to blog. Here's an update on what happened for the past few months:
June 18-21 (Thursday-Sunday) Reunion with Dale. We ate and ate. One night we went to a karaoke bar. Xali and I travelled 2 hours to attend Dale's wedding (it was funny and a complete joke lol). It was all Dale's treat except for when we treated him lunch at Mad Mark's Glorietta. We were supposed to visit him in Korea and it didn't push through because Dale chose to be relocated in Africa (we would have done the same thing because the salary will be doubled lol). We already have the tickets and it was a hassle so Dale treated us generously to make up for all that. June 27 (Saturday) Xali visited me in our apartment because Ian (her boyfriend) had some work related activity here in Manila. We just went to nearby malls and shop a little (this was the most fun part because we just shopped at Fashion Market and the clothes were real cheap). We had dinner at Banapple and ate ice cream at Cold Stone. Cold Stone's ice cream was heaven. Very smooth and creamy. I'll definitely go back... if I have extra money. It was expensive but worth it. Php 168 for the smallest cup. July 5 (Saturday) Celebrated my cousin's graduation in a resort in Laguna. The place was very nice. Perfect for a barkada getaway. There were billiard tables, videoke with the screen widely projected on the wall nearby the pool, you can play darts and pingpong, and the rooms were clean and spacious. I highly recommend it. The resort's name is Duplex Plus Hot Spring Resort (I didn't see any hot spring). July 6 (Sunday) Still in the resort and my laptop died on me. I was forced to have a VL without pay. Stupid laptop. July 17 (Friday) Went out with my current and ex officemates to have Jen's despedida. She's leaving the company for Dubai where her sister works. We ate dinner at Mad Mark's BGC and had three pitchers of cocktail at The KEG. We had fun and I got drunk (for the first time in a long while). July 19 (Sunday) Tried Shawarma Bros with Kenneth and it was ok. Still planning to go back if, again, I have extra money. July 25 (Friday) Daddy's confinement at St. Luke's Global (liver tumors). We slept at Ate Gigi's condo. I was on vacation leave until Sunday for my Mama's supposed party. Before we go to the condo, we went to SM Makati first to shop and eat. I didn't buy anything. I'm in kuripot mode and I don't want to waste any more money on new clothes. We had dinner at Tim HoWan. Their pork buns were yummy and their hakaws mouth watering. There wasn't much on their menu. Their menu was rather simple which I liked. July 26 (Saturday) My cousins, Isabelle and Illysa, together with Kuya Irving, arrived at the condo and woke us up. It was about 7 in the morning when they arrived. Isabelle and Illysa discovered the pool and had a kiddie fashion show. July 27 (Sunday) It was my Mama's birthday. We celebrated at the hospital and surprised her with food, cake and balloons. She was planning to have a party in our province but due to unfortunate circumstances, she had no choice but to cancel. July 30 (Thursday) Sick with fever and nasty colds. I wasn't able to visit Daddy. August 3 (Monday) Daddy's discharge. The doctor advised Daddy to stay here in Manila to avoid the trouble of travelling back and forth to the province. Daddy and Mommy temporarily stayed in Ate Gigi's condo until his checkup on Saturday. August 5-7 (Wednesday-Friday) Since it's already my week off, I stayed with Mommy and Daddy at the condo to clean Daddy's surgical wounds and help Mommy with some errands (buying medicines and diapers and other stuff). Discovered this new app under 'Best New Apps' in the App Store and I fell in love with it. I love these kind of apps and it's very simple to use. It's a countdown app which helps you remember those important dates and it also serves as a reminder for your upcoming errands. Last Saturday, we went to QC at Sky Bar Mind. They served welcome drinks for us 'first timers'. The clear liquid was poured in a shot glass and I immediately went for it as if it's water. I didn't expect the strong alcohol taste and I suddenly felt the heat in my mouth and chest. The rest of them finished drinking their shots and after that, they showed us this bottle. They were calling it the 'cobra shot'. I have seen something like this in pictures but not in person. It looked so cool and there were other stuff in there. You can see the scorpion and what looked like a ginseng plant. Pictured on the right, the scorpion's tail is in the snake's mouth. They also serve the best nachos. We'll definitely come back here even if it's quite far from home.
And lastly, we have here the Dark Chocolate Macadamia Cookie (I think) from Starbucks. It's one of the best cookies I've ever tasted and it's best eaten when heated. Can't wait to put this in my mouth again. Karamihan sa mga fun events ay nangyayari during this month. Kaya tingin ko, December na talaga ang most favorite month ko. At saka birthday ko din, December. Pag parating na ang December, expected mo na ang madaming christmas parties at reunion ng mga friends na matagal mo nang hindi nakikita. Kaya looking forward ako pag December na. Eto rin yung month na kahit hindi mo birthday (sa case ko birth month ko to), makakatanggap ka ng gifts. Although magastos din kase ikaw mismo magbibigay ka din. Pero masaya pa din ako kase yung gifts na binigay ko sa mga bulilit eh nagustuhan nila. Sulit yung niregalo ko sa kanilang Play Doh kase hindi nila tinitigilan. Tas kinabukasan, pag gising na pag gising ni Illysa at Isabelle, yun agad ang hinanap. Kaya ang sarap sa pakiramdam :) Tas December 26, christmas party naman ng Merene-Ramiro. Medyo mas fun neto kase dumami na yung mga bata (at isip bata). Nagpalaro tas nagmusay. Nakakatawa kase pag sa musayan, walang talo talo. Magkakaaway lahat. May nananapak, may nagda-dive, may nangingiliti para lang sa barya barya 😄 After dito, pumunta naman akong Lucena. May lakad kami ni Xali. Pero hindi na natuloy yung original na lakad kase andun din sina Gel at Jan. Kumain muna kaming palaisdaan kasama din sina Hudas, Ferdie at Ian. Catch up catch up (showbiz linggo day!) tas dumiretso kami sa gym ni Ferdie. Dun na kami naginom. Hindi masarap yung red wine pero enjoy naman dun sa isa 😉👌 Kinabukasan pa (Dec 27), Stopus X-mas party naman. Nagdadalwang isip pa ko umattend pero nung nabadtrip ako nung nasa Come Shot kami nila Kenneth kase may epal na mayabang na tangang babae dun (muka mo kaya ang sunugin ko?!), nagpahatid na ko kila Asi. Next time talaga papatulan ko na yun. Hindi naman nya ko inaano pero sobrang iritang irita lang talaga ko sa kanya. Kala mo sya ang may ari nung bar. Moving on, hindi ako nagsisi na pumunta, kase ang FUN. May games tas may videoke. Halos lahat kumakanta. Tas nung medyo nagkakatama na lahat, ang saya lalo. Kaya lang, ang pangit nung ending. Haha. May mga dumating kaseng outsiders. Eh syempre nagkailangan na. Hindi ka na maka todo ng galaw. Kaya yun, natapos agad yung party. Pero sa kabuuan, super nag-enjoy pa din ako. Looking forward for next year :) Basta wala nang eepal. Stopus christmas party nga eh.
Haba ng bakasyon ko. May work from home pa din pero antagal ko dito sa Pagbilao. Parang nasasanay na ko ulit. Dati kase parang ayoko masyado umuwi dito kase komportable na ko sa Manila. Parang ayoko muna bumalik. Huhu.
Pagbalik ko lalakarin ko nanaman yung overpass pag papasok sa office, maaamoy ko nanaman yung mga mababahong basurang nakatambak sa mga kanto, mamomroblema nanaman ako kung anong kakainin ko sa araw-araw. Pero pag naiisip ko yung mga mamimiss ko sa Manila, parang gusto ko na din bumalik. Haha ang gulo. Parang torn between two lovers. Mamimiss ko uli dito pagluwas ko. Mamimiss ko yung free food dito sa bahay, mamimiss ko mag-bake, tas yung mga murang pagkain mamimiss ko. Ang mura ng food sa Eduvigis pero halos lahat ang sasarap. Favorite ko na yun kainan sa Lucena. Yung stay ko dito, halos araw-araw ako nasa labas, tas madaling araw na ang uwi. Bawat labas ko ata kasama ko si Xali. Haha. Nagsleep over pa ko sa kanila nung isang araw tas halos 4 AM na kame natulog. Kwentuhan lang kame ng kwentuhan ng kahit ano. Tas nakasama din namin si Jan at Benson, fun yung night na yun puro highschool reminiscing. Tas kahapon naman nakasama ko ulit sina Arien at Emi. Namiss ko yung dalwang yun. Kwentuhang kwentuhan lang din. Bitin pa nga ako. Parang gusto ko ulit lumabas kasama sila. Chismisan lang kami ng chismisan. Haha. Favorite ko na talagang month ang December. Last Saturday was fun. I went home to Pagbilao and went out with my "core group" (as per Ian) minus Bong who's in a far far away place. Bong started it by chatting us, saying that he'll go home. It turned out that Nick and I were also going home so we were all excited to get together once again. It has been months since we last saw each other and it would be great to catch up. By the way, it was also my cousin Isabelle's 7th birthday. I think it was not an ordinary kid's party for a 7-year old. I don't know. Maybe it's something that's becoming a new trend right now. Remember when a lady celebrates her 18th birthday and there would be 18 young men (and old) who'll give her a rose then dance with her? The exact same thing happened in that birthday party in McDonald's. Except, of course, there were 7 boys (6 boys and my her dad). It was really entertaining to watch. Some boys don't want to go up there and give my cousin a rose, let alone dance. Some were being being forced by their moms. One kid got threatened, "Hindi kita bibigyan ng chocolate. Sige na punta ka na dun." I think the 7 Roses was the highlight of that party. Ok, back to our core group, we had fun making fun of Nick. Nick really has a big problem with p***y girl. Haha. We laughed, made jokes, reminisced, then laughed again. I miss having those kind of conversations. I miss being with people who know almost everything about me. Who know almost everything about my past. I had a blast but got very sleepy at the end because of my shift. I just wish we have the time to do this more often. We didn't get a chance to take a picture, but I took this. After reading this, it was Bong's turn to make fun of.
