I Have Game. Do You?

Who would ever thought that I could go out on a Saturday night, with only Php 300? I mean, sa totoo lang , if you go out nowadays, you'll spend around Php 500-1000. May inumin, pulutan, gas, at parking. Kailangan tiba-tiba ka kung aalis ka talaga. But lo and behold, when I met Mayette and Tricia at Sheila's party in Astoria, we found out that we were somewhat broke: Tricia had only Php5 in her bag, Mayette had Php20, and I had Php300. We were going to meet some friends later in the evening so we were discussing pano kami makakaraos sa gabing yun. Funny talaga. Anyway, we had to take Tricia home by 1am because she was going to attend a baptismal early Sunday morning, so our money decreased by 5 bucks. By 1:30am we were at Tiananmen in Makati Ave. We met Say, Norman, Maebelle, and Alvin. We weren't able to sit in the smoking section because it was consumable (Php1000... but with red wine... hooookay). We knew the others had money but we just settled dun sa non-smoking as ...

Boracay sunset. Sorry. Had to post it. It's so beautiful. Boracay holds some of my fondest memories, well, those that I can remember at least, for the past 2 summers. A few firsts in my life have happened on the island. I am not at liberty to list them down as other people were involved, and they may read my blog, but all I can say is, those things will remain 'firsts.' No more second or third helping. How can some things be so overhyped? Maybe it was just the booze and the bump-and-grind rhythm. Or maybe it was the salty breeze and the rays of the full moon. Must've been the sunset and the sunrise.

My suspicions have been correct after all. I fell ill in the middle of the night. I couldn't breathe properly, I was having a hard time standing up because of the dizziness. Ugh. That was around 3:30am (manila time). I drank lots of water and then I ate an orange. I fell asleep na around 6:00am. Bummer. Good thing when I woke up around 9:00am, I was feeling much better. My baby was able to visit me before I went to work. I like this 12pm-9pm shift, although I don't get to see my boyfriend of 5 years and 6 months, Allan, that much now. When I was on the 5am-2pm shift, we usually just have dinner with my family and then watch tv and then he goes home at around 9pm or 10pm because I have to sleep early. We don't even get to 'play around' as much as we did before :( . It's okay naman, we try to talk to each other everyday but minsan hindi talaga so text lang. Makes me excited when the weekend draws near, that means we'll be able to spend more time together ;)

Read this in daesdemona's blog. And I knew I had to post it in mine. Too true. Check out her blog-----> http://applejane.blogdrive.com/ Thanks daesdemona! 75 lessons that MUST be learned in relationships: 1. If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay. 2. Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior. 3. If you have ANY doubt in your mind about a man's character, leave him alone. 4. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache. 5. Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be. 6. Don't force an attraction. 7. Slower is better. 8. Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy. 9. If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no you "can't be friends." A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend. 10. Have faith in God regarding your relationship, but don't let faith make you stupid. God does...

What a day. I was 1 1/2 hours late for work and I feel a cold coming on. My nephew, 3-year old Raymund, woke me up. If he hadn't then most probably I would've woken up at around 4pm. What a God-given child that one is. He said to me 'Tita, anong oras na, tulog ka pa? Nahatid na namin si Kuya Nikki sa Ateneo ." They leave the house at 10am to bring my eldest nephew to school. Right after he said these words, I was up and about, rushing to get my things in order. I was still dizzy and tired but I didn't want to miss a day of work for fear of having backlog that would force me to work on a weekend. Everybody loves Raymund! When I was on my way to work, that was when I felt my throat being itchy and when I swallow, it was uncomfortable. That's usually a sign that I was going to have a nasty bout with the flu. Ugh.

It was a great weekend with friends in Puerto Galera. I've been to Galera before but usually with officemates or with relatives. This time I went to White Beach with some of my closest friends. Then, the next thing we knew we were a group of close to 30! A good thing was that I didn't have to pay for a drink, it was puro libre. Mapadaan ka sa isang table ng katabi mong room, sigurado may shot ka na agad ng Mindoro Sling! Say was totally wasted (a first). When she woke Sunday morning, she turned to me and said 'I have a headache." I replied 'That's what you call a hangover.' Hehehehe! Mayette admitted that she was almost drunk, she opted to sleep it off (also a first, she never gets drunk nowadays). Mayette also brought her new skimboard but a friend accidentally broke it (Note to Mayette: have one made from fiberglass!). Mishee (you birthday girl, you!) and Tricia were both wasted. Carla, as usual was dramatic, but hopefully happy during Saturday night. Bi...

So, here is my first post. There.
