What’s Been Goin’ On
Tuesday, April 15th, 2008Arrgh…. 100 years bago ako dumating sa page na ito. I’m here at the office making do with the super slow free internet. Hay, kaya nga free eh… Magtiis tayo… Anyway, I’m done with Quali! Yipee, passed another one of ‘em killers;p Honestly, i don’t think it would’ve been as hard if I’d focused. But hey, I passed so no regrets;p After learning that I passed, I started going after my signatories for the PRC forms. Then learned that Fe was actually in the country for a week already. Jeez, to think dinadasal ko na umuwi siya. Half of my wish came true;p She came and she left before the highschool reunion which will be this coming Saturday. Hehe, what is excited… Still wondering what I’ll wear. Despite the weight gain, I’m actually grateful that it’s basically the same weight I used to have in highschool. Not that I actually looked at the mirror or the weighing scale that much in highschool hehe… Anyway, going back to Fe—- as usual, it was an adventure of sorts;p Did overnights at their place in San Pedro. Drove around their car for them;p Figured it’s the least I can do for one of my best buds… Summer heat is really killer but we managed. Loved her gift! A whole getup for the reunion. Unfortunately it would be too dressy for the summer theme they’ve got cookin’. I think I’ll just buy from a new chum Fe introduced me to. Check out Elaine Sy at multiply - her site’s Chic & Sassy. I like the maxi tube and kimono dresses. Can’t get more summer-y than that;p Had a mini-reunion with old chums - Martin, Shey and Abi. Convinced Abi to attend… Sayang naman at minsan lang magkitakits. What is 11 years, right? Shey’s turned homebody mama with my inaanak Leunamme. Martin seems to be thriving in the call center industry - why not? with girls all over the place… peace, Marts! What else? Hmm, Fe got a new half-breed chow-chow. Ang kulit ng puppy! Hehe, I can’t seem to remember the name. You see, we normally sleep on the floor when we’re at her place. It’s cooler that way with Fe’s kid cousins filling up the rooms. The puppy did nothing but walk all over my hair… Haay, buti na lang balik second floor ang tulog namin the next sleepover. Ang sarap ng chikahan this year. It’s like we’re midway out-of-college and being actual grownups. I guess that’s how it feels when you’re trying to build a nest for a new family, getting into a new career or just graduating from another college course;p Old friends, new perspectives… That’s the nice thing about not seeing each other for a long time. Ang daming bagong pag-uusapan, pinaghuhugutan. We’re more mature but still with a touch of insecurity - trying to get a grip on this ride we call life. Okay, okay… I’m getting sentimental. Fe went back to her honey Wally last Sunday. Buti at hindi ako naluha… I have this feeling that I might be able to make it there in a year’s time God willing. God willing - that’s Fe’s favorite phrase. And so it should be mine too. One thing I can say about Fe is she makes the most of her time. She’s serious about spreading God’s word with every person she meets or visits. Really the missionary these days - good for her;p Hay, sana magsimula na sila ng pamilya. Parinig ito kay Wally hehehe… I really think they’ll make good parents - both grounded, kind-hearted and generous=) Can’t wait to be ninang again;p Now that she’s back there, I’m back to boards review. The final review which started just this Mon and will end May 22. A little more than a month, this review has only 4 rest days. Good luck naman sa ‘kin. I’ve asked for a leave for the reunion. Other than that the other leaves which will be for before the boards. Re the post grad videoke-dinner at my place, I’ll be postponing the thing again=p Budget is out of whack although I’d really like to have a go at the mike again=) If it’s not this coming Sunday, then we’re looking at end of review or after boards. De-stressors- that’s what we need;p What else? Oh yeah, I’ve reinstalled the OS on my PC. Roj got me a secondhand 40GB hd. Finally! A separate drive for personal files=) I swear, ipamamana ko ang PC ko kay Roj ‘pag alis ko ng Pinas. Kung buhay pa ito hehehe… I’ve yet to buy the peripherals. Maybe I should just give Mama a list of the stuff we need and be done with it. hmm, not bad if I can get her to remember hahaha… I think I’m done writing this novela. Hehe, baka kasi matagalan bago masundan ulit…
