get-together/reunions during holidays
i wonder if this is only in the philippines? but most families, friends, schoolmates schedule their get-togethers/reunions during holidays.. probably since many are already based overseas and holidays is the time they get a vacation to be with their families here... so holidays here e is both hectic and fun har3..
last nite i was out with gradeskul ppl... some i see around others i see in malls but dont really greet each other... i recognise them but im afraid some dont recognise me anymore hahaha... its kinda surprising for me that there are people who forget about their childhood friends hahahaha... or mebbe my memory is just that good? hahaha
we met at the fort... the fort has been really popular a couple of years ago.. since i dont really enjoy going to bars cuz of people smoking... i seldom go on niteouts... and twas actually my first time at the fort last nite (well been to market market 2x i think..).. call time was 7pm... and you know how filipino time is usually 1hr late? hahaha we arrived at 7.30pm... just 30mins late... and woah we were the first ones to arrive haha.. last person arrived around 9pm i think... there were only 9 of us and 3 husbands were there also...
so as expected of reunions... you go to a trip down memory lane... who was this and who was that back then... i was amazed with my friend... cuz as far as i know my memory is better than most people... but her memory is better than mine!! she told us detailed stories that only she remembers hahaha i even asked her what her vitamins were during those days... or probably she was the first blogger ever ahahaha... im glad that majority of the people there last nite are still single hahaha i see hope for me hahaha.. i was once again with normal people :) it feels different that we were discussing different topics : school, the classmates, teachers, subjects, travel, shopping, etc.... and not a single person mentioned anything about telenovelas, asianovela, asian pop ahahaha gee i wouldve contributed a lot to the conversation if ever hahaha
weniwei was supposed to go home at 11.30pm since the place was kinda far from home... but it got extended and i arrived the house almost 3am!!!!! dad didnt say anything but i knew he fell asleep cuz it took sometime for him to open the door when i texted him..
i wasnt really sleepy after i got home so i still surfed the net... till about 5am hehehe then i woke up 1 phew... now im trying my best to tidy-up my room a bit,,, twas a mess already before xmas now its like a jungle in the making har3..
tonite im going out again,,, gonna meet katie, cathy, uchi and the others whose names i dont remember cuz i see them only when katie is here haha... tomorrow i meet with fellow arashians i became friends with because of the taipei/shanghai con :) i already missed some get-togethers because of hectic sked :(
indeed nov-january of every year is so fun, hectic skedule,,, plus you need cash for all the get-togethers and xmas shopping... but im not really complaining haha
