weekend

the weekend started on friday as pogs and i planned to get together a week before. he was bringing his boyfriend and i was bringing... rose. :) at the spur of the moment, we decided on cafe bola, bearing in mind that rose needs to go back to the office at a certain time or else she will get the heat from her evil boss once again. and so we met jonald over dinner. well, plainly that --- meet him --- since he hardly said a word all evening. probably got scared of us. or he probably figured out that we were talking enough for the four of us. :)

come saturday, i was looking forward to attending roy's birthday because this would actually be the first time i would be going out with my office friends. i've been in the company for over a month and the socializing i have done with my office friends occurs only within the office (the boracay offsite excluded). so even if i had to travel a long way from paranaque to quezon city, i really didn't mind. i was going to meet up with other friends on the way to the party and dad agreed to pick me up after. so everything was planned. or so i thought. the car suddenly had a flat and for some reason, they couldn't take out the tire out. i decided that i won't be going if i didn't have a ride home. quezon city is just too far away to take a taxi ride. alone. by myself. good thing tita baby willingly lent us their car so in no time, i was on my way.

we were the first to arrive at the party. roy and abby greeted us and led us inside the house. lo and behold! a billiards table! so while waiting for the other guests to arrive, we played pool. how i missed playing! :) soon, we were eating, drinking and chit-chatting. good thing dad was picking me up because i got a wee bit tipsy. blame it on sol who bought a bottle of tequila and a bottle of vodka currant. plus the kamikaze shot that roy's friend mized up. he said that he would be greatly offended if we didn't try it so we gladly obliged. :)

the next day, we heard mass and went to tita baby's house to celebrate reynard's birthday. as per usual get together of the marasigan clan, everyone was having fun while eating and updating each other with what's going on. tito rey called from the united states and talked to us. it's been a while since i last saw him and he's coming home next year for the marasigan grand reunion. i promised him that i'll take him out for dinner then.

i also went to alabang town center and sm southmall to find the (still) elusive dress to wear to sheryll and nino's wedding this coming saturday. no such luck. i'll try again later.

it has been a hectic and buzzing weekend for me but i am not complaining. i enjoyed it!
