the 7 Day Itch

After 7 days of primitive living (no computer, no internet),im finally back in circulation. I must say, its great to be back. My Computer skills, as scant as they may be, are getting rusty.

What happened in those few days of wilderness? hmm, let me recount.

Thursday, October 28: Supposed to go out with Samantha, Carrie and Charlotte* for an italian inspired bonding. samantha, being absent the first gimmick, was the VIP that day. but ahem, ahem, SHe has to have her uniform fitting that day ( duh?!? uniform? that is so High school) so, the entire day was spoiled.

Friday, October 29: Hmmm, my good friend Tubby set a gimmick for us. Queer, Anime and Mamba were supposed to go too. the Octoberfest was finally coming to an end and as self-proclaimed beer chuggers, we just had to be there. 2 hours past call time, i was surprised to see Tubby sitting alone at Powerbooks cafe. Apparently, Anime was too tired to come and Mamba had a family dinner. Queer came late, (later than i did!!!) because he came all the way from Tagaytay. 10 pm, we decided to check out the "party". dude, the event should be renamed JOlogsfest. I swear, i have never seen so many people wearing leather. Its as if the goons in FPJ movies were having their reunion. the fashion there was quite interesting. Too sum it all up, it was Matrix GOne Wrong and Avril Lavigne stars as trinity. No shit.

Im not known for being patient and a lover of crowds ( i value my personal space, thank you.) so i was nagging Queer and Tubby to get the hell out of there. WE didnt exactly leave but we stayed at a rather "normal" resto and nestled our most anticipated beer. we went home at 1230, with Queer dying to go to the bathroom. Unfortunately, all the washrooms were full. he finally settled for the MMDA urinal somewhere near White Plains and after "unloading", he came to the conclusion that there is really "something better than sex".

OCtober 30, Saturday: went to Holy Cross (now Manila Memorial Park) to visit Nanay, Tatay and tito Vic.

October 31, Sunday: we were supposed to go to Himlayan but traffic was a bitch. went to Church instead. I saw Tootsie Roll, my elementary classmate and one time Kendeng Girl for Pera o Bayong.

NOvember 1, Monday: WOke up friggin early to go to Himlayan. Visited my Mama, my twin brothers, Lolo, and tito Lito. It wasnt so solemn because i slept for an hour inside the car. (blame my dad, he woke us up early)

November 2, Tuesday: got my grades... 3 surprises. Got 1.75 in BA 104 (the subject i didnt study for), 1.25 in law (made me reconsider taking up Law) and a measly 2 for my PI (PI ka talaga, MAranan!). The Sex and the City girls were supposed to meet up but surprise, Surprise! Samantha was a no-show. I still went to Charlotte's place and watched Eternal Sunshine, again.

November 3, Wednesday: didnt sleep because i had to line up for my thesis. our overnight thingymajiggy with Queer and Anime was botched and GOlfer, my thesis partner, picked me up at 2:30 am instead. Since we got dyahe being the first ones there, we drove around UP to let some time pass. when we decided to finally park the car, we saw Queer and his TP already there. By 3:20 am, we were the 3rd pair to come to school. Queer was drinking our Favorite Red Horse and got stupidly drunk that he spilled beer on Tubby and me. i had to ask my mom to bring me extra shirt (parang kinder!!!). I was able to finish everything in one day, the best enrolment ever.

wow... that's long. and to cap it all off, i watched the Classic, a Korean love story. I cried, which is totally expected of me. harhar.

this is getting too long. Moral of the story: Never ever let your computer crash. You'll miss it too much.

* Sorry, i cant think of a better codename for them
