Funny thing happened to a couple of my roommates yesterday morning. One noticed that her towel was wet even though she hadn’t used it yet. Turns out that in her haste, our other roommate had used the wrong towel! Both were color blue and hung over the same bed railings, that’s why. But that’s not […]
Happy Birthday Shai!
It was our college classmate Shai’s birthday on March 3, so the day after that she invited us to a celebration in Padi’s Point, Novaliches, somewhere far away we’d never been. Since there were four of us (Chu, Maya, Zenie and me), we decided to take a taxi. We got there at promptly 9pm, but […]
Zenie’s Happy Hearts Day
Last year was a special valentine’s day, if not for me, then at least for one of my friends, and I was happy enough. Zenie’s boyfriend John had contacted me and asked for my help. He was in their hometown Basilan so he couldn’t give his valentines gift personally, so he asked if I could […]
Girls Night Out
Last week we were supposed to have a girls night out that didn’t push through because some people got loaded with work. Well last Friday, without any formal plans, it finally did. It was supposedly just a movie, but Kes and Drew and I thought it would be a good idea to go beyond that, […]
Childhood Memories
Over lunch we were once again experiencing stomachache not from food poisoning but too much laughter. Somehow our conversation got steered to kiddie games and they were all amazed at all the game chants/songs I knew which they had never heard before. They said, “talented pala ang mga taga Mindanao, no.” I was the only […]
Yoga
Last night I tried out yoga just out of curiosity. It wasn’t easy to stretch yourself to the limit and at times attempt to twist yourself into a human pretzel then lift yourself, in said form, off the ground (I wasn’t able to, actually). But what was weird was how, at the end of the […]
Tongue Twisted
Growing up in a melting pot of cultures has made it quite normal for us to converse with each other using three different dialects all at once, knowing full well that the other persons could understand us even if we were, say, speaking in tagalog interspersed with a few chavacano or bisaya words. But that […]
Preserving Memories
When I went home over the holidays, one of the things I was looking forward to was the chance to browse through my old memories again – my diaries and other old stuff in my room. I should have seen it as a bad sign when my mom told me she had given away all […]
Happy Birthday Chu!
He insists on being called Jess, but when I actually do call him that infront of previous officemates, he mopes and says, “Bakit Jess ang tawag mo sakin? Hindi na ba tayo close?” So I guess this means only close friends of his are allowed to call him “Chu”? Whatever the reason, I’m just flattered […]
Reunion in Bacolod Chicken Inasal
After the long holidays, I got a chance to meet up with former officemates from KPMG in Bacolod Chicken Inasal, Glorietta, last night. We were there to exchange pasalubongs and celebrate Chu’s birthday in advance since Reylyn was scheduled to leave for Japan the next day and wouldn’t be here on his actual birthday. The […]
