Birtday Celeb of ED and Cams at CME

*kaching* *kaching*
600 bucks flew out of my (
already flat) wallet faster than the speed of light.
Whaaaaa.. How.. whaaadaheck did just happen??

i just bought chichis, 3 liters pepsi max, an ice tea pack, cheesedogs, and sisigs in cans.
that's all it, and it nearly cost me my life savings (okay, i'm exagerrating)
although our snacks and breakfast (for 9 hungry peeps) crippled my financia
l stability,
it felt nice knowing i'm providing for the nourishment of 9 growing kids jacq has to accommodate at her condo.
besides that's the least i can do for all the support they have generously given me for the past 3 years.
(thanks friends, ayan ha natikman nyo na rin ang dugot pawis ko, maalat alat pa! sorry nalang sa mga di nkatikim. better luck next time.)

after doing some grocery shopping, our growling stomachs led us to (walang kamatayang finger-licking goooood) KFC. "mag-bucket tayo. mas mura." everyone agreed. we did some nifty computation to assure us of the damage. haaaaay.. wala na tlgang mura ngayon sa mundo.. we all end up buying one piece chicken meal for each, and settled for that. gagastos pa bukas eh~

lancaster, jacq's place:
aircon not working (we were warned)..
our warm breaths circulating t
he room,
and sweats forming on our foreheads (and yes, on other hidden places too).
we decided to cool ourselves and headed to the open pool of the building.
we're not supposed to be there, but no one has to know right?
hmmm.. the cold breeze caressing our faces, and with a nice view of the ortigas skyline. (Hellow SM!)
just perfect to complement a hea
lthy Q&A/catching up/squeezing-some-juices out of our dear friends.

it's fun to argue.
it takes the angst out, and clears the mind.
of course what better topic than the differences of the two species God has so cleverly and intricately made:

Men and Women.
We all know it, and we all can't deny it.
there's a universe of difference between these two.
but that doesn't mean, we can leave it laying flat like that, and continue with our lives looking (and heading) at different directions. Compromise.
It's all about learning from each other, and growing together.
It's pushing yourself to be better.
It's trying and wanting to understand.
It's extending not just only the tip of your fingers, but offering the strength of your arms.
We do not only enter in a relationship just to be accepted,
but also to be challenged to take those crucial steps of getting out of our comfort zone

and becoming the best person we can be.

ahhhhhhh.. tired finally.
but minds still racing.. and so much to kid around for. (daming baon na jokes at kwento)
i missed this.

and so we talked and talked and talked, until our eyes can't take it anymore.
i woke up with the smell of cheesedogs and sisig.
and discovered, i was the last woman (nope, not standing) sleeping.
we all ate breakfast. watched (mild daw sabi ni fej) porn. (hey we're just curious!)

took some pictures to start the day, and went off to CME (Club Manila East) for the main event.

Highlights of the day:

First Dip: Ahhhhhh.. our first summer gettaway of the year with the group. got excited at testing and dipping into the waters.


Kayaking: all went kayaking except for me and anna. haaaaaaay.. wrong decision. (im scared i might fall off) but i had fun taking their pictures. i had some great shots.

Wave Pool:
whaaaaaa... scared at fir
st, but got the hang of it as mins flew by. it was quite tiring, but it's the collective effort of the group that made the experience a lot of fun (minus people nudging your chest, or accidentally knocking your head, and inhaling pool water into your nose).


Pool Charades: hahaha. definitely my most favorite activity of the day. (minigraine ako dun) can't decide on who the best player is, whether it's jacq for the doing the 'sounds like' action of typing in a computer.. only to learn that its friendster supposed to be sounding like "forest". (ay oo jacq, gets namin yun!) or Feji, for acting out Swan Princess, and seeming like a Pope, Duke, and a big Dragon, or Eileen for being able to guess the answer "Babangon Ako, at Dudurugin Kita" in one action. haaaaaaaay.. Super Laugh trip!

********

it was a weekend to remember. a nice way to start off a great summer.
