Yesterday was Elanie's post-birthday-slash-surprise-going-away party. We planned the thing for about two weeks and finally, it was realized.:) My friend, aka the starfish, is to leave for Canada. Yes, migration yet again. It's just so sad that people start to leave in waves for another country these days. It's all for a greener pasture, for a better life, yada yada yada. I mean, I can't blame them, right?
Anyway, the 'party' was fun. It was supposedly a sleepover but then again, my Dad missed me so much he picked up around 1am. I am trying hard to think of it as positive as possible. My telling Mom to please talk to Dad so I'd be allowed was my latest, farthest attempt at assertion. Yeah, I know I'm soo masunurin. Kay even tried to push me into trying harder by reminding me that she wasn't napayagan also but she made some crafty excuse just so she could get her way (really appreciate it Kay, but I just know when my Dad won't budge, and last night was his, obviously).
So going back to the fun, fun party, we got Rams to document it and all, with him saying that we'll get to watch that after five years. after expected grunts and "what??s", we settled for four. We even prepared a skit, to support the "surprise" term we used, although it was totally unsuccessful because Rodomark slipped. It was really nice cos it was the first time we got together, all of us, in two years. I say, "ang bilis ng panahon..." with a all the air I can take in. Ooh, the food. Food was great except that I had to shoo away the crushed chicharon topping of the palabok due to my anti-terrestial-animal-ingestion venture. Sometimes you just wish vegetarian-friendly-palabok to-go existed.
The happiest, most wonderful thing that happened was... Elanie had her first shot of Tequila! It might sound lame to a lot of people, but knowing Elanie, I am still in disbelief. Well, as I put it, if she didn't get to have a boyfriend here in the Philippines, atleast let her have a shot. As for Annie, well, she said she's gonna have it during her own going-away. Tell me about it!
To our starfish: I'm gonna miss you! *tears forming in eye corners*
from L to R: Elanie, Zelina, Azh, Rams, Annie, Kay

Congratulations to Carrie for winning the American Idol Season 4 title. Although after watching their last performance I was still, still hoping that Bo would. Both of them were great, but as they say, there's only one winner and Carrie deserved it more. Anyway, Bo remains to be oh so hot and with a shiny red car to boot. Sounds good enough for me. |
