the best!

Talk about a surprise! Friday night I was writing about how I missed my friends and all that, then the next thing I know, I was with them the next day! It was my big sister Katrina's birthday yesterday. Dale's birthday, on the other hand, was last March 22 but he decided to celebrate it here in my house. Hindi na kasi ako nakakasama sa mga lakad so they (Bakal Soc) decided to hold the party here on my house.

We were supposed to go swimming eh nawili sila sa paglalaro ng Tekken 5, nasarhan tuloy kami ng clubhouse pool. Instead, we just went to plan B to just drink our hearts out, old school inuman and kwentuhan! It was great! I really enjoyed the night. Mejo naparami yung inom pero tama lang! It's so nice to be with my friends again! Almost all of Bakal Soc was present. Ed, Dale, Pilep, Oninz, Mark and Dom was there. Everyone with the exception of Jem, Drey, and Pay. Haay, miss ko na yung tatlong yan! Hehe. Jeff, Dom's boyfriend was also present... as well as Dom's bro Joel.

The most pleasant surprise perhaps was Rica! Grabe nagulat talaga ako! Yeah, I know she's been telling me a lot about visiting me here on my house and surprising me, but I thought it was all bluffs! Alam ko kasi na she have bad memories here in Filinvest 2 so I thought na she won't come. She proved me wrong! On the middle of a Tekken battle with Pilep, a car suddenly stopped in front of our yard and honked. When I looked out, it was Rix!!! I was so surprised that I didn't even notice that I was just wearing boxers shorts! When I recovered from my brief sudden lapse, I ran to my room and got dressed! Hahaha! Nakakahiya talaga kay Rix because I haven't taken a bath yet during that time! Feeling ko tuloy ang dugyot dugyot ko nung humarap ako sa kanya! Waaah! Kakahiya! Hehe! Rix told me only Ed knew she was coming. Damn Ed, so sly. Haha. I also met Rix's sisters. It turns out that a relative of theirs died and that she and her sisters were supposed to go to a funeral. Umalis na tuloy siya kaagad. Parang lumabas eh dinaan lang ni Rix yung ice cream. It would've been nicer if she stayed longer.

Another thing, yung ice cream ni Rix. I've hidden it in the freezer without even saying a thing about it. Grabe, nung inuman na may nagpaparinig sa akin na "gusto niya raw ng ice cream"... kasi "may chismax daw siya na may nagbigay ng ice cream"! That person is no other than Dom!!! Haha! Malakas sumagap talaga ng chismis yang si Dom kaya napilitan na lang ako na i-share yun ice cream sa kanya! Hehe! Buti nalang at lasing na yung iba! ;p The "party" ended at 4am, I think. Everybody was drunk and sleepy. So off to bed we go. When I woke up, kailangan na raw nila umuwi. So hinatid ko nalang sila sa gate.

It's nice to have friends like these people. They know I'm not doing well emotionally, so they make themselves available just for the sake of cheering me up and keeping me company. These people, these friends... they are what I call my true and greatest treasures. I can't ask God for more. :)

To everybody: Dom, Jeff, Ed, Dale, Pilep, Maki, Oninz, and specially Rix... thank you! Nobody can do it better than you guys! :)
