Maki's Despedida

And so the day came, we were sending off Mark. Since yung alis ni Mark for Singapore was on the 25th of October (Saturday), ginawa niya nalang na sa 22 (Wednesday) yung despedida niya.

So we all went at Maki's house that night. Kainan then walang humpay na inuman! Hahaha! Fifi also bought two Bacardis with him! So yun, mejo durog durog kami! Hahaha!

I think everyone was in attendance that night just like Ed's despedida. It will be long before we see Mark again. Present on the party were: Donna (malamang! hehehe), Drey, Jem, Pilep, Che, Dom, Jeff, Joy, Oninz, Dale, Ade, Pay, Myk, and me. Wow, complete attendance! ;p

I fetched Dale and Ade in Banawe on the way to Maki. I got there late because I was tending to something earlier that day. I also forgot to pour water on the car so mejo "car woes" na naman, at least hindi malala. ;p

The guys also filed for a sick leave/ vacation leave para makapag overnight nalang kina Mark. Todo na talaga inuman. lol. After everyone is exhausted and all, we were all sitting in the sala and talk shifted to "love talks". Haha! As in advice galore sila! Hehehe! I was so tired that I eventually excused myself and slept at Maki's sofa in the sala inside.

I was supposed to go back to UST the next day pero nakalimutan ko na coding pala ako. So medyo mabilis akong umuwi the next day... I got home in less than 30mins from Mark's house! Hahaha!

On Maki's departure

Each and everyone of us will miss him in our own special way, just like we did when Ed left. On my part, I lost a confidante which I always seek for advice when the going gets tough.

Maki was always that guy who gives you unbiased advice. Siya yung tipong pag nag advice, sasabihin niya rin sayo yung mali mo... hindi lahat pabor sayo yung sasabihin niya. And I always admired that. At least nalalaman ko kung saan ang mali ko. Dami niya rin talagang inadvice sakin na ginamit ko para mai-ahon yung sarili ko sa hukay. And with him leaving, I'll definitely miss his presence.

And of course, yung birthday. Mark and I were born within a span of a day at the same year! Haha! Since college, we always held our birthday together. This is the first time since then na magkahiwalay na ang birthday celeb namin! Haha!

But if you'll think about it, hindi naman ganun ka-sad yung pag-alis nila sa 'pinas. If we're missing both Ed and Maki, we always know that they're just one click from YM away! So Donna, don't be saaaad! Haha! ;p

So guys, until then, take care! :)
