The Story of my Life

Got a text from Husbo just now.

Husbo : Hi Baby! Kick mommy if you want to say hi to Daddy.

Ang kuleeeeeeeeeeet! hahahaha

My head is still throbbing due to lack of sleep and my feet are still sore. Had our MBA year-end party in our home which means Husbo and I were busy playing host and hostess. As usual, it was a riot. Parties with these people are usually like that, and it's not because of just one person, it's because everyone is makulit and rowdy all at the same time. I can just imagine how disturbing we were to our neighbors last night, and I can't really blame them. Everyone was speaking at the top of their lungs and laughing to their heart's delight.

The Earlybirds: Jom, Me, Des, Kathy, Jayvee and Romeo



This is all of us. Only one person is missing: Wilson
From L-R: Enganged couple Patchi and JV, Ching, Rome, Ritchie, Jason, Kathy, Jayvee, Des, Jom and I

Borrowed a friend's template of Panahon Ko `To and tweaked the questions to make it more appropriate for a Christmas party. Had 3 groups of 3, with each group having someone represent the 70s, 80s and 90s.

Group 1 - Kathy (70s), Des (80s) and Jason (90s)
Group 2 - Jayvee (70s), Ching (80s) and JV (90s)
Group 3 - Rome (70s), Ritchie (802) and Patchi (90s)

Knowing how much these people hate admitting their age, I grouped them without telling which era they were representing. It was up to them to admit which era they belong to for as long as someone will say the magic words: Panahon ko `to!

To which Ritchie replied: Panahon ni Rome yan!

Ritchie answered: Tinimbang ka ngunit kulang.

Rome: Panahon ko `to! Bell bottom. Nagsusuot kasi ang ako ng bell bottoms nung 90s.

Kathy: Panahon ko `to! Disney Channel?

Everyone burst out in laughter knowing that Kathy was way mature than the rest of us, we can't accept there's Disney Channel in the 70s.

Ching: Panahon ko-nya to! (pointing at JV)

Weng weng, as you know, became popular in the 70s. Ching realized she was answering a question relevant in the 70s and she doesn't want to be identified in the 70s era.

Ritchie was the first to raise his hand with this question but couldn't let out the answer. Kathy, who belonged to the other group blurted out the answer with inip...Spray Net!

After the game, we had white elephant exchange gift.

Up next, we played the walang-kamatayang Pinoy Henyo.

Des and Ching seemed like they were on drugs that night, heckling and doing just anything to disturb the person on the seat. Super hyper mode these two ladies!

Ching: English?

Hindee

Ching: Tagalog

Hindee

Ching: Shet? Ano to? Espanyol?

The night ended a little past midnight. The house was a mess, of course, and my feet were soooo tired. But it was all worth it. Had a great time. I'm usually one of the most makulit in the group but because of my condition, had to lay low. I sooooo missed these guys.

After a Small World, a gondola ride around Walt Disney's creations, Jom encouraged all of us to try the Space Mountain without giving us any background of what it is. The Space Mountain, as I heard, is one of the most enjoyable rides in Disneyland.

The ride will be slow at the start. And you will see nothing but pin lights that appear like stars in outer space. Then suddenly the cart will move fast, up and down. After the uphill and downhill ride will come a deep plunge and a sharp turn. It will all be deep plunges and sharp turns from then on, only faster. At some point, it will also make a loop.

The dome was filled with screams and laughter all throughout the ride. My Iegs were stiff as I was afraid that if I let loose any body part, it would hit somewhere. Sometimes I would laugh at the thought that Jom tricked us into getting in as well as the reactions I hear from other people, but most of the time I would scream for fear of my life. I was screaming up to the last leg of the ride. Thus this hideous picture.

We had a good laugh seeing this photo. It shows who had fun and those who wish they'd never gotten in. Unfortunately for me, I'm one of the latter.

I guess, you already know why.

But don't despair. There's no winner yet. We still have a chance on Sunday...and the pot has grown even bigger...it will be worth P232M on Sunday.

I gotta run! Ciao!
