I figured I would put some story to let you all know I'm still existing and not yet rotten :)

Unfortunately, even though, I know I have more to talk about, I'm physically and mentally drained right now, but still I will tell you something interesting happened yesterday and that is, look at the title, Sidebar story.

Did you ever have one of those days that are kind of a drag but in the end mean as like those ordinary days, but you're night goes so well that the good mood it leaves you carries it until the following day?

Well, well, well. It all started when Bogs invited us (Jessie, Pam and me) to celebrate the last day of 2004 that we are together in Sidebar Cafe. The last day of my work for this year. We had our usual meal of half moons (squid) and rice and beers and it was awesome. We just talked and reminisced all the good and bad things we had experienced. We also met with Kaizen and Maricel and their appearance was just like a cameo role in a movie and still it made my day.

I think I have so much to write about a night ago, and now I neither can't remember any of it nor can't write it here, maybe because I still want to sleep more, what a pain in my ass!

Hmmm, I think we played a game yesternight to pay for the chicken and fries that we ordered.

I guess I have to end it here. I can't wait until I get to talk "face to face" with some of you people again, and then I can spill the beans ;)

Getting ready to meet my high school friends now. Until next year buddies and THANK YOU VERY MUCH for keeping me company.

Christmas is coming up and again my time of giving gift to my friends. I usually give gifts but only a cheap yet presentable gifts. Hmmm, I want to take that back, I usually give a thoughtful gifts, heheh. One more thing, I don't give gifts to my guy friends but an exception to the rule for this year would be Perci, lucky boy ;)

It was this day that I am also starving myself to death because Perci will treat us (with Milo and Cj) to Dampa sa Libis because he will be celebrating his birthday tomorrow. We gave him an expensive christmas gift that beyond the total worth of my gifts to all my friends and told him that the gift we gave him is good until the next year, so he will no longer receive a gift from us. We also gave him a scrap paper that expressed all our thoughts for him. I made it and I'm proud of it because it was really a work of art :)

Even before we went to Dampa, there was still some hassles that we encountered (like, how can we get rid of a common friend and not suspect us that we still have an agenda to do).


Edit: I can't tell the difference between cigarette smoke and my own exhaled breath anymore, but Kaizen can.
