drowning it all out on alcohol!

busy busy week. grabe ha, what i need to do just to try to forget:

Wednesday:

"reunion" at The Embassy

it's actually Val's birthday (Mark L's sister, 3rd from left) and we were Mark's guests (thanks, Val and Mark!). he invited a lot of people but we were the only ones who made it, the old collectors (circa 2001). =P it was fun to reminisce the good old days while drinking lots and lots of vodka-sprite, and yeah, dancing like no one's watching too. =) i think we're the only "mature" people in the club at that time. and it became more obvious when come 12am... "tara uwi na tayo." sus, napaghahalatang matanda na! hahaha!

Thursday:

Happy Birthday, Itay!

this picture was actually taken last April when we went to Baguio. i just used it to show that it's the 3 of us again, celebrating itay Nilo's birthday (middle in picture) at Pier 1 Fort Strip. i wasn't able to take any pics. Beer beer beer... (thanks, Itay!)

Friday:

Sama-Sama at the NBC Tent

jaime, faye, net, me

a bankwide event where half of the people that came were there because of the free food and booze. but this time, the beer ran out (i only had two cans). =( but i always take these events as an opportunity to meet up and spend time with people whom i don't get to see regularly but are very very very dear to me.Ü as usual, kulang in this pic though. we were the only ones who made it an effort to seek each other out in that place. thanks, arubato, for taking our pic!Ü

and Faye, super thanks for listening, understanding, and for the "payong kaibigan".Ü when this situation comes to an end (hopefully soon), i will keep in mind and heart everything that you have said. it all made sense. thanks so much!Ü i owe you, girl!

Saturday:

welcome to the christian world, Santi!

Meng and Marc's little bundle of joy, Don Santiago Miguel Balmaceda's baptism. this special day was held at St Francis of Assisi in Mandaluyong with very close family and friends.Ü reception followed at Max's in Shaw Blvd.

CBG and the energy-in-the-form-of-a-little-boy-and-girl a.k.a. Cushie and Ricci

these kids are hilarious!! they're mini-Enervon's... more energy mas happy! hahaha!Ü they can talk, eat, and play all at the same time!Ü kawawa si albert ginawa nilang mascot-for-the-day. on the way to t.morato for coffee, cushie was blabbing something about shorts. i guess wondermom kerol is very much used to this blabbing, but i was laughing the entire time. tanungin nyo na lang si albert, sila yung nagkaintindihan eh. hahaha! Ü i so love these kids!Ü

after coffee at Kopiroti (first time ko dito!), headed straight to plee's house (as usual) to celebrate Kyle Xavier Hung's 2nd birthday.

happy happy happy 2nd birthday, Kyle!!! Ü

actually, kyle's birthday was the day before (13 july) and he quietly spent it with his lovely family at home. with cake, ice cream, and all! the following day, kyle's parents invited very close friends at their humble home to celebrate his birthday. so this translates to... inuman na!!

with our friends (at the back) coke, jr lapad, and marlboro lights

when we're together, riot ito!! but when we're together and drunk, damn, all hell breaks loose! bwahahaha! pansinin mo, you only have one decent picture, putol ka pa! =P i love you, best!! *mwah*

plee, mahiya naman tayo! nakaubos tayo ng dalawang jr lapad! hahaha!Ü

Sunday:


with, as usual, the first family plee and pitoy.
