Mabuhay ang bagong...

...uwi! MABUHAAAAAY!!! :p

last wednesday, we (the sigma and tna peeps) celebrated mildred's return from singapore. she arrived last saturday and only stayed in the country for a week (boooo!). actually, ang totoo nyan, tumakas lang talaga sya sa boss nya. hahaha!

i was the official organizer of our dinner get-together. but before i talk about the major boo-boo that i did, i just want to say that this week was pretty hectic. really! not that i'm being defensive... :D

anyways, eto kasi nangyari. when mildred and i last talked about the dinner, i said that i'll inform the people through e-mail. she mentioned that joy, flor, doins, and dennis confirmed already. since ayie texted me back that he was good to go, i decided to send a general e-mail to the sigma group only. when i was finished typing my (short) invite, i started to enter the sigmaLang yahoogroup. eh sa address book ko kasi, may List ako na Sigma. i haven't used that list in a while and when it came out while typing, i thought that it was my shortcut for the yahoogroups email. so i clicked on it and sent my message.

so 2 days passed and we were all set. i wasn't able to check my e-mails during those days so i wasn't aware of the invite. pagdating ng wednesday, i thought - no, assumed - that others informed flor and dennis about the venue.

anyways, when i got to Gerry's Grill @ Park Square, joy, doins, flor, and dennis were there and already ordered appetizers (calamari and tofu). aba, nalaman ko nalang na hindi pala yahoogroups ang naka-save sa list ko kundi yung individual e-mail addresses nila!! waah! kaya tuloy, late na nung nalaman ni mikelec and rex na kasama pala sila!

kaya guys, i'm so sorry!!! valid naman explanation ko diba?? (di naman ako guilty e. medyo lang. :P)

ok, tama na explanation at baka may mangbato ng sapatos dito. hehe.

joy and i brought our cameras and were the official paparazzi of the night. while waiting for our guest of honor, we killed time by taking photos....

joy, anong tinitignan mo??

doins and boss dennis (may asungot o! :p)

...and, of course, catched up on the latest gossip, er, stories. lagi naman ako huli sa balita, e! :D

at dumating din ang guest of horror, este honor. :D

aba, feeling artista talaga! mildsky, pwede ka na sa The Buzz magazine (yung may mga paparazzi photos). and the hair! let's not forget her newly relaxed tresses. iba talaga pag ikakasal na noh? ^_~

later, mommy bernie arrived. grabe berns, parang di ka nanganak! (naks) after ordering, talking about bernie's new baby, and grilling doins about her new "gerlash," tipen showed up. i just wish i had a recorder that time. panalo talaga ang q&a portion namin nun. i can't remember the exact dialogue but some of stephen's questions went:

kasal na si bernie? kay mon ba? (dude, may baby na nga sila e! mas huli ka pa pala sa balita sa kin e! :p)
(to doins) may asawa ka na ba? (yeeessssss!)

pero teka. ba't ako, never mo tinanong kung may asawa na ha?? hehe.

a few minutes after our orders were served, ayie came. tamang-tama ang timing mo!

our orders? pinakbet, pancit bihon, grilled squid, baked scallops (my special request ^_~), kare-kare (joy's special request), and sinigang na hipon. yes, i'm not allergic to shrimps anymore! sorry ka nalang, ayie at napasa ko sa yo!

si rex nagtampo kasi di ko raw sya nasama sa e-mail ko. (sorry na nga e!) anyways, i talked to him over the phone and explained everything. oo, nagpaliwanag na ko sa lawyer mo! hahaha. dibale, nalibre naman sya ni mildsky the next day e so ok na rin yun. :D

what's a get-together without more photos right? kaya si ayie, nagpresintang photographer (paparazzi lang kami ni joy e. hehe.) and took more shots of the group.

mga bungisngis

walang magawa

nice hair, doins! :p

we spent the rest of dinner talking about former officemates, mildred and donna's straight hair, joy's previously curly hair (sayang di ka namin nakita ni mildred nung sexy days mo!), and more tsismis - as usual.

after that yummy dinner (thanks, mildsky!) we capped off the night @ The Coffee Bean, Greenbelt. unfortunately, tipen had to leave early for a "meeting." (yan na ba tawag sa date ngayon???)

from local tsismis, the topics turned to Prison Break, Grey's Anatomy, and my break-ups with Wentworth (Miller), Brandon (Routh), and Brad (Pitt). see tipen, ang dami mong na-miss! ewan ko ba kung ba't ayaw maniwala nung iba. honest naman ako magkwento diba???

at around 11, we called it a night.

salamat ulit, mildsky! sana bumalik ka kagad. but i have a feeling the next time we meet, sa simbahan na! (yi-heey!) sa kasal ko, no. anong akala mo?? o bawal kumontra, blog ko to! :p

p.s.star, bigyan mo raw ng tips si mildsky on long-distance relationships and marriage! ayaw na ni flor e. hehe.
