A high school classmate went home from Manila. It’s only the 2nd time she went back in her hometown since we graduated high school. Hence, we haven’t seen her for 11 years. Gosh it makes my head ache because we’re already old and I’m already counting decades*sigh*. She’ll be flying back to Manila today so we spent the night out with our favorite pasttime….VIDEOKE. (Read this….most of us are frustrated SINGERS) Of course, I wouldn’t go there without Ace. (Ace has always been present in our batch gettogethers). I don’t know if we are only conservative or just don’t wanna spend much but the usual bonding activity of our batch is, dine out (just a barbeque would do) and go to videoke bars afterwards. With that, we usually spend more than a hundred pesos (each). KURIPOT! hehehe.
Upon receiving a text message from one of our batchmates, I immediately informed Ace that we’re going out with friends tonight. Hope he could be able to arrive from work early so that we could go. Anyway, Ace arrived around 9PM….earlier than the usual. Yey! We can hang out with friends. I am also excited to see Ami Sheila and to personally introduce Ace to her ‘coz they haven’t met since then.
Again, Ace was the star of the night…ever! This time, we have another singer aside from Ace and Doc Penchie (the videoke queen) ‘coz Ami has a singing voice also. I can’t dare to sing ‘coz my voice is for bathroom only. Not for public ears…hahaha. Anyway, we really had a great time and adjourned the session at around 1AM. Ace hasn’t eaten dinner yet so we headed to Dimsum Diner and he got Salted Fish Fried Rice while I had some siomai. Dennis (Doc Penchie’s BF) had a Halo-Halo in the wee hours in the morning while Doc Pench and Marie had siomai and congee. It’s already past 2 in the morning when we parted ways. I’m worried with Ace because he had to go to work before 8AM so he has only 4 hours of sleep. Anyway, we did enjoy bonding with friends so it’s worth it.
