rainy days make me nostalgic

i always wish that i could crawl back to good old high school days. free times were spent jamming with the boys as they experimented on the guitar. they would keep playing "More Than Words", that oldie song that newly self-proclaimed guitarists liked playing. i miss the laugh trips with the girls: anna, jane, jern, raiza, leigh, daivy, roseline, and everybody else. the way jern and jane would laugh the way i do- silent but really deadly. i miss hearing daivy's infectuous laughter that would make you laugh as hysterical as she does once you hear it. i miss raiza and her girly tendencies to be uber feminine. i miss leigh and her dancing, the way she would just stand up and dance to the music we girls play every break time. i miss anna and her jokes... our serious conversations on hopes and dreams.

i miss the boys, how they would annoy the hell out of us girls but we'd love them just as childish as they were. i miss the hanging out on friday nights. the Baskin Robbins trip... the Burger King dinners... the Corniche (seaside) walks and bonding. the "truth or dare" we always played. it was really fun!

almost all of us are back home for college now but we rarely see each other because we're scattered all over. we go to different schools and we live in different parts of the metro. it sucks because i miss them terribly :'(

i will never ever forget the day when they threw me a surprise farewell party a few days before i left. all my friends and i were supposed to meet up at church in the afternoon then go to jane's place afterwards. but they cancelled out on me until jane, jern, and i were the only ones left. they kept delaying the time when we were supposed to go to jane's place! when we got there, the lights were off and WHAM! everyone behind the couch yelled "SURPRISSSSEEEE!!!!" and i was so shocked that i nearly peed my pants! haha! it was hilarious! then daivy leapt our from the couch and said, "damn! my video cam!!!" because she wasn't able to bring it. then in a half-squeaky voice supressing tears... i said "WHAAA????"! we spent the rest of the night feasting on donuts, pizza, and fried chicken. then during the night we llaid down on the carpeted floor and sound tripped... being senti and all. i will never forget that. i felt so special!

the best times of my life, i spent with these people:

jern, me, sherwin, paolo, winston, jane, and mark during our Enchanted Kingdom trip this year.


jane, jern, and me.


mark and i.


this is my favorite picture. it captured the real side of gail, jern, and jane! hahaha!

pictures were taken at Blue Onion at Eastwood when we went out one night. the dancing... it was fun! :)

i'm going to arrange a small get together one of these days before some of them go back to sunny side Emirates for Christmas.
