Lord knows I'd tell the world if I could. But telling everyone else except you wouldn't make a difference so why bother? Maybe one day I get to let you know. Maybe I won't.

Chronicling my Thursday

Thursday- took my friends to dinner at Chocolate Kiss. WE HAD THE LAUGH OF OUR LIVES! They had this guitar and violin duo playing good music for us. This is another reason why I love ChocoKiss. And the kuya waiters are just cool. They've been there since I was in my freshman year. Love it. I hope they're still there when I go on a date/s- whenever that is. hahaha

We moved to Cantina after. We had margarita grande, weng-weng and finally Zombie tower. I'm telling you guys, zombie is a traitor ok? It tastes soooo good- like four seasons juice but after your first glass, the alcohol will kick in. CRAAAAAAZY!!!

WE LAUGHED SOME MORE.

We proceeded to McDonald's so have fries and sober up.

I shake my head at the 'kids' who were vomiting in McDo's sink and in the ladies' comfort room. But it's good to see that they had sober friends to make sure they're uhh, safe. It did enter my mind a few times that maybe they tried to drink after watching the latest episode of Glee. HAHAHA

The irony here is that of all days, my artsy friends didn't bring a camera that the night. Then again, some best nights I've had with friends don't have photos to document it. Just laughter- lots of it.

JUST SAYING.

Teenage Dream

Because I'm so happy, I'm writing a note to my crush. :)

I can't remember the last time I got so kilig- the happy kind of kilig ha? As in the teenager type of kilig. It's nice pala. hahaha Nice to get jitters just because you passed by your crush and tried to smell him. hahahahahaha (ok ok, ako na talaga ang feeling 16 years old.) So papanindigan ko na. Here goes!

Dear G**,

You were in Bacolod, I was there too. I must admit that I did mention your name a few times- in between jokes an during the game- imagining you were there. Turns out you were just at the section next to ours. I guess it just wasn't time for us to meet. Maybe I'll get to tell you this story of how we were at the same place but not together, or maybe I won't. But for now I'd like to think that one day, soon I hope, we'll be more than just familiar faces at the pitch. ♥

Bigger smiles from Bacolod Part 2

We stayed at the lobby to grab something to eat first. The players passed by one after another- surrounded by police escorts. They made their way to the street party just to say hello and then back to the ballroom where the sponsors, politicians and the who's who are staying.

After eating that overpriced plate of nachos, Mau and I went up to the roofdeck. It was pretty much a failure though because the after party was filled with screaming fan girls- no Azkal in sight. We left after 5 minutes because it was really unbearable. We went back to the lobby. And peeked through the glass panels of the ballroom. The Azkals were there. I told Mau 'Try natin pumasok. What's the worse that can happen diba?' She was hesitant so I said 'dito ka lang ba? May titingnan lang ako.' So I went to the second door of the ballroom- and I waited for some kids (prolly children of the sponsors) to go inside and stuck with them. HAHAHAHA Yes, I got it!!! IT WAS SURREAL. AND FUNNY! I guess this is what I get for watching all those secret agent series- malakas loob ko. I went around. Brushed elbows with Jason De Jong, Marc Nelson and everyone else. And then I texted Mau 'pasok ka sa second door'. When she got it, she said 'Nakakatawa. Pinagbuksan pa ako ng pinto!'

From there we just started asking for signatures, taking shots of the players. I was so sad that Neil wasn't there but OHMYGOD I saw him enter the hall through a hidden door, I ran to him and greeted him happy birthday. He said thank you. I died (duh). And then the rest of the girls saw me ran toward him- and he had to hide again. HAHA

When he came back to the ballroom, he was with Aly. I approached but the teenagers who were with me were so wild, he and Aly had to say no because literally, it was a mob. I got squished- hit Neil's abs. UGH. Of course I was delighted! haha

This is me- after getting squished between the teens and Neil's abs. That's Neil's arm btw. Had to cover my face. MY REACTION'S HILARIOUS!

Another attempt was when a sosi girl approached me to borrow my pen. Apparently she was friends with Neil and the pen was for Neil's use. I SUPER DIED. She helped me approach but Neil was feeling down and bad- he was almost crying. Our theory was he got harassed by the teenagers who followed through the secret door. I swear- wild yung younger fans. I was just a foot away from him- his face was on his arms (like when our teacher in kindergarten tells us 'heads down') and he didn't accommodate the teenagers offering jerseys for him to sign on. His friends just told the girls 'He's gonna faint na.' So the girls had no choice but leave. The lady who borrowed my pen tried to get his signature for me but I said 'wag nalang, nakakatakot si Neil.' I could see his eyes getting red- almost crying. SO KAWAWA BUT SO CUUUUTE coz for a big guy, he's actually pretty much a softie. hihi

That's my pen. Unfortunately Mau missed the pen in the frame. That girl in black shorts holding a beer bottle was the one who borrowed the pen. I think she's a model or a socialite. She looks like Kelly Misa but prettier.

Mau and I left Neil's table, the lady, failing to get me a signature, gave me their flight details instead. 'Catch him at the airport' she said. Hahaha I thanked her. I think naawa lang siya sa akin. Poor me. :)) We moved to Aly Borromeo, and then Rob Gier, then Patrick Hinrichsen. There were a lot of players there- the pure Pinoy ones too. I feel so bad I dunno their names so I didn't approach! UGH. Promise next time, I know them na!

Check out Aly's 'chicken breasts'.

Patrick Hinrichsen. He's super nice (and cute).

And then after a while, Neil was feeling better and started accommodating people for photos and signatures. I got my signature. Yay! When I thanked him, he smiled. SO SWEET! After getting his signature, 'quota na ako' I said. So Mau and I sat in one of the tables and had ice cold beer to celebrate. Yes, next to Anton's table, and a few steps from Aly and Neil. We were just there drinking merrily. haha

QUITE A STORY TO TELL. My favorite is sneaking into the ballroom. BEST. EXPERIENCE. EVARRR.

Lord, thank you. I'm so lucky, I have nothing to complain about. I could not ask for more. It was amazing. It was more than I expected. Much love. :)
