rastafarian rendezvous: the night as i remember it
it has been a while since i went out...being a "bum" doesn't really pay well. so yes, you can say i was looking forward to to our "rasta night". and seeing my fellow trainees in normal clothes is something i've been looking forward to. can you imagine us with no sweat pants, no knee support, no running shoes? aaaah..it was definitely something. upon arriving at the party, i was greeted with comments such as "pinaghandaan talga". but really, those were my normal clothes. except for the "reggae inspired" beannie, i was pretty much wearing the same clothes that i normally wear when i'm out (not on a night out maybe). anyways, we arrived there with only but a few trainees and a couple of members. i was eager for the party to get started knowing for a fact that before the clock even strikes midnight my mom will already be on the phone nagging us "to get our butts home". but there being pretty much nothing else to do, camera flashes were everywhere. i guess everyone was grabbing the opprtunity to look humanely decent for the next batch of uploaded pics. at around 10, there were still but a few guests to officially start the party so i decided to eat and grab a can of san mig light. i knew i can handle three before i get "tipsy", and i thought i would be sent home before i even reach the third one. well..that was before i met this guy "Arlene". i had just finish my first can when he handed me a glass of what i thought was JUST BEER. well i was wrong...after that glass, things were pretty much a blur. and when i get started i don't know when to stop. i was cornered by him a couple more times...and well these were the following events that i'd much sooner forget but i don't think my fellow trainees will let me (particularly Aries):
i invaded people's personal space. i was hugging anyone in sight. but just the girls. there was Jhoana, Angie, Nette, May...im not really sure if there are others. i think Genie too.
i was "woohoo-ing" to everything.
i joined Batch 2k3 for their picture. apparently after the words "batch 2003" was shouted, i jumped out from nowhere. i almost forgot this if not for Aries reminding me yesterday.
i let it slipped. a secret only three people knew. now some bald guy knows.
again, i let it slipped. a code name only a few knew. now the very person who owns the code name, knows. shit. i remember this quite accurately. i remember my head telling me to "sshhhh" but my mouth was out of control.
i was saying "hi" to everyone. let it be known, i am not a friendly person when i'm sober.
i was annoyingly noisy.
i was pulling people to get their pictures taken with their crush.
i was speaking VERY BAD ENGLISH at some point.
i was begging Sir Bojo to adopt me for TC2.
i shrieked. a lot.
i called TB, chismoso.
i was doing roll call. a stupid thing i apparently do when i've had a couple of drinks.
a lot of other stupid things.
so there u go. i made a fool out of myself yet again. i guess i won't be drinking for a loOoOoOng time...hopefully. but let me just say this again "I wasn't DRUNK". haha..
