Last weekend (starting march 04, friday night) i had a fully booked appointments with some people (relatives and friends) that i haven't seen for years... starting off with my good ol' pal Francis Legaspi. He said that we havent seen each other for 4 years already (that long already? i know it's been long but i dont think it was that long.) We met in Tower Records, Glorietta around 8pm since my office is just a kilometer away. It was very nice to see him again, and damn... he still looks the same, just a bit chubby. He claims that he looks older than his age should show, but i dont see it that way. Anyways, we ate dinner and had some conversation... just updating ourselves on what had happened during those years.
After that meeting with Francis, i went straight ahead to my birthplace Marikina City (which i haven't visited for years as well... maybe 3 years) to meet my relatives and greet my cousin on his 40th birthday. Unexpectedly, the old kids of that compound was there as well already chatting with my siblings. It was an instant reunion and had some talk about their love life and their kids and stuff. I was kind of the loner there coz i was the only one in my batch/level (since there was this age heirarchy during our times... my batch was already in the 4th level, the youngest batch). Lots of reminiscing as well, all those crazy stuff that we experienced in that compound. So much talk that it took us until 4am the next day. Me and My siblings still went home to Laguna and had more than 2 hours of travel.
At that same day (saturday), we went back to Marikina and went swimming with just the close relatives... it's just a continuation of the birthday bash. Later that evening, me and my siblings went out to play billiards with our old friends. It was so much fun, and i had a lot of beginners luck (i play billiards quite rarely, just to let you know ;P). Again, finished around 2am the next day and still have to go home to Laguna.
Sunday evening, went to my Alma Mater... University of Santo Tomas and met Franklin (who is going to tie the knot this coming week.) We as well had some interesting conversation... we even got pushed away coz the University is already closing most of its premisses since it's already late. We waited there to meet Francis which he arrived at the exact time that he mentioned (8pm). We then went to McCafe in Quezon Avenue, and continue with our conversation. It was kinda short though since we already have to think about work the next day. Even though it was short, it was worth it. I arrived home in Laguna around 1am the next day.
Sigh, it was really tiring yet such a great experience... such overwhelmingly fun. I wish that it would happen again soon, it does get your spirit high. Anyways, i guess i'll just have to wait again for that opportunity.
