by Arden B. Bonto LOTEK CHRISTMAS PARTY  -   This tradition started 4 or 5 years ago at Tony's house,  Gilbert was renting on one of the apartments there, and during that time LOTEK was not even born yet, the group was called THIRSTDAY GROUP, most of the original members of THIRSTDAY GROUP parted-ways with us already, some of them married, or Na-Pranning na.    (I will try posting pictures of our first X-mas party).  Anyway, 1999 Lotek X-mas party was one of the most successful parties we had.   We had the same traditional games, like "trip to jerusalem", "limbo rock", "stop dance (Mike is the King)", "palabunutan", "make Bong laugh(Rico was Bong's first kiss)" and our latest "pera o' bayong", wherein Francis was the lucky player.     We had several guests like Master Mahilum, his wife Chat, 2 long neck tequilas, several cases of beer,  no chongkies (wala na si EJ nasa Seattle na), etc.  Siyempre ubos lahat, and party 'till the break of dawn.  Oooops, before dawn pala, around  3 o'clock we have to stop co'z evelyn is having contraction already.   I was so drunk, so Bong and my brother has to come with me.  Boy,  there was a lot of check points, thank god my brother doesn't drink.  Well,,,  feast on the pictures you will see here,  yung mga wala, mamatay kayo sa inggit, lagi kayong absent!  Merry X-mas,  see you this coming December, it's also my daughters first birthday (dahil nanganak ang misis ko the dawn of 1999 X-mas party, and lastly blessing ng bahay ko (binyagan natin).
