Weirdos and Flor threw me a shower party last December 26. That was also our post christmas party. Bheng, Lotty, Ghen, Ella and Flor were all there. Bheng & Ghen were my secondary sponsors. Lotty was one of my bridesmaids. Flor was my maid of honor and Elle was my fantastic host during the reception. She really poured her heart out in making a very very good script. Everybody loved her for it, she just made my wedding much more special. Thanks elle, thanks ghen, bheng, lotty and flor. Love you girls!!! :-) My wedding would have been much more special if Vanj, Ana and Cristy could have been there. But that is just fine, in spirit they were all there, wishing me well :-)

I have been to Manila last Sept 29 to October 7. We had that 1 week off from work to fix a lot of things there. Of course, i met up with the Weirdos. The assembly time was at 7, at starbucks ATC. As usual, everyone's late except me!!!! Then we proceeded to dencio's for dinner. Bheng made sure she followed even if she just arrived from Sydney that night. Ella was late but she was able to make it. Lotty was there too. Her bf Noni was very friendly. Ghen was the earliest with husband Mark. I am glad Jun made it too to represent cristy. It was so much fun! We were so noisy but, for all we care! heheheheheh. Later on, we proceeded to a videoke bar to scream our lungs out....of course, the night wont end without pictures being taken. Once i have it developed, im gonna scan it and post those pics here in my website, so watch out for it :-)

Before i left Manila, it was only Lotty, Cristy, Ella, Ghen and myself who have seen each other often. We really found time to meet up after office hours just to sit and talk about anything under the sun, or should i say, under the moon? :-)

Paulinians1992 now already have a mailing list and the website is under construction. It is surprising that the group have increasing new members daily. I never thought I would be able to get to communicate with my classmates in highschool and even in gradeschool again....I dunno how it all started. I just know that im enjoying it a lot, i am always looking forward to getting emails from the entire group. Once the homepage is up, ill link it to mine so you guys can also view it :-) Paulinians 1992, the best batch of seniors ever!!!

We spent Christmas 1997 at Ghen's place, which was a potluck party. Afterwards, we had a blast singing our lungs out at a videoke place, and later we had some drinks at the very cool Galo's (we were literally freezing, the night breeze was very cold). Ella got drunk, and we all had a great time, although Ghen's driving leaves much to be desired (hi Ghen!).

Christmas 1998 (still a potluck party)was spent at Cristy's place(our usual hang out). Later on, we went to Slim Jim's at Fort then to Conservatory at Peninsula Manila. We really enjoyed so much and we were laughing our stomachs out till dawn. I hope we have as much fun next time.

Holidays 1999 was celebrated at Cristy's place (i told you, this is our fave hangout). It was very simple but we had a great time. Vangie went home from Texas, USA and joined us. Ana was there too . Ella and Ghen were not able to make it. They promised to see us one of these days though. We ended the party by exchanging of gifts, got a very beautiful angel from Lotty and a cute Southpark pillow from Cristy :-) This Christmas party is really very different from the parties we had before, but it's one of the happiest. Considering, we still have each other for friends is one of the greatest blessings God has given me :-)

Christmas 2000 was a very memorable time for me. It was my last x'mas before i went here in Malaysia. Of course, there will always be a day for Weirdos alone. We went to ATC then had drinks at Dencio's grill in Alabang.

Guys, thanks for making me feel that i am special, for loving me despite my tantrums and mood swings (hehehehe!). I really miss all of you and i'll do my best to spend the next holidays back home to be with all of you. I just can't imagine myself not being with all of you on christmas.... (sigh! i hope my boss would allow me to go home)


Every moment spent with them is full of laughter and mayhem, and we don't hesitate to show our true selves even when we go out together accompanied by our boyfriends who really get along so well too (do they have a choice? hehehehehe)

Ghen got married early 1999, i was the bridesmaid and cristy was the maid of honor. You know what, Ghen already has a cutie baby girl. Her name is Mary Gabrielle, she looks exactly like Mark (hay, dunno kung malas or lucky yung baby eh! peace mark!!!!)

We went to Dampa, Paranaque last march 18, 2000. Lotty and Ella (again? hay!!!) were not able to make it.It was a night of full chatting and laughing :-) I temporarily forgot about my diet. We went home super busog and almost cannot walk back to the parking lot.

The group slept over here at my place last april 8, 2000. we had some drinks and a heart to heart talk. We enjoyed so much and we're super puyat.....but it was fun. Hope we could spend time with each other like that again soon.

Got the job in DLSU as college instructor just yesterday (May 23, 2000). My friends Lotty, Cryst, Cristy, Philip, Michael and Ella (it's a miracle, ella made it, she was'nt even late and got there ahead of us, hehehehe) had dinner, had some drinks & played billiards. Got home late, good thing cryst brought us home. bait mo cryst! hehehehehe. It was fun to be with them, as always!!!

Lotty, you're awesome! When i'm with you, i dont have to pretend at all. Thanks for loving me and accepting the real me, always!

I miss going shopping with you, i miss putting make up with you, i miss going out with you, i miss chatting with you, i miss "our bonding", i miss everything about you girl!

Cristy, thanks for being a great adviser, for always showing me both sides....you always do a great job of enlightening me :-) You have to keep your promise to me...remember, you will be my maid of honor!!!

Ella, even though we seem to be always on the opposite sides, i know that deep in our hearts, we love each other deeply. Hey, thanks for calling me. I feel so special, you know. Ipapadala ko na lang kay beng yung... you know!!! hahahahhaha!!!! Do you miss the angel's breath smell?

Vanj, you've been away for quite a long time now but still, you get to communicate with us very often. I am glad that we are constantly keeping in touch. I hope to see you soon... I miss you girl. Can you promise me you'll be home for my wedding?

Ana, I hope that you can find time to communicate with me. I really hope to hear from you soon. Goodluck Dr. Ana!!!

And to the rest of the Weirdos, thanks for being there for me always, thanks for the fun and laughter, thanks for the good times and bad times, thanks for the memories. Im so blessed to have you guys around. I love you all, weirdos forever :-) (hmmm, ghen, dito ka! bwahahahahahhaah)
