It's the weekend before midterms and I'm flying to Bacolod. It's my grandparents diamond wedding anniversary on July 3, so there's a lot of preparation going on back in my hometown. Especially in the [G] compound. It's like my debut all over again <I kind of miss those days>, but only this time, it's a much bigger event and the sad part is I won't be able to witness it . But I'll still upload some pictures, of course. After all, that's what landed me on a flight to Bacolod: a pictorial. I got to wear my prom dress again. And it doesn't come with memories . I'd rather not talk about it. So. Where were we? Oh, yeah. The pictorials. I chose my prom dress over my after-debut dress because I didn't want to have to wear a hideous pink dress in my grandparent's grandest <for now> wedding anniversary. Well, most of the family was there, wearing formal dresses with make-up, hairdos and everything. Maybe this was what it was like during my grandparent's golden wedding anniversary . Back then, I was still too young to remember. I saw the pink-and-blue cotillion dresses again, so I guess they're going to dance one more time for the wedding anniversary . And there's the rigodon <is that the spelling?> thingy, too. It's also like a cotillion only it's for a wedding. And the dancers are adults . Updates on this event when I can.
After I arrived in Bacolod, I went to USLS for [A]pril's Freshman Night. There was a pageant, dancing and all those kinds of stuff. Went to Korean Grille Bar, but then decided to hit Goldenfield. Time to test karaoke skills. I met some of [A]pril's classmates. I don't remember all of them, but I remember [C]lark, the gay genius <according to [A]pril>, [A]vril (?), driver for the night, [B]ench, [A]pril's singing partner, [B]J (?), the having-a-good-time?-guy and [G]retchen, the Tangub-based dancer plus more I don't remember. Descriptions are extracted as told by [A]pril. Okay. So, I'm not sure who they were. Whatever.
Tomorrow, I'm leaving for Manila and I'll be back to school problems and work, work, work. I finally went to [A]pril's new rented place. I think she's living with her brother, [A]donis, sister, [P]riscilla and nephew, [O]ris. I took a bath there <as if it were my home...hah!>. I tried tuning the guitar, but I got no luck. The pitch just got lower. [A]pril also told me that her friend had died. I think I've met her friend before. It's disturbing how one can be robbed of life at such a young age. I guess all you can really do is pray and live everyday of your life as if it were the last. Just live life to the fullest. [O]ris was getting really annoying, so I made my scary face and he bawled then yelled for mommy. Poor, poor [O]ris. Scared of a wittle facial distortion. Oh, and I cannot believe I left my cellphone in the compound. To self: Told you something was left behind.
I am getting very sleepy and I still have a 7 a.m. flight to catch tomorrow. 'Till next time. Baboosh.
