One of my bestfriends in highschool died last week. Mao was only 27 years old and she just gave birth. It's painful to reunite with someone who's in a box. We used to to a lot of things together. We made tambay, we got drunk, we hiked, hell, we even helped each other shoplift stuff in a mall. Can't help but cry since she was a part of my semi-wretched funny highschool existence. You see, as i've already told before, we were quite the ridiculed ones not belonging to the pretty girls, the feeling rich kids, the ones who had big houses and the ones who sported the latest stuff in America of which highschool was so cliche about. We're the ones who just go by and sometimes taken a fancy by some so called highschool boys to see what kind of imperfections we have and blow it up to bits. 

I was once ridiculed. They said i had smelly armpits. It never really ruined me because i know i was a part of a boy's ego boost. Somebody to pick on so he would feel good about himself.  Who cares. Where is he now? He's as fat as two drums working his ass off trying hard to be a nurse in a sea of thousands of nurses. Now he's gonna be my ego boost. That's life for you.

I thought college was worse but it was the greatest 'kabalintunaan' i ever experienced. People just don't care. I thank God for my college existence beacuse i had a blast. Highschool was a budding socio experience for me so i cried on the day of our graduation because i know, deep in my heart, things will never be the same again after highschool. And it was true. People who ruled then couldn't rule the world outside highschool.

Speaking of highschool, Mafhel is coming back to Manila. It was 12 years ago since we last saw each other and i am so excited. I just hope i'll finish my script in time for her arrival so all things will flow as smoothly.

To Mao, even if we hardly see each other, i love you and will always cherish our days gone by. I've always been attached to my friends especially to the ones i learned and grew up with.

Some yummy treat we had at Omakase-- a japanese resto in morato in the Il Terrazzo building.
Daming tao pag weekends kaya pila ang reserve seating. Pero happy naman.


You should try the Jurassic Maki.
I can say it's a "Happiness Maki" You can't help but smile upon eating this.
8 pieces of happiness. 6 lang yan dahil kinain ko na yung dalawa.



One of my favorite too is the salmon sashimi. Salmon is a wonder really!




And apart from the good food, the hearty eating also comes with good friends.
Friends who know how to work it in a public  fountain with not a care in the world!




Ang masasabi ko lang: Tangina sarap!
