Yesterday
Finally, after almost a year, Efgee, Stacey, Camille and I had the chance to hang out-- this time in Shangri-la since the two dance divas (Stacey and Camille) are attending Trumpets there.


I picked up Efgee some time past two and then we proceeded to Shang right away. It was traffic but we were still early. The two dance divas weren't dismissed yet. So, we went around for a while, bought ice cream in FIC and walked, and walked, and walked. We browsed through a lot of stores; walked to and fro. LOL. Fortunately, after a while, the divas showed up and we stopped there right in front of Toby's and talked for a really short while. Then, we started the fun.


We got into a lot of stores; we looked almost everywhere; we went up and down the escalator a looooot of times. Finally, we settled in Plains & Prints and that's where we got clothes. Well, 1 each since we were running low on cash. LOL.


My favorite part there was when were all in the fitting room; all 4 of us. Camille was the funniest then because.. nevermind. You wouldn't get it, anyway.


After buying, we went up a floor to eat in SumoSam. We spent quite a while there since we were second on the waiting list. When it was our turn to sit and eat, I felt quite funny. We were the only young barkada eating alone there. LOL.


ANYWAY. After eating, we still went around a bit. After all that walking, we only bought a shirt each. I was actually planning on spending all the money I had left since we only had 20-30 mins left then. But we were too late, Rustans and the other stores (except for some) were closing already. Boo-hoo.


It was Camille who left first. Then, the three of us went up to the 6th floor (Powerbooks) to meet our parents who were waiting for us. Well, Efgee still rode with me back home. :)


Obviously, there's only one word to describe the feeling I had when I was with my friends yesterday: fantastic. I really wish we could all go out another time. It's fun seeing them. It was sooooo much fun. I just couldn't say how jumpy I was.


Today
Of course, early morning was for soccer. Actually, I was thinking twice about going or not since I was quite jetlag (sp?) from last night's event. But concluding that I'll be absent for three days (next week), I decided not to miss it.


Today, Coach Raffy was assigned to us. He let us bring rubber shoes because we were to sprint uphill. Ha. Tiring. And, we did it for 10 times. Shoot. And, take note, he wanted sprinting NOT jogging. Ahhh. I was panting real loud after all that. LOL.


After a while, we did some drills (as usual). Then, we had the game afterwards. First game was to hit the cones. There were two cones to guard and two cones to hit for each team. Ah. It was freaky. Hit the cones? LOL. Now that's what you call challenging.


Afterwards, we had the whole field to ourselves. Shoot. Running and blocking the ball was quite difficult. Argh. It's hard to control the ball when the others are trying to tackle it. Sheesh.


As of now, I have two bruises on my left and right legs and two scratches on the leg too and one on the arm. Ahhhh. I got dark and my shinguard (sp?) left marks. Ahhh. So, basically, the color of my skin is not even. Ha. Imagine how funny I look with those marks.


After soccer, it's Kumon. Then, in the afternoon, music lessons (voice and piano). Ha. I don't have a voice anymore. Just a little bit more then it'll need recharging.


Footnotes:
1) I wasn't able to watch American Idol last night. Boo-hoo. But I found out that it was Eliott who was sent home. (Er, I thought it was Katharine who's going on third place. LOL.) But surely, it's Taylor who's going to win. Obviously. I mean, everyone just loves him. He has so many fans. He's so energetic and Simon simply likes him. So, it's Taylor for this season, I guess.
2) I'm quite into reading Time Magazine these days. I don't know. I just got hooked with it since my grandmother has subscription to the said magazine. It's not really that entertaining but I don't know what catches my attention. Weird.
3) I found out that The Da Vinci Code was rated R. Shoot. People are really too concerned these days. I mean, the book says that it's fictional. Grr. Anyway, there are pirated dvd's to save us, right? *claps*
4) My music lessons might be extended for another hour. Shoot. My schedule is hectic. It's going to be three hours this time. Err.
5) Congratulations to those Filipinos who conquered Mt. Everest. LOL. There are 3 already, I think. Anyway, I bet there's a whole lot more to come.
6) Belated Happy Birthday Kathia. LOL. I just found that out from Angel.
7) Pictures from last night's event are with Stacey. Well, most of them. Stacey, copy please. Haha.
8) I've got colds and it sucks. Phff.
