"Love makes the world go round? Not at all. Whiskey makes it go round twice as fast."

I had a terrific time last Friday evening...actually, it lasted until Saturday morning. Sherlock (not his real name), one of my officemates from my last work, celebrated his birthday and was kind enough to invite me on his dinner treat. It served as get together at the same time. Paulsmith, palelips, coldbitch, rex and vat69 (obviously not their real names) were all there. That day was also paulsmith's last day at FBM. Palelips on the other hand, is just like me, a resigned employee of FBM since the first day of February. Rex and coldbitch are planning to leave soon. Seems like they were also infected by the “leave-FBM-flu”. Only vat69 and sherlock will be left in that miserable company.
The dinner was a killer. I ate till I can hardly breathe...hehe. Sherlock also invited some of his officemates from his past work. Although the group was divided, I think everyone had a great time. A free dinner in a good restaurant… who wouldn’t?
After the dinner, rex invited everyone to have a coffee at Starbucks. That wasn’t planned. I didn’t bring extra money for any extra expenses aside for my daily meal and transportation. I told rex about it and she offered to pay for my coffee…wow! I really know how to choose my friends! More chitchatting took place at Starbucks. Sherlock’s ex-officemates joined us although I’m not quite sure if they felt obligated or they just enjoy listening to paulsmith’s lame stories and rex’s corny jokes. I’m in favor of the first one.
It was almost 2:00AM when we decided to leave the infamous coffee shop. Sherlock and his ex-officemates headed home. Vat69 offered us a ride back to FBM. At first, coldbitch, rex and I were planning to go back at FBM to have a movie marathon just like the old times. When we were at vat69’s car, most of us were hesitant to go home or go back to FBM. Vat69 suggested hanging out somewhere. Off we go to Antipolo. There, we rented a cottage…I mean, they did. Because again, I had no money to contribute…I’m such a freeloader the whole time and man, it was fun! We talked the whole time while drinking beer except rex’s who’s such a baby when it comes to alcohol. They interrogated coldbitch regarding her lovelife. It was fun. I didn’t expect she would answer the boys’ questions since she’s such a coldbitch, but she did…I don’t know if it’s because of alcohol that she loosened up a bit. It was a good thing though. We were also entertained by the trying hard videoke singer in a cottage adjacent ours. He’s hardly hitting a note and yet he kept on singing as if the audience are having the time of their life listening to his voice. One of his companions was already asleep with his mouth wide open. That picture already made my night. It’s more breathtaking than the scene in front of us overlooking the whole Manila.
At around 4:00AM, we started heading back to Makati. I fell asleep on our way, the next thing I know, were in front of a cheap gotohan somewhere. We had our breakfast there. I felt so bloated with all the food and alcohol inside me that I hardly touched my food. We finally arrived at FBM around 5:00AM. Coldbitch decided to stay there till the sun breaks. Rex, paulsmith, palelips, vat69 and I went home.
Needless to say, I slept the whole day.
This Friday, we’re planning to go to my college's campus fair. I’m looking forward to that...another sleepless night of music, alcohol and stupid stories.
