Leidy, out of boredom in theology, made a new game for us. We had to answer this question: What’s the last job that you expect your friend will hold in the future. My friends said I could never be a labandera and a maid. I totally agree. My employer will just feel cheated if they had me. I’m maarte pa naman, and I’m too lazy. I’ll probably hire another maid and labandera to do the job for me.
Pam said I’ll never hold a boring 9 to 5 job. Magdilang anghel nawa sana siya. I’m too hyped-up to be chained inside an office. I’ll just drive my co-workers crazy.

Kathy argued that she could be a treasurer, accountant, and a tour guide. Yeah, and I think she can too, if she start keeping her hankies and ball pen for more than a month. And her wonderful, wonderful sense of direction will keep up with the rigors of being a guide.
******************
Pam said she could be a TV host Oprah-style. I must contradict her. She’s more in league with Jenny Jones. I can’t imagine my bitchy friend saying in front of her audience, “When I was overweight, I felt unloved, so unattractive. But ever since I lost 20 pounds, my confidence soared!” Also, Pam is too free-spirited to tell other people how to live their life.
********************
Shayn gave us all a hard time. Maybe because she can be a stripper, a whore, a saint, a nun, a novelist, a bum, anything she puts her mind into. But for me, she’ll never be I’ll-eat-my-young-if-it-would-mean-that-I’ll-succeed executive.

We all couldn’t imagine Leidy being a stripper. The nun in the barkada, working in Coyote Ugly? Nah!

Patricia will never be a happy housewife. For any man.

Lei a sumo wrestler? Ridiculous!

Gabby, weight lifter, surfing hunk, priest!?! Eerie, twilight zone theme song please.

Last night, we had fun reminiscing the time when Pam defied the laws of physics.
A few days ago kasi, when Manila was soaked with leptos-pyrosis (tama ba?) water, we were still in UST. So we had no choice but to tiptoe around the H20.
There was this one obstacle course that we had to undergo. We had to transfer from one side of the street to another. The catch was, we had to do it with a limited space because there was the water problem, we had to contend with the sharp corner of the building, and the grilles.
Pam was the last one to go. And I can still remember her expression when she was stuck between Adelino Street and Dapitan. Her face was stuck (sorry to be so redundant, but no other words could substitute this one) on the wall of the building, like a fish in a frying pan. She was wet. She was obviously more concerned with the welfare of her bag than herself because she was cradling it despite her current situation. And she was laughing.
Looking back, if I didn’t move to help her with that bag, she’d probably stay there forever.
It was A Walk to Remember without Shane West and the Only Hope theme song. Pam was Mandy Moore. How fitting, didn’t she just say last time that Moore is her favorite pop star next to Britney Spears?

Bobby Yan in Whattamen… What were they thinking? Replace Rico with his older brother?

One drinking glass used as a props in MTB (not to be mistaken for the music television, this is the jologs version) had a price tag.

I saw my bestfriend yesterday. I was happily surprised. Laurice told me that she’s been driving for a month now without a driver’s license. MMDA, if you see a maniac lady driver on the road, please, be kind to her.
