Bazooka Fortune: Do the Best Last, the Worst First
***
I am going to wear slacks and blouse for my graduation. No dress. No skirts. Not even stilettos (which broke my heart).
I asked two good girlfriends to help me choose what I’ll wear for our Commencement Exercise.
I wanted to buy something that I can use after the event. Specifically for future job interviews. Of course, I’m nervous. What if everybody, and I mean everybody wears a dress and I’m the odd woman out? I am going to die.
I did considered the option of buying a dress that I will not wear anytime soon, but it did not dwell very well with me.
And the stilettos, I wanted to wear a stiletto for my march, but Zha and An, voted against it. They said that I’m not going to use it again after. So we bought a practical high-heeled close black shoes.
I am going to be practical on my graduation. And I’m not going to wear dress. And I’m not going to be formal….
My only consolation about this whole thing is that there will be no court marshals to escort me out of PICC because of what I’ll wear.

I hate shopping. Unlike some people I know, I don’t like going from one shop to another to compulsively buy things. When I see something I like, I buy it instantly.
So yesterday was a very trying day for me. Especially since my two friends are connoisseurs of window-shopping. They wouldn’t let me buy the first thing I saw. We had to go one shop to another, one building to the next.
So I guess, thanks you guys… You were a great help.
Now, if only I could find the perfect bra that will go with my blouse…

A friend/classmate/crush missed call (is there such a word?) me. When I later asked him why is he calling me, his reply was:
”because I’m missing ust and everyone that have been part of my life there”
Awww… I am going to miss you too, Ellson…
I remember texting him a week ago and told him that I will miss him and that I love him (AS A FRIEND). He answered this…
”wag kang ganyan! Wala akong balak umiyak pero di ibig sabihin na di ako maapektuhan. I’ll keep in touch. Basta alagaan mo na rin sarili mo. Mahal din po kita.”
This message is still stored in my phone. He gives the corniest lines that make my heart bleed…
