21. :))

Hey, guess what. It's the 21^st. And it's May. Know what it means? It's... NEPHYTHYS DAY OF BRIGADA! :D

It's my first step out of the house after a short break away from computer. I had no choice; I got stranded by the low pressure. The fresh breeze brought by the leaves in a morning dew is awesome. And it is an incredible resting place on a farflung area, out of the vicinities smoggy, commercial city. Sigh. I wish to stay there for long. I had to leave it for a longer while. Sun is starting to get covered by the thick rain clouds. And, yeah, it's Juniors' Brigada Eskwela schedule, so I'd better attend. I sure don't want to miss any interesting issues at the school. ;P

I went there a little late; most of my friends weren't around. They were so busy. While same people greeted my "Hi!, Hello!", those who I expect to notice me didn't. Sigh. I went to the bench near our guard house then waited until it's time to go. Instead of roaming around the campus, I listened to those guys near me strumming their guitars and watch a friend play cellphone. On the other hand, my batchmates are almost done cleaning, so I'd better get my job done; apply floorwax down the stairs.

Just as I thought that the day was ridiculously boring, I was somehow enlightened when I finally noticed the hats floating around everyone's head, and where they came from. They told me it was Aa who bought all of them, and prepared everything early for his light years of awaited moment. I went looking for them. We went to the CR and he showed us something awesome. To tell you, it's not a gift for Krizzia Mei. It's a token for friendship, appreciation, and presumably, love. Yes, you heard it right. He loves her. We love her. Everyone loves her. She's the most dang girl ever created on earth. :)

Right after I knew of it, I went to her NOT to tell about the group's little secret, but to have here greeted coz' since I arrived, I never had a glimpse of her. But this crazy guy went ahead of me saying "Don't tell her! It's a secret!". SoI yelled back in my mind, "YOU MORON." Now, she had an idea of what was something imminent near afternoon because of Julius. So instead of bragging about the same thing, we head on the path where fallen garbages are usually at. Alternately, I and Julius applied floorwaxes at that very rugged floor. And right before I forget to take my lunch, we went to the SG room to give them a hand in moving loads of stuffs. That was very exhausting.

And, at last! It's lunchtime! While some of them have already gone off to have their lunch, the other guys decided to go to SM City, and prepare something big. What was that, I have an idea, but I'll just assume I do not truly know. I, Krizzia and Ellaine were grouped together to have ours in McDonalds: the most generic fastfood chain, and the sweetest one too. While Ellaine was out for withdrawal, I and zZia were left, of course. duh. While waiting for her, we talked something about her birthday: the presents. She still doesn't know what sort of gift shall she recieve, meaning she's expecting something or she doesn't really care at all. And Ellaine's back, full of cash, but bought our foods individually. Stuffs...stuffs...stuffs. That's what our conversation is all about. It was an example of a "filler". For? As I've said, I don't know. Just wait and see.

And, there we were. Walked through the pathwalk, and went in front of the lobby. There we saw an incredibly tall guy standing at the end of the corridor with a table on it's back, filled with chocolate cake with the generic two red & white colored wax candles shaped as numbers "1" and "5", stands for how long since that candle has been seen; together with fluffy multi-colored balloons — all bought from the mall where they at previously. Aa, walking towards Krizzia, while us, watching, and sings the everyone's favorite song: ♪ Happy Birthday! ♪ We should have at least altered any of its lyrics to match The Click Five's Happy Birthday, again, but mixed with some modern elements. If only one of us knew the lyrics.. But before we go off topic, let's continue. After the blowing of the "cake", next is the receiving of the gift. So he showed a tiny blue box which usually contains a ring, but it contains a ticket for Spa treatment, for laughtrip, I guess. But of course, I didn't laugh. I've seen it beforehand. Now, to find the ring, she should look for it. But, since it's Krizzia, everyone should yell where it is. It's on that balloon, as I anticipated. Since almost all of them already know it with the obvious exception of us, since we went separated from them, then came later. Oh yes. Congratulations Aa. Kudos to you. Awesome. You're the man.

Sigh. Back to the real deal. Actually, there's nothing to worry about anymore; everything seems to be fine and under control. After fixing the props, we had a little time inside the SG room. We had our snack there, courtesy of Oliver. That took longer than I thought. We found ourselves all tired and hungry. And now, time to go to the birthday party's venue: esperanza residence. :)

Walking on our way to the waiting shed, everyone seems to be having fun. Then later, a whole lot of trouble is what we had in going to Camaligan. Our company were split into two, in preferences of who they want to be with. Soon we realized that the other vehicle has none of them knows where they were actually heading. Then, I and Aa went out to wait for them. They arrived with complaints that they were not allowed to enter the street anymore as said by a police or so. LOL, that's funny. How come we went there without such encounters? Pfft. Anyway, forget it. The real fun can be found inside the house. So let's get the party started!

Unlike a real party, we didn't have any program to follow. But, much like the common Filipino birthday party we had this sequence: singing of the Happy Birthday song, blowing of candle, distributing the foods and eating them. And after that, they opened the TV for entertainment — videoke. And that's it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KRIZZIA MEI!!!


Now older, and I'm younger. ;)
