Girl, it just looks to me, you look like you're lots of fun. Open up your loving arms, WATCH OUT, HERE I COME!! - "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)" by Dead or Alive

We had our Christmas party on this time, and for the first time, I was the trendsetter (dream on, Spet!).

So, as I was approaching the classroom, the first thing that they noticed after my prescence was how my new 'do fitted well with my Fendora hat. When I went to Kurag, Mao wanted to arbor my Fen, Tobi first complimented my Fen and my hair, Eun complimented my hair, Piano liked my Fen and Arnel liked my hair. I wish I was a Fen or my hair. T^T

And, boy, were the poods mouth-watering!! *drool* I still remember the brownies!!

The games rawked, specially Water War, since I was the dryest (I AM THE VICTOR! MWAHAHA!)

After it's all done, I went straight to Hi-way to get a jeep home. When I was about to cross, Faith (my "mummeh", since I'm'r monita.) came to me crying, as if a rat was ran over by a bicycle (I emphasize your situation there, Pet, but people just look ugly when they cry HARD). She was telling me about her wallet getting lost seconds after she placed it in her bag while riding a jeep. Since I emphatize her (I lost a pouch with a cp, remember?), I helped her ou in anyway I could. Too long to explain. Scullote's lazy. T^T

Then the home part. I was able to ride along with Virna, Tobi and Pau F, and we had an anime chat session, the longest about being Rurouni Kenshin, or Samurai X (prefers to call it RuroKen, like Watsuki-sensei does). I spoiled fanmate (I hope. she talks about it enthusiastically) Pau about Rurouni Kenshin: Seisohen (Samurai X: Reflections), e-s-p the "part" part (if you know what I mean). After (swiftly) finishing telling the end part, I got off and rode a tricycle home.

So, after classes, I went home to get my mom and go to SM Taytay to shop for gifts for Bing-go and Chief. Upon arriving, I expected to count RiScians like sheep there since 75% of the population has drifted off to the mall to buy gifts and enjoy the long rest-time before the big event. It did turn out that way. After entering, we immediately saw three schoolmates.

First destination: Department Store.
There, mom looked for add-ons for Gabo's gift to his monita while I searched for good Hallmark wrappers. In the store, we found around 4 or 5 RiScians.

Second destination: National Bookstore.
Since it was hard to think of a gift for a person who doesn't like one, I lingered there long enough to see my classmates and the (super-irritating) Love Crew, led by the stenchy Markx Cenal. Pardon if I got it misspelled, like I ever cared about it anyway.

Third destination: Blue Magic.
After finally deciding to give him a filler case and two FC ballpens, we went straight to Blue Magic, where a large number of RiSci students flocked. While struggling to fit in the small stall, I spotted a familliar face, and no, she wasn't a schoolmate... Well, she used to be. And she was one of my beloved friends: Myka.

Thinking at first that my eyes have just mistaken, I followed her all around to confirm who it really was. We stared at one another when we met, shouting one another's name after the S~L~O~W~ seconds we saw. I never thought I'll see a very good pal hanging around there.

We talked about how we did when we haven't met, and I felt as if I was becoming fluent in English again, no, I think my grammar was at least acceptable. Yeah, that's it (I used to talk in English often in AA). The talks were all about AA and everything underneath. T'was from her that I realized that Dawn Mass was the day after.

After a series of Quid Pro Quo, we bid goodbye and I went to my next destination (with Mom, of course...)

Fourth Destination: Department Store.
This is where it all goes. This is where I find more RiScians and more possible gifts for Bing-go.

Fifth destination: Hypermart. And everything underneath.
Finally, my favorite part... or should I say, the scariest of them all. When mom was buying shawarma in one of the stalls, I looked to my right hand and noticed the unevitable: I LOST MY CELLPHONE! This made me stand up and run all over to all the places I've been to. Only one result came with the search: zero. Mom and I went to the Customer Service and then to the Information Center, where I elaborately explained the details (White Animob Pouch: has a black-with-pink-tail cat on it, on the center were 2 houses and clouds, and inside are a Nokia 5200 cellphone, a charger adaptor, and three pesos), hoping an honest employee picked it up. Still, nothing happened. It's over.

Sixth destination: Romeo Tagle.
Disappointed, mom and I went straight to Romeo Tagle to get my hair done. I got a shaggy cut and the news that half of Rizal (including Angono) is suffering form the consequences of not changing old water pipes.
