AFICS Acquaintance Halloween Party

Hey guys! AFICS is the Alliance of Filipino Chinese Students! If you’re from one of the five schools under AFICS — Ateneo, Lasalle, UA&P, UP, and UST — then I’m inviting you to our acquaintance party! :”>

It looks like it’s going to be fun! Contact me for a ticket (200Php) at 0923-2657212. 

Yes I’m posting my number online. I am not scared of stalkers. Teeheeee.

You don’t have to come in costume but it might be fun-er!

Havaianas PlayBack

I wasn’t really planning on going to the event. This day was supposed to be for meeting up with Geoff to talk about HIVE since it’s about to get published and all. But then he texted me the day before to ask Jayvee if he wanted to have coffee with us as well (YES I STILL OWE YOU A CUPPA COFFEE!) and Mr. BlogBank replied that he can meet us in the bloggers event today and that, “I’m bringing my dog!” 

Commuting to places I’ve never commuted to before = disaster for Tiffy.

First blooper would be reading Neil Gaiman’s Neverwhere while riding the MRT with my iPod on loud. After a few stations, I started panicking — I THINK I MISSED MY STOP. Turned out I didn’t. Well, good thing I turned my iPod off and stopped reading anyway, cause the announcement over the MRT was messed up — announcing that we’ve arrived at Buendia station when, in fact, we’ve arrived at Ayala. 

And don’t get me started with the bus drivers who didn’t know where the bus stop to Ayala was! I ended up calling up Bong more than five times today, asking for directions.

So I finally got there. PLSKTHX! 

Outdoor games? I was already perspiring from the commute. But then I saw all my other blogger friends and it was all good.

For one thing, I’ve never talked to byahilo.com before and I figured that they were wary of letting people into their group; but then as soon as he said hi while smiling his shy smile, I WAS HOOKED :”>

And then… THE GAMES! THE GAMES!

Tumbang preso, piko, patintero, Chinese garter, sungka, sipa, and lakad lata. Teehee! I missed playing these old-school games. Although I’ve never really tried sipa and I don’t ever want to try again. You’d be laughing, too, if you saw me fumble.

Oh! And if you were at the event, you wouldn’t miss this bossy guy! Coughtheguywiththecameracough. He was ordering people around. Ish. Like the time he called me and Bong to play sungka for the camera. That time, we were talking to someone from Geiser Maclang. He all but frowned at us for not going to where he pointed.

Or the time they were playing patintero and he was shouting for them to let the guy through.

Well of course we’re all supposed to humor you because you’ve got a camera and you shout instructions at us, direk! ;D

All in all, it was a happy day. I got to meet with HIVE and a lot of the other bloggers. Honda Fernandez, the doggie, turned out to be a really behaved dog who’d sleep on the floor of Coffee Bean while waiting for his “dad” to finish with his meeting.

Tee hee.

And then after, I got to have dinner with my mom and sis! 

Guess who finished the Uni?

I’ve Moved In

Yes, yes, I have.

Why? 

Because for one, I didn’t want to keep my old blogspot blog. Weirdly enough, I made it when I was in… high school. So you can just imagine how pea-brained I was back then. Who puts a dash in their URL?

Even Jester had half the mind to make the move to jesterinexile.blogspot.com!

Plus the fact that I don’t really love amethysts. So why be an amethyst lover, right?

Besides, when I told Ozy that I was moving, he said, “Yay!”

And that was enough.

Second, I wanted a tiffy.somethingwhatever.com blog address. And since, not surprisingly, that URL is taken elsewhere, I checked in here and voila! Easy on the memory, no?

And lastly, if the exchange student thing is pushing through, I plan on taking a leave from work. Permanent or otherwise. And truly — sanriotown blogs have too long a URL. http://blog.sanriotown.com/amethyst_lover:kuririnmail.com/, anyone? Btw, I made that email address when I was 12. So shoot me. 

Okaaaaaaay. 

So… What do you think? 

Smores Snores

Long days can be had.

I’ve been starting this bad habit of turning the laptop on while I eat. And you know what THAT means, right? Yuh huh — Plurking while eating. Which would be good if you want to eat slowly. But not when you’re meeting with friends at 11am in UP. 

So I ended up being late. But so was Mon.

Twas Anj’s and Vicky’s joint birthday celebration — they cooked us lunch. So we went and bought all of us a cake! That smores cake = YUM. 

I really oughta get myself some Gossip Girls action, huh. I couldn’t relate, LOL. 

Donut-ing in Lasalle

I was supposed to meet with Niqui in Lasalle for lunch. But then silly Globe didn’t let the message reach me that she had to do her Bio lab report. So I was at the LRT station. Oh sod it. I’ll just meet with other friends. But then other friends also had classes. So I ended up meeting with various different people. 

People like Stan, Kenevvy, Sheryl, BeChan, Cobs, Charmaine, and Hazel. I missed them :”>

So waddya do when you see each other again? 

Take pictures!

Well, it makes it all worthwhile — waiting until 4 for oldschool dismissal time. And then hanging out at Cello’s being loud and all.

Catching up and mostly talking about who’s dating who, who broke up — normal kinda stuff. 

Now don’t you wish you’re back in high school?

Nah, not really.

I still get to be with them anyway.

:”>

Pictionary

I have two questions.

1. What’s this supposed to be?

2. Do you think I can cook?
