"words taste like peaches today."

i. the lsyc retreat

was ok. there were only three retreatants so the facilitators were just mostly sitting around and talking or playing the guitar or whatever. jonat brought a copy of the best of science fiction 2003 and let me browse through jeffrey ford's the empire of ice cream and david d. levine's the tale of the golden eagle. cool isn't the half of it.

highlight 1: discovering three cups of ms padua's broken glass gelatin in the ref.
highlight 2: jonat falling down the stairs.

ii. maan's debut

was basically our first batch reunion. strange how suddenly everybody knows everybody else. except for classmates or friends, we really didn't pay much attention to each other back in high school. i guess it's the same as hating your siblings until they move out.

highlight: jonat saying "ayoko siya." in a loud voice exactly as the cotillion music stopped playing. although i must clarify that he was not referring to the dance, popular opinion holds otherwise.

iii. the palaro ng bayan

was slightly worse than it was better. kuya maynard lost his mind and put me in charge but luckily regained his sanity a day before and took charge of it himself. i now feel that the youth need discpline more than they do education. i won't even mind if ping lacson wins and installs martial law, as long as he knows what he's doing.

highlight: agawang-buko a.k.a. wrestlemania xxi

my job's going fine, thanks for asking.
