Dayo

May bagong bisita na dadayo, sila ang nakasama namin nung kami ay nag-WILD WADI. Dahil pareho silang pogi, nagboluntaryo ako na akin ang isang bote. Pero late akong makakarating dahil sa trabaho, ang bilin ko sa nag-organisa ng party.

Pasado ala-una nang silay aking madatnan. Lahat sila ay bangenge na, kaya inom ko sa alak aking binilisan. Dahil wala pang laman ang aking tyan, agad akong tinamaan na humantong sa padalos-padolos kong galaw na tila ba walang pakialam.


Agad akong umorder ng dalawang bote, kahit ang nasa mesa ay di pa nangangalahati. Gusto kong magpa-impress, ipakita ang aking superb hospitality. Malay mo, ang bisita sa kama kami matulog ng magkatabi.

Pero sa di inaasahang pangyayari, si Wendell nawala sa sarili. Dala ng kalasingan, nagsusumigaw, nagiiyak na walang iniintindi. Broken hearted daw sya at gusto na nyang umuwi. Nang ihatid, gusto namang pumirmi, hay naku! Nag-iinarte.

Bad trip, si Rodel nagwalk-out. Ayaw nya sa eksenang taliwas sa rules ng party. Aniya: “Tamang tawanan, kulitan lang sana ang dapat ipakita. Hindi ang madramang eksena na daig pa mga artista.”

Patuloy ang aming pag-inom sa alak na lasang lason. Palibhasa mumurahin pero kami walang ibang option. Tawanan, kulitan na para bang walang katapusan. Kaya ako’y bumagsak sa kama na tila walang pakialam.


Di ko na nalaman ang mga huling kaganapan. Pero balita ng aking kaibigan marami akong tinawatagan. Kaya pala telopono di mahanap kinabukasan, buti na lang tinago ni Amor na isa sa kainuman.

Matinding sakit ng ulo aking naramdamn, paggising ko kinabukasan. Sumumpa sa sarili na dina iinom kailanman. Ewan ko lang kung ito’y mapapangatawan.

Kung ikaw ay OFW kailangang magsaya, upang di umuwi sa Pinas na para bang balisa. Kung ikaw ay magkukulong sa kwarto ng mag-isa, ikaw ay matulala tatanda kang bigla

Malungkot sa abroad pero kailangan labanan, sakripisyo sa sarili’t pamilya dapat taasan. Dahil kung di makayan ang lungkot sa ibang bayan, pano na lang silang umaasa mawawalan ng yaman.

Wild Wadi, my 6th time

I’ve been to Wild Wadi for 5 times and every time my friends invite me to go back to the place I simply say “no”. But last Saturday was a different story, I did not hesitate to go back to the place because 1. I want to use my new Billabong board shorts; 2. I want to flaunt my sexy body after frequenting the gym for almost 3 months now; and 3. It will be at night so the sun will not kill us.

We reached the place at around 6pm and immediately line-up to the counter and pay. After sometime, we saw our selves yelling and shouting, enjoying the swimming pool and the rides that this water park offered.

I feel so happy walking around the area with my new shorts on although most of the people wearing the same. I taught that my body is good enough but when I saw people in the place, mine is unflattering. I still have to work out more.

The most interesting part is the weather. Wild Wadi is perfect at night. You can enjoy all time without thinking of sunburn, heat stroke, and other related sickness for over sun exposure. We did not notice the time, it runs so fast. In fact, most of my friends wants to stay more although we already enjoyed the place for almost 6 hours.

The group of friends I am with this night out gave me a refreshing feeling as well. They are so cool and funny and everybody treated one another fairly. Plus the very good looking people in the place that adds excitement to the magnificent view of the amazing hotel, Burj Al Arab.

Geraldine, Glaiza, Wendell Charmaine, Arvy, Cherry, and the two hunks from Nozumi, Maraming Salamat! I had a great time.

Till next time!

PS: Chicken Burger in Wild Wadi should come on your dining table first before other. They use fillet instead of patty and used fried potato slices instead of ordinary French Fries.

Sa Matalik Kong Kaibigang si John

Eto si John, ang matalik kong kaibigan. Sya ang nagtulak sa akin sa mundo ng kabaklaan. Grade 3 (June, 1989) kami noong unang nagtagpo, hanggang ngayon na kahit nagkalayo, puso't isip namin ay nagkakasundo.

Sa kanya ako unang umamin na ako ay bakla, noong di ko na matago at nababahala. "John, bakla ako", ang pag-amin ko sa kanya. "Alam ko matagal na, bruha ka!" ang sagot naman nya. Mula noon, nalaman ko kung pano magsaya, ngumiti na walang halong kaplastikan at humarap sa kanino man. Nalaman man ng tao ang tunay kong pagkatao, pero feeling ko gumanda ako at ang mundo. Salamat John!

Disco, malling, kape, sine, foodtrip, sextrip, at kung ano-ano pa. Ako'y naging masaya sa feeling nya. Di ko alam na kahit kulang kami sa pera, nakakahanap kami ng paraan para magsya. Pero lilinawin ko lang, di kami magsyota. Ewwwww!

2005 ako'y nangibang bayan, Dubai aking pinuntahan upang dito maghanap ng kabuhayan. Naging malungkot man nung una, pero sa tulong nang teknolohiya, kumyonikasyon namin ay di nag-iba.

2007 muli kaming nagkita, maikli lang dahil emergency lang ang eksena. Namatay kasi ang ate na lubos kong kinalungkot pero nandyan sya kasama ng iba pa, kaya madaling nanumbalik ang aking sigla.

Kalagitnaan ng 2008 ako'y natuwa, dahil from Davao lipad sya patungong Manila. May job offer sya papuntang Saudi Arabia, excited ako dahil next level na kaming dalawa. Bagong bayani, pang-international ang beauty.

Dumating ang 2009 at di pa rin nakaalis, tinatanong ko kung bakit, ang dami daw mintis. Patuloy ako sa pagtatanong kung anong klaseng mintis, pero ang dami din naman nyang dahilan kaya malabo na daw ang kanyang paglisan.

May 2009 ang sumunod na uwi sa Pinas, at muli kaming nagkita ng matalik kong kaibigan. Excited dahil kami ay gagala, di sa probinsya na aming kinalakihan pero sa syudad ng Maynila na sobrang yaman, sa kabaklaan at iba pang kamundohan.

Bathouse, bars, dance clubs aming pinasukan. Malate ginawa naming tambyan. Isang gabi, kami ay nagpamasahe (link) at tumuloy sa aming kaibigan na si Phoebe. Tawanan, inuman hanggang magdamagan. Feeling mayaman na dati’y sa panaginip lang.

Di mapapantayan ang saya kapag si John ang nasa tabi. Palagi syang may baon na nakakawili. Gano man kahirap ang kinakaharap, gagaan at liliwanag kapag sya ang nakakausap.

Nang ako’y pabalik sa Dubai na aking pinagtratrabahuan, lungkot na naman ang aking naramdaman. Panay ang tanong sa sarili kung ito ba ang kailangan, ang bansang sinilangan ay di talaga mapantayan. “Maswerte ka!” ang sabi ng kaibigan kong si John. “Marami ang gustong mag-abroad, pero di napagbibigyan.” “Sa muling pagkikita!” ang iyak ko sa kanya. Di na nahiya ang tunay na naramdaman, dahil emosyon ko di na napigilan.

Dumaan ang mga araw at mga buwan, wala ng balita sa kaniyang pangingibang bayan. Ayaw na daw nya dahil di nya kaya, mas gugustuhin daw nya kasama ang pamilya.

Setyembre 2009, apat na buwan mula nung kami nagkita. May sinabi sya sa akin na lubos kong kinabahala. Messages online sa facebook una nyang binalita, agad ko namang tinawagan para ako’y maliwanagan. HIV infected daw sya kaya di sya pumasa, sa trabaho abroad wala ng pag-asa.

Natakot ako sa kanyang sinabi, dahil hindi man lang nya nabanggit noong kami ay magkatabi. Ang mahirap nagkasabay kami, sa mga lugar ng paraosan sa bandang Malate.

Ngayon, ako’y nalilito. Kung kukuha ng test sa Pilipinas bago ako mabuko dito. Pero ano ang magagawa ko kung magpositibo, di ko alam… Dyos ko, tulungan ako.

Sa ngayon, patuloy ang buhay. Kung ano man ang ibibigay ay tanggapin ng buong husay. Ang mahalaga, naging mabuting umaalalay. Sa kabutihan at katahimikan, pilit di sumasablay.

Sa kaibigan kong si John, walang iwanan. Sama-sama tayo at magtutulungan. Ano mang unos ang ating madatnan, kaya natin to sa tulong ng pamilya at sa Dios na lay lalang...

Kita-kita tayo sa FINALS!

1st Photo-shoot Everrrr!

Ngeek! August 16 pa pala ang huli kong post at ang laswa pa. Para naman ma-update tong blog ko, magpopost na lang ako nang kung anu-ano. Anyway, wala namang nagbabasa dito.

February 2009 bumili (utang actually) ako ng dslr camera dahil na rin sa blog na ito. Naiganyo din siguro ako ni George na kaibigang chuva dahil isang araw, kinuha akong photographer sa mga katrabaho naming babae na binihisan nya ng bonggang-bongga. Kahit point & shoot lang ang gamit, aba! naaliw kami sa resulta.

Fastrack...

After 1 and a half year of having this gadget, noong Friday the 13th, August lang talaga ako nagseryoso. Nang pakiusapan ako ni Eric, ang aming butihing Purchasing Secretary na kunan silang mag-asawa ng retrato para sa nalalapit nilang kasal sa simbahan sa Pilipinas. Mega-excited naman ako dahil first time kong mag photo-shoot session kaya super research sa internet at nood ng video sa youtube ng mga pre-nup pictures para naman di ako mapahiya.

At eto na nga...
At eto pa...Sample photos lang muna dahil sa halos 500 na kuha, 5 lang ang pumasa sa mag-asawa, kaya may susunod na session pa, heheheh!

PS: hindi pa yan in-edit ha... reduce lang!

Happy Birthday Bobby!

Yesterday, was my roommate's birthday Bob, aka "ang Mayor ng Tondo." He was known mayor for being so friendly, happy go lucky, trend setter, party maker, and above all lassenggo.

The day started with a surprised birthday wish from his close friends. We put birthday banner, balloons, and cooked food for breakfast before he came home from a night shift duty.

When he finally arrived, we wished him by surprise. He almost cried. And the party is on from morning till late at night.

Colleagues and friends helping each other to make this day special.


Happy Birthday Bobby!

Stress Relieved

Because I was not invited on my friend’s (AMOR) birthday party, I contented myself browsing the photos I took during my vacation in the Philippines last April – May, 2009.

Look what I’ve got! My close friend, in jeans...

From Brusko Gwapito young man to….

Katrina Halili wanna be! bwahahahahahaha!


So girls, be careful of whom you kiss for.

I miss this guy terribly. Thanks bro! Hanggang sa muling pagkikita.

Stress relieved.

Uninvited

I was bothered of the noise from the room in front of my window (Amor’s place – Spa Therapist). They were shouting for joy and singing happy birthday to which I don’t know who is the celebrant. I try to busy myself doing personal stuff but my mind keep on asking why I was not invited. Going to parties here without invitation is a common, but I seldom do that or if not at all times. I was also tempted to peek from my window on what is going on and felt bad that most of my close colleagues and friends were at the party.

I contended myself the privilege to be alone. I browse the internet and watch video clips: Pinoy Big Brother, TV Patrol, and some music video from youtube were just a few I watched. I updated my personal bulletin board on the wall and vacuum the floors. Lastly, writing this blog entry.

People from the party might be happy if I join them. But, I decided to stay in my room for my personal belief and principle that you have to sacrifice for a greater pleasure. I might miss the party this evening but who knows, I might not enjoy if I push myself. Or, there might be a big celebration to come that those who did not invite me will cry of envy, (BITTER Ocampo) lol!

Dolphin Show & Chinese Circus

We were lucky to be invited for the opening day of the Chinese Circus and Dolphin Spectacular Show at Dubai Creek Park’s Dolphinarium. The show cost Dhs. 120 (Php 1,500) per person but thanks to yours truly that we get it for free by communicating to their sales manager. The hotel also provided us with transportation so it was a hassle and expense free trip.

I was with Geraldine (Business Center Secretary) Leya, Rubi, Wendy (Guest Relations Officer) Aileen (OTS) Supervisor, Amor (Spa Therapist).

The show was great although most of the time were Chinese Circus performers were on stage. But I was amazed when the dolphins had their time. Dancing, flipping on the air, were just few of their tricks. The seals were equally outstanding as well. I keep on asking myself how long they spent to teach these creatures.

We departed the place with empty stomach so we decided to eat. It was the best McDonalds’ food I ever tasted for years. I finished 2 cheese burgers, large fries, and large coke in less than 20 minutes. GUTOM!
We had fun.

I met Ms. G, at last!

One of the good things that happened to me last year was when I became a member (since September 2009) of MGGFF or Manila Gay Guy Friends Forever, a networking site made by the author of Manila Gay Guy blog exclusive for his readers. The site is like my extended family on line. It provides me a place where you can meet other people, express your thoughts and inspire you to live life. What more interesting is that everybody has a common denominator, which is being gay.

Our first meeting with members of MGGFF UAE was last October. Ares, Yann, Tsin, Thor and myself were just so delighted of what happened that is why we decided to do it again last November and the experience was equally memorable.

Today, we met again and with a new member of MGGFF coming from Bangkok, Thailand - Ms. G. She was so adorable and full of life. She can make you laugh in the middle of storm of perhaps when your boat is sinking. She has all the stories to tell to make your day enjoyable behind the pressure of work, family and people around you.

The meeting was very good. I might be the weakest link of the group (less stories to tell and I feel so awkward of my TAGLISH) but they made me feel comfortable.

KUDOS to Ms. G and Yann who is so generous to pay the bill!

My BFF is HIV Positive!

In my desire to make my vacation a big blast which was set last April and May, I planned it out 5 months earlier. I visited google search frequently looking for informations that I can start with. My objective is to explore my gayness in the capital.

Thorough this I encountered a blog entry when I hit Malate, gay capital in the Philippines on the search bar. The author gave me detailed informations on what to expect in the place. His blog page also gave me links on other gay related sites that were very helpful. Fascinated by the way he writes, I read all his entries on his archives and found out that he is HIV positive. Blessings in disguise, it gave me interest to broaden my knowledge on the disease and cautioned me when my vacation will come.

Last April and May, the time came. I explored Manila. We went to Bathhouses, Dance Clubs, Movie Houses, Coffee Shops or even public parks and university premises that are known for finding hook-ups. I have less guilt to be infected if I just consider my sexual encounters during that period but still, I did not get my self tested.

Last September 25, my very good friend, Bobby whom I spend my happy moments in Manila during my vacation talked to me online. He informed me that our classmate in high school, Earl (gay) died with AIDS. I was shocked; I spend time with him on my vacation. I can’t imagine that I will know someone personally that will be infected by the disease. Bobby made a follow-up question: “Ikaw ba kapag nalaman mong HIV positive ako, di ka magbabago?” Equipped with the info I read from bloggers who are HIV Positive, I gave him words that might comforted him. And the big revelation came, my very good friend for almost 2 decades is positive with HIV. I immediately called him and felt the pain in his heart. His last words on the phone were: “Sana nandito ka!” and I answered him, “Bobby, you are my best friend forever!” and the line disconnected.

Bakit Ako Galit!

My friend Robert visited me today on my room. I was struck by his news that the emcees for this year’s Staff Annual Party are Evans (Kenyan), Lea and Joy. Robert is part of the working committee. I was so affected of the information that my thinking keeps on asking to the point it bothers me for hours. My thought is questioning why I was not considered wherein I was one of the emcee last year with Lea. The head of the Working Committee, Ms. Theresa don’t even bother to ask me if I am willing to participate as what I showed of last year’s event.

Bakit ako Galit?! Why I am so insecure especially when these time (events, parties, gatherings) comes. I am event organizing addict. I am very supportive and willing to give all and yet it gives me heartache if I feel neglected. I am very sociable and yet I don’t have a core group that I can hang-out with when there are fallbacks or when the expectations did not meet. I love to be in the center stage and yet so scared of what other people might tell during the occasions. I get stressed instead of having fun!

Hahahaizzz! Am I a geek?

Maybe yes, when my mind tells me so. Mind is so powerful that even you don’t want to think about it, it keeps on rolling to your head especially when it matters to you most. I hope for this coming Staff Annual Party, I have the guts to enjoy and present my self well. Good Luck to me!

May G4M account? Hmmppp…..

Nino is an ultimate crush. His youthful charm and charisma made him on the top. What made him so adorable is the way he treated other people. He is the only person who hugged me (so) tight wishing me well a night before I took my emergency leave to the Philippines 2 years ago; He likes to send forwarded messages talking about love and compassion but I told him to stop it because I keep on misinterpreting it; etc. etc…

He is straight, as my gaydar signalled me. As a matter of fact, I know his girlfriends. Yes, girlfriends because he had 2 relationships with our colleagues and the 3rd were from our sister company not to mention what he had in the Philippines. In fairness, it was one at a time. Come and go - a typical playboy.

Since Nino is so dear to me, I let him borrow my laptop. He knocked my door one morning, enter my room and lay on my bed beside me after knowing that my roommates are not around. “Naglalambing.” He will download songs to his IPod. Although, hesitant I can’t resist his smile and his way of begging me. After saying yes, he immediately took the computer and walked out. Bullshit, hehehe!!!

The following day he returned it to me. He said thanks and went back to his room. I immediately open it and check if it’s not broken. Thanks God, it was not.

I open the internet explorer and type G4M (one of my most visited site) on the search bar. My email add is MrCens@yahoo.com. When I start hitting the first key, I missed “M” instead I started with “N” which shocked me. After I hit N, Nino’s email add appear on the pop-up. “What a fuck! Why he has a G4M account?” Hmmpp…

I did not bother to ask him about it nor move to the next step to express my feelings. The most important thing is we are good friends and loving him from a distance is good enough for me to be satisfied. To make my day complete and put a smile on my face every time I see him is the best gift from him. If Nino is straight or bisexual, it doesn’t matter to me anymore. The most important thing is to respect him as I want him to do the same to me.

Test Shot

I just bought my NIKON D80 camera. I immediately went home and read the quick start manual for familiarization. Actually, I don’t want to use it without reading the manual because it’s too expensive (for me), I might break it on the first day of use. But my roommate Bobby is super “kulit” begging me to take some shots with him, and the result:

Bobby (with "yosi")

- Father of 2 beautiful daughters.
- At age 40 still looks good and flawless
- Full of energy, “tumatanda daw sya ng paurong sabi ng mga naiinggit.”
- He had a short relationship with President’s (ex) niece, a very famous personality.
- A fully recovered drug addict
- Very easy and fun to be with, gimmick or work wise.

Adrian

- Tall, dark and handsome
- Most friendly especially to girls but public enemy ng mga Security Officers. Pasaway kasi pag nalalasing.
- Recovering addict and Dubai is his rehabilitation center which is very effective (sabi nya).
- Very generous
- Mahilig sa speakers, amplifiers, head set, basta audio, expert sya.

Seriously, these guys are my kapamilya. I am so blessed that even I am away from my real family, they let me feel secure almost all the time. I can count on them always. We just shut up when we had misunderstanding. We love and respect each other.

Sa kakwarto kong si Bobby and Adrian, I salute you guys! The memories and experiences that we’ve shared together inside the 4 corners of our room for 3 years now will last forever in my heart.

I love you!

What Happen? part 3

I posted 2 blogs entitled “What Happened?” (Part 1 and 2) in October of 2008. The first part I emailed to Manila Gay Guy for advice and had plenty of response not only from the author but from his commenter as well. Today is the 3rd installment of a roller-coaster-ride life experience of my friend Robert on his gender identity crisis. Please read the part 1 and 2 of this post dated October 23 and 25 respectively before proceeding.

My phone beeped as I start my work tonight. It was a text message from Robert, a close friend informing me that he had a drink with Henry.

I distanced myself to Robert since he has his girlfriend, Larcy. Although, every time we were together we keep on discussing our most favorite topic, MEN. I don’t know if it’s right for him but were quite sure that we both like it, fantasizing men.

Henry, 25 joined the company 6 months ago. He is very interesting physically that made me the effort to win his attention. What I like him most is the way he treated me. Text, miss calls and visiting me on my room without hesitation on regular basis were just few of the things he showed me lately, things that you will not expect from a straight guy like him. Nothing happen to us yet, hehehe…. Although we slept together one night but I was too drunk to do my trick. As far as I can remember, he’s the only guy I invited to go out for dinner alone aside from Robert. I feel so insecure to go out with someone whom I knew. It should be a group of 3 or more, or I go out alone.

Back to the text message of Robert that reads: “Jul’s, kainuman ko si Bisaya. Parang delikado, parang may mangyayari…hehehe. I was distracted after reading his message, distracted not out of jealousy but for his girlfriend Larcy whom I know very well. I remember those times that Larcy asked me about the real identity of Robert, if he’s really a gay or not. I did not answer her yes or no, but her love with Robert will cover all his weaknesses even his identity was my advice to her.

“Easy as 1,2,3 lang yan Bert. Kahit di mo lasingin, bumibigay yan. But Bert, isipin mo si Larcy” was my reply to him. He answered “Bahala Na!” I then texted him: “Bert, malaki kana. Alam mo na ano ang tama at mali . Iupdate mo na lang ako bukas, hehehe…” that was our last communication for the night.

To be continued…

Eureka!!!

I’m happy like Christmas!” exclaimed by Misterhubs when he received an appreciation letter from E of the Chronicles of E. Same feeling that I had today. Why? Because my long time friend - Jon found someone that will take care of him, a boyfriend.

The 37 year old high ranking official of PNP (Philippine National Police) with one 15 year old daughter proudly confirmed it to me over chat this afternoon. Our conversation was smooth as silk and shared common interest. “Sayang!” and we have to cut it short because he will go to work. I was amazed of his stories and looking forward to meet him in person.

I’m happy with Jon. Hope that their relationship will last long. “Kailan kaya ako makahanap?”

Sigh.

Lulu Island Resort - Abu Dhabi, UAE

May 9 2008 we went to abu dhabi to visit the much talk of the town LULU Island Resort. An 1,050 acre man made island coast off to Abu Dhabi completed in 1992. After several plans which were subsequently dropped, the island is now being developed as a mixed commercial and residential project. It was rumored that Lulu Island was going to be a tourist’s destination for a Disney theme park during the mid 90’s.

We reached the place only to find out that it was under renovation and close for public use. We decided to go to the nearby beach in the place and ate our lunch. The incoveience brought by the heat of the sun made the group to decide to come back to Dubai and spend the rest of the day at Wild Wadi Water Theme Park. Whew! What a waste of time, money, effort, etc. Nevertheless, we had fun at the water park especially to those first timers. Duh!!! That was my 4th time. We end the day eating the rest of our “baon” at our accommodation lawn.Last November 2, 2008. After 5 months, the same group are now again heading to the place to where gave as disappointment. To Lulu Island Resort in Abu Dhabi.


We travelled for 2hours and a half from Dubai to Abu Dhabi because our driver doesn’t know the way. I called a staff from the resort and he gave me the information on how to reach the place. And wallah! Here we are… sun, sea, sand. FUN, FUN, FUN!!!

Pido Dida!

Have you ever seen the Filipino film, Pido Dida? A Comedy film starred by late Rene Requistas and Kris Aquino that talk about love and friendship that was a hit on 1990.

If I am Pido in real life my Dida is Maria Fe B. Superar, my childhood friend who is in Korea for work. She is a friend closest to my heart next to my immediate family. We’ve known each other for more than 2 decades and shared moments that can be remembered for a lifetime, both happy and sad. Here are few of thousands crazy moments we had together.

o Bahay Bahayan, Lutu Lutuan. Our most favorite play time activity during childhood years. We were confused who will act as a husband and wife because I always prepare the food while she is always out from our small house to provide our needs.

o Mini Concerts. We always sing songs on a jam packed coliseum with more than 10,000 viewers. When we opened our eyes we found ourselves in the middle of the abandoned house, on the top of the tree or sometimes in the middle of the street during late hours. Imagination really brings you to everywhere you like.

o Instant Sales Agents. One day, we were asked by her Mom to man her ukay-ukay business along NCCC Department Store. We spend our income on buying spaghetti and hamburger and we went to a theme park after. Her Mom did not ask to do the same thing again.

o Exhibitionists. We did orgies trice. We had sex with a man, a lady, a gay together. We were straight acting but purely homosexuals. We go out together like boyfriend/girlfriend but were hoping for a hook up on our kind.

o Fake Superheroes. We organized a party for our close friend Jen on a nearby house together with few other friends. It ended up with a huge trouble. Jen’s brother went on that house and confronts us differently. We try to save our asses but big commotion took place, “rambol, nagtago kami!.” The following night, one of the relatives of ate Jen killed our friend.

A whole book with 13 chapters and 600 pages will not be enough if we will tell our experiences we had together. I can say that most of those were unusual as we are different from the majority. But these differences had brought us from where we are right now.

We might end not to be together but those experiences will keep our friendship forever. We might have our own priorities but knowing each other for long time is priceless. Only time can tell and only future can predicts what awaits us.

To my special abs, may the best man/woman win! Sounds challenging but we are not competing each other. We are just helping each one of us to do more. Chow!
