Get Up and Stand Up
May it be 30 or a single point... what matters is the outcome.
Bottom line is.. we LOST!
It was not only the game, but also the season for one of us.
Sad, I know. But what can be done?
Pick up the remaining pieces. Get up and stand up!

Bakit kasi mahilig magpaka-FPJ?
Why do we always put ourselves in helpless situations? Why do we want to take the long and strenuous road? Why do we love to get in a deep hole?
Why waste time and wait when it is almost over before we show some sort of desire? Why do we have a tendency of falling behind and at the last few moments that is when we get up and fight?
Instead, why not fight and give it our all right at the start?
Bakit kasi mahilig magpaka-FPJ? Pwede rin ERAP? Yung tipong magpapadehado muna at magpapalampos bago babawi at lalaban.
Then again, the reality is even if how hard we give it our 110% there is no guarantee of ending on top when everything is over.
Masakit man tanggapin pero ayun ang katotohanan.

What Happens After Office
First stop was a birthday dinner. Initially, the plan was to have it in an American restaurant. But due to the political situation of the country we ate in the land of seafoods. It was definitely a good decision! We arrived on time. Food came in non-stop. There was this soup with small calms, calamares, huge sweet and sour fish, sinigang na pla-pla, baked tahong, oysters, tempura and CRABS! Boy, I was so confused to which one to attack first. Knowing me, I am not the type of person who would mix and match various food all at the same time. I am this one at a time kind of person. I am not a playful person na pinagsasabay. There was period that I felt that I was being punished or they were preparing to "grill" me due to all the food available. Ang sarap!
Everything was perfect. Good food plus great company. I was with people whom I haven't spent time outside the office. Laugh trip. It made me wonder if the food was spiked! The best part was no so-called guilt afterwards since it was a Friday.
Side note:
After dinner, we walked around the area to make the food go down. This guy bought gum which he offered. He extended his hand and 3 boys got who was followed by 3 ladies. However, there were only 2 left. I guess hiya prevailed and the 3 ladies took 2 steps back. The this woman came out of nowhere and said.. akin nalang and got the gum who was followed by another lady subsequently. Lesson learned, hiya would bring you no where.
Next stop was this wine tasting event. Headed to Malate. The place was different. It was hidden in the midst of all the bars which gave it an exclusive and safe atmosphere. There were like 9 bottles. I got "schooled" on how to drink wine, how to slurp, how wines are processed and how to identify which is which. Yeah, I was feeling classy at that instant. Then again, it needs many many years to be a master of this craft.
There were many happy people around. Never ending singing and at times with matching dance number on the side. Probably the wine kicked in.
I did not want to leave yet but I had to since someone will make tampo. The last stop... Makati for this birthday bash / despidida. When I arrived, only one celebrant was left. Whoops. But it was all good. More drinks, more songs and more conversations. They are really a group who I can call family. Nakanaman.
So this is what happens after office on a Friday night.
