at last after 13 years
i havent done it in quite a while, 13 years to be exact...the last time it happend, i was still in college...i never thought it would happen to a level headed person such as myself...but it did, because last friday...i got mind numbing, world spinning, hearth pounding, gut puking drunk!
it started as an innocent relaxing night out with my officemates at our house... a guitar, a couple of song book, roasted chickens, bbq, cigars..a few bottles of beer, a shot glas and a bottle of absolute vodka...then as the night went on...we sang a few song, exchanged a few jokes, laughed a lot.. and before i knew it...i was heading to the toilet to spill my breakfast, lunch and the vodka out...until nothing else can come out...Yuck!! what happened to my "general" anethesia theory ? (i had tons of theory which i call "nasusulat" one of them was that its hard for people who were once operated and injected with general anesthesia to get drunk.....i also have a "sex in the workplace" theory but thats another topic altogether...so ill post about it some other time..har har.:))
the rest of the night happened in a blur...i can hear voices, and people singing and laughing (maybe they're laughing about me..who cares??? intoxicated people dont really care about these things)...i was dizzy as hell, my throat hurts, i cant barely keep my eyes open... wondering when i have to go to the bathroom again to do another round of puking.....
so whats the moral lesson of the story? "ill never drink a drop of alcohol as long as i live" --- nahh...maybe for the next 2 weeks...but after that who knows? LOL!

villa escudero - may 27'06
i had a non planned, spur of the moment trip to villa escudero with my niece and friends last last saturday.
an office mate from penang was here for the weekend and he wanted to do some sight seeing while he's here, ...i actually have no idea where to take him...i just know that it has to be somewhere filipinoish, near enough so we wont waste too much time traveling and unique. i usually rely heavily on the net whenever i travel and i spend hours and hours of research before the actual date.... but this time i had to come up with something fast ..... so when he called me up that saturday morning... i told him...lets go to villa escudero... and he just said ok lets..
its been years since i visited the place...so i only have a vague memory of what it was like...
