valentine's day 2010

like all valentine's day, i spent it like the i have always been spending it for the past twenty four years and that is being single but not alone.

friday night: i went to the city to meet my former housemates. being people from boracay, my housemates are really good in making pulutan and mixing drinks. after four bottles of 'the bar' apple vodka, we are ready to hit the bed. the morning after is always the hard part, vodka is really not friendly to my stomach, not even my favorite honey crunch bar can cure my hangover.

saturday night: i have a whole day class. out semester is almost over, so many papers need to be submitted, so many presentations, so so little time. so instead of going back to the dormitory and start working on my papers, i did what any normal student would do. go to your friend's house, get drunk and forget everything. there was a little problem though, i got really really drunk i cannot even believe i did it. i drank the 700ml gran matador alone. yes, ALONE. i don't even have pulutan to go it with, i only have glass and unlimited ice cubes. and before i knew, and before my friends noticed it, i finished the whole damn bottle that was a free gift from their office last new year. i can't remember what happened next, i woke up dressed in another t-shirt. i have to commend the brandy though, i didn't have a hangover. or mayber it was because i threw up three times before i finally went to bed.

sunday night: valentine's day, the day for lovers but for single girls like me. we went to the mall to watch, guess what, 'valentine's day'. it was okay although i was really expecting more. i guess i'm still a sucker for 'love actually'. there was a scene where jessica biel was lying on the floor, high on chocolates. my friends kept laughing because the scene was familiar the night before. but it was me who was lying on the floor, high on brandy. the day was concluded in a seafood restaurant, eating sisig and bangus, listening to good music and having just one bottle of san mig light. yes, this time it was only a single bottle.

like what i said, i am single but i did not celebrate valentine's day alone.

kampai!
