i'm really, really, really happy.
for something that took only one very hectic, very hot-tempered, very stressful week to put together, i think the party was pretty good. :D
and i got lotsa lotsa presents. quote: "Blimey, I think I'll come of age again next year." =))
manileñas, thanks SO SO SO SO MUCH for being there!!!
aki_midori, it's good that you still came after all. ree and i finally got to meet you, nya~!
simply_kim, you practically told me the gift na. tsk. what kind of questions are "you don't not like lamps, do you?" and "you don't have anything against soccer, do you?" conclusion: she and aki got me a soccer lamp. *sweatdrop* nya~, shinpai suru nai. i luff it much!!!
aoireeza........ the dolphin is do'kawaii~!!! and
yumeyana, i super luff the bracelet. it's classy enough that i can wear it and still look very stylish, and casual enough that i can wear it everyday. thanks much, guys!!! *huggle*
ninakins!!! ferrero rocher!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *glomps you* haha. i was sorting through my gifts, and a lot of them didn't have tags... i had absolutely no trouble picking out which one was yours. duh. you're the only one i can think of who would use pink Hello Kitty wrapping paper. =)) >:D<
rozzie gave me a felt-sewn eiji!!! haha. it's a small circular plushie-thingie with eiji's face on it. honey, i LOVE the card. (she drew a ♥ then a chibi!oishi onto the card under the plushie. *glomp*)
eby... yeah. i'll get around to reading that book. *sweatdrop* she got me a book entitled "Eureka!" by a local writer, Queena Lee (Queena Lee-Chua?), whose column in a local newspaper is always science-related.
tuaters... you're the one who gave me the "Dating for Dummies" and "Romance for Dummies", right?... are you trying to imply something? *raise eyebrow*
marge!!! i luff the pillow. that's a bear, ne? and the tissue box... thanks much. i miss being called "boom". ahehe, symbolism...
kate, thanks much for the CD!!! the odyssey closest to me doesn't have Rachelle Ann Go's second album. thanks much much much!!!
jean... shoot. i wish i'd said "Mark Bautista" instead of "Christian Bautista". now i've got double copies of Christian's album (it's Neil's fault, i thought he was seriously giving me a Danton Remoto book). oh well. when he comes to SMBicutan to promote it, i'll have the first one autographed and tuck it away. i'll be listening to yours. :D
neil... grrr. *pulls the Christian CD out of the clearbook* *throws the clearbook back at you*
bet... did you give me someth -- oh. right. the CD from last week. haha.
gellie... i KNEW it. i KNEW you'd give me a mug =)). and i super super super love the medal. thanks so much, hon. that means a LOT to me.
dais!!! kawaii pillow!!! it definitely wins the award for "Most Utilized Gift".
bri! what kind of a gift is coming in late and inadvertently causing 7 other people to be late??? >:( haha. nya~, because i luff you much, you are forgiven... NOT. :))
i passed by training just to poke my head in and say 'hi' to them all and tell those who i'd invited (none of them came due to other obligations, i.e. UAAP, WNCAA, and school) that they'd missed a very delicious lunch. =)) ian, the look on your face when i came in was PRICELESS. damn, i wish i'd gotten a picture of that. jen, yes, i know i looked pretty in that dress. =)) though i really do not appreciate the VERY low neckline -- can that still even be called a neckline? ohdearLordalotofpeoplewentthroughunthinkabletorturethisafternoon.
i don't recall ever having attended a party in which i couldn't stop smiling. okay, fine, i'm the celebrant. STILL. and gelo's absence and the messing up of the powerpoint presentation that had our picture just made the entire party sweeter. i certainly didn't expect that many people would actually come. i'm really, really, really happy.
