Tattle Tales at a Wake

Right after my exams last Tuesday I immediately went home. I packed my travel bag with my uniforms and grabbed whatever’s gonna fit to it. I really miss home and you know how it feels after a very long exam week that you can stay and just lay in your own bed or watch TV up to 3am (I insist of not having a TV here in my dorm, that’s why I’m excited to see a TV. lol).

Two and a half hours later (around 4:30pm) I was home and I saw my parents at our living room. I surprised them and gave them a hug, which I rarely do. We talked a little and then right after I made a snack for us. At around 7 pm we ate dinner! Wahhhh! I really miss home cooked meals. (Sinigang na hipon at daing na galunggong! Sarap! Heheh)

At around 8pm I met my highschool friends, my balikbayan friends, Mr. Milan, Ms. Tokyo and Ms. Jeddah (muning). We went to the wake of Mr. Milan’s Grandfather. It’s been a long time since the first two were back here, and the latter, Ms. Jeddah was back here last February. Hehe

We talked a lot and reminisce a lot and typical me, I didn’t talked much. Maybe I was still tired and sleepless and maybe I don’t really like recalling to them my highschool. As I told you before the only thing that I really liked on that part of my past are my friends. We gossip about the power couples of our batch, the couples that after so many years are still together; we talked about ex crushes and ex lovers, the people who made eruptions of pimples and caused raging hormones since then; we talked about our professors and our negligence back then. We laughed and really had fun. I even had my five minutes Q and A about medical related stuffs. I really enjoyed that because unaware I could answer their questions.

But the ambiance changed when we talked about our present relationships, one wants to settle after 2 years with her love one; one doesn’t believe in marriage; the other one is very much happy in a relationship; and the other one is as for now enjoying his company with someone. (lam nyo na kung sino ako jan. lol). It got messier between two of my friends, they had an argument but I won’t go in to details about that. But when I got home, separately they asked my opinion, but I can’t really answer them back and made them feel they’re both wrong.

So here it goes. First I have to admit sometimes I’m pompous or had criticize someone in some ways, but I was trying to be funny or at least I have to think of it if it’s alright to say or not. Secondly, there are things that are meant to say in public but if you think it will be hurtful to another person, just don’t say it or at least keep it to yourself. Lastly, I thought most of us grownups thinks the same. I mean, as we get older in terms of finding that special someone we looked pass the face or the physical aspect. I am in no position of criticizing a friend’s preference since I’m not good-looking myself. And as we grow older we prefer that someone would love us in return and accept what we are. I love my friends and that’s no secret and I speak so highly of them, but that night, that made me feel that some of us just don’t grow up or some of us stays on that era even though they were from different places. It felt like we were stuck in highschool.

To muning, I’m sorry if I kept my silence but I know you know what I was thinking. Gonna miss you again=] Now, I'm back in my dorm, we still have to wait for the promotion boards, and I think i have to see someone before the vacation starts =]
