Well, I'm an insomniac now. I can't (actually, I won't) sleep much because I'm too busy dwelling on daydreams again. "When will our eyes meet? When can I touch you? When will this strong yearning end? And when will I hold you again?" (that's a line from Barry Manilow's song "Weekend in New England", one of my favorite songs)
Oh, and because of those daydreams, I psyched myself (Kiarra said it's really faith) that I would meet Miley, she would fall in love with me, and we'll live happily ever after(yeah, Rowan, you are sooooo much of a realist)... what a very cheesy and cliche' storybook ending. Why don't princessesin storybooks lose all their riches and become beggars instead?
Anyway, last Friday, I went to my Grade 6 class reunion. I admit, I was really nervous to see my former classmates. Have you ever been real close to a group of people, then be separated from them for 4 years, then meet them once more? It's awkward, really.
[Actually, I've felt worse. Years ago (I can't remember how long it has been)I had a childhood bestfriend named Punggay (For the record, I didn't give her that nickname). We talked a lot, and I was her escort when she won the Little Miss La Naval pageant years ago. I'd say we were very close, but then she and her family moved to Bulacan. Now, after so many years, she moves here in Pasay, where I'm at. It's like she changed or I altered my perception. Imagine seeing a part of your entire childhood in front of you and not even being able to talk to her after a long time. I'll try and make a post about this another day]
So, I got to Las Pinas and went to my old school, Pamplona Elementary School Central. It's a public school, so that's why there are almost 70 students in one section. I used to know all of them, but 4 years can do a lot on your mind. Now, meeting them again, I felt alienated. Scared I was because I might not be able to remember their names.
Well, what was I scared about?! The party was awesome!!! We talked a lot, and we caught on each other. Too bad we were only about 21 (wait, Malaya came late, so we became 22). Here are some of them:
Leah (she's our class valedictorian. the party was at her house. I admit, she lost weight.)
Rachel (salutatorian in our batch. still spunky and really fierce (by fierce, I'm using fashion talk)
Reyanne (she's the one who told me where the party was. i almost didn't recognize her, had it not been for her friendster.)
Angelo (he is my bestfriend in elementary. we even had pet names for each other. I was Owl, he was Snake. Get It? Pet names?? Aww, forget it.)
Angelique (my crush in grade 6. she almost hadn't changed. parang si danna pa rin...pero she still talks to me naman.)
Rodney and Michael (my seatmates, which is unnatural, because there are supposed to be only two people per seat, and we were the only seatmate trio in class)
Ahh, I can't go on. MIND BLOCK!!!! Maybe it's due to that sugar rush...
Anyway, I guess I'll just continue the list in another time. When I remember how to get rid of mind block...
So, we had a blast. We really did miss each other. "To go back into one's past is shocking and unnerving, but for good or for bad matters on the nature of the memory." Weird. We actually wanted to have another reunion, but finding the place to party is so hard. I think we'll postpone this one...
So, 10 facts about me. Well, I'll put in these:
1. I'm dead afraid of heights, but I like depths (swimming pool deepness, ok?).
2. I think Trigonometry and Calculus are really easy (thanks to Sir Emboy!).
3. I like eating ampalaya.
4. The only online game I've really taken seriously is Neopets.
5. In my 5th grade, I fainted when I saw that my arm was broken.
6. I only watch scary movies in the morning. (actually, I avoid scary movies as much as possible)
7. My favourite movie is "Hitch".
8. I've never seen a ghost in person ever.
9. I am Rowan right now. I am Ryan's alter-ego. I do this blog, while Ryan takes a break in being the main consciousness of my body. While I and Ryan are good, we also have an evil alter-ego, Drakmun. He rarely shows up, but he does when I or Ryan feels frustrated or angry. You wouldn't wanna see him.
10. I LOVE (as in, you know, that love) Miley Cyrus. (hey, everyone knows that)
Well, there it is. Oh, and I tag Kuya Paul, Ket, Danna, oh, what the heck, all the people whose blog is on my linkages.
