“Tsong, Kids Oh..”

It was Bong and Wes who labeled us six girls (me, Tel, Jan, Loville, Anne & Twinx) as “Kids”. (Clean fun. Naïve. Immature. Occasional teachers’ pets.)

Not anymore, boys. Things have changed. And tables have turned.
Not true of course. ;-)

The Cast: Met in college. All young and innocent then. Seventeen and shy. Taboo that time: Cutting classes. French Kissing. Favorite Place: Anne’s house in Tandang Sora. Priority: Studies and Lunches in Ken Afford.

Cliché, but really, it is nice to look back & of course to look ahead with these people. Who would ask for more? It’s definitely a complete package- from a regret-hater-thus-living-life-to-the-fullest tisay, to bubbly and life of the party ‘puti’, to late bloomer but happy being one, to smoker turned health buff, to consistent achiever, to almost everybody’s dream boat, to recently resigned goddess & supreme thinker and to glamorous and lover girl overseas. Everybody has his or her own unique ‘karakas’. Just great! :p

We had a superb deliberation just now. Nakakatuwang tingnan na yung mga dating nag-aaway sa PE or sa group projects ay nagkasundo ngayon. Guess we really have grown. Hindi na makikitid utak. Hehe. This is baduy for some but what the heck, kami naman ang nag-uusap at hindi sila noh! Anyway, deliberation included: 1. change isnt a bad idea. 2. breaking out from something you’ve been comfortable with is ok too. 3. doing what you believe is right & trusting your own instincts are positively part of “getting there”. These are old issues, passé, & repeatedly told in different versions already pero very seldom lang i-put into action. Confrontations are hard to deal with so we’d rather ‘stick to the plan’ (and there are so many things to consider too).

Resolution? Wala eh. Just live life the way you like it (without the expense of others, of course). There.. ganon ka-simple.

So to you and to all of us… *wink… we are old enough already. We sure can manage. Good luck to you and to us. :-) Here’s to kids and to potros!
