cloud nine

Weekend was good though I didn't get to sleep as much as I wanted to. I need my 10 hours of sleep!!

Weekend started last Friday night when we ate at Banchetto.

Banchetto is like a "tiangge" of food. There are lots of food to choose from: rice meals, super size pizza, barbeque, shawarma, street food like cheese sticks, quail eggs, fishballs, isaw... and then there's california maki, pasta and sweets like cake, chocolate, cookies, etc. Just be sure to choose well because like in a tiangge, some food are more delicious than others. Beware also of the price because some are really afforable and could really give you your money's worth but some could just be a total rip-off (e.g that buko juice is really insane with P30/large cup whereas I could get it somewhere half the price with more flesh and sugar) The lasagna in rectangular aluminun containers is delicious.

So I went there with Sheri, Laven, Denise and Ruth. We didn't have much food but we had fun. Laven and Denise bought a 1.5L coke and it's not until Laven's curious impassing joke that Sheri and I realized that we had drinking containers with us (they had to use straws before that). Then came the ghost stories that were so creepy. I had to pretend that it was nothing to me while my knees were shaking wildly under the table. Ghost stories are terribly scary and yet we can't help but be curious of one story to another. We had to shake the creep off after the stories. Nobody wanted to go home at 3am since it's the time when ghosts really appear contrary to the traditonal 12 midnight.

We talked about some funny things and really annoying people after that. We talked about Gilbert and Ela who are just plain annoying by being over confident and too proud. Flaws can always be forgiven as long as you're willing to accept them and not act like you're much cooler than others. Puhlease!

Then there's this talk about annoying friends--- leeches, to be more accurate. We told our story and it was most amusing that night, that Laven cried in anger. She cried and it wasn't even her personal experience! She said she hadn't heard a friend who's leecher than our leech.

At dawn, we I treated the girls to a breakfast at Mcdo then we all had to go home at 6:30am. The sun was up and the ghosts in our heads vanished.
