un-haunted Halloween
Happy Halloween!
Arrived home from PJ's house an hour ago. Now I'm back to being bored.
I got to ATC at around 2:30 pm. Aris had arranged to meet there at 2 pm. Darn traffic. Too many people going to Alabang. It's always the same every Halloween. More and more people (especially kids) go to Ayala Alabang every year. Anyway, when I got to the meeting place, Aris was the only one there. We still had to wait for Iam and Raffy. While Aris and I were waiting, I spotted Mishell walking by. Haven't seen that girl in quite a while. She told me that Kris was there as well, so I went over to her for a few minutes.
Anyway, Iam and Raffy arrived about 15 minutes after I did. We sat around for a while because PJ was the one who will be picking us up. Janice and Marge happened to walk by with their friend (I forgot his name, though), and they hung around with us. When Peej arrived, Iam, Aris and I went with him, while Raffy stayed with the other three. He also stayed there for another reason. His new girlfriend, Love, was meeting up with him, and he'll be bringing her along with him to PJ's house.
When we got to PJ's house, we just sat around the living room, as usual, talking and joking around. Later, Raffy arrived with Love in tow, as well as Marge, Janice and their guy friend (whose name Iam and I keep forgetting). We got kinda bored after a while, so we decided to walk around the village. Lotsa kids milling around the streets with yayas alongside of them. I saw a couple of houses with the coolest decorations, like a creepy ghoul on the front lawn with a speaker set up with ghoulish noises.
Then we decided to go to our old high school. Well, we knew it was closed that day, but we just wanted to pass by anyway, since it was just a 10-minute walk from PJ's house. We walked right past it and surveyed the field, where most of our clique spent our after-school hours sweating it out in track and field training. Then we headed straight for the park. We spent a long time there, just standing by the monkey bars, reminiscing our high school days, recalling old jokes, crazy anecdotes from our teachers, and classroom pranks. Marge, Janice and their friend left after a while, while the rest of us stayed until around 5:30. Then we walked back to PJ's house.
We went back to our usual place in the living room, while PJ booted his PC so we can watch more episodes of Whose Line Is It Anyway?. Ramon arrived sometime in the middle of it. Then Peej's mom called us for dinner, so we went to the backyard to eat. Heeheehee, I haven't pigged out on pasta in quite a while, so that's what I did. And Iam and I couldn't resist but take huge slices of blueberry cheesecake, one of our favorite desserts.
We then retired to PJ's rec room, where he, Aris, and Raffy played around with the Dreamcast while Iam, Love and I looked on, giving crazy commentaries on everything. Ramon seemed quite content with PJ's PC.
Iam's stay came to an ubrupt end when her older sister called, telling her that their grandmother had just passed away, so she was obliged to go home. I decided to go home as well, and Raffy offered to drive us out of the village.
I sure hope Iam and her family are OK.
Other than that, despite the fact that our clique was kinda few today, we had a lot a fun. Too bad Rosa went off to Baguio earlier today.
Oh well.
I wonder how Ari is. He was also in AAV the same time as I was. He's at a party at Uly's place right now. Oh well.
