I ran into a
lot of people I know today.
On the jeep to school, I bumped into my Batch 8
UP AME buddy,
Stav. He looked so stressed and was even quieter than the last time I met him. He actually looked so different I wasn't sure at first if it was him. I hope he'll be okay. :( Told him I missed him and for him to smile.
Met up with
Reena to drop by the
UP AME Fair Ingress, chatted with people and started some prodwork. Had lunch with Reena at
McDonald's Philcoa since I was to have a
UP LUNAROCK sem planning there later on. Would be going to her house in the late noon to get some more work done for our info booth.
I was surprised to find my buddy when I was an AME applicant,
Ate D, sitting at a table having lunch, and promptly glomped her to death because I missed her too. At that moment,
Joseph, my batchmate from LR arrived, and I invited him to sit down with us.
Then, out of the blue,
Mayie and Bogs from my
Theater11 class suddenly ambushed me from nowhere (from where in the store did they come from!?) and I gave them lots and lots of hugs. They told me they couldn't resist greeting me. "My butt was TELLING me, URGING me to get off of the chair and talk to you," Mayie said. I was touched. Heehee. ♥
I finally sat back down and chatted some more with everyone at the table when I realized that
Clang, a batchmate from FA, was seated at the table in front of (and to the left) of us. She was waving, hence why I finally noticed.
LR people eventually came in and we had our meeting, then I zoomed off to Reena's, managed to cut myself with a cutter while attempting to unclog a bottle of adhesive, freaked out over the sight of blood (and laughed like a madwoman because
I am so smart), and thanked Reena over and over for the first aid. We had a wonderful time laughing and telling stories while working on our props. I'm really glad I can go out and spend time with friends while finishing stuff, too.
I laughed so much today because I didn't think I'd run into so many people at the same exact time in the same exact place so soon! And to think I had just been discussing the same topic with some
PinoyWrimo friends, except when it came to people I knew online. (Hello, you guys online! ♥ Haven't forgotten about you!)
"You're like the center that links to everyone - you seem to know so many friends of friends,"
Mia once told me. Such a small, small world.
At least I'm still not
Diego. XD Put him in any random room full of people and he's bound to know
someone in there.
I think the only thing that would make this day even cooler was if I also ran into my Batch 9 AME buddy,
Mikey, somewhere along the way. I'd have met up with
all my buddies today. \o/ All seem so stressed out, though! I love all of you
so much. Don't let anything get you down too long! Get back up and fight, fight, fight! ♥
P.S. God damn, my mood theme is making me want to blurt out a really overused, perverted internet meme.
