On new relationships

It's been ages since I last posted anything on my blog. New company, new friends and a helluva of great experience (Yo, Jakarta!). The past couple of months were really busy. While going through everything, I was flighty, anxious and snappish. I needed an avenue to unload all my angst without being judged and subjected to rumors. This blog has been my home for how many years now and I know that my home will gladly welcome my dreary soul back. chos!

Lately, I've been hanging out with a lot of debate friends. Admittedly, I can be an exclusivist in terms of dealing with people. I value relationships so much to the point that I only hang out with the same friends since waaaay back. I realized that the world is so big to limit myself. Majority of my friends are no longer here and some who are left behind have questionable place in my hierarchy of relationships, but I digress.

Anyway, I find contentment and happiness when I'm around these people...

Gremlin's house party

Yes, they are the same people who, once upon a time, were involved in verbal tussle against each other. The foundation of the friendship is our passion in the craft that we love best-- DEBATE. They are some of the brightest minds in the Philippine (and Asian) debate community. It's nice to know though that we- or at least some of us- can hang out without mentioning debate. :D We watch movies, do karaoke, dine out, go on house parties, talk about life and do all sorts of landichi. For those reasons and for so much more, the only biological rose among the thorns is extremely thankful.
