10:10 PM – 12:00 MN: URCC Bar Tour @ Warehouse 135

The highlight of my day though probably has to be either Brey’s party or Eric’s Birthday. I cannot believe it has already been a year since Brey first cried hello to the world. It was such a wonderful sight to see the tandem of Gelo and Issa at the party. Gelo carrying his kid and attending to the guests while Issa was being attentive to the other details of the party. Issa’s friends were there to help out specifically Kye who facilitated a few games for the kids. The bubble show was fantastic! I wanted to line up and be engulfed by a big human size bubble.

I arrived at Oyster Boy in Metrowalk at exactly 830pm. 5 minutes later, Patrick and Edah arrived. Rely on Patrick to be on time. But not Eric, the birthday boy! Patrick called Eric and asked where he was. Eric said he was on his way. I took the phone and talked to him. He admitted he was still at home.

PJ arrives at 9pm knowing that Eric is going to be late by 30 minutes. PJ jarringly looks like Lance Bass of N Sync and throughout college, I always associated him with Lance. PJ now works for P&G and I couldn’t stop grilling him about his company while waiting for the food.

Spoiling me I guess, Eric said I could start ordering, risking the fact that I might order too much. So the four of us started ordering our dishes. PJ still full from dinner at home ordered his first beer. I didn’t want to eat and run but we really had to be at the URCC XII pre-event by 10pm because CW was going to ref a match. Thank God that at 920pm, Eric finally arrives.

I was so happy to spend time with them. I feel like an adopted child of their Engineering block because they always tag me along to their gatherings. I was so excited to see May, Tin, Mike, Arkay again but we really had to go by 945pm. I think they arrived a little past 10pm and suddenly it was me who was missing all the action. Even if it was brief, I was glad that I was at Eric’s birthday dinner. I miss college.
