Today's Music: Chocolate by The 1975

This is one of the those songs that I don't need to understand the meaning. I just want to listen over and over again until the lyrics and melody echo in my head. This is a good to song to beat the manic Monday.
 
Hey, now, call it a split, because you know that you will
Oh, you bite your friends like chocolate
You said, we go where nobody knows
We got guns hidden under our petticoats
Oh, we're never gonna quit it
No, we're never gonna quit it, no

Run run away from the boys in blue
Oh, my car smells like chocolate
Hey, now, think about what to do
I think about what to say
Think about how to think
Pause it, play it, pause it, play it, pause it

We go where nobody knows
With guns hidden under our petticoats
Oh, we're never gonna quit it
No, we're never gonna quit it, no

Yeah, we're dressed in black from head to toe
We've got guns hidden under our petticoats
Oh, we're never gonna quit it
No, we're never gonna quit it, no

Now you're never gonna quit it
Now you're never gonna quit it
Now you're never gonna quit it
If you don't stop smoking it, that's what she said

She said, we're dressed in black
Head to toe
We've got guns hidden under our petticoats
And we're never gonna quit it
No, we're never gonna quit it, no

Hey, now, we're building up speed as we're approaching a hill
(Approaching a hill, approaching a hill, approaching a...)
Oh, my hair smells like chocolate
Hey now, you say you're gonna quit it but you're never gonna quit it
Go get it, go get it, go get it, go get it, go!
Play cool

Oh, you said, we'll go where nobody knows
With guns hidden under our petticoats
Oh, we're never gonna quit it
No, we're never gonna quit it, no

Yeah, we're dressed in black from head to toe
We got guns hidden under our petticoats
Oh, we're never gonna quit it
No, we're never gonna quit it, no

Well I think we better go
Seriously better go
Said the feds are here you know
Seriously better go
Well I think we better go
Said the feds are here you know
Said Rebecca better know
Seriously better go

We'll go where nobody knows
With guns hidden under our petticoats
Oh, we're never gonna quit it
No, we're never gonna quit it, no
Yeah, we're dressed in black from head to toe
We got guns hidden under our petticoats
Oh, we're never gonna quit it
No, we're never gonna quit it, no
No, no, no

Well I think we better go
Seriously better go
Said the feds are here you know
Seriously better go
Well I think we better go
Said the feds are here you know
Said Rebecca better know
Seriously better go

Recent Life Venture: Sleepover with College Friends



“Nothing is comparable to a faithful friend, and no weight of silver or gold is worth more than the goodness of his fidelity.” -Sirach 6:15
January 10, 2013

Some people say that true friends are found during high school years. I was just so fortunate that I found many true friends also in college.  We had each other’s back as we aspired the coveted professional title. Though we didn’t graduate with same course, together, we enjoyed and hurdled college years. 

We baptized our group as THE SERFENTSY. We got that name from an incident I don’t want to share (I might be killed. LOL). Each letter represented our nicknames. Some may find it very “baduy” to have a group name but we are “baduy”. Laban ka? 

During college days, we spent many moments together. If we were not studying, you would see us talking and laughing, actually talking and laughing very loudly. That was our favourite recreation. We made laugh at each other. We were fond to ridicule ourselves and unfortunately, if someone was bad to us, you might be our topic.  The walls and kiosks at our university witnessed how fun people we were. 

Since we started to pursue our careers, we couldn’t afford to spend the same amount of time just like those times. To gather us all, we need to schedule our gathering. Last Friday night, I was so happy to be reunited with my four lovely fents (we refer each member as fent). Although we were just 5 out of 12, we made the best out of the time.

Just like the old times, we chatted like we didn’t have commitments after that night. We updated ourselves with our recent endeavors. Our work, family, future plans and of course lovelife were our topics. To make our conversation a little different that night, I encouraged everyone to say one negative trait, attitude or something bad to each one present that night and to admit what was, from our own mouth, our individual one bad trait/downfall.  We were hesitant at first because our eight years of friendship might end that night. Eventually, we plunged into the challenge because we knew we were matured adults now (assuming to be adults lang =D).

While devouring liempo, lechon manok, yummy imported chips and cookies, we had a good catching up. Yes! No alcoholic beverage included. Our conversation was very productive and juicy that night. Things were clarified. One fent cried (alam na). Advices were given and taken. And our friendship never ended that night (or Am I the only one assuming it? hahaha) 

P.S.

Enjoy viewing the photos for those who were absent that night. =P
