Neferti, My Love!

Gusto ko lang i-address ang true confessions ng The Diva tungkol sa aming pag-attend sa porn launch sa Arneyow.

Nauna akong dumating kesa sa kanya. Wala akong kakilala sa lugar na iyon, at bakit sila sa isang maliit na classroom nagho-hold ng mga events? Pero sabi sa invite iyon ay "faculty lounge" daw so sige pasok na rin at makinig. Unang-una kong napansin ay very deeply tanned si Neferti. Buff pa rin. Naka-sleeveless pa rin. May butterfly necklace pa rin. Kaya lang tulad nga ng napansin na kanina, may beginnings of grey hair na siya. Pero kebs na noh. Sa kasamaang palad ay hindi ako nakapagwithdraw sa ATM dahil down ang server ng lecheng bangko. So kulang talaga ang pambili ko ng libro. Until The Diva arrived and he got me the book.

Pagkatapos nung mamang hindi ko kilala, yung author na ang nagsalita. Nilinaw niya yung mga issue sa libro. Ito ba ay sinulat with the Pinoy audience in mind o para lang sa mga puting intellectual sa States and beyond? Sabi ni Neferti most of the pieces were written here (sa Pinas) kapag umuuwi sila at least once a year. Pero bakit ganun, kung nandito siya every year, ni minsan ay hindi ko siya nakita.

Correction nga rin pala: Sabi ni The Diva, we were her student FIVE years ago. Pero baka nga mas accurate yung six years, but he really said five.

Nung moment na nagpapapirma na kami, she doesn't really remember us. Kung si Diva nga na naka--uno, ako pa kaya eh 1.25 lang ako? And I didn't really want to bring up the only thing that would refresh her memory: that I was the brazen one who was so "uncool" by being absent on report day. Wah!

Ang ending lang nun, nakikain kami and spent an eternity playing stay or go. We kept on nudging The Diva to go ahead and approach her and talk. Sabi ko nga sa kanya, all it took to get him out here and make an appearance was because Neferti is here. Kung alam lang natin ito, sana sinabi natin noon pa that Neferti eats dinner at Mang Jimmy's every Friday. Hehehe.

About the apartment: yep, homey siya. But it's quite a long walk at feeling ko pa nung umpisa nawawala na ang The Diva at di matagpuan ang sariling bahay. I like their furniture. Saka nga pala, he bequeathed me his minimal porn collection na na-fast forward ko lang kasi I realized the videos were kinda not outstanding. But do you expect from amateurs starring in Sikreto ng makati right? Ang masasabi ko lang, it's never a good idea to have yourself filmed while your mouth's full.

Sa Boracay bomb: awww. I want to do something special (uuy) sa birthday ko. Got to mark the day I turn an adult. Feh.

Kay GMA: I don't think natutulog pa siya.

Yun lang.
