High school again

I am still cramming for my daughter's 7th and 2nd birthday party celebration. Lucky me I have friends to help me out in these stressful times.

Earlier today, I was with my high school friend who took time out to scout Tutuban Mall for some party favors, prizes, lootbags and giveaways. Whenever I go to Divisoria, I am always amazed at how cheap things can get especially when you get them wholesale. Just last week, I was surfing the internet to get some idea on what kind of souvenirs, game prizes and how much it would cost me. I was already tempted to negotiate with a party planner so I can do away with the headache stuff of thinking what and where to buy cheap and yet of quality kiddie toys.

There were so many things to choose from but because of the constraint budget and time, I thought of buying on a one-stop deal. My friend and I finally saw a one-stop store named "Toys 4 U" right across Tutuban Mall just right in front of what they call Cluster Mall. I got prizes for as low as P8 per item for wholesale.

After we've bought everything, I felt satisfied with what I was holding because I knew I already got a good deal. My friend shared the same sentiment when I said I was cramming for the party for she too always had to cram on things like that. I then remember my high school days when it was only half an hour away before our "Noli Me Tangere" exam. I guess that was the biggest cramming of my high school life because I was browsing the whole book hence the whole story. Up to now I can't believe that I even got a high grade on that exam. It worked for me then and I guess cramming would always be an inherent part of me. Some things just never change like my friendship with my high school friends who through the years have become solid. We have witnessed almost everyone's lives, shared those girl-to-woman secrets and have bonded with our children. Whenever they're around me, I always feel like a high school girl...even today. I felt like a high school girl who literally didn't feel the heat of the sun or the tiredness from walking when I see my crush. I remember the Alay Lakad sa Luneta and the lunch at SM Centerpoint Fastfood. The walk from UST to Luneta then back to UST was really tiring but I enjoyed it because I was with him. Eventhough he wasn't that nice I was blinded by my secret admiration for him. Now, I couldn't be happier. I just really feel again a high school girl filled with energy and radiant smile just seeing him walk across the street. Just being with him on those stolen moments makes my day complete. I guess there's nothing like a high school day...
