Ghost of my past [part two]

I have been in a stable and very committed relationship for more than a year already. Before The Boyfriend, I was also quite monogamous with my relationship with the Jersey girl.

This afternoon, Jersey girl's best friend asked me out to dinner. Seems like she's having relationship problems, thus, her need to seek my advice. Like I'm such a pro! Hell! I can't even resolve my own relationship problems.

But I am digressing.

In the middle of our conversation, she told me she needed my opinion because her recent flame is a bad girl like me. Bad what?

I wasn't able to contain myself and told her how come I'm branded the bad girl when her bestfriend was the one who cheated on me?

I just can't get it!

In one of my recent phone conversations with Ian and Ryan, the bad girl issue also inevitably came up. Like I would never be the one to grow old by myself, that I used to be such a player and I can still be if I choose to...

What's up all these?

I therefore conclude that no matter how hard you try to clean up your act, bad reputations will always persist and can even precede whatever things you do at present.

As for this bad girl label, I think I never was. It was just a case of wrong people, wrong timing and high expectations. A matter of crashing and burning.

And crash and burn, I did.

If that's what being a bad girl is, then call me one.

Asar-talo

Asar-talo is when you're pissed off at someone and the person is not even affected by it. Solution: the art of DEADMA. Besides, if the person is such a pain in the ass, logic would tell you he/she doesn't deserve to be given your time of day. Tama ba, M&M?

Ateneo, at last!

I was with V last Saturday, looking for apartments and condo units when Ateneo friends flooded me with text messages saying that Ateneo won - and is now the new
UAAP champion. Cheers, ADMU! Sa wakas nanalo. One big fight - til the next UAAP.


Of long-time friends and separate lives

During Marc's birthday celeb, only a few of the guys went to the party. I myself didn't make it since I was out of town with The Boyfriend that time.

Ryan said they've been ranting that finally, we are growing up. Or, the better way to say it, we have outgrown our regular parties and hanging out. Is this something good? I know at some point we need to outgrow partying - but these get-togethers help us touch-base with each other.
