I enjoy bonding with girlfriends... especially those whom I have not seen in a long time. Everytime I log in to my YM, I'm always thrilled to see two of my highschool bestfriends... Ellie, who's currently living in Texas with hubby and their new born son Nash ( he's just 3 months younger than my AJ) and Nancy, the only remaining single gal in our barkada. Even if Nancy just live within the Metro, I don't see her often because of our busy schedules. Gosh, the last time I saw her was at my wedding...Yup you read it right.. 14 months ago. Same goes with Ellie. I'm glad she came to my wedding but before that, I have not seen her for like 8 years. She flew back to the States 2 days before we arrived from our honeymoon so there was really no time to bond when she was here.
But last Tuesday night, armed with web cams (unfortunately Nancy has yet to purchase one.. but promised to have it the next time we see her online) we were waving at each others babies and giving kisses in the air.. its nice seeing Ellie after she gave birth. Time flies so fast.. the last time we saw each other we were just a wife now we are both mothers to our boys. Before, we used to chat about boyfriends, shopping, common friends and usually reminising our high school days. This time, there were lots of laughter, "kamustahan", mommy talk, wife-y talk, ex's (na may mga utang pa!), slimming tips and what to do with Nancy's love life were majority of topics. With occational BRBs because the other one has to go to the CR, feed the baby or the baby woke up, change diaper, and put baby to sleep. We ended the session... talking about reunion.. and mind you, the planned reunion will be in Australia next year... Ouch! that will surely suck up my budget. I've never been to Aussie and I'd surley love to go ...if budget permits.. why not! hahaha! i'm keeping my fingers crossed here :p (Asa pa ako hehe!)
I think it was already around 1am when I went to bed...but I had fun bonding with the girls.. and I don't mind staying up late again to chat with my girls.
Three weeks from now, I'll have another bonding with the girls...this time with my officemates and ex-officemates. Its going to be a SPA Day :)
with Nancy ( my maid of honor)
with Ellie (my matron of honor)
*During our high school, digi cams does not exists ...sorry can't show you our before and after hair styles .. haha! (those spray nets are huge hit.) eek!

Nothing can beat a bunch girlfriends bonding. Ah I miss my beauty days where we just sit around and pamper ourselves with facials and stuff
I miss my bffs as my daughter would say. I don't know if it's a generational thing, but my friends aren't on the internet much. We are still in the telephone stage :) and it gets pretty expensive, so it's rare that we bond.
Charles: I'm sure those pampering days with your friends are filled with laughter and non-stop conversation :)
JMom: You gals should try the internet.. it way cheaper than phones :) sometimes its also nice to hear their familiar voice.
You're so lucky shen! Me, I have no clue my highshool barkadas whereabouts :( actually,planning to post their photos,prang nanawagan ba,pero diyahe ata baka lalo hindi sila magpakita lol but been thinking & missing them ofcourse
CheH: I know! I'm glad we're still in touch. Though we also lost touch with some members of our barkada.
I hope one day you'd find your highschool barkada :) reunion will surely be a blast!
