I know it's a bit too late. The Farewell party happened two weeks ago but I must have a written record of it.
So, here's what happened on the 24th of March:
It was already decided that everyone would meet at IS campus at 8:00 am. Unfortunately, in the Philippines, there's a thing we call the Pilipino time where people would always come an hour later than the announced time. So, it was not surprising that when I arrived at exactly 8:00, only Camille and Sheer Magne were there.
So we talked a bit. One by one, more people came. Then Sir Mhel arrived at the scene and called for an emergency meeting. We still didn't have anything to eat for later so, he assigned people to buy some groceries and we'll just cook them at the resort.
I went in Kim's car. We'd just drop Lester, Sheer Magne and Paolo at Gaisano and the rest would go directly at the resort.
Morabora. It has a pool as big as our lawn and two rooms, each the same size of our living room and dining room put together. There's a convention hall where we can have our meals and a bar decorated with empty wine bottles. There's a little cottage on the rear where the view is spectacular. It was the best resort I've ever been in (that's not saying much though).
Unfortunately, while we were chatting (Kim, Chelsea and I), we heard a familiar laughter from the next door resort (Quality), the evil laugh of Nicolo which can only mean...Br. Eusebius Adrian is on the other side. The history between the battle of Eusebius and Hille (our precious section) is a long story (actually all the other sections hated them). Just imagine a typical scenario of a school having a first section. Anyway, the fact that they're near made me feel down. I didn't want a fight that day.
Then, Shara (from Eusebius...Charles' girlfriend...ally) came inside. She said that at 6:00 pm, all the sections would come together for a grad ball (all sections had a farewell party at the same day and the resorts were practically neighbors, yet our allies were a bit far from us). When everybody else came, I told everyone about it. I don't have to tell you what their answers were.
So, when things were settled, everyone had fun. Lester was cooking (actually grilling meat...yum) while Abby and company were making rice. All the rest...SWIMMING!
Lunch was superb. We didn't have much money so all we bought were
paper plates and
disposable cups. But nobody minded
eating with their hands. Our drinks were
Infinit (
imagine strawberry/orange-flavored Cali with alchohol) with credits to
Melissa who brought
two boxes of them. What did you expect from
Hille, the
pinakapasaway (
most rebellious) section? I'm not kidding, our section had the
most number of violation reports received.
Then we continued swimming. Jay and I were trying desperately to learn how to float. Lester, Charles and John competed for the best pose-dive. Some took pictures. Sheer Magne was the sexiest, wearing spaghetti-strapped blouse and shorts but she did not swim though. Diane was just texting (she's not allowed to swim).
Just before sunset, we Ferry, Nelps, Mabby, and I went to the sea. It was low tide so a patch of sand appeared somewhere in the middle of the sea. We went there and played sandball (think of snowballs with sand). We covered Nelps with sand. I wrote our section's name on sand. Miki, Abby and Billy also came and collected a lot of starfishes and used them to write there names.
Sigh. It was great. Everything was great. But it wasn't anything compared to what happened at night.
