Service for the whole day


Phew! Today was kinda busy. Busy but I was able to spend time with my buddies! There was a nice seminar in church called "Women in the eye of the storm", and I was part of the food committee. Hehehe. In the morning we were asked to prepare steamed and baked siopao. I served it with a friend of mine who happened to be younger than me but we were in the same year. He distributed the siopao while I distributed tissue...Hehe. After that me, Blue* and Eiji-sempai just talked. Music, sports, all sorts of stuff. Then at around 11-something we were asked to help prepare for lunch. Lunch was really busy. We had to prepare loads of stuff, like the chicken and packages and stuff. We counted the number of "packages" and all, and it was good. Then we were asked to prepare the spoons and forks. We were to wrap a spoon and fork in a piece of tissue paper...Hehe, we all couldnt do it properly, so we said stuff like "Oh whatever, this aint my thing!" Hehehe. Then another friend came--Blue's friend in particular. Hehe, it was Red*! He came in and I said, "Reddy! Come and help us!" He came over and helped. Unfortunately, he didnt know how to do it either. Haha, oh well! Anyway, we continued doing it, and while we were at it, we played some music. Japanese, to be exact...Music from Prince of Tennis. Anyway, we all talked about each other--like how would Red and Blue look like as girls? Hehe, now that got us thinking. When preparations were done, Blue had to go coz he had soccer practice. So Red, Eiji-sempai and I were left. When we got back to the lobby (where the preparations were held), everyone was wearing these pieces of cartolina rolled up and stapled to form those chef-hats... Hehe, we didnt dare to put one on. Anyway, we all got two plates of food, and we held them in a waiter-like manner. When we entered the main room, everyone clapped! Hehe, it was really fun. It was so busy... I was like, "we need two more there!" and sempai was like "9 more over there!" We really felt like waiters and waitresses. When all the women had been served, it was our turn. Boy were we happy! We enjoyed eating lunch...I had lunch with sempai and two older guys... This time Yellow* and Brown*. Yellow is the one I have a lil crush on...Hehe. Just a lil, not big. Anyway, we had lunch together, then after that sempai treated us to some Pepsi. I had 5 glasses of em in total...Phew. After lunch sempai and I hung out in the bakeshop, and we tried to finish a project called "50-essays project". And obviously, it's about making 50 essays. I was only able to make 2, and she made 2 as well. Haha, I felt like I was drunk because of the Pepsi. Anyway, a friend from church also treated us to some moist cake. It was really good...Yum yum! Thanks, uncle! (we call him uncle)... After a while, we decided to quit the 50-essays thing coz we were too uninterested to do it. We went back inside church, and there sempai took care of a lil baby. The baby was so cute, and it even coughed and the saliva went to sempai's face! Hahahahahaha... Sempai hit me for that. All our other friends were gone, and sempai and I were left. We just talked about the baby, and some other stuff. It was still pretty fun, too. Night was nearing, and then we were assigned our final food-assignment. It was to put some tissue on the trays of the pork buns. It was kinda tiring coz we had to count them... Anyway, after that, we served the pork buns and then sempai and I went back to the lobby and for some reason we spoke in the English/British accent. I dunno why, it was fun. Hehe. Well we hung out at the office, and we just started talking. Then another good friend came in--It was White*!I always thought he and I had the same age, but he was actually 17! big shocker. Anyway the three of us chatted happily inside the office...It was lively, and we were laughing from time to time. We talked about our dreams, our childhood, and our sports. We all played tennis, and we agreed to play together during the sem-break if possible. When the seminar finally reached its end, our final task was given--collect all the ballpens we had lent the women. That was pretty easy. I stood next to White, who was collecting all the ballpens. We were still talking, too.
Everything was good...When the whole thing was finally over, White and I tried to buy bracelet, but when we went inside to look for our moms, we couldnt find them...Anyway, he and I split up for a while, but my brother found me and told me that it was time to go. I bid sempai good bye, and I asked her to say good-bye to White for me. I got in the car, and then sempai met up with White. She told him where I was, and in the end we got to wave good-bye to each other. Hehe, then I spent the trip home sleeping...I was really worn out and my head hurt... And that's that! God bless the women who joined and was enlightened.

notes:
  • The names with asterisks are obviously made up.
  • I left out a few stuff--hehe, it was real tiring, and so I decided to skip some stuff. Like how sempai and I tried to find a room where we can listen to music by ourselves...But we ended up helping accidentally. Hehe!
  • I also saw some of my teachers there! It was really something. I hope they got enlightened...
  • Thanks and once again, God bless! =D
