Christmas party with bloggers

23 Replies

I made it to the first Christmas party for bloggers yesterday. I wasn’t supposed to attend because I don’t have a cowboy costume. The group suggested for cowboy attire complete with boots and hat. I thought finding special occasion dresses is a lot easier than looking for cowboy outfit. It turned out that one can buy the whole cowboy get up from ukay-ukay or thrift stores. Some of the attendees got their killer boots and branded hats from the thrift shop.

I didn’t bother to look for boots or hats though. Peh provided my hat and I came with my usual attire – flat shoes, jeans and checkered polo which I borrowed from my husband.

Although there were a handful of mommy bloggers who made it to the event, the occasion turned out to be a big success. It was fun and no one left the venue without carrying a loot bag or two and prizes from sponsors. I think another event is in the offing according to Joy who is the party organizer and host.

I hope more mommies will get invited next time. 🙂

DMMHS High school batch ’87

Leave a reply

I notice the increasing number of  high school batchmates joining our Facebook group. I have seen a few classmates in third year, but I don’t have the guts to add them to my friends list. I’m a bit shy to connect with them maybe I’ll wait for them to initiate the invitation.

I couldn’t help but wonder why the good looking girls in my batch maintain their youthful look. Although they gain pounds they still look the same pretty girls in their elegant prom dresses 23 years ago. I will be more than happy to see them in person especially those who belong in my class. I think they are cooking up an event this December. I have to check that out.

This is how I look now  and I’m not happy about it. Proof that I was mistaken for being pregnant was the comment made by a lady market vendor. I was buying hotdogs from her stall when the lady wearing a smile on her face asked me if I was pregnant. ‘Oh, no, I’m not,’ I told her. ‘I thought you were pregnant because you gain weight,’ she said. ‘Ah, yes I’ve added pounds because I’m sitting in front of the computer most of the time..’ ‘Oh, I see.’

The truth hurts. But what can I do? Even if I’m tempted to take slimming pills, I’m still unsure if I will be getting the safest diet pill. There are so many available diet pills in the market, it’s just difficult to decide which one is effective.
