Ron and I went to a Christmas party last night hosted by one of his Philipino friends. They are a fun crew. They all love shopping - and shoes (they all, of course, blame Imelda). I like seeing Ron with them because he always has a good time and they are so gossipy in Tagalog. I mostly talked with Juan (from Columbia) and Chris (Thai guy from Florida). As Ron said as we left, 'all the white guys are so boring.'
Very true about the shopping part. As for shoes... I don't like to stray too far from the five pairs I have. The females in the family beg to differ; two entire shelves are dedicated to those straps of leather they wear around their feet that they haven't touched in HOW many years? Precisely.
Nice to note that filipino parties have a tendency to be entertaining. Then again, my family's parties only get good when the uncles (and occasional aunts) are drunk and trying to sing/squawk into the karaoke machine.
And the extensive movie-watchin marathons sound exactly like my family's Blockbuster-rivalling home collection.
There's really no point to this entry. Thank you and good night.
