Nothing unusual happened this weekend. Had a Reunion BBQ for my old youth group Kabataan [formerly Sino Ako?] in Union City. The turnout was a lot smaller than I was hoping for. Originally on Friendster a lot of people expressed interest but then as we all know most of that is just talk anyway. The only ones who came out were the ones that I expected [albeit there were a few surprise appearances.]
Two of the guys who showed up were ones I met while they were freshmen in high school. They strolled up to the BBQ yesterday and I almost didn't recognize them. Turns out they're both at SJ State and doing well in their studies. But it's funny because I'll always think of them as the 15 year old screwballs that they once were and not people that can now legally buy drinks. "Don't worry, Keem," one of them said to me, "We still look up to all you guys!" That made me feel good because then all the hard work we put into the youth group wasn't all for nothing.
Then I rolled with my old friend Lex out to downtown Los Gatos, which is suprisingly alive on Saturdays. It was pretty cool because I've never been out that way before. We were trying to catch up to a bachelorette party, which we ended up losing at the Blue Tattoo in San Jose. So Lex and I just rolled back to Alameda and got some Mexican food at La Pinata.
Now I'm at work and bored and pissed because the Niners freakin' blew another ballgame today.
