JAMIE

ALAM N'YO ba kung anong season ang l-in-o-look forward ko kada year?

Come on, take a guess! What? Wala kayong maisip na sagot? O baka tinatamad kayong mag-isip? Ang boring n'yo namang kausap. Hindi man kayo nag-e-effort!

Sirit na ba?

Ding-dong! The answer is summer season!

Sino ba naman ang may ayaw sa summer? We don't have classes. Ang sarap sa feeling kapag hindi mo kailangang mag-set ng alarm at magising nang maaga. We can go to the beaches. Sino bang gustong magkulong sa bahay? We can flaunt our well toned bodies! Kung meron kang maipagmamalaki, bakit 'di mo ipagyayabang, 'di ba?

But summer was still a couple of months away. We're in the third quarter of the year. Matagal-tagal pa ang hihintayin ko. Gusto ko nang mapunta ulit sa beach! Inaamag na yata 'yong two-piece ko sa baul. Nakukulangan na rin ako sa Vitamin Sea.

Mabuti na lang, meron kaming one week na school break sa Clark High. Thank the admins for giving us time to breathe! The opportunity's so perfect for a trip to the beach. Wala kaming academic requirements na aalalahanin. Mae-enjoy namin ang ilang araw na pahinga!

So what did I do? Sinuggest ko sa friends ko sa QED Club na baka pwede kaming mag-outing. Alangan namang palalampasin namin ang pagkakataong 'to, 'di ba? That's gonna be a complete waste of our break.

This is the story that I wanna share with our fans.

My Loki dear was against the idea. Mas gugustuhin pa raw niyang magkulong sa apartment at magbasa ng libro instead na lumabas at magpainit nang ilang oras sa ilalim ng araw. I admire his ideas most of the time, but that sounded so boring. Magkukulong sa bahay? For one week? Really? Who on earth would think that's an awesome idea? Only Loki.

Thankfully, I have Lorelei and Alistair with me. Akala ko nga, tatayo silang kontrabida sa suggestion ko. I imagined either of them telling me, "But we still have some schoolwork to do. We're so boring. Blah, blah, blah." I wasn't sure kung ano ang nakain ng dalawa, pero walang sawa akong magte-thank you sa kanila.

I thought Lorelei would be against my brilliant suggestion. Ayaw ko siyang i-judge, pero she doesn't seem to enjoy fun stuff. Okay, jinudge ko na siya. I sometimes think na masyado siyang serious sa buhay. Imagine my surprise nang um-agree siya sa idea ko. She even said it's a good one!

Game na game naman itong si Alistair sa awesome suggestion ko. He also believed na we deserve a break from everything that happened so far. Ilang cases na ba ang sunod-sunod naming na-solve? Nevermind! I lost count already. Kailangan daw naming mag-unwind. Kailangan naming mag-chill. And I have no objection to that!

It's three against one, so majority wins!

Outvoted, my poor Loki dear had no choice but to come with us. Kinuntsaba ko pa nga si Lorelei na i-make sure na hindi siya tatakas sa araw ng outing namin. I know him. Scratch that! We know him. Ita-try niyang makahanap ng palusot para magpaiwan.
