This picture pretty much sums up the whole night. After a night of studying for one of those dreaded Anatomy practical exams and actually flunking it anyway (I was emotionally disturbed that night because my cousin and my tita were leaving for the States the next day), we wrapped up our lab gowns, changed clothes and headed to UP Diliman. Right, Thomasians on a UP trip--thanks to Pat and Grace. They toured us around their alma mater and for a moment, I breathed in fresh air...away from the smoky portals of my dear UST (Viva Espana!). The highlight of the trip, however, was my first taste of isaw (translation: chicken intestines). Finally, after 21 years of existence. It wasn't as gorry as I expected it to be. I actually thought it'd be good to eat it with rice. I was surprised at first when I heard people calling out their orders. They could eat at least 5 sticks! It didn't cost much though and according to the former UPuans (how do you call them anyway? Iskolars?)Pat and Grace, that's the way to eat it. I loved the vinegar sauce...I even drank some of it.

After the hearty appetizer, touring 'round the University and meeting my friends' friends, we went to Gayuma for dinner. It was a nice place. Great concept for a resto. I love their "mat place", where we ate in an Indian sitting position. (What the heck am I talking about?) We passed around our plates and basically ate each other's food. And of course, an hour wouldn't be complete without somebody walking up the resto and greeting Grace! Sure that was her territory.

After the main dish, we got slices of cake and pigged out! Sugar rush got into us so quickly and before we knew it, we were doing some scandalous videos/pictures/whatnots in the place. Sabog!

We decided to leave as Llew starts dozzing off and we didn't want to leave him with the dishes. Hehe!

What a night.
