Late Thanksgiving / Early Christmas Party



The CAFAs had another get together recently. Tong and Rita are in town and that wasn't going to get by the sentimental CAFAs without a party. The activity was held in Oni's house in Greenmeadows.  The pot luck set up saw an overflowing of fine meriendacena food and drinks. 

Those who came for the occasion are: Fe and Bobby Bareiro, Pearl and Vic Ortega, and Rita and Tong (of course lang). And then the singles were NeoCafas Dero, Alex, Dinky and Oni. (Milu is in Silay and Bili is in NY). Emi said she would come but she got stuck in her own family party. 

The merienda talk ranged from politics to geriatric diseases to life lessons. Surprisingly, there was not much CAFA bashing concerning those who were not in the party - there were so much other better things to discuss (or bash). Alex exposed to the group a stage play project that Oni is working on. That was fodder for "whazzup" questions which put Oni in the hot seat to face the critical CAFAs. Oni tried to 'obfuscate' the situation by explaining the nuances of the project through 'inchoate' means. It wasn't enough smokescreen to elude the bashing. (Emi, your support would have come in handy, heh heh). 

Dero was the sage who gave good advise. He said that at this stage, we should really make it a point to document any good ideas we have and share these with the world. Oni agrees. Because of Senior moments, Oni forgets at times details of the play script and music that he himself created . For instance, Tong's suggested a change in the story timeline (from 3 years to 5 years) which added to Oni's confusion since the suggestion does make sense. Am I making sense?
