The gang at Roscoes...
Friends of mine and I frequent Roscoes..we like that place...however bitchy that place can be. Sure, sure...there are some boys there who are worth looking at...And I have yet to show you the shower contest pictures...I was there.
I know....It's Saturday night and I'm at home writing this blog. My buds are all there now. Usually, on Sat night it's Roscoes followed by Charlies...if not..Nookies...I love their Broccoli Cheddar soup....or somethin...LOL Of course, you have to have cottage fries and chicken quesadillas.
I'm home because my boy got too lazy to come out. We just saw War! now on it's 4th year earlier and it was hilarious. It was so exciting. They did an improv. of my day ang sang it with choreo and everything. They're so good.
Finally got some pictures from christmas and NY...I got a nice gift for christmas...I have yet to show it to my hubby.

Volley Follies
Every year the WCAA volleyball league hosts a show called Volley Follies at The Baton. Basically, it's a show put together by some of the players, where they all get in drag and perform the night away. ONE NIGHT ONLY of course. This year, I'm excited. It'll be even better. The money the queens collect btw are for charity.
I can already hear some Dreamgirls music.....

Listening to music...
Rice and fish...the Asian diet. Especially after these coming holidays.
I'm not going home for Christmas and NY and this will be the first. I feel a bit sad about it but at the same time I feel a bit excited. I've always been a loner growing up and independent. When I am alone I feel relaxed and calm. I can think about myself and I don't have to tend to anyone's needs. I don't have to pretend to do something or like something. It's just me. Sometimes, as fun as being in a huge family is which I greatly appreiate, I am thankful for my alone time. But I'm not really going to be alone this Christmas and NY. I'm going to Minneapolis to see someone...nuff said.What do you plan to do for the holidays?
I'm currently listening to classic Filipino songs. Of course, they're all about love, pain, hope, and happiness. Back then the lyrics used to be so powerful and meaningful. Unlike today, music are full of emotions. I miss the old days.
"SOSA" had pictures of kids in his blogs. I think they're his. I envy him. I've always wanted to have kids. One boy would be enough. But being the way I am and at this stage of my life it's more comlpicated. I envy my bestfriend who has two kids now at 27. He has everything. I know someday I will have mine....the right time will come. I hope it's before when I turn 33...lol.

why do you hope before you turn 33? I feel self-enforced life scheduling is may only be setting yourself up for disappointment. I say, come what may and que sera sera. Whatever will be, will, Mr. Aray.

I do not think it hurts to plan. Like you said, whatever will be. It's okay if things don't turn out as planned. Life usually never turns out exactly as planned.

weekend's coming
It has been the weekend I have been waiting for. Getting back to work after the Vegas trip was difficult but I managed. So I think about what I plan to do this weekend.
Volleyball is not an option. I don't enjoy playing volleyball as much as I used to. I think it's because of all the unpleasant things that has been happening with the people around me at volleyball. I mean guys who are cocky and mean and think they are superstars. One person, completely inconsiderate and abusive, has got me emotionally exhausted. I used to be very cheery and I usually do not get mad easily but because of him I'm not anymore. I thank him though. Being the Type two I am in the enneagram test I am usually easily persuaded to the point of being a pushover. I ahve a hard time saying "no" to people's requests. That's not the case anymore. I've learned to say no now and talk back to people when necessary. The fierce characteristic in me shows up more often now. I'm more likely to stand up for myself when I have to.
I have been talking to a couple of my friends about how the gay society in Chicago works. Basically, it all comes down to this. Gay Chicagoans gossip and gossip really badly. Rumors spread easily and they stay there to the point that everyone thinks you're something else even though you're not. Or even though they don't know you. "Who cares" you might say. Exactly. Even though you wouldn't care about what narrow minded and not so smart people would say you can't help but still be affected. They hear about you and create an image of you. True or not, people would react to it. As a result, it would definitely make your social life more complicated as it is. I'm over this.

i wonder...
Seasonal Affective Disorder or just pensive? I've been so pensive lately right after my trip. I want to do something else in life other than work, sleep, eat and go "out." Lately life has been pretty routine. Volleyball is becoming a drag the more I realize I'm just surrounding myself with self-absorbed, bitchy, unfriendly queens. Volleyball's not so much fun anymore. I have been thinking fo spending Christmas away from family. For some reason I feel that I'll just be exhausted if I go back home for Christmas. But I do not need time alone. I already have enough of it. I can't wait for this year to end.
