Bulaga! Surprising Eloi at her house.
My friend Eloi and her family are leaving for the States tomorrow and will be staying there for good so my friends and I threw in a surprise despedida dinner for her last Friday. I’m not quite sure whose idea was it originally. Way, Tiff and I just found ourselves one night calling and texting people up to inform them of our impromptu get-together. Oh it was nothing big.. we just spent the evening hanging out in a cozy restaurant, eating pizza, taking pictures, sharing stories, laughing at each others’ craziness and reminiscing about our past. We had a great time! I wish we’d do things like this often not only when someone’s going away.
To Eloi: Good luck! I wish you and your family well! Be good, ok? Don’t forget to drink lots of milk! Haha! (I found out that her relatives were also telling her that milk in the States tastes good. I found it funny cause it’s the same thing our relatives had told us before we went there. What’s with the milk? But yeah, it really tastes good. Just a side story. Hehe.

Migration part 2
In other news, my migration from Windows to Linux is going pretty well. I already found a calendar program to replace my Rainlendar—Google Calendar. It integrates nicely to my Evolution (a software similar to MS Outlook) and also syncs to my Palm. It also emails me notices for upcoming events. I like it because I like integration. Adobe Photoshop CS though, is still irreplaceable. While there’s Gimp Image Editor, I find it lacking of the essential tools that I use in PS. But it’s ok—I’ll just borrow my brother’s computer every time I need to edit some photos.
Which was what I did with Eloi’s despedida pictures that you can view under the cut.
How’s that for an integrated entry.
