A Wedding Invite and Another Godchild

At my twenty-something age, I realized I already have a lot of godchildren.

My cousin informed me last week that I'd be one of the godparents of her son. When it comes to my cousins, I wouldn't mind if they'd not ask me first if I want to become a godparent or not since we have a great relationship with each other. But if it's a friend or just an acquaintance, I'd think twice.

The baptismal happened last Saturday morning. It was fun! Our busiest relative, who rarely visits because of his job being a film director, joined us, together with his boyfriend. They both work in the creatives that's why I like talking to them. We talked about literature and films the whole day and some bardagulans with our other relatives too.

It was funny though because there's 'biko' in the menu and my aunt forbid my cousin to eat it because she just had her baby last week. My aunt told us that 'biko' is not good for those who recently had given birth. Weird, I said. Are you familiar with this kind of belief?

Thanks, sponsors!

The other day, one of my college BFFs informed me and my other friend that she wants us to host her wedding! OMG! For real! At first, she wants us to sing, then she changed her mind, she wanted us to facilitate the games for the party, then now she wants us to host.

I asked her if she was serious because, for me, that's way toooo funny! I mean, I do host events in school but this one's a wedding! We might spill something so we told her to think about it one more time before finalizing it.

Her wedding date falls on a Monday but that won't stop us. She thought I might not be able to attend her wedding for I have a lot on my plate but I reassured her that I will make time. She's important to me, I'm willing to take a leave and if my leave won't suffice, it's easy for me to be absent for a day or two.

I'm actually excited about her wedding because finally, she's with her 'the one'. She used to rant all day, for years, about having issues with her ex-boyfriend and we tend to scold her a lot. I'm really glad that she's happy now with her fiance.

That's it for today! I participated in the Onboarding Webinar last night, thank goodness it's done! I was actually procrastinating because my cousins and I were having the after-party of my nephew's christening. Good thing, I was able to make a presentation that same day. Whew!

It's Monday again, ugh. I should fix my sleeping schedule. Lol. Ciao!
