Saturday's my free day. Actually not really free cause I have class but only half day so I got time to go to grocery, market, and sometimes laundry shop, if I really am busy or if I have enough money. But today's different. I'll do what Lei said last time... Enjoy your youth. 

I got my salary yesterday and I also got a plenty of savings these past few months. Hindi ko naman alam saan ko gagastahin 'yon. Maybe I was really fixated on working that I forgot myself. And now is the time to make it up for myself.

Today, I'm choosing me.

After my half day class I went to the laundry shop before I finally went to the mall. First I did my groceries before I bought things for myself.

I bought some makeup, para kahit papaano ay hindi ako pagsasabihan na 'di ko inaalagaan ang sarili ko. I also bought new clothes and shoes that I usually don't do. Ngayon lang kasi trip ko. Halos umabot ng six thousand 'yong nagasta ko. 

Instead of regretting, I really felt fulfilled. 'Yon bang ang pinaghirapan mo ay nabigyang halaga, sana pala noon ko pa ito ginawa.

Tinawagan ko si Lei kasi hindi ko kayang magcommute sa dami ng mga dala ko.

"Lei, asan ka?"

"Nasa dorm."

"Pasundo naman o. Dami ko kasing dala. Libre kita lunch para hindi ka magreklamo." Pangsusuhol ko.

Nakarinig ako ng kalabog "Weh?! Ikaw manglilibre?

Napatawa ako sa reaksyon niya, "Oo nga."

"Wow! Sinapian ka yata, Adie."

I texted her my location at ng makarating siya ay halos pasukan na ng langaw ang nakabuka niyang bibig.

I rolled my eyes, "I know Lei so shut up!"

"Ang dami mong shinopping. Dapat sinama mo ako."

"Alam kong mas madami pa ang magagastos ko pag kasama kita kaya tumahimik ka."

I know she was shocked ako rin naman na shock sa sarili ko. Sabi pa nga niya na proud daw siya sa 'kin at sa wakas nagdadalaga na raw ako.

We ate at a European inspired restaurant. I really enjoyed it kahit alam kong mamahalin, balewala lang 'yon kasi masaya naman ako. Talak ng talak si Lei sa achievement ko sa araw na ito kaya imbes sa bahay umiwi ay sa dorm niya ako napadpad. I tried all my new clothes and shoes. Halos ginawa na naming runway ang kuwarto ni Lei.

Lei took photos of us and immediately posted it on her Instagram. "Going for a night out!" as her caption. Yeah, we decided to go to a bar after a series of fashion shows in her room. Sayang naman kasi 'yong mga damit, kung hindi ko babasbasan ngayon. I wore a sexy maroon lace camisole tank top paired with a fit denim pants while Lei wore a nude low cut spaghetti strap paired with her leather leggings.

Lei invited some friends para daw may kahati kami sa bayad sa VIP area. Ang lakas niyang mang-insulto na kuripot ako, siya rin naman pala. 

Lei let me drive her car to Oqtagon. Medyo malayo iyon sa dorm niya kaya nagpresinta na akong magmaneho. Lei taught me how to drive in case something happen. O 'di ba ang bait talaga ng bruhang 'to. We stopped by a drive thru papunta sa club para may laman 'yong tiyan namin.

When we reached there our friends was already sitting at the table. They are the ones Lei and I met before in a different club. We clicked right away after that night hanggang sa 'di na namin mabilang kung ilang club or bar na ang napuntahan namin.
