stop listening to stupid loves songs with lyrics that hit the heart and start listening to Britney Spears' happy-just-dance-and-go-crazy-dammit songs. LOL. I'm finding myself appreciating Britney Spears more and more these days. Is that strange? Her music is suddenly coming on to me as something awesome. :)

I just came from a mini gathering with my high school classmates earlier this evening (perhaps, morning, since I came home a little before 1am). But yes, it was a bunch of fun. I've always been the quiet, reserved girl in class so I didn't have much to share with the others. (I suppose this basically implies how lame and boring my life really is. HA.) Anyway, it was just such a great break to hang out with the people you've come to be quite familiar with.

A bit on high school life in the Philippines: Students belong in 'sections' wherein a number of students are put together and spend the entire year TOGETHER in the same classroom. The students do not move to and fro from one classroom to another; rather, the teachers come in and out of the classrooms. Hence, high school students (and elementary, of course) form a rather strong bond. It's great for the most part, but it could be quite boring, too. Also, if you haven't spent the rest of your life in that same school, you probably won't have much chance to socialize with others from different sections. (Based from my personal experience, of course.)

So there. Though only eleven of us showed up, we still had a fab time. I may have been really quiet all night, but I honestly had a great time. Most people there were the ones I really loved anyway. :) And I haven't seen most since graduation, five years ago. Everyone looks the same, if not better. Catching up was great, but gossiping was even better. LOL. I must say, though, I'm starting to believe that most high school friends are really for keeps. And very, very few from college.

The downside, I suppose, is that the whole gathering and talking has gotten me into thinking about my personal life. (Oh no, here I go with thinking again. Haha.) I feel like I've been extremely idle over the years. I've graduated, I've gotten a job, I'm financially independent. These are all very WONDERFUL things, of course, but everyone else's lives seems so much more interesting. I really shouldn't compare, but I can't help it. I just figured that my life must really be boring.

I need to start getting OUT THERE for real.

I need to do something better with my life.

I just don't know where to start.
