Tats is 20!

It seems just a short time ago, that Tats was still wetting his pants regularly and gets overly excited at the sight of candy (wait, he still does that!). Awww…how times have passed. Nowadays, Tats is a true grown-up. He’s mature, responsible, goal-driven, sympathetic (unlike Reuel, who’s sympathetic without the sym), and above all else, he has discarded all his childish inklings and instincts. And, oh yeah, people happen to assume I’m always lying. Go figure.

But, the important thing is that Joratio “Tats” Nuyda has moved away from the “teen” years and into the magical threshold that is the age of 20. 20!!! It brings tears to our eyes as our beloved friend has moved on to the next step in life. Too bad that’s really not gonna make any bit of actual difference. Hehe.

Being the good and society-fearing blokes that we are, drinking away the night was the only plausible way to celebrate this transition into, ahem, adulthood. The usual suspects were naturally present: yours truly, the birthday boy (makes no sense having a birthday bash without the celebrant there, don’t you think?), Rod, Shao (with GF Saki and broad Mario), Jami, France (with GF Kay), Moc, Noel, Reuel (financer), with surprise additions foremost of which was the Supreme Student Council President Adrian Bonifacio himself. Talk about a celebrity guest!

And so we had a great time. Blah blah blah. We all agreed that the most suitable gift for Tats is definitely not any kind of object (because he might eat it…regardless of its nature), but rather, a convincing victory in our next White Team game.

Happy birthday TATS!!!
