The Lost Entry

One cloudy, overcast day, an inquisitive boy was walking along the beach, playing with his little red toy boat. He was having so much fun playing that he didn't notice the floating bottle in the water near him.

Suddenly, the bottle emitted a bright white glow that half-blinded the boy. When he finally regained his senses, his red toy boat was gone and he was clutching the bottle in his hands. He looked inside the moss-covered bottle and, to his astonishment, he saw some rolls of parchment. Of course, he didn't know what parchment was, but being the inquisitive boy that he is, he opened the bottle to find out what the heck those things that look like paper were. After opening the bottle, he unrolled the parchment and saw to his surprise that they were pages of an entry of a journal, made by someone named "Jensen".

June 24, 2005, FRIDAY.

Dear journal,

Today was the day of the first visit of any of my friends to my house. If you were living, you'd know that I live in a far away place, far from civilization, and the noise of city life.

Actually, if you were living, you'd also know that I'm exagerrating. I live in the 'burbs of an industrial city called Valenzuela.

Well anyway, this is the first time any of my friends came to visit.

My college buds, Riva and Chris, were the lucky winners. How lucky? I don't know. They told me that they felt sleepy in my house. Sigh. You can't be winning all the time.

In my case, I can't be winning ANYtime.

But I think we had some fun.. Considering they found my home "sleepy."

We spent the morning on my PC, looking at pictures and talking to Waway on the phone. Oh the miracles of 24/7 call and text unlimited. We played on my GBA emulator for a while, playing games like Spongebob Squarepants, Dora the Explorer, and Power Rangers Wild Force. We had a barrel of laughs over those games.. Ahh the innocence of childhood.

Then Riva showed me this addictingly fun site called iSketch. And that was the start of what can only be called as "addiction mode" for me.

We also looked at pics from my high school days, and from Riva's high school days. Those were the days indeed. I miss my high school friends.

Then we ate carbonara and chicken for lunch. And talked. And talked. And talked.

After our talk, and talk, and talk, we decided to watch something on the TV. We ended up watching a VCD of "God of Gamblers," a comedy about casino players who had magic powers :D Riva ended up actually sleeping. Haha.. I guess the house always wins in the end.. Pun intended.

We went back to the LRT station at around 3:45 pm. THus ended the baptism of my house.

Truly (also madly and deeply) yours,
Jensen xoxoxoxo
