finally, i have gotten myself to post something longer than two sentences. a lot of things happened this week...i'll post them some other time when i don't have to read anything for mr. escaler's class.
anyway, i just received an email about my coordinator's surprise party this saturday. i belong to a youth group in church, in case you didn't know, in which we have two coordinators, kuya myc and kuya emil, who look over all our activities and have become friends of ours as well. a few weeks ago, myc emailed us about his plan to throw a surprise party for kuya emil together with his girlfriend. together with his plan was a P150 contribution from each of us as well as time in order for us to help them prepare. last sunday, everyone forgot to pay that amount and he seemed cool about it and said that we could pay them on the day itself. he went on by saying that we had to be in church at 10 in the morning to help prepare and cook.
ok...first of all, that day is a saturday and it's really difficult for us to wake up that early for nothing or something not as important as say, group work for school. so he says that alright, just meet up and be at his house by 4. when i asked how we would get there re responds, "e di ikaw, dalhin mo vitara mo o yung van, magdrive ka." ok. thanks for assuming that i would be shouldering transportation for the whole group. but you know, that was fine. after all i was the only one who could provide transpo who lived in the vicinity.
this morning, he textes everyone that ate Magic, kuya emil's girlfriend, can't handle all the cooking and need us to be there earlier or else he will "CANCEL THE PARTY". oooooh, scary. wow, demanding ka rin, noh? e paano kung may mas importante kaming gagawin, ie. school work...ring any bells? but, that was ok. i mean, i understand how he wants this to work and he's probably very frustrated since things aren't going as planned. so i go, "ok, but i don't think i can go before lunch since we have group work...baka mga 2 na siguro. so he goes, "ok, i'm assigning you to gather all the CYFers and meet up beforehand. i'll ask magic about it and i'll text you later."
later, he texts that he'll just send me an email regarding all the preparations and such and such. so i'm like, "ok Ü (smiley face, take note)". this evening, i open my email to see his ugly email about everything:
cookie,
here are some pointers. i am assigning you to have the cyf ready or assembled before you go to ate magic's house.
next is jepoy will tell you guys where to put the food or whatever. jepoy will be helping me in the physical arrangements.
please make sure you are available at 2pm not 2:30 or 3:00pm (notice that i am very strict in time right now, unlike before)
also, please make sure that all cyf'ers who will be joining the party will be at your preferred meeting place before you get there!
plus make sure that you guys have your financial contribution
tiarra will be helping ate magic in the morning to cook. she is the only one who will be helping her.
aack! what the?!!??! thanks a lot!
