A few weeks ago, I made my way back to Manila to attend a very special event – my friend Irish’s wedding. I “Trumpets” became a legit group one random PE class and we’ve been together ever since. Her car and her home became our unofficial transpo<\/i> and venue for get togethers. She was generous as she was sweet – I remember her giving all of us a rose for Valentine’s. \ud83d\ude42 Through the years, we’ve seen her grow and mature from being “absentminded” to being this killer girl boss. Fortuitously, the “real world” and its harshness did not affect her warmth, it only accentuated it.<\/p>\n The last line couldn’t be more true about this wedding! Everyone agreed that it was just “formality” for the marriage, the partnership, and the love between the couple. They have gone through a lot, worked through a lot, achieved a lot, and will embark on a lot more. Asked if she felt any differently after, Ish laughed and said “parang lang kami nagpa-party!”<\/i> (it’s just like we threw a party). And party it was! There was just so much good vibes and so much love for the loving couple.<\/p>\n It was such a great day that I happily shared with my sisters<\/i> – and yes, we were complete!!! But that’s for the next post. For now, enjoy some of the wedding snaps below!<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\nmet<\/strike> knew of Irish back in elementary school when we used to go to the same tutor but never really talked, and like what our friends tease her about: her medals in ice skating that was announced over our school’s PA system. It was only then in second year high school that we became friends. We were seat mates, sitting on the very front of the class, haha! We’d use to doodle on our books, leave messages, ogle at Candy Cuties – the whole nine yards of typical high school girlhood! She was actually the reason I got into the good side of our other kabarkadas <\/i>as we weren’t in the same circle back in freshman year.<\/p>\n
