So when I said I’d join my fellow Pinay colleagues to go clubbing last Thursday night, they were all so surprised. For one, they’ve known me as someone who’s not into the clubbing scene. Since I’m already married, they were also worried that hubby will not approve of me going out without him. But having been blessed with an understanding and liberated husband at that, I was allowed to go out on a girl’s night out with my friends at work. in fact, he even drove for me, H and M to our meeting point.
We went to Trader Vic’s at Madinat Jumeirah and The Apartment at Jumeirah Beach Hotel for some bust a groovin’. It was sweltering hot on both places as they were packed with people, but even so, we had so much fun that we parted ways at almost 3:00 am.
As if we couldn’t get enough of each other’s company, we met up again the following day. We crashed at Nick’s pad for a get-together over chips, Marry Brown chicken, home-cooked Pochero, Black Forest cake, Brazo de Mercedes, Moist Chocolate cake and Cheese cakes. Just like any other visit to Nick’s, the evening ended up as a karaoke night. Thanks to his karaoke mean machine, the singing prowess of my Pinoy chums at work were unleashed!
After the rest of the ‘singing’ group had left, we decided to play a few rounds of boxing, baseball and tennis on Wii. M, hubby and I left Nick at peace at half past 2:00 am worn out and tired from all the singing and gaming.
It was pretty busy bonding time with friends at work last weekend, but I didn’t mind at all. I had an amazing time with them and I hope there’ll be more in the future! ‘till the next night out and house party!

Small world indeed. Those 3 ladies (Abbie, Michelle & Arjay) were my classmates back in HS. Tapos cousin mo rin si Sarj. Galing. Pareho tayo, I've bid adieu to clubbing after having a baby.
