Like ice cream on a rainy day.

Because like all proper stories, I should start with a proper beginning.

2 weeks ago, I received a frantic call from my fellow EWF-lover, Prudon. She said that they will have a concert here in the Philippines. (Note: They are not the original group but the guy who organized the group was an original :D)

Bottomline is, I WANT TO GO.

And so I asked for the ticket prices and let's just say that NOT eating for 3 weeks in order to save my allowance is not enough for me to buy a decent ticket. The most I could do is beg and cry my brains out to my parents to fund my little concert drive but they said that, wag nalang since I have to admit, gastos lang daw. With a heavy heart, I decided to not pursue the endeavor since it will just be an exercise in futility. Huhu. T_T

I told Louise about the whole EWF thing and she was equally excited as I was. Yeah, Pruds, Lou and I are the ultimate fangirls when it comes to The Band. BUT. There's this one crucial thing: MONEY. Prudon will be able to watch since her mother will pay for it but us, the perpetually-broke rockstars can only dream as much.

THEN... Lou told me that her mother who is the director of the CDC MIGHT GET SOME TICKETS because they are going to stage a concert in Clark, Pampanga but it's not sure pa daw but I guess it's better than nothing right? We're one of the biggest optimists you'll see anyway. I told my mother about this is she was game with the idea of me going to Pampanga for the concert.

2 days before the concert though, she told me that they are not giving out free tickets so we were like,Ok lang. At least we don't have to do that stupid community service pa yung hirit namin to mask the disappointment. (hehe)

The concert was on Wednesday and as usual, grad prac shit then... dismissal time. Her mom texted her that there are already tickets and we were like, OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG! TULOY SA PAMPANGA! I immediately went supersonic on my mom on the phone to allow me to go and thank God she did. :D So, I just asked them to bring my stuff to Louise's condo and off we go to the north!

While we were in NLEX, her mother gave us a crash course on politics! Oha! Then, we visited her niece in the hospital and went to her sister's house. After that, went to the house in Clark to do some chores and then... CONCERT NA!!!!!!!!!

The tickets were actually VIP worth 3000 pesos and sobrang sulit talaga! We can actually sing the songs plus, Louise was also serenaded by the dreadlocks-ed guy! Hahahahahahahahahah! IT WAS THE BEST. We left Pampanga at around 12 and got back to Manila by 2. Buti nalang 10am pa pasok namin because I was able to go back to my house and get my grad shoes for the practice.

So you see, we get to watch the concert and not do the community service.

Biggest dreamers indeed. 

It's just the best I ever had.
