Birthday Wishes

Zak went from table to table lecturing our guests about Mistula. He is eight years old and wore a Mr. Yum party hat, but his confidence was indubitable as he told an unsuspecting partygoer: Did you know that Mistula appeared on the cover of Manila Bulletin? And Uno’s name is in the encyclopedia!
I doubt if Zak learned all of this information from his father Derrick, heavy metal drummer and our long-time friend. Derrick’s preoccupation is with obscure European metal bands who believe they are sons of Odin, and we do not have enough bodily hair to be in that genre. Thank goodness Zak has better taste in music.
On my birthday, Zak wished for me to rock and roll for real. For more not-so-impossible things, watch this video:

That is just about the cutest thing I have ever seen. Happy belated birthday Uno! Thanks for sharing yours (and Joeys!) dancing skills with us. I too wish for you to grow up and move on your own – less work for Joey! ♥
(PS. I SAW SOMETHING ABOUT A BEAN ON FACEBOOK. CONTRATULATIONS JOEY!!!!!!)
PPS. I MISS YOU. Sorry for being so out of the picture!

Molly! ♥ I missed you! I hope you haven’t been keeping in touch because you’re having too much fun, whatever it is you’re up to these days.
If I did grow up and move on my own, I assure you that I CAN DANCE BETTER THAN THAT! God.

I was pretty adamant about having this video posted (Rey started it on FB) and then decided, FINE, have some comic relief, people! Crazy times.
Yes, the Bean lives! Thank you, Molly! *hugs*

That is really awesome. <3
I’m glad Zak got his wish, in a manner of speaking.
February 10th, 2010 - 11:00
Figuratively, yes, he did.

ROCK AND ROLL!!!!! yeah… that would be nice, a real life Mistula band (along with a real life Magpie to accompany them …. yeah!!!!)
hope all your wishes come true this year Lord Uno.
February 10th, 2010 - 11:05
I’m not sure I’d like to wish for a real life Mistula, Jay, honestly. My life is complicated enough as it is.
But the prospect of not having to carry them around is worth a second thought.

Zak is made of so much win XD
February 10th, 2010 - 11:07
That’s for sure.
February 1st, 2010 - 20:23

Yikes. Thanks.
February 4th, 2010 - 10:39
Aww… Zak definitely knows what wish is definitely best for our favorite rocker!
February 10th, 2010 - 11:14
He also knows his Mistula trivia. I’m proud of him.

..LOL!!!!!!!!!!
that was so cool!!!!!!!!!!
i was astounded by the fact that
Jollibee could become a real rocker if he
wants to..
(with that imaginary guitar he was holding)..
February 10th, 2010 - 11:15
HELL YES. We loved Jollibee all over again.

I tried to comment before, but for some reason I think my connection is messed up. The page doesn’t respond every time I try to post something TT__TT
Anyhow, belated happy birthday to you Uno, and to Veri too <3 Reading your birthday blog entries feels like I celebrated mine with you. (we have the same birthdate haha XD)
February 10th, 2010 - 11:19
Oh, it’s not you, it’s me. Or to put it more accurately, it’s the glitch in the comment field. I should update this version of WordPress, but Zak’s wish has yet to be fully realized. So I’ll wait for Joey to find the time to do that for me.
Is your birthday on December 3?
February 10th, 2010 - 14:03
Yup, and I don’t usually get thrilled about it till I found out few years ago that we share the same. XP
