The following days up to New YEar

OK hellooo.. I'll tell you about Ann's debut! When a girl has their 18th birthday in the Philippines its so different to the UK!
Well me, Kia, Kei, Paolo and Camille left early for the party so that we'd be there on time! For 6pm - not Filipino time! But all the other guests were running by Filipino time so they didn't arrive till nearer 7pm! The place was really beautiful.. On the 11th floor of a building in Makati.. The elevator had an amzing view over the Makati skyline.. And the venue where Ann's party was also had an amazing view  over all the skyscrapers at night...Soo first we ate lots of food.. really good food.. Then there was a band... Ahh i've forgotten what happened.. There were some games aswell.. And 18 roses.. Which is when the debutant (Ann) has a dance and a rose from 18 of her closest male friends and family.. And then there are 18 candles... When 18 of her female friends and family hold a candle and give her an inspirational message.. and then the 18 gifts! Which I was part of.. We had to go up to the front to Ann and explain why we bought the gift for her and give her the gift... We were all nervous about what to say but it was ok.. Then afterwards there was more music.. And then the Cruz (family) band played.. And then it was midnight and time to go home (I probably forgot something.) We wanted to buy cornflakes so we could make choclolate crispy cakes (yes after midnight) but they didnt have any cornflakes in the 7/11s.. So we got a taxi home.. the 5 of us crammed in again.. And Camille wanted to treat us to Mcdonalds.. But they didnt have anything available there.. So much for 24 hours  Mcdonalds! So we just went home and Kei and Paolo went ot buy tapsilog (fried egg, rice and beef) It was nice. especially at 2am...  We all slept over again at Camille's grandads house (he wasn't home,) We started to watch  a film but after 10 minutes i'd fallen asleep.. And we didn't wake up till 11am! Then we decided we wanted to make chocoalte crispy cakes... But I couldn't find any syrup.. So we went to one supermarket and they didn't have it.. then we went all the way to another one which was far away.. and they didn;t have it.. Then we got home and i looked again in the kitchen and i found the syrup! So we made a mess in Tatay Tony's kitchen making the cakes... And then we burnt the chocolate but fixed it again! And after 5 hours in the refrigerator it was ready! It was soo nice.. much better than my last failed attempt on my birthday! And everyone on the looban liked it.. Yay!
OK I think thats it for now.. Tonight I'm going to another party! I need to sleep!
