I, being the self-proclaimed surf-poseur in my barkada, partied with long-boarders, short-boarders and fellow poseurs (hehe, sorry, inside joke) in Casa Nami last night. The Siege of Baler Surf Competition’s kick-off party featured Blackstone and NATF. Loved the moments when the crowd went wild singing along to hits like Highway to Hell (AC/DC), With or Without You (U2) and Don’t Stop Believing (Journey). Pero the best pa rin nung sa 2 Steps Behind ng Def Leppard! :p
I bet the surf comp in Baler this weekend will be crazy! Goodluck to Joko and Linc who both registered. Zoe, compete na rin! 🙂 Believe in the Wahine power! :p I hope Joko wins the surfboard. I don’t know why she needs 3 boards, but I support her positive vibrations that she will win in the raffle!
*sigh* If I weren’t so afraid (the apt term maybe, is traumatized) of being in the water (baths not included pffft), I would have chosen surfing as my sport. Three reasons:
1. I have impeccable balance. Or so, I’d like to believe.
2. I need an arrant reminder to stay fit and (ahem) sexy. Kung ‘di pa naman makapayat ang pagbubuhat ng board at pagpapaddle, ewan ko na lang!
3. I envy the laid back lifestyle my surfer buddies have. Yes, I’m talking about you Joko, Kwe, Mio, Tingpats, Lorraine, Joey, Paolo, Luke, Kassy, Allan James, Zoe, Richard, Jef, Lorre, Marge and Ejay!!! taga-picture n’yo na lang ako habangbuhay! *tear*
Anyhoodles, here are the pics from last night! Sorry for the red-eye shots! :p If you want better photos, check out the FB page of LokalSoul. 🙂
Allan James (na mag-aartista na. LOL), the Wahines Joko and Zoe, Coach Ejay and Linc Ong.
Brian, Coach Lorraine, Levi, Manong Joey and Joko (Brian is Joko’s soon to be offering to babybunny Kwe, ang Prinsesa ng Camarines Norte)
Zoe, why are you with these delightful crazy ladies? WHY?
Casa Nami’s buffalo wings, you’re so hothotHOT! And soooo goooood with ice cold beer!
Mio, Me and Allan James (si Paolo Soler aligaga kagabi hindi maka-stay put for picture taking)
Spot the non-surfer. Yes, my espasol look is a give away. :p
Poseur-fail. Haha.
