K88 Christmas Party

First of all, we would like to thank Jay Ravalo for hosting this year’s K88 Christmas Party. Not only did he provide the venue for this year’s gathering, but he also made sure that food, drinks and entertainment were overflowing during the party. Maraming salamat, Jay!

I became the official photographer last night (what’s new?). And thanks to my holiday-season-induced-hypertension, I wasn’t able to drink alcohol, nor partake in the sumptuous lechon feast. Yeah, I know, it sucks!

But someone’s gotta do it. Someone has to write about this event. So here’s my Top Ten low-cholesterol and alcohol-free recollection of the things that transpired last night.

1. Two words – live band. Yup, it was not your usual drinking marathon kind of a party. There was live band entertainment courtesy of our host, Jay Ravalo.
2. Jay Ravalo proved to us once again that he is the uncontested Minyong of the batch with his guitar playing wizardry.
3. Gatchie was a revelation on the drums. And so was our Little Drummer Boy Jun Lara.
4. The K88 Boy Band was officially formed last night with Bong Estrada on lead vocals. Rey Carlo, Chunky Ramos and Rod Vagilidad provide back-up.
5. ‘Tis really the season for giving. The batch agreed to help, not only the PCC Boys Basketball Team, but also the PCC Girls Basketball Team with their athletic requirements. Way to go, Rigmarolers!
6. Boyet Valencia loves us so much that even in these trying moments during his mother’s death, he squeezed in a few minutes last night just to be able to see us and be with us. Our condolences to you and your family, Boyet.
7. Kapitan Mario Concepcion showed us samples of his new sex wonder drug which he claims is extremely effective. For orders, just call 1-800-PAKAGAT.
8. Jeff Sulit defied his Cinderella Guy trademark when he stayed at the party past 12 midnight.
9. I found out that I could drink 5 gallons of mineral water all by myself. Sensya na Jay kung naubos ko tubig sa water dispenser nyo.
10. Next gathering would be on January 12, 2008 to celebrate Sajid’s birthday. So for those of you who missed last night’s festivities, better not miss out on this next one.

I do not have the complete list of those who attended last night. But I guess, a rough estimate of around 25-30 people is a fair estimate. Just take a look at the pictures and see who were there.

Merry Christmas everyone!
