Oh, Facebook Memes: 25 Favorite Memories with 25 Different People
Posted by Lauren | Under Personal Neuroticisms with 4,070 views Friday Feb 6, 2009ALL RIGHT ALL RIGHT I’LL DO THE MEME ALREADY YOU CAN STOP TAGGING ME NOW K?
Last night, I started working on the 25 Things About Myself meme everyone’s been doing on Facebook, but halfway through it I started blathering on about Lacanian psychoalanysis, jouissance, neurosis, and hysterical desire. The whole thing sounded like I was secretly hoping that the Lacanian terminology would disguise the fact that I am a crappy girlfriend for trying to break up with my boyfriend three times this week for no logical reason. Then friends started tagging the crap out of me to do the memories meme, which basically says:
Leave one (or more) memory (-ries) that you and I had together.
It doesn’t matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
Don’t send a message, leave a comment here.
So I figured, I’d hit two birds with one blog post and combine the two memes together! In this entry I shall list down 25 favorite memories I have of 25 different people, in no particular order. I will not name names, but feel free to guess which one of these is you! (Hint: If I tagged you on this note, you’re probably here. :P)

1.) The day after I arrived at San Francisco, I fell asleep on your lap at Golden Gate Park because I was too jetlagged to do anything else.
2.) Greeting 2008 by watching slasher movies in my room!
3.) Two days before you left for New York, you slept over and we talked about how you found out that your father isn’t actually your father. Then we went shopping the next day. Come back, I miss you. :(
4.) Writing songs with you at school or outside my dorm. Being sad with you in general, because it makes me creative for some reason. Did you know that I haven’t made any music since then? Quit your job and write songs with me again!

5.) I have too many favorite memories with you, so it’s a toss between the time we rode through the coastal towns of Bohol on a motorbike to get to the tarsier farm, or you and me pigging out at random places. Food tastes amazing when we eat together.
6.) That time you chased me around Ortigas in your socks and pajamas because I got mad at you and kept walking away. I’m still a little embarrassed at how childishly I reacted. :\
7.) Two words: Sunday school. Okay, I have tons of way better memories with you, but you have to admit – this one is funny in retrospect. :P
8.) That small party you threw by the swimming pool of your condo!

9.) Being the legal witness to your marriage. I didn’t want to show it, but I was actually tearing up when you guys exchanged vows.
10.) Pigging out with you at Something Fishy after a long night of drinking! (I know, I know, I suck for never making the time to hang out with you guys again.)
11.) The time you left me Sartre on my bed. :)
12.) Shisha and beer at your balcony while we made plans to go to the Hong Kong film festival. It doesn’t matter that we never made it to Hong Kong, it was great hanging out with you again after all those years.
13.) Those times we kept going to the Market! Market! food court after school with our respective then-boyfriends, whom we now kind of respectively hate.

14.) Taking turns puking in the bathroom the morning after the Hohobag Valentine’s Day party! You tried to teach me how I could induce vomiting, but I couldn’t bring myself to stick my fingers down my throat.
15.) The night before Ale arrived, you slept over and drove me to the airport at 4 am because I couldn’t do it myself. That was really, really sweet of you. :)
16.) You calling me up when I was in San Francisco to make sure that I was okay.
17.) That time when we were newly friends, and I was depressed, and you sent me that song from Explosions in the Sky to make me feel better. A confession: I actually ended up crying more cos I was *touched*. Yeah. Never mention this to me, k?

18.) Exploring Singapore like total cheapskates: hopping on random buses and trains with no plan in mind, and amusing ourselves by watching the city zip by.
19-21.) Two words: Jef’s condo.
22.) Sitting on the steps across Macy’s while we read through your Livejournal archives. Good times. :)
23.) That time you broke up with your boyfriend, because it’s when you and I started talking way more.
24.) Smoking with you at the soccer field after the worst gig ever.

25.)The night you randomly came over and made amaretto’s in my room!
REALLY MUST THAT BE THE BEST MEMORY YOU’VE GOT?!
— Kidding. We’ll catch up soon.
