Gay Pride 2008

Went to Malate,Manila last night to celebrate Gay Pride! It was a lot of fun. So many cute men. So many parties. However, unlike last year's Gay Pride celebrations, people weren't allowed to celebrate the event on the streets. No street parties/shows this year. The city's mayor didn't allow it I guess. It was still a lot fun. Sorry about the quality of the pics, we only used our phone's camera to shoot them.

Ryan (my bf) and I went inside BED, one of the popular "rainbow" bars in Malate. It was so hot inside because the place was jam-packed with people. I shouldn't have worn a long-sleeved shirt. My goodness! Puro pawis tuloy ako.

I enjoyed the programs presented inside the bar, particularly the drag queens and the Boy George & Diana Ross impersonators.

I also got to hang-out with one of my cute buddies (whose name I will not disclose to protect his privacy) from Friendster. The first time that we got in touch with each other was during Gay Pride 2007. We've been wanting to meet again since then but something always happened along the way (on my part) that caused me to cancel our scheduled meetings. I promised him that I'll definitely meet up with him on this year's Pride event. I also promised him a kiss to make up for my failings in the past...and so I did. Once we were inside BED I gave him a kiss. Ryan was with me & he gave me his permission of course. The guy and I kissed several times on the 2nd floor where there were less people. Hehehe. I wanted to ask him if he and I could have some alone time with each other, but I was too shy to tell him because I have a crush on him. He's so sexy and "moreno." Pinakikiramdaman ko pa siya eh. Baka ayaw pala niya sumama, mabroken heart pa ako diba? LOL! ;-)
