FIVE PEOPLE YOU MEET AFTER SINULOG
Sinulog has finally ended but the week has just begun. And after pulling an all-nighter, some might just have a few regrets in the morning after. While some just win at handling the festivity with finesse, some choose to live life on the fast lane. Whichever path of merrymaking one chose yesterday, here below are a few types of people one can possibly meet after Sinulog.
#1 “Ah, hangover.”
These people can rarely be spotted in the morning. Some of them will not be out until around four in the afternoon. When meeting them, tread carefully because chances are they’ll be in a bad mood—nobody’s got time for all the headaches. The good news is that they’ll be very happy if one brings them food. So, being the good sport you are, try to help these semi-zombies with their hangovers and shine some light on those very tired eyes.
#2 “I woke up like this.”
People wear make-up, yes. But these folks have a different kind of make-up going on; the kind that does not come off that easily. Sinulog Sunday is known as a day when all sorts of water-based color paints are splashed on people during the festivity and they just forget to remove them after all the jumping and the dancing. Those who chose to lead colorful lives wake up looking like the party never ended and a drunk unicorn just threw up on their faces. A mirror will be their best friend—or worst enemy—the moment they wake up.
#3 “Time to rise and shine.”
These guys missed out on all the fun in partying the night before but they don’t really see it that way. Some had a few reasons why they missed out but some just really opted to skip the annual celebration. Call them the early birds, they are the ones that the zombies (refer to #1) really hate. Because as early as 8 a.m. today, the birds might have been ready to wake the undead from their sleep by calling, texting or dropping by their houses.
#4 “The lines speak for themselves.”
These people didn’t get these tan lines from running around the streets the whole day. They took the festivity to the next level and just took a vacation from the crowd; away from the city and toward the beach, as they went to unwind from all the stresses that life has given them. Chances are, they are still away from the city today and will probably come back even livelier tomorrow.
#5 “Uh. Oh, no.”
Remember the zombies? These guys are worse. These are the guys whose hangovers have caused them not to have any idea what happened the night before or probably just have a very blurry memory to remind them of it. These people will wake up like nothing happened except for a little bit of headache. Luckily, with social media around, they are about to get an immediate blast from the past. They should just click on that notification button which has been calling out to them all night and relive the memories. One’s memory might get quite blurry but social media will remember you, clearly for ages.
