when restless AEs drink beer, what do they do?

When restless Coke AEs meet to have decent dinner and a few rounds of caraffe and beer, what do you get? An over-energetic game of CHARADES?

Last night 121 saw the fiercest battle of AEs in an exciting match of charades! The category ranged from the most mundane to the most trivial stuf like Jologs Quiz, songs across decades and Oscar-movie contenders.

There were six of us: ER, Lot and Me (the group that won!) and Gen, Aya and Yettie. While chugging beers and caraffes, we were also busy acting out the topics and emoting to death. Heck, we didn't even care if there were other people staring at us. We were really game; hungry to get each point!

Here are some sidelights worth mentioning:

1. ER's attempt to act out SPOILARIUM. ER gamely channeled an acquarium fish tank with matching pursed lips and swiveling hands. Nope, we weren't able to get it.

2. My rendition of The Redemption Song. I had a full story acted out to build my redemption story. And to be fair, it was a very good one!

3. Yettie's Homage to local flick-dom. She singled-handedly guessed Lagalag: The Eddie Fernandez Story.

4. Yettie again. Sounds like "paypay" ... oh..oh.. (excitedly) PETRANG KABAYO! Ang layo naman...

5. Gen Wang and her "immortal" performance. the song was my immortal, she acted out my aswang.

6. ER again. She was supposed to act out Maggie Dela Riva Story. She was acting out a scene from a Maggi commercial. drinking soup, getting raped. wow, i got really confused.

7. Aya was the winningest performer/actor that night. And her best rendition of how FORNICATION should be muestered.

8. And Lot. The lola in violet tights was looking very intently at her crocet top. She was undressed by this groovy lola and she didn't know.

It was a fun night. the hardest entries that night were the following:
1. Theme from Mahogany
2. Mr. Holland's Opus
3. Bohemian Rhapsody
4. Sweet Soul Revue
5. THX118 (Gen, this is not an award-winning movie, it was a George Lucas' director's cut and the main title should've been THX1182.)
6. Amelie

And this early, Gen and Aya are lobbying that we change teams. I think we should but i want to stick it out with my current as well. ERs got the "years" so she knows more songs than i do. Lot is really skillful with songs and can act really well. And me, well, i'm just passionate about this game.

Well, until the next round of charades... in the meantime, i am already thinking what our next topic should be.
