When I said I'll set up a tea party, I meant it.
My friends from Davao were going to celebrate their birthdays together and invited me over to attend. I was in Manila that time so I can't possibly heed to the request. Although I could, but since due to timing and all, I couldn't pull it through. So to make it up to them, and to have my tea party dream come true. I've put the 2 together and viola, I hit 2 birds at one time.
The good things are ethereal theme I had going; the silk, and pink satins, the pink rose, the petals of roses trailing towards the set up, the cookies, cakes and biscuits, all propped tastefully on top of a high table with a golden frame with my hand written definition of a goddess:
The bad are there's nothing really bad about it. Well perhaps the whole situation was not at par from my expectations but that's really how life is right? I was planning more ethereal, but that was only what I could come up with, but hey at least I tried.
The ugly part is well the stories. Our party started 5pm and ended at 9. What was planned to be an ethereal goddess party, was meant to empower them to see the goddess that they are. But I guess I didn't execute it that well. Serving tea, sweets and posting goddess definition wouldn't really make them feel empowered yeah? But it was a great setting for them to open up. It was a therapy, a release. Something that they needed. Something that we all need. And I was glad that we were all there as a group of sisterhood, supporting each other in times of the good, the bad, and the ugly.
