everyone had a good time on CHARLIE ECHIN 'S " BIG 5 OH !! ". it was once again an opportunity for TAGON-ONS to enjoy one another. CHARLIE and Marissa rented a place for the occasion ( FUNTASY DANCE STUDIO AND BAR ). They could have done it in their lovely home but they decided to rent a place equipped with great sound system, disco lights ,huge dance floor ( amoda nan buwadan nan humay , exags!! )giant size video screen for the VIDEOKE lovers and wall to wall mirror ( to give you a better view of how you shake your booty in the dance floor ) by the way, the owner of the place is a fellow surigaonon, a former SB member of Bislig, Victor Arval. Charlie and Marissa didnt settle something less for this momentous occasion ( ginastohan gayud , what is !! mitad na gud nan gatos )Kanaman yadton yanagplano na mokadi garo but due to some valid reasons didnt make it ! bagan magtiyaho gayud kun makita lang nila of what's been goin on ,as the party unfolds. Charlie was really overjoyed to see that everyone's having fun.We prepared a short program with mana baby dignos as the emcee of the night ( inpa titulohan na niya yaon na tahas ) Selected people paid their tribute to charlie , bro joe ruena ( husband of cholly elizalde & uncle of marissa ), mrs. cita esmeraldo ( marissa's mom ); and mana lorna correos ordinario gave a testimonial - when Charlie barely started here in AMERICA ( as i quote charlie " nan panahon na mag mag-abot pa kuno an iya luha sanan sip-on ). Marissa gave a song number and their daughter Charissa gave her daddy a hawaiian dance number while charles matthew ,charlie's son sung happy birthday to his dad. Me and Marissa made a surprise slide show for Charlie, it was made by a graphic artist friend of mine. Without Charlie's knowledge, marissa was able to sneak out old pictures and selected pictures of charlie, bagan sa kaban pa yadto panguha-a. the slide show gave everyone a glimpse of him , then and now. everyone sweat the night away in the dance floor, of course thanks to the owner, a DI at the same time.even iyo cente correos( 83 years old ) gave it a try in the dance floor, laong pa niya " puede pa man baja " with his waya waya accent. we ended the first part of the night at 1 AM , but guess what , part 2 ensued at the Echin's residence which lasted until 10 AM. ( can you believe that !! walang tulugan !! laong pa ni iyo cente correos , ay ay tugubi na kay anhi, kun wa pay kuno katig lunod na !! i dont know why, bagan feeling nan mga tao ngadi kibali TAGO da isab. at almost noon time yatuwa dayon si marissa nan latab na isda with kumpletos rekados , basta kay, huwasan lagi an mga hubog.lamii na pagka-luto ni marissa. there are 2 things, i like the most in this couple, it's their warm hospitality and humility.kanaman isab they are bless not only in there business but their family relationship, as well.i'll post the pictures later.
