Stranger Things 4 volume 1: a Character Analysis 

(for the second to last time besties, let's go)

Jane/Eleven: deserves a nap. should be compensated for all the shit she does for others. Victor Frankenstein, is that you ???

Will: gay™ & an artist™. "turn arooouund,, looook at what you seeee" - still has the worst haircut in the show (they've done you dirty my man). I'm not saying Alex Standall,, buuuut....

Mike: has the worst wardrobe in the show (affectionate), asshole (affectionate), bad friend (derogatory).

Dustin: apparently the smartest person in this show apparently. has a tone problem. still funny :)

Lucas: has the best hair on the show :) jock™. Trying to do other things than just play D&D, good for him. Shot the final shot, v proud of him <3

Max: trauma™ - also deserves a nap fr. she was a skater girl™, we love her ok ??? she's great

Steve: babysitter (derogatory)™. Still trying to find a girlfriend ??? (take a break king). hairy™.

Nancy: gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss™

Robin: disaster lesbian™ (love the representation)

Eddie: looks like he's 30, why are you in high school my good sir???

Jonathan: in his Zach Dempsey era <3 pothead™

Joyce: couldn't even be gone for like two hours before everything went to shit. deserves a break !!! has now been to Russia

Murray: rat (affectionate)

Hopper: so in season 1 they played on 80s archetypes and turned them upside-down blah blah, but my dude is in is 80s hero era, they've completely lost the thread of what they did in the beginning.

Erica: amERICA ! ! ! still playing into that sassy black girl stereotype I see. loved when she played D&D with the gang though <3 "it's a club for nerds" she's not wrong

Henry/One: *it was Agatha all-along*

Victor: :(

Doc B (not me shortening his name): no comment.

Argyle: Netflix owns Eduardo Franco at this point, so it was only a matter of time before he joined Stranger Things. Good to have you here king. Pothead™

Mr. Wheeler: you may hate him, but he speaks the truth. "A club for people who won't graduate high school" cut to a bunch of people who've continuously repeated their senior year.

Mrs. Wheeler: you flirted with an underage boy last season, I have not forgotten mam.

Barb: still haunting this show I see.

Enzo: he's a cool dude, I'm glad you're not dead king

Suzie: tech™, mormon™, like lowkey the coolest person on this show

Other characters: *exists*

BONUS!

Ships:

Mileven: you know when you date someone when you're like twelve and it's cute and then suddenly you're older and it's not that cute anymore? yeah. Girlboss + Stick vibes :))) (sorry Mike, not my words)

Byler: currently a one sided affair, let's be real, the writers never intended for this, but it's cool that they're doing something now, and if Will does end up not being queer, at this point it will be queer baiting.

Jancy: "We're fine" cut to them not being fine

Stancy (this can not be their ship name): god, this again ??? we can't just switch every season it's exhausting

Mucas: they still care about each other and that is all that matters

Joyce x Hopper: that hug sustained me for another year

Suzie x Dustin: couple goals™ (fr though, they're like the healthiest relationship on this show)

Squads:

LA Crew: yells in unison. buries dead bodies ?? is perhaps the saddest crew I've ever seen, like I know they're going to El, but God they haven't been plot relevant for a few episodes. They're fun though so I'll accept it. Vibes > Plot.

Hawkins Gang: making a bunch of progress. plot relevant™ - off saving lives and shit. Dustin has no one told you to respect your elders?

The Adults™: off on a trip to Russia, just casual things you know. Still keeping the Soviet storyline alive even though that should've died last season.

The guys™: lmao they haven't been a friend group since like the beginning of season 2 :'(

The Hellfire Club: I'm ngl, if I was Lucas I would also bounce

You know my MotoGP ships, is time for you to spill the beans.

Yep.

So before I answer this, this is only in fantasy purpose and not related to their actual real life in anyway obviously.

My main ship is Mav/Jack

I lowkey ship both of them separately with Rins also but generally it end up badly for Rins...

My other fav is Jorge/Dani.

Then I also like Brad/Miguel

Alex M./Luca

Alex M./Franco

Marc/Luca

Tito/Joan

Enea/Luca

Tatsuki/Nicolo

Albert/Alex R.

L. Baldassari/Luca

Really lowkey Diggia/J. Navarro

I read a lot of Mavio but if I find they dynamic and aesthetic interesting, I don't really ship it.

GRETCHEN BARRETTO AT ALICE EDUARDO’S BIRTHDAY BASH

Alice Eduardo with Gretchen Barretto, Korina Sanchez, and Small Laude

Some of the country’s who’s who in Alta Sociedad passed other invites so they could make it to Alice Eduardo’s surprise birthday celebration. Alice Eduardo, a construction magnate, has always been low-profile. But there is nothing lowkey with the said birthday celebration.

The list of A-listers who attended the celebration proves our point. Among the attendees are Gretchen Barretto with partner Tonyboy Cojuangco, Ruffa Gutierrez, Marjorie Barretto, Lucy Torres and husband Richard Gomez, Mons Romulo, Mimi Que, April Nery, Charmane Lagman, Kaye Tiñga, Alelee Aguilar, Cris Albert, and Patrick Rosas. Joy Ortega, Korina Sanchez, Karen Davila, who came with his sons David and Lucas, Ben Chan, Miguel Pastor, and Edu Manzano also graced the celebration.

It was indeed a successful surprise. Little did Alice Eduardo know that her sisters Small Laude and Melba Solidum planned a surprise party for their beloved sister with the help of Nicole Ortega. Alice Eduardo was told there would be an intimate family dinner with their parents and children. Her parents and her children welcome Alice’s well-wishers. Clad in a stunning Escada outfit, Alice Eduardo entered the venue to her family and friends’ joyful singing of ‘Happy birthday to you!’ Imagine the shock on her face when she saw familiar faces in the crowd. 

Meanwhile, it took the sisters and Nicole four days to organize the party. While the night started off with delicious cocktails, Gaita Fores’s Cibo prepared an excellent Thai buffet dinner and desserts to everyone’s delight. Bands Mulatto and Sauce provided live entertainment. The party was remarkably beguiling because of the music, which began with sweet melodies during dinner and turned to danceable tunes afterward. Singers Pops Fernandez and Franco Laurel also gave a heartfelt performance. From Gretchen Barretto to Alice Eduardo’s children, everybody enjoyed the night. Alice Eduardo herself sang and danced the night away. Indeed, a touching sight at the latter’s birthday bash.

The party was held at the eponymous Patriarch Building in Chino Roces Avenue, Makati City. 

A generous gift giver

It may be her special day, but Alice Eduardo is more known as the lavish gifter in her clique. Indeed, her love language is gift-giving, and dare we say, not just ordinary gifts but luxury items. In some instances, she favored giving meaningful presents that the receiver would genuinely appreciate.

For one, she once gave Gretchen Baretto a statue and flowers for her 45th birthday. She also gave Kris Aquino luxury bags, shoes, and clothes. The most opulent of the gifts was the Php2 million worth Cartier watch. Aside from being long-time friends, Alice Eduardo and Kris Aquino are both godmothers to creative director and columnist Tim Yap. She also gifted social media darling Scarlet Snow Belo dresses, accessories, and a Gucci bag. 

Indeed, only a woman of impeccable taste would know not to receive, but to give, give, and give without expecting anything in return.
