A Birthday Celeb in Giligan's

September 9, 2015

Giligan's, Robinsons Galleria, Quezon City

For some reason, I think this was the most memorable moment of my life. Hey, t'was my birthday. I've celebrated it with friends that I don't go out with everyday. T'was really a fun night. We talked about memories, happy and bad and of course, the people we knew.

By the way, someone in the mall approached me to apply for a citibank credit card, in exchange of an umbrella. Because of it, I grabbed the opportunity to own an umbrella for FREE! Hahaha.. Cheap, I know but this made me smile.

I also able to claim my first ever free slice of classic chocolate cake from Stabucks that I've missed for the past 3 years. So sweet! Laveet!

Thanks guys for spending the night with me!

Christmas Get-Together 2014

December 19, 2014

Starbucks, Greenfield District, The Portal, Mandaluyong City

We were celebrating our Christmas this year by having this gathering of people who's been there for quite sometime now. I missed these people. They were all busy with their different lives now but still for the occasion like this, they managed to insert it in their busy schedules. And its like, this is something I always look forward too coz its kinda tradition already, you know. Unfortunately the others had prior commitments. Sad :(

Of course, this gathering starts with a dinner at Icebergs-Robinsons Galleria. Then moved to Veranda but there were no available spaces for us, so we decided to moved to Greenfield District. Sweet catch-up moments, plans, smiles and the laughs. Hayz.. Last year, kinda serious a bit coz they talked a lot about business but this time, travel and adventure. Wow, can't wait for it. Hope I can join them. Cross fingers!

Second Day In A Row

Starbucks-Greenfield District, Mandaluyong City

We had dinner at Reyes Barbecue - Shangri-La Plaza. Then went to Greenfield District to continue the things we need to finish before getting late. Thanks for the treat guys!

For the two consecutive days here, same table and same position, I hope you're noticed something in common for the picture here and below. Hahaha

What A Long Day To Call

Starbucks-Greenfield District, Mandaluyong City

This was my last stop before calling it a day. At least, this time I'm doing important. Cool!

Catch Up Coffee

October 22, 2014

Starbucks, 2F Robinsons Galleria Veranda, EDSA cor. Ortigas Ave., Quezon City

I already forgot when was the last time we had coffee together. Hmmm.. Since it's been awhile its kinda short time for this gathering for catching up. But its OK at least had great time.

A Christmas and Year-end Gathering 2013

December 26, 2013
Starbucks, Robinsons Galleria Veranda, EDSA Corner Ortigas Ave., Quezon City

Since we (Ms Honey, Ms Girlie and I) arrived at Robinsons Galleria earlier than the others, we decided to have our dinner at Bonchon. I ordered Thigh Ricebox (1pc) with regular root-beer for PHP95.

When the boys arrived, they've decided to transfer to Mang Inasal (Jay's choice). When we arrived at Mang Inasal, the place were so messy and dirty! The floor were very dirty and wet, the tables had dirty plates and so messy. Can't find a clean table anywhere in the area. It's like an abandoned but operating place. So we ask assistance to clean a table for us. There's an attendant who clean the table just for us but he never clean the messy tables next to us. OMG! Few minutes later, an old lady slipped. She called the attention of the store manager and demanded for an explanation of a dirty wet floors. Oh gosh, so disappointing place.

After dinner, we moved to starbucks for the usual business or should I say for a 'business meeting'. Hahaha.. Couple of days ago, this group talks a lot about business but for some reason, it slowdown. Then Robert, opened-up the topic for some discussions. Then never realized, all throughout the meeting talked about business. Nice!

A Productive Meeting!

Starbucks, Robinsons Galleria Veranda, EDSA Corner Ortigas Ave., Quezon City

So far this is the most productive meeting. And I guess everything is about to be finalized! And from now on, I'll be expecting more meetings to come.

"Roll-up lang? Wala bang roll-down?" Waley hirit!

"At last, may part na din ako, taga compute" proud address of participation!

Shocks, kahit anong isip ko di ko na maalala ang ibang lines. Hahaha.. Update ko nalang to pag maalala ko na. Tulungan nyo nalang ako guys kung ano un.

Starbucks at 515 Shaw

July 26, 2013
515 Shaw, 1555 Shaw Blvd. corner Laurel St., Mandaluyong City

Harangan man ng ulan, matinding pila sa jeep ay hindi paawat ang pagpunta sa unang araw ng 515 Shaw branch. Natawa lang ako dito kc may nakasabay kami na kakilala ni Rich sa jeep. Ang sabi "Bakit doon pa, marami naman sa malapit, meron sa Megamall, meron jan oh sa harap (pointing Worldwide Corporate Center, Shaw Blvd.) at marami sa Ortigas". Well, ang hirap namang sagutin. Next question please!

Starbucks at Raffles Building

June 18, 2013

G/F Raffles Center Bldg. Emerald Ave. Ortigas Center, Pasig City

We found new tambayan. Hehehe.. As if naman bago lang to dito. Well, kami ung bago dito. Although this is not our first time here but this might be our new tambayan. Hehehe.

Thanks sa treat Ms Girl! I miss the old days. But it seems everyone is busy now. So ung libre lang ang pwede. Sino at ano na naman kaya ang magpapabuo ng ng grupo? I hope laging positive. Naalala ko lang kc ang huling nabuo ang grupo ay ang pagpapakilala ni Edlen sa kanyang iniirog. Ayayay!

Dito ko nakuha ang 2011 Planner! At mukhang may nangyari pa dito kaso di ko na matandaan eh. Weh!

We Are Complete!

March 21, 2013
Starbucks Araneta, Cubao, QC

Hindi pangkaraniwan ang araw na to dahil may ipapakilala si Edlen sa Grupo. At dahil doon kumpleto kami. Ito palang ang pangalawang pagkakataon na kumplero ang SMAFTS. A rare moment!

Introducing Geraldyn Mae Lee, not yet an official girlfriend of Edlen (kasi sa 27th pa daw). Ah, di naman halata sa pictures eh. Mukhang ka-kilala nga lang nila eh. Hahaha.. Hula ko, bago maging official na mag-on sila nagkapalit na sila ng mukha. PEACE! ♡

Naalala ko lang ang sinabi ni Jecelle kaninang umaga na nagulat sya kung bakit naka-polo si Edlen kc may date daw pala. Noong nakita ko nga, nagulat din ako. Mukhang pinaghandaan nga talaga ang araw na to. Nakz naman!

Nakaka-miss man ang ganitong pangyayari. Kaso di pwedeng magtagal ang karamihan kya nabitin ako sa pagkakataon. Parang ang dating tuloy every minute gusto mong i-treasure. Noong pagpaalam na sina Edlen kasama si Robert, umuwi na din kami. Shocks wala pa yatang isang oras kami magkasama.

Backtrack, si Leo naiinip ng maghintay sa amin sa SB dahil sa foodcourt ng Gateway kami nagkita-kita at kumain pa si Robert sa dala ni Ms Girl. Gusto ko pa din sana kumain kaso di na kami nakakain. Sabi pa nga ni Leo, nahihiya na daw sya sa mga nagtatanong ng upuan kc di nya binibigay dahil ni-reserve nya sa amin. Aw!

The unexpected gathering.. (the reunion?)

July 7, 2012

It all started from the invites between Ms Girlie and Rich to have coffee one day. Ms Girl opened-up the idea to the group and Edlen responded positively (partida pa, may sakit). Cool! As usual, Jay did not respond to the text message because got no load. Hahaha.

Original meeting place: Starbucks-Veranda (Robinsons Galleria). Last minute it was changed to Araneta, Cubao. What's new? Dito ata kami magaling, pabago-bago isip.

FHM cover girl Jackie Rice's autograph signing at Robinsons Galleria Movieworld, kya dumaan ako para sana magpapirma pero haba ng pila eh kya di na din ako tumuloy.

Dumiretso na ako sa Cubao, unfortunately super traffic. Ang kadahilanan ay ang bagong patakaran ng MMDA na bawal sa flyover ang mga bus dahil sa mga recent accidents sa EDSA. Ayon, buhol-buhol na traffic.

Pagdating ko sa Cubao di ko pa alam ang meeting place. nagtext ako kung saan sila i-meet. Ang sabi lang sa akin ay sa KFC daw sila. Am, wait lang ah, ilang KFC ba meron sa Cubao? Hayz.. Una kong pinuntahan sa Telus pero wala sila doon. Tumawag sila pero lowbat ako kya di ko na sinagot ng matagal, sabi ko text text nalang. Sa call may nabanggit na P. Tuazon kya tinanong ko nalang sa cashier kung paano papunta doon. Dahil medyo matagal ang text, lumakad na ako going P. Tuazon pero pagdating ko doon wala sila. Nagtext pala sila at ang sabi "dumeretso ka then pag may nakita kang stop light kaliwa. then deretso til you reach kfc". Linaw diba? Kya ang reply ko nalang "Wala kyo dito sa P. Tuazon, right?" saka pa sinabi sa akin na nasa Shopwise sila. Ayon oh, un lang sana ang hinintay kong direction. Ano ba yan.

Nakarating din sa wakas, naabutan ko pa si Ma'am Honey. Pero umalis lang din agad kc may ibang lakad.

Kya tumuloy na kami sa Starbucks. Order coffee, chikahan at tawanan all night. Hanggang sa nagutom ulit kc pala super late na kc 1:00am na pala. Naghahanap kami ng lugawan. Pero nag decide na mag-Chowking congee nalang. Pagdating sa Chowking, puno sa tao dahil concert pala ni Sarah Geronimo sa Araneta kya madaming tao ang kumakain. Lumipat nalang kami sa Aurora Blvd. Chowking parin. Umorder na ako ng chowfan kc wala pa akong hapunan, pero wala pala silang congee. Malas naman. Pero tuloy nalang kc naka-order na.

Kain, chikka, tawa. hayz.. Nakauwi kami 3am na. Galing! Hahahaha..

Happy Birthday Jay

May 3, 2012

Birthday ni Jay kya nagkayayaang lumabas. Actually, ako ang nagyayang lumabas dahil may mga pasalubong ako dahil kararating ko lang galing ng Zamboanga. At dahil birthday ni Jay, sinulit nalang ang pagkakataong ito para magkasama-sama ulit. Unfortunately, di pwede ang iba kya okay lang.

Robinsons Galleria, Movieworld ang tagpuan kya picture picture muna. hehehe. Kapapanood lang pala ni Ms Girl ng The Avengers habang naghihintay sa amin. Musta naman un. Ganun kami katagal dumating. Hahaha, what's new. Chos! Di naman.

Kumain kami sa Greenwich (Barkada treat para mura), Jay's treat syempre. Kya maraming salamat sa Treat Jay. Sa uulitin ha?

Tapos kwentuhan. Kamushanan. Picturan. Tagal ng di nagkita eh. Nyahahaha.

Mahaba pa ang gabi kya deretso na sa Starbucks para ituloy ang kwentuhan, tawanan at kulitan. Tapos humabol si Rich. Lumalim na ang gabi pero puno puno parin ang kwentuhan parang kauumpisa lang kya lang magsasara na po ang Starbucks. hayzzz.. Picture muna bago alis.

Di pa kya tapos ang kwentuhan, sige lipat nalang tyo. Kya lumipat kami sa gilid ng National Bookstore at doon pinagpatuloy ang kwentuhan. Hanggang nauwi ang usapan sa mga cartoons, movies at TV series. Kumusta naman un? Ang daming TV Series pero nagtapos ang usapan sa CHARMED. May part 2 ba to? Well, palagay ko magkakaroon ng film viewing this weekend ng CHARMED. Ayt! Aabangan ko yan. Sino sino kya ang makakasama? Nang-imbita ba kyo? Mukhang exciting ito. Excited na ako. Excited na akong di matulog ulit. Hahahaha.. Puyatan ito sa weekend. Kumusta naman un.

Bicol Trip (Sidetrip: Lemery, Batangas and Tagaytay City)

May 5-8, 2011

Hindi nakasama sina Jay at Robert! Kailangan daw kc ma-emphasize na hindi sila nakasama. Hahaha. Anyways, another first time to visit this place. Pupunta sana kami sa Caramoan Island, unfortunately may bagyo kaya di kami natuloy. Nakakatawa pa, kc noong pauwi na kami ng Maynila ay hinahabol kami ng bagyo. So buong byahe namin pabalik, umuulan. Saan ka pa? Akala ko nga titirik ung sasakyan namin kc lumulusong na kami sa baha.

Intense ang byahe na to at sobrang masaya. Hindi nga lang nakasama sa pagligo si Edlen sa CWC kc sumama pakiramdam nya. Sya pa naman ang nag-iisa naming driver. Hahaha! Sarap ulitin!
