It's a hot and lazy afternoon... so what else is new...?

One, I have a newly revived social life...

Thank you Pam, you're a blessing.

Tuesday night marked the rebirth of my social life... after finishing a project (which was keeping me grounded) I went to meet up with Pam at Grappa's in Greenbelt where I ordered some Grapefruit juice which tasted a bit wierd... I still can't put my finger on it up to now... but I actually kept on sipping it. Don't ask my why, I won't be able to answer.

A nearby bar/restaurant had a band playing these really cool tunes... and the really interesting thing is that they seemed to be doing a historical lecture on music from the different eras. Really cool.

After wrapping up there (and wrapping up Pam's unfinished tomato-with-basil-and-olive-oil-on-bread, forgive me for not asking what it was called) we headed on to Filling Station (dead center of Makati's red light district) and got acquainted with all the cool memorabilia hanging on the walls. I personally wanted to steal this clock radio and this really old telephone. You know the kind that has the mouthpiece attached to the body and earphone's cone-shaped and weighs more than your whole phone? That's the one. Too bad though, I didn't have anywhere to put it... and it must've weighed a ton or something, and that doesn't even include the radio.

It was the first time I'd been in close contact with so many expats... and hookers... at the same time. Since the place was in Makati's red light district, you would expect to bump into some of them... but seeing and being there is very different from expecting. No, it was not a bad experience. It was actually really interesting. And I liked the strawberry milkshake that Pam was having, and my iced tea smoothie (yes, yes, it sounds unusual but you have to try it... I think it has vanilla or something.)

.... um, I'll have to finish this post later... my kidnappers are here. That's Heng and Eunice. They're taking me to Megamall, and I don't know why. Must be a kidnapper thing...

Aight!
