I left my manners at home.

Went to Rob Place to grab a casing for my phone and thought of passing by to powerbooks and grab some FroYo*. Their Blueberries tasted like raw tamarind so I decided to have butterscotch, cherries and mango for it. While looking around, theres this guy in gray who looked at me twice, and I thought for 5 seconds that I might've known him. When I looked at him again, he smiled and usually when I'm weirded out, i tend to always have this smirk. Then he walked to the other side of the mall and i continued browsing.

We all have this dilemma that mallrats are not usually that friendly, so our usual judgment is... that he could be a "person-for-rent". He doesnt look like it though. He has the biggest smile like a kid to a christmas present. I was texting while walking on the fourth floor and I saw him again at the 3rd floor escalator, looking at me, then he waved. So then I smiled. Thinking... wow. He IS friendly (again, dilemma). I saw him walk out of the mall, went to the left side, and so I went to the right side, going to Ministop but theres this car passing by so I turned around and surprised that he was behind me. WHO IN THE WORLD WOULDN'T FREAK OUT ON THAT? He smiled and gestured, "wait". Then he pulled out a credit card receipt and a pen then wrote... "Sorry I'm deaf. Can i Just at least get your name?"

I hand-signaled, No. (Two hands, waving.) But he insisted on handing me the piece of paper and the receipt. I wrote... "Sorry", then paused for seconds just to write anything else but I was frantic. He hand-signed "name" like a nameplate to his chest then pointed at me, so I wrote my name on the paper. Handed it back to him then i made a two thumbs up.

Two fucking thumbs up. Like "Ayos? Ok na?" Then I walked away and went to Ministop after he just stood there with an awkward smile like... I dunno. It broke my heart when I was in the cab thinking about it.

Then yeah, I rode a cab and the thought made me realize... I didnt even ask for his name. :( I saw him eating alone at Jollibee and I ignored that fact. Maybe because he's deaf, he just wanted someone to spend the afternoon with someone. He looked decent and it felt like he doesnt have ANY intentions. Just to meet people.

The world made me doubt everyone. Personally, what I did was rude, and I don't know how to take it back. Stu. Pid.

Then I met my friends at Rockwell, went to Fully Booked then decided to grab some dinner at ToHo BF Homes. It's a chinese restaurant that started as a Panciteria outside the Intramuros walls at 1888. Dude, thats more than a hundred years. How can you not trust a restaurant that cooked more than a century? Everything tasted great. Without exaggeration. From Seafood Canton, Chicken, to Fried Spare Ribs. It is like hell for a person trying to lose weight. But its REALLY worth it. It also claims that Rizal and Del Pilar hangs out at the Intramuros branch during those era. So at least now we have something in common aside from citizenship.

The dinner made me forgot what happened. But I was awfully quiet until the Leche Flan.


This other half could be shared you know. :(

**Thank you for being there. :D I missed you.

That Lane You Do Not Want To Get Through.

Hindi ko alam kung ano ang nangyayari sa panahong to. Alam kong wala akong dapat problemahin. Wala akong dapat isipin. Pero minsan pag nababalikan mo kung ano ka dati, gusto mong tumigil don. Gusto mong walang nagbago.

Hindi ko maintindihan kung ano yung klaseng lungkot na nararamdaman ko. Pag nakakasama mo yung mga dati mong kasama sa buhay, pag nakikita mo yung mukhang sa loob ng ilang taon mo nakasama at hindi mo na gaanong nakakausap, mag-iisip ka kung anong nangyari. Kaya kahit boses man lang, o text, gusto mong maramdaman na andun pa rin kayo sa isat isa. Na kunektado kayo.

Hindi ko rin naman mapigilan na magtanong kung sino ang mas matimbang sa bagong kinakasama. Kahit alam ko namang hindi masasagot ng diretso yon, pilit kong tinatanong. Dati kasi alam kong malaki ang mundo ko. Marami akong matatakbuhan. Marami akong makakausap. Ngayon, alam kong kahit pwede ko pa ring gawin yon, ramdam mo na hindi na talaga pwedeng maging gaya ng dati.

Dati may mga taong hindi kayang mabuhay ng wala ako. Exag. Pero pag nabitawan naman kasi yung mga salitang yon, dati, iisipin mong habangbuhay ganon. Pero alam nyo, hindi talaga. Nagbabago talaga lahat. Nawawala isa isa.

May mga alaala talagang sobrang ganda at sobrang saya. Pero sa tuwing sasagi yong mga yon sa isip ko, bakit ako nalulungkot? Naisip ko, hindi talaga pwedeng ganun habangbuhay. Magbabago at magbabago talaga ang mundo. Mapapalitan ang lahat ng mukhang araw araw mo kasama. Pati sarili mo, hindi mo mamamalayang napalitan na rin.

Wala lang. Minsan, hindi mo maintindihan kung ano na ang pakiramdam ng dating pamilyar.

Monday.


Oh yeah. It's Monday once again. *sigh*

I used to hate Mondays. Now, I don't know what i feel about it. Yes, that's a Jughead comic book. :D

Coco's Rockwell

We're here right now at Howzat watching the NED-BRA match. We just came from Coco's, a grill resto next door with a douche manager.

We went to Coco's first and ordered food for our dinner there. Suffice to say that we ordered food for the whole resto. No kidding. There's five of us, and we had three family packages and two large pizzas. Well, getting ready for the match basically.
They had a screen installed at the front but their house music was too loud. So we reasonably requested to have it turned down since everybody is watching the game.

Our waiter said that everyone is really requesting for them to turn off their music but as Benj talk to the manager, Arvin Pineda (as what the guard said), he bluntly said..

"Blah blah blah... Hindi kami sports bar, hindi namin kayo pinilit pumunta dito, e di umails na lang kayo."

What the fuck is that??? Is that how you answer to a customer's request? BS.

So we transferred here at Howzat, enjoying our beer without the Black Eyed Peas singing in the background. That ass of a manager should get fuckin fired.

Btw, their food sucks too.

Bagnets and Department Stores.

Had another visit at 8065 Bagnet in Estrella Street Makati. Had Spicy Ginataang Bagnet (but I promise you I ate only a few slices. I can't stand Fried Pork not like before. Im old T_T)

Then afterwards we went to SM Makati and I wondered why am I trying to settle with my rubber shoes. It's times to grab a loafer and just for less than a thousand, I saw two pairs, same style different colors. I am definitely going to grab a pair next week. Definitely.





Then on the ground floor, We saw a Twilight-branded make-up. I really didn't come close since I think it's crazy. Well, girls go gaga on Twilight but what make-up do they sell? Pale? Blood red? Like... what?
