m'bunch in serendra, bonifacio high street and other not-so-interesting happenings

the weekend before new year, after being bored to death at home, jd, rr, gerry, and i went to serendra/bhs to have coffee. we brought along honeybunch. my first reason for bringing bunch with me was for her not-so-often walk. second was, baka may ma-cute-an sa kanya tapos ma-cute-an din sakin LOL.
when we were there, m'bunch was as good as any trained dog. the bitch didn't pee on the sidewalk. she only did when we stayed in the sand box. good doggie. no cleaning up for me.
we stayed there for about 40 minutes and went back to the car. as we were making our way to the car park, i suddenly felt something stop the leash i was holding. turns out, honeybunch was not as 'trained' as i thought. she crapped in the pathway going out to the carpark. shit. i immediately pulled her to the side and she was stopping me with her feet. poor dog. i had to drag her to the side, still. and a family was looking at poor m'bunch being dragged. hahhahaha.. it's not animal cruelty. =P
yeah i had to clean it after. it was a good thing that i brought a plastic bag and plenty of scratch papers. and there's this coffee cup, too LOL.

i downloaded sarah brightman's album a few days ago and found it interesting. i liked the melody and her singing style in hijo de la luna. i also googled the lyrics and with very little understanding of the spanish language, i managed to get the story of the song. yun nga lang, meron pala sa wikipedia. look!

The lyrics depict a "gypsy" woman, who prays an entire night to the Moon goddess for a husband. In the end, the moon says that she shall have her man, but in return she wants her first-born child to be turned over to her.

When the child is born, it turns out that its skin color does not resemble the parent's one, but instead is white "like the back of an ermine" (the white fur of a stoat originating from Armenia[3]), and has grey eyes. The gypsy man automatically assumes that his wife committed adultery, and kills her with a knife. Afterwards, he carries the infant onto the top of a mountain, where he abandons it.

The child is taken up into the sky by the moon, and on nights when the moon is full, it is because the child is happy, and when the child cries, the moon will wane to make him a cradle.

The chorus throughout the song says that the moon wants to be a mother, yet cannot find a lover who will make her a woman (and therefore, impregnate her), and questions her as to what she would do with a child of flesh.

serendra

serendra

ok, ok, you can stick a big L on my forehead already. it was my first time in serendra last night. beautiful. we walked around serendra until high street. it was like greenbelt but bigger - a lot bigger.

it was kathy who told us to have dinner last night. so being gullible like children that we are, we all agreed.
yesterday afternoon, she told me that she'll be late though because she has a german class. it was until 9pm. i figured i should go there early so i can go home early because i'm still feeling the remnants of my sickness. so while kathy was enjoying her german sausage, i was in glorietta waiting for yuri so we could go together. it was just 630 when we met.

a couple of texts to macky, kathy, anne, and karen later on, i was "informed" that we are meeting at 9pm and not before it. ASSWIPES!

when kathy texted me that she'd be late, i assumed that the other would be there earlier. what is the point of arriving late if there are no people present YET. right? RIGHT?!

so anyway, while waiting for kathy, yuri and i went around glorietta i guess more than twice already just doing nothing and "canvassing" for yuri's watch. finally, at 830, macky called me up and told me that the dinner thing "might" be cancelled. nako, if you could've seen my face when he told me that. of course 'twould be better to just wait for them than have it cancelled. so before the conversation ended, we agreed that it was all go and that we should go to serendra already.
well, "attempt" to go to serendra is the better word. pakshet! we went around glorietta just to find a cab. and when we almost gave up and almost decided to take the fort bus, instead, we remembered it was easier to get a cab from greenbelt. so from sm makati, we went back again to greenbelt, passing by landmark. aaargh, my legs were already giving up on me and i was feeling i was getting sick again.
finally, after 6013546875 years of standing in front of greenbelt, we were finally able to hail a cab.

and so we arrived. wow. beautiful. *BIG LOSER SIGN ON MY FOREHEAD*
so while still waiting for macky and the rest of the people, we went around serendra, all while yuri has his lower back pains, and i on the verge of having the full-blown flu. we walked around serendra, high street, and back again to serendra.
fast forward, after LOOOOONG minutes of deciding where to eat, we finally settled in Thai Silk right across Abe. place was nice, cozy, and the food was wonderful. quite pricey though. (well what do i expect?! especially if on our next table MRS. IMELDA MARCOS was there! ok, hel-lo!)
so to capture our ka-jologan in the resto, here's a few pics.

(click to enlarge)


after that, we grabbed our desserts in Miss Desserts. Although i was coughing like crazy, i, well most of us, ordered the this super super chocolatey cake called the earthquake. honestly, it was nothing really special, quite expensive for a simple soft chiffon cake overloaded with chocolate and more chocolate.
again, more of our ka-jologan.



so we finally went home around 130am already.
and good new is, now, I'M FUCKING SICK.

** edit (sept09) i never thought that it was possible for me to register above 39 degrees C. fuck. last night it was 39.4. and today it's playing at 38.5 - 39. dammit.

anyway, here's something for laughs. this is what happens when my face and yuri's face are combined. lol.



and here's more. picture no.1 is freaky! so guess which celebrity my face is morphed into. lol.

l-r: jude law, tobey maguire, adrian brody, ben affleck, david beckham.

and this one, almost nothing changed. me and my mom's face, morphed!

ciao!
