The CoupleIt has been more than a year (and 20+ pounds re-gained) since the
train incident...
Still wow.
The HusbandLast Saturday, January 27, Dionne and I met with OJ, Bon,
N93 (with
Allan), Dhang and Irish. In that order. Hehe.
OJ was the early bird. According to Bon, he was already at Gateway at around 11AM, while everybody else came after 12PM. Meeting was set between 11 and 12... Nuninu.
When we got to the food court, OJ was munching on delectable french fries from
NYFD. Then he left us to meet Bon downstairs. He was kind enough to offer us the half-full regular-sized bucket of fries. We were quite hungry by then that we couldn't resist eating them...
Nakakahiya naman kay OJ
kaya we decided to buy large fries! Good thing too, since we still had to wait for the others.
Allan and his wonderful N93 arrived next. Seeing the N93 made me want to hide my N90 in shame...
We then decided to check out the movie schedules.
Babel was it.
A few minutes later, Irish and Dhang joined us. Unfortunately, Dhang won't be joining us for the movie because of more important people (drama, hehe). So it's just 6 tickets for us at the center of row K, which I will later realize is a little too far. Row G would've been "optimal". At least according to Richie's theory that the best seats are those that are as far to the screen as the screen is tall. Whatever. Hehe.
Lunch was at
Bellini's. YEAH!

Pics courtesy of N93 and AllanAllan, at first, because he thought we were going to Marikina (Shoe Expo), then Gateway. He preferred the latter. OK... After a little explaining by the girls, he was in.
Before 3PM, we were on our way back to Gateway for the movie. I got 2 vanilla lattes for us from our favorite coffee shop,
Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf.
On to the movie!
The movie was interesting. I got a bit disoriented at first, regarding the sequence of the events. But eventually got it. I must admit that I was more attentive with the parts with the Japanese girl... Haha!
After the movie, we went to Dionne's new favorite clothes shop, F&H. She got a new office jacket at 50% off.
We also went to Bayo and Kamiseta and then Rustan's, to look at
wish bracelets,
crocs sandals, and the new Wade. *drools*
Before going home, we dropped by
Fully Booked to check out the
expensive books... We went home with Orson Scott Card's
Shadow Puppets, a book on Spanish verbs for Dionne, and Dean Koontz's
The Husband.
The MotherJanuary 29 was Nanay's 52nd birthday. We had lunch at
Aristocrat's at SM San Lazaro to celebrate this wonderful occasion. Mommie came with us. Jonjon, unfortunately, was not able to make it from Laguna. He better make up for it next time. Hehe. Meanwhile, Jayson came just before we left. He came from work and looked exhausted. He ate the supposed takeout chicken barbeque right there and then. I'll be awaiting his
libre from his
sweldo. Nuninu.
Dionne, Mommie, Jeff, Nanay and Mae Nananaba. Nuninu. To Nanay, may you have good health and many more years to come! Happy birthday! We love you!
