firsts

my usual routine whenever i have my rest day is to go to the market and buy stuff for the entire week. so, my day yesterday was no different from the others. only, i went with abba to the fort.

abba asked me to come with her yesterday to deliver her painting to a gallery in the fort. we met up at tiendesitas because she's coming from UP. its my first time to go there so while waiting for her, i took the chance to look around. i don't have much money yesterday so i just bought small things as a remembrance. :) i bought a coin purse and a cellphone accessory which i gave to my mom. we spent a lot of time in the food court area while we waited for abba's friends. there, i met camille and manoli. the plan was to ask camille to bring abba's painting and then we go home... well, that didn't happen. :) so, we ended up going to the fort in convoy. the funny thing is... di pala alam ni abba kung saan ung gallery. so i asked her if the reason she asked me to go with her is... para meron sya kasama pag nawala sya... hehehe... she just answered... medyo... hahaha...

if i'm not mistaken, the name of the gallery is "e". she and her several artist friends are going to hold an exhibit there. it's in... teka, abba what's the name of the place again?!... hehehe... memory gap na naman ako. hehehe... it's newly constructed and the stalls are not yet completely filled. there's no parking fee yet either. the place is really nice. they have a nice design on the ground floor open space. it's an untraditional fountain. i'm really having problems describing it. hehehe... i just can't get a good view of the fountain for pictures that's why i didn't get the chance to capture its image. on our way going back to the parking lot, we saw a twisted steel jamb in one of the unoccupied stalls and abba's friend camille pointed it out to us and said it looks like an installation. abba and i agreed. abba asked me to take its photo and the results are here:

going back, we almost got lost. abba's in a little panic already. mabuti na lang nakita namin un daan. it's raining kse kaya medyo mahirap hanapin un daan. traffic was horrible as always. since its already late and we were starving, especially me, we decided to eat at pizzeria volare in taytay. we had pizza, pasta, chili con carne with nachos and chicken fingers which i liked a lot because its spicy. natuwa lang ako sa kulay nung juice na inorder namin kaya i took their picture. abba wanted to pose in between the glasses kaya ayun kasali sya... hehehe...

nun nag-CR ako sa tiendesitas, natuwa ako dun sa ilaw na nakatapat sa cubicle na pinasukan ko. i don't get to see a lot of lamps anymore... the traditional ones. so using my camera phone, i took the photo of the hasag. meron pa sana ako kukunan ng picture e... un mga lamps na nakabitin sa food court kaya lang marami ng tao nun binuksan un ilaw and we have to go na so i didn't have the chance. sana next time. :)

i had a really nice time yesterday. though, i was coughing all the time. hehehe... sayang sana kasama namin si yoshie... :)
