Fi Gar On Igh Ts

It didn't really start as Figaro nights... but it ended up as such. As always.

I had the opportunity to watch Candice's brother's band (named 'Pepe's Meat Band'... i know!) last Saturday. Hmn, okay naman yung songs nila. Although I really think, I will never ever blend in with the crowd at the Round Eyeglass Kape in Malate. Damit pa lang, day! (Right Paolo?) Kung sila black kung black, pastel kung pastel naman kami ni Pao! (me in light green, Pao in pink!) And of course, I don't drink. Although I took a sip from my bottle of Colt 45. (Walang lasa!)

And then, we're off to the busy streets of Malate. (Hindi para rumampa. We were looking for something else to do and somewhere else to go to.) Dyos ko, puro mga bading! Kung hindi man, bi. (Pero para sa akin, pareho pa rin yon.) Yung iba, wala, weirdos lang talaga. Not really my kind of crowd. I'm sure, hindi rin nila ako feel.

Anyway, nag'trek' kami papuntang Figaro Baywalk. The funny thing about that is lumabas kami sa street na medyo may kalayuan sa Ped Xing so ang lola Paolo namin was trying to coax us in just crossing right we were (kung saan may island at may sign na 'Bawal Tumawid' sa kahabaan ng Roxas Boulevard! Kung hindi ba naman baliw ang Paolo na ito. Depressed ka pa rin ba, day?!). So the prim and proper moi and Candice said no. Etong Paolo na 'to proceeded in walking at the middle. Nung hindi kami sumunod, nagpapadyak (bakla style) sa gitna ng kalsada! (Too bad, the cars were far away pa. Hehe!)

So off we go to Figaro. We chose seats overlooking the bay. And we talked and talked and talked... until the wee hours of the morning. Hindi ko na sasabihin pa kung ano ang pinag-usapan namin pero may mga linya sina Pao at Candice.
PAO: Hay nako, ang gulo talaga ng isip ng mga lalake. Mabuti na lang bakla ako!
CANDICE: Hindi naman ako yung nag let go.
Nako, anong mga issues itoh?! Haha!

Aside from that, close to nature na naman ako (well, sort of). Naalala ko ulit na gusto ko ng magbakasyon. Sigh.

Some observations sa kalaliman ng gabi sa Manila bay. (Mababaw lang mga 'tong mga 'to dahil ayaw kong mag-reflect at magmuni-muni. Although I was hoping na sana makakita ng falling star... syempre wala. Kasi minsan lang ako makakita ng star sa Maynila. Yung shooting star pa kaya!) Three seconds ang pagitan ng pag-ilaw ng lighthouse (the red one). Tapos, sa kalayuan din (kasi nga madilim, nakikita pa rin), may isa pang lighthouse which emits a red faint glow na five seconds naman oras. And then, there were two large 'boats' in the middle. Yung isa, I know, belongs to a school. The other, I dunno. Tapos, there were two moving lights from afar. Ewan kung ano. Mabilis eh so imposibleng ship or boat. (Hindi ko sinasabing UFO sila. Hindi ko lang talaga alam kung ano. Haha!)

Hindi ko na matandaan kung anong oras ako nakauwi. basta ang alam ko, tulog agad ako paghiga ko sa kama.

BTW. Eto gusto ko lang sabihin dahil hindi ako makapaniwala eh. NAGTEXT SI KEL!!! Meaning, nagparamdam ang lolo Kel! Finally. After centuries of waiting. Hehe! Sa sobrang tagal na, himala na ang makita ko ang pangalan ni Kel sa inbox ko. Miss ka na namin oi!

SUNDAY, MARCH 26
Dahil sa isang importanteng bagay, may meeting uli ang coffee friends. This time, ang Figaro na tambayan namin talaga. Greenbelt.

As usual, kaming tatlo ulet nina Candice at Pao... this time with the original coffee queen na si Anj.

Kuwento... kuwento... kuwento...
(Si Candice, heartbroken pa rin. Can't get over the event last night. Kaya naman medyo mataray ang lola mo. Haha! Si Paolo naman, natipuhan si Figaro waiter, Oh well, what's new?! Haha!)

And then, lakad kami sa Ayala Avenue to look for manong squidballs. And then, Mini Stop.

Wala, hindi rin namin nagawa ang original na plano naming gagawin. Oh well, there's always
next time.

'Next time' means this coming Tuesday. Haha!

>> PICS LATER ulet (Hinahanap ko pa rin ang nawawalang bluetooth! Kaasar!) <<
