So many interesting sights seen today, the one time I neglected to bring my Ixus40 w/ me to Makati (not counting last week w/ the German cartoon shorts screening).
Henry Calayag's H Salon moved from the 2nd floor of Rustan's to the 4th floor of Glorietta 4, near cinemas 4,5 and Wendy's. Definitely a.. different atmosphere than the one I'm used to when I visit, and by different I mean louder. Even the ice tea was served in a less fanciful glass, and-- gasp!-- turned out to be coming from the common fast food drink dispenser!
The salon's still a work in progress, as the smell of lacquer thinner will attest to, along with exposed, cold concrete floors and walls of glass smudged w/ so many hand and fingerprints it would take all 3 CSI franchises to catalogue them all. And why-oh-why did they settle for a pearlescent tile motif?!? I'll definitely miss the fancy lavatory, w/ it's glass sink counter and... the fact that there was a lavatory, as this place seemed to be lacking it.
After my haircut I bought a turkey sub and went to CoffeeBean & Tea Leaf to hang out. While waiting for my order of Moroccan Mint I ran into old DLSU batchmates Lolita Lachica and Jona Cham, themselves just hanging out. So we hung out together for the next coupla hours: me waiting for Ma's haircut-and-dye job to finish, Lolit taking work-related calls on her phone, Jona just passing time eating Choco Baby. Afterwards we exchanged contact numbers (rrgh, forgot my camera and my calling cards!).
