COUNTUP

Sister's Saturday

After lunch I got some office work done and rushed to the SM Supercenter in Pasig to catch my friend Joy Alano's 1-Act play called All I Want at the Coffee Nook, w/c she directed. I went w/ Wella and w/o the benefit of a newer street atlas book (it was in the other car) we got lost for almost half an hour and and ended up missing almost half the play.

The Coffee Nook was located in the same floor area of the supermarket, so having a play inside a packed coffeeshop w/ only glass walls to dull the noise of grocery shoppers outside wasn't exactly ideal. You could also tell it was the playwright's first play since the jokes were kinda predictable and the dialogue contrived, but it had its moments. Actually it reminded me a lot of my first One-Act Play. (Reworking the diaglog on it now.)

After the play Wella and I ordered coffee then went to Tiendesita's next door to check out she stalls. She ended up buying a faux vintage Wonder Woman print T-shirt.

Sis' birthday was also today, and for dinner she treated us to Banana Leaf at Robinson's Ermita. Food we ordered was better than what Goldy and I had last week when we ate at BLeaf in Greenbelt (w/c was followed by 1 scoop of Gellato ice cream immediately afterwards, but I digress). It was during dinner I realized that I forgot to pay for the coffee at Coffee Nook! I texted Wella and she suggested that we have to be them, so I said fine and that next time we get lost looking for that place that's the first thing I'll do.
