***spend hours of the friday evening with the boys looking for some brand new poker chips while constantly harassing people at greenhills with impromptu street dances and anger bursts.

***order up and get them bellies aching in one of them chinese restos in the area, food is considered war.

***dodge the friday traffic while breathing second-hand farts in the car and listening to gangsta rap, trash metal and elvis presley.

***buy 3 generoso and 4 lipton redtea litros. and sacks of eaji and lala. and a rimworth of golds, reds and greens.

***play poker. one wins almost 5 grand. the rest of the boys loses but gets a free quarter pounder each at 3 in the morning.

***get dropped off at makati by bino at around 5am, since an old friend is just around the area, text her for a couple of cigs. excited stories of how john beat us all at poker and how someone’s fart was literally set aflame.

***the early morning chill comforting, decide to walk to salcedo park for its saturday market. waited for the market to open. early morning talks over coffee.

***scout the market for whatever i can bring home to my mum and dad in batangas. found tinapang bangus, peeled fresh lanka and fresh assorted bagels. breakfast, hot off the grill tuna belly and huge tilapia. thanks sa thin bread

***board a bus to lipa at around 10:30 in the morning, robinson’s lipa at 12 and grab 3k worth of groceries for my mum.

***magmano ke’ tatay at naynay. small talks with pops over the thin breads. at around 3pm, bawi ng tulog.

***sunday. after 18 hours straight of sleep, get up and fix some coffee and smother a bagel with lotsa cream cheese and finish the current book.

***more cream cheese and more bagels…
