so many stories...

so little time.

i've been terribly busy the past week or so, shuttling between appointments and stuff to cover. the first philippine medical tourism congress is over. full report coming up.

last night, josaw, together with friends and former colleagues from abs invited me for a screening of al gore's 'an inconvenient truth' at the megamall. it was for greenpeace, an environmental organization here. saw some interesting people. hehehe.

juddah paolo was all over, interviewing people and some personalities. i wanted to approach him and tell him that i met his sister last year at the kapamilya summer caravan in pasadena. well. and angel aquino was there since she hosted the event. i wanted to approach her and say hi after the event but she was busy talking with people. on our way out, one of my friends decided to go to the bathroom so we waited for her by the escalators. angel, on the phone with someone, approached me and said hi. not wanting to be rude, i said hi, too. (she was on the phone people!) she multi-tasked while we exchanged pleasantries. it's been more than 16 years since i first met her. damn, a pretty long time. she's looking good with her short hair. nice.

we had late dinner at JT's Manukan. yup, the JT stands for Joel Torre and this is his, well, manukan. more like, ihawan. it's a branch of his successful chicken inasal grill which he started somewhere along gilmore. the one we went to was the branch near abs, near esquinita. the chicken was very, very good. as my colleague said, it tasted as if they made it into a chicken adobo first, then barbecued it to perfection. or, they had an adobo-like marinade (but aren't all marinade adobo-like?). and they had wi-fi, too. they wanted to see my old ibook.

as usual, photos coming up.

happy thanksgiving guys! happy black friday, too. happy shoppinga nd happy haunting!
