I got so excited when my friend informed me of her short visit in Manila. It was so short but it seems too long.. since we had lots of fun together.. we were friends since our college years in Xavier - Cagayan de Oro.. the last time we met was in 2004 (if i'm not mistaken!).. It's good to be reunited with some friends...it's a therapeutic and refreshing feeling all in one.
The day has come.. her plane arrived at 9:30 am.. I was a bit late since I need to commute from Cavite to NAIA3.. we had our brunch at the airport.. and proceeded right away to Imus, Cavite to settled down her things. At 1:30pm, we headed to Divisoria - known for tiangge stores, cheap wholesale items. It's been sometime that I had visited this place (the last was in July - with sis Ann). We did spend time praying inside Binondo Church - San Lorenzo Ruiz Parish. Took some pics, of course.;)
We wanted to shop at 168 Mall, but there was no electricity at that time... so dark inside that we are prompted to go to 999 Mall.. Shop.... Shop... ooops! Divisoria has new open malls - New Divi Mall, 999 Mall.... As usual, the streets were so crowded by shoppers - who are so eager to stroll around just to find much cheaper rates.
At 5pm we walked on our way to PNR (Phil. Natl Railways!).. Yez!We did ride the train from Divisoria to Alabang.. wow! what a 45min trip..hehehhe.. at least we saw different views (i.e. home-along-da- riles!) aside from the so 'crowded' passengers inside. We had our dinner in Chowking, Starmall, Alabang.
From Alabang, we proceeded to Imus.. so exhausted but we were energize that we still manage to have 'videoK' - singing out loud!! - perhaps this was the reason why typhoon Pedring is here! hehehe.
Sunday morning, we had our breakfast - coffee, Gardenia wheat-raisin bread, scrambled egg..
