Saisaki Jack in QC (Photo Album)

June 1, 2007
Quezon City
Philippines

(apologies to Samurai Jack and G Tartakovsky..and of course to Jack too but I couldn’t resist)..wicked me!

It started on the last week of May when Hugzone and his better half Guia gave me a dinner treat at “Sugi’ in Greenbelt 2. Although Ms. G was disapointed at the lack of the parsley tempura, we abandoned our diets (cept for Ms G) and I found out that Jack was here and they would be having dinner with him on Friday itself. Generously, they asked me to come over and arranged for me to have a ride to Quezon City.

Telling my team lead I had to go on an out of town trip (anything beyond Makati City is out of town for me) and that I would miss the phone conference that night, I worked feverishly through my emails and tried my best to get thru the afternoon’s pile of work. Lunch with officemates at Teriyaki Boy Paseo Center delayed me a little bit, but who cares when there was something to look forward to that night?

I whizzed to the resto along with Faith, another fellow Multiply-er..a charming young lady who had a wicked sense of humor and pouty lips which reminded me of Angelina Jolie…I met her for the first time that night and I was happy to share the ride with her and get to know her a little bit in the process…thanks for the “vintage” line Faith!, now I can use it whenever the age topic pops up…

I was happily munching along with the others in Saisaki and having fun ordering a fruit juice because there was a free fish stuffed toy. You know how Pinoys are…bahala na ano yung drink, basta free yung stuffed toy. Even Jack himself was determined to get a blue one!

I met their other elementary classmates like Melissa and Cora (I can’t remember their full names if these are correct or even all of their names..again blame the grey cells). It was sweet listening to them reminisce about their years…and even comparing their faces with the old photo of their section (turns out Hugzone was not part of it). Yung nga lang, yung conversation turned to health at times..hehehe…

Ms G came in late, but she brought along the new comics idea/storyboard/prototype they were working on..so I had some kilig time too..(oi, I read Mills and Boone and Harlequin during my younger years, where do you think I got all those good English phrases like “telly”, “fortnight” and “incestuous relationships”? *British accent*)

After we won the contest of “which Saisaki customer would be the last to leave the resto”, Jack said that it was his despidida that coming Monday…if ever mapadpad kami sa QC, punta daw kami sa kanila..ah..the time was too short..but at least, I got to converse with Jack.

Thanks to Sir B for starting the ball rolling…I managed to meet in person first Choie, then Faith, then Jack and by their very presence, they have already enriched my povs (point of views)…now what are the odds of that happening all in less than a month’s time?

Till next reunion, kainan, gimikan…I hope other people will also be as blessed as I am to make new friends as likeable as these people have turned out to be.

Saisaki Quezon City on June 1, 2007 (video)

intermission from posting my Sanfo soujourn: During a dinner at Sugi Greenbelt this week with Sir B and Ms. G I luckily got an impromptu invitation to a dinner in abovementioned restaurant. It was also a reunion for Hugzone’s elementary classmates. I got to meet Jack and Faith in person (fellow Multipliers) and friends of hugzone from way..way..way…uhm…way back…*grin*
