SG-MNL-SG: 33 Hours (Part 3)

I was vacant from 6-7pm, just before dinner and after the cake baking session and so i met up with Lanee for tea - Starbucks Shangri-La. We had to do speed catching up within one hour and so we did. Lanee & I have known each other for almost 10 years, she became my travel buddy last year...and so...the coffee session instantly became a planning session on where to go next and ofcourse you cannot discount the amount of gossips we were able to do - it's natural, we're girls :)

By 7.10, my mobile phone was ringing, I have not seen my dad yet, I have a dinner to go to, I have a coffee meetup with Dara and Emman after dinner and I was just plainly exhausted. The thing is, when I am in Manila, I don't have full control of my time, I have to follow my folk's and relatives schedule of which nothing is definite until it really happens. With this, it is hard to arrange and pre-plan my own meetups. Thank God for good friends - they fully understand my situation. I love them so dearly and they have been with me through these years....incredible!

Ok the phone was ringing, I was on my way home, the gate opened and my mum was outside again waiting for me to leave for dinner. I had to rush up, say hello to my dad because he will not be joining us for dinner - that took me about 10 minutes :( , then off we went to Mann Hann for a simple dinner with again the usual suspects - cousins, aunts and uncles. This group, generally meet up and go out almost every night for dinner and I really enjoy being with them too, they are fun and do gossip alot, which keeps me current :)

Dinner was normal - tons of food and ultra hungry people.

By this time, I was really tired and sleepy, I had cancelled coffee and was just ready to hit the bed in order to be at the right state of mind for the next few hours to come...
