DJ James Zabiela Pre-Party at The Manor, Eastwood
May 8, 2009Today, Friday, May 8, 2009, Jayvee was so nice to pick me up from home so I wouldn’t have to commute all the way to Makati where I was planning to meet up with Peter after work. I dressed up in a flash so he wouldn’t have to wait for me. Unfortunately, I forgot my purse and I didn’t notice right away that the mini skirt I chose to wear was loose…yikes! (I must’ve lost a few pounds, yay!). So, together with Jayvee, I went to Makati penniless and trying my best to not let my skirt fall off. What an adventure! Hahaha!

Jayvee just finihsed his dinner when Peter arrived.
I accompanied Jayvee to Cafe Bola where he had dinner (good thing I already had mine back at home). Minutes later, Peter arrived bringing some good news from work. Oh, and he was able to withdraw some money for us. Hehehe. Then off we went to Eastwood, excited to see James Zabiela and hoping to socialize with some people too.

The moment we found The Manor (it was actually formerly known as the Basement during my early 20’s), Jayvee immediately informed the receptionist that we were on the guest list. Too bad they didn’t allow our Nikon D40 inside. So we decided that Peter has to go back to the car to deposit the camera while Jayvee and I headed to McDo to satisfy my craving for a Choco Fudge Sundae. I bought Peter a Double Quarter Pounder too. Yumyum!

When I found out about it, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to go. However, upon seeing my name on their list of attendees, I figured I might as well go and learn something new. And learn something new I did.
