And then I asked Rica, "What time?". She replied, "Lunch time?"
"What time ang lunch?haha.."
"Hahaha.. 12."
And I joked and told her that sometimes lunch could be at 3pm!
And hey, I was right! Haha..
I woke up Saturday morning around 5am. Come 10am, I was feeling really sleepy but I had to fight it because I need to prepare for my lunch date. I was running a bit late but I was not able to text the two because I didn't have load for my prepaid phone. Purita amor, right? I left home few minutes past 12nn, passed by a nearby store to buy load, and rode the bus bound to Robinsons Galleria.
I received the prepaid load almost around 1pm. I texted the two and asked them if they're there or if they're on their way. No replies. I thought they may just be busy strolling around the Mall. I arrived and texted them again. Still no reply.
We were supposed to go to Megamall and eat at Pepper Lunch. But I decided to stay in Galleria while waiting for their texts. I went window shopping and looked for shoes. I received a text from Rica around 2pm saying she's still at home and was waiting for Joana's message. And then I received a text from Joana saying she's also at home with a weird question.. "why?"
Apparently, Rica texted the old number of Joana, and Joana had no idea that we are to pursue with the plan! Rica was apologetic though, she said she'll be on her way. I had the feeling that she just woke up, haha! She worked the night before so I understood. And Joana said she'll still come but she had to prep first.
At first, I got annoyed. Eventually, I was just laughing at myself. Well, I missed my two college bestfriends so it was not really the best time for some non-sense fight, right? I decided to just enjoy myself while waiting. I thought I could watch a movie but there was none that fits my timeframe. So I just strolled a bit more and went to Saizen to check out cute Japanese stuff. And then I wanted to eat ice cream at DQ but it was jam-packed. I had McFlurry and McFloat instead at where else but McDonalds..
To cut the story short, Rica and Joana arrived almost 4pm. I still wanted to watch a movie so we had a quick brainstorming of what to watch - Taken 2, Pitch Perfect or This Guy's In Love with you Mare. Taken 2 won with two votes, mine and Rica's! We were laughing at Joana because we thought she didn't want to watch a movie but she arrived with a bag of popcorn!
After the movie, we ate at Papa John's Pizza. We had the 9" Super Papa's pizza, complete with the pepperoncini and the garlic sauce, and Penne Meatball Bolognaise.
Super Papa's Php370 |
Meatball Bolognaise Php200 |
I couldn't stay any longer since I have work at 7pm that night. Sad! And these two have more time to bond, unfair! They should give me a treat next time, right?

Lesson Learned: Lunch time is no longer the usual 12nn. I should know that already! Why? Because I've been working for 6 years at a BPO company and our one hour break which could be anytime.. may it be 9pm or 12mn or 3am.. is called LUNCH! :D
Ciao! ♥
Ang sosyal ng Papa John's ninyo sa Pinas, may plato!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, with the hours you had to wait, it's so sayang because you could catch sleep na lang since you were working that night. Bummer!
DeleteSo walang plato ang Papa John's dyan? San sine-serve?
DeleteHahaha, bange nga ako sa office nun gabi e.. Nahuli kami ng manager na natutulog sa station while on break, pero dedma lang naman siya, hehe
I like ur attitude. Kung ako yan baka umuwi nako. Ayoko pa naman nang pinaghihintay ako :) hehe. Namiss ko mga friends ko :)
ReplyDeleteE sino bang gustong naghihintay?haha.. Nasayangan din kasi ako sa effort ko kung uuwi pa ko e kaya keri lang..
DeleteGreat blog! :) I've read your Liebster Blog Award i received that award too! It's so cool!

DeleteTypical pinoy. Buti you are patient. Me iI dont like waiting, kaya kung ako baka nsiyak na ko:) but there was a reason:)
ReplyDeleteNo, I'm not that patient! Nagkataon lang na sila yun hinihintay ko, kung iba yun masasaktan ko talaga, haha..
Deletedito sa amin 2 pm na rin ang lunch hehehe... haba pala ng pasensiya mo ... pero sabi nga may reason naman... kasi kung di ka naghintay di mo sila makakasama at mabigyan ng time para maka bonding sila...
ReplyDeleteUn nga lang lugi ka kasi nauna kang umuwi hehehe... sarap ng pizza ^^
Tama! Hindi ako naka-chika ng bongga sa kanila, hehe..
Deletebuti na lang...
ReplyDeleteButi na lang.. at hindi ikaw yun kundi lagot ka saken, wahaha

ReplyDelete* Pareng Jay was here
Lalo na kung nilibre sana nila ako di ba? haha
Deleteang sarap naman ng (late) lunch date nyo! Dito sa Spain, ang normal lunch talaga is 3pm hehe. Pag nagpunta ka sa mga restau ng 12nn... sarado pa ang kitchen so nung mga first few months ko dito, gutom ang abot ng lola mo kasi nde sanay mag lunch ng 3pm :-D
ReplyDeleteSpanish Pinay
Wow, interesting to know, iba pala talaga ng lunch time sa ibang bansa, hehe..
DeleteYan ang Filipino time,hehehe, ang lunch namin dito sa restaurant is ended till 3 p.m. at mag starts mostly 11 a.m. mura pa yong babayaran mo.hahahaha, kasi pag 3:01 na dinner time na dito mahal na yong mga pagkain.hehehehe..
ReplyDeleteHa? 3pm, dinner na agad? Mas maganda pang magluto ka na lang sa bahay kung mahal din lang, hehe
Deleteoo, mahal ang dinner nila dito kasi yong serve is pwedeng 3 meal sa akin.lol..malaki ang serve nila dito pag dinner kaya parating my box ako kung kumakain kami ng dinner sa labas kasi dinadala namin pauwi yong sobra, at normal na yon bitbitin ang sobra.lol.
DeleteAng yaman mo talaga miss joanne!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAko pa ang mayaman e ikaw nga yung pa-Cebu Cebu na lang dyan..
Deletekung ako yan sasabunutan ko sila pagdating..yap pagdating kasi hihintayin ko pa rin sila hahaha besides they were still my friends..mas hindi na nga ata ako sanay sa lunch na 12nn-1pm eh..
ReplyDeletehalatang puyat ka sis..look at your eyes on the last photo..hehehe.. singkit singkitan...
Hahaha, talagang pisikalan agad sis? Hindi pwedeng tampo tampo lang, sabunutan talaga, haha..
DeleteAy naku, antok na antok naman kasi ako talaga, haha..
natawa naman ako pero tama ka yung lunch ngayon iba na the last time na nagkaroon ako ng lunch date 4pm na hihihi lunch pa rin =D
ReplyDeletesarap ng food!
Kaya next time, magtanong ng eksaktong oras, hehe.. Yun lunch namin e naging 6pm na, haha!
DeleteFavorite ko din Pizza at Pasta! Sige, namnamin mo lang ang pic, haha
ReplyDeleteMs. Joanne you really have a pretty smile. I like it when you smile, your eyes are smiling too. Bolero ko no? hahahaha! But keep smiling, it makes other feel good.
ReplyDeleteAnd talk about Filipino time. Hahaha! It frustrates me lalu na kung may iba ka pang dapat gawin. I usually set dates with friends on days when I really have nothing else to do because there will always be those two hours of waiting for their tardiness, another hour for debating where to go, and 30 minutes for deciding what to eat once we're alrady there.
If I still have work or some other appointments I make sure that I invite those who are on time, or at least those who are usually just 15 minutes late. It's not like I'm the most punctual person on earth pero nakakasira talaga ng araw kapag ganun.
Totoo ba? Hahaha! Ang laki pa naman ng smile ko, tipong kita pati gums ko tas nawawala yun eyes, natatakpan ng eyebags, buti may naka-appreciate naman pala! :)
DeleteHaha, ako rin naman, may mga times na nale-late ako, pero ako yung tipong nagsasabi agad habang maaga pa, set ng expectation ng kasama, ayoko kasi ng feeling ng nagpapahintay at ng naghihintay, hehe..
Yep lunch time could be anytime. But "meeting time" should be fixed and everybody should show up :P
ReplyDeletemahina pasensya ko sa antayan, kung ako siguro nag walk-out na ko. I totally agree with Mr. Tripster
Hahaha, tama! Dapat nga may eksaktong meeting time, hehe..
DeleteAgree ka kay Mr. Tripster na I have a pretty smile? Thanks! Wahaha..
nakak relate talaga ako don sa sinabi mo. anytime yung lunch break
ReplyDeleteAy siyempre teh! teletech babes tayo e, hehe
DeleteYou've seen Taken 2? Was it good? I've been meaning to see it eh, hopefully next week.
ReplyDeleteYup! Pero parang mas maganda yun Taken1 for me.. Worth it pa rin panuorin siyempre, hehe
DeleteIt was so nice of you to wait for them in eternity. You should have told them dinner not lunch time, lol. Have a fun day !
