Dejavu?

If you're a veteran reader of my blog, you probably know know that I'm not so much of a planner.

Little did I know that my friends suck at planning too. 

I was just ABOUT to meet them at GH to check the Awesome Planner and maybe have dinner somewhere cheap then hitch a ride home. But Jeric and Ron are nothing but surprises.

The three of us were arguing on where to eat. And since we are all on a diet we chose not to eat at Sizzling Pepper Steak. All of a sudden, Jeric suggested Sambokojin. Ron willingly submitted to the offer. I was a little hesitant because 1) I've been on a diet for two weeks now. 2) I LACK THE CAPACITY TO PAY FOR A PRICEY BUFFET DINNER.

But after a series of life lessons and words of wisdom from the two boys, I gave in. Yes. It included things like "San ba tayo natututo? Edi sa pagkakamali.." and there were those that went like "Pagtanda natin, ikekwento natin sa mga anak natin na nung dati isang araw, sinundo ako nila Jeric sa GH tapos nag-Sambokojin kami, gawin mo yun anak ha.." But my favorite part was "Minsan ka lang naman maghihirap! After two weeks, babangon ka naman ulit.." 


Come on! Who could not give in to sweet words like that? SHT. 

Everything happened so fast. The next thing I know, Jeric and I were sitting on the same spot, the same venue and he was wearing the same shirt the last time we were here. What made me smile even more was when the waiter greeted us with a "Welcome back" rather than the usual greeting they do with everybody else. Yes. He was the exact waiter who was with us on Jeric's birthday celebration last year. The only thing that changed was that there's a Ron Javier dining in with us.

There was nothing new on my plate since I already know what to get and what to eat, given that it's my third time to eat here.

 I was really really trying hard not to eat rice but the waiter insisted that this was our favorite so I can't do anything but to eat this sinful carbs right here. Yep. Two weeks of hard work down the drain. :(

Shrimps are my favorite! The only problem is that I don't like peeling its skin off because 1) I don't know how to do it by myself. 2) Nakakatamad.

Thank God for Fortuna, for he was patient enough to do the dirty job for me. He became my personal shrimp peeler ever since I discovered that he has a talent and patience for this kind of work. :)

 To Ron Javier, even though you bullied my high school alma mater, I still had fun laughing at your jokes and your "HOP" stories. :)

To Jeric, for not only peeling the skin off my shrimp, but for also subsidizing my meal and dropping me home safe and sound. Haha! :p

Indeed a very good way to start February!
