A Journey to Art in Island

"Still up kumag?"

FROM: Elton Geronimo, 2:55 AM

Ang restless naman ni Kumag.

-*-*-*

I was in the jeepney on my way to Pasig to Cubao, I was alone in the jeep that time and was just typing in Wattpad when someone poked me. When I looked out the window, I saw Kumag smiling and waving at me. Umaandar na yung jeep so we weren't able to talk. I'm sure he's wondering where I'm going.

EJ and I met at Foodcourt Gateway Cubao. He asked me, "Hindi ka ba nagtaka kung bakit nasa Rosario ako kanina?" Then I remembered he texted, "Rosario na ako. San ka na?" Napaisip naman ako pero very slight lang. I focused on arriving on time kasi.

Art In Island

175 15th Avenue., Brgy. Socorro., Cubao, Quezon City

EJ asked me to pose in front of the signage pointing where Art In Island is. The guard reacted and warned us, "Bawal mag picture dyan kung hindi papasok ha. Dapat papasok sa loob." So EJ said in his irratated voice, "Ha. Eh papasok naman talaga kami." Nakakairita naman kasi talaga si manong guard pero hindi siya worth it na maging dahilan para masira ang araw namin.

Sinet up ko muna yung DSLR camera. Bawal kasi may flash. Tapos, iniwan ko na rin ang bag ko kasama ng sandals. Bawal pala nakasapatos.

Ang gaganda ng 3D artwork. Astig din naman yung mga shots namin. Nakakatuwang lumibot. Accomodating naman ang employees. Although, wala kami masyadong kuha na kaming dalawa, sobrang astig pa rin talaga dun. Ang galing ng mga artists. Kudos. Napakatalentadong mga tao nila. ^-^

After namin dun, dahil gutom na rin ako, deretso kaming KFC. Tinikman namin yung bago bilang double down. Hotdog in the middle of a chicken fillet.

Tsaka lang din ako nagcheck ng phone. Tinext pala ko ni Kumag kung saan ako papunta.

When I checked my Messenger, si Audrey, mukhang excited sa pagpunta namin sa Star City. Pag-usapan daw namin bukas sa Filipino time kung anong preparations namin. Aba, matindi itong batang 'to. Pasalamat siya at para yun sa birthday niya. :D

Audrey: "Cher, subject sa mass kanina is "Be quiet inside and let God talk to you."

Xen asked me to drop by in a CD-R King to buy her a charger for her Iphone 5s. Buti na lang meron sa Guada Mall. Naisipan ko  na rin bumili ng token for the kids, especially the grade 3 pupils dahil sa hardwork nila nung English Fest. And I was really proud of them bagging the third place. I spotted cute animal erasers sold only for php5.00 kaya I bought 20 pieces. Kasya naman siguro yun. Hindi naman rin lahat nag join like Arushi and Kyle. Sana lang maappreciate ng mga bata.

Nagtingin tingin din ako ng damit sa mga ukay na nasa side cars bago sumakay sa Pateros Jeepney Terminal kaya medyo late na rin ako nakauwi. Hopia ako na makakita ng fitted long sleeve shirts kaso wala namang maganda. Walang worth it na bilhin. 😣

Inabala ko ang sarili sa pagplantsa na naman ng uniforms para sa buong Linggo. Pagkatapos, upload ng pictures namin kanina sa Art In Island. Sa sobrang dami, unang 30 pictures muna ang inilagay ko. Hindi ko na rin na filter at na edit. I just transferred the album to my Samsung Duos phone for back up. Nakatulog rin kasi ako agad sa pagod at sa sobrang antok.
