Settling that one errand of mine, I was off to go to Galleria - the nearest mall in Ortigas. I decided to have my feet working and have some uneven strides on my way there passing the corporate buildings and the people rushing to get their errands done for themselves.
During that walk, I was sight seeing while I have that Maroon 5 CD playing moderately on my ears. Finally getting there at Galleria with my eyes contented from the feast, the mall's security guards had their routine on each of their customers - checking bags and pressing their hands against the bodies for security purposes. And for a moment there, I thought of their job as a cool profession.
My second task was to watch movies...Emphasis on the 'S' please. I checked for the time screenings of the movies and decided to watch Ned Kelly and Birth, one after the other respectively since these two movies are the newest additions in the movie house.
Not having my lunch yet since all I had was a medium sized, ripe papaya for breakfast, I decided to go for the unconventional Palabok Fiesta Meal with extra rice from Jollibee instead of the popcorn and soda crap to bring with me in the moviehouse. Inside the moviehouse after getting that best seat and opening my meal, the attendant forgot to include some gravy together with my mouth-watering crispy chicken joy. Instead of experiencing this as a one bad trip, I decided to just settle for my palabok.
During the course of the movie, I could not help but wonder (and I was serious), "Did this movie earn what they had spent from production?" I haven't heard of this movie came out in Hollywood. Was this a prodigal flop Hollywood movie? Or was I just uninformed of this movie? I was willing to venture out more on this thought but the sudden appearance of a foot on top of the chair beside where I was sitting caught my attention. Thanks to that foot I have had my concentration back in the movie, or so I thought. Just when I was ready to thank the foot that it became a liability. From that top of the chair, that foot just popped out from behind on my arm rest wiggling. I was ready to burst out my temper but when I turned back, it was a grandmother who was behind me and it was her foot. Paying respect to that foot's owner I held back and just decided to concentrate more on Ned Kelly. "Respect the elders" got running in my head as that foot tried to wander around.
It took less than two hours to finish the movie. And from that foot challenge, I survived. I got grateful to God from that experience. Imagine if the foot smelled like a dead rat on top of that chair. It could have been worse. Sighs. Remember, "Respect the elders".
Getting out of that cinema, I went again to Jollibee to confront the attendant who got my order but found out she was not there. I ended up asking for a gravy and ordering another dalandan juice for my next movie.
More cautious this time, I chose my seat for the 'Birth' screening carefully with full scouting on elder people right behind my chosen seat. Sighing for relief, I settled and opened my un-eaten chicken joy and started finishing it off while the movie has not started yet. And so the movie started. Less than two hours later, it was done.
As I got out of the movie house, I browsed for fashion grabs quickly and concluded that vintage fashion was still hot for guys. I thought of shopping but then again I was broke and jobless. I found out I had no money for shopping, poor me.
After that quick window shopping and fashion updating, I finally decided to go home - drooling over those nice denim blazers and vintage wears.
