I met with Ice and Vincent yesterday at Afters for some good ol' get together since we haven't seen each other for quite a while. We got to talk about stuff that's happening with each of us; Ice's wedding and her preparations as well as how her fiance proposed, Vincent's growing business (among other things hint: gym time!), my status at work, why we should visit Makati Med, a good business venture for Ice and Vincent with me as their first test subject, future plans and us getting old, my brother's kid, plus a new term for someone who doesn't look good in pictures as well as in person. Can't post it here though but it's really funny (laughing a little as I type this). Oh, Ice got MangoRed to be their wedding photographers and she got them to tell horror wedding stories one of which was really gross. Let's just say someone had an extra cushion for the whole event.
After a quick lunch at Congo Grill, we went back to Afters to hang around, eat some affogato, and try some of the new gelato flavors, snickers, chili chocolate, and gelato popcorn! Popcorn for me is the best but I also like the chili chocolate. It's better than the sili flavored chocolate bar that I've been eating because the gelato is a lot colder and smoother, balances out the heat from the chili. Ice was also able to try being a cashier for one transaction, something she's really looking forward to, and you can see that she really likes it based from the photos below.
If only Afters was near my office, I would really hang out in that shop because of the ambiance. We were actually surrounded by students that afternoon who were studying and some groups of people just hanging out the same way did. That's how cozy that place is. It's not loud, not that bright, good music, wooden floor, the smell of coffee, plus gelato and some cakes.
It might not have been that long of a get together, and we're actually missing Carissa because she has some obligations since it was Sunday, but it was a day that I'm thankful for. It was a day of realization and relief accompanied with a lot of laughing.
