"Red Mango Greenbelt"I was surprised to receive a text message from Dursky - a friend from Dumaguete who is here in Manila to study at the School of Fashion and Arts (SoFA). He was in Greenbelt waiting for me. I did not know we had plans of meeting up. Well, he mentioned that in the past but I was just caught off-guard. I was on-duty but I was not really doing anything anymore because there were no more patients. They have all flown because its a Friday.
I panicked because I thought that Dursky was alone at Greenbelt. I never liked being alone. So I thought, I don't want him to be alone there too.
"Dursky"
Took the FX from MakatiMed to Greenbelt and went directly to Powerbooks because he was there waiting. Then we went around Greenbelt in my white nursing uniform because I did not come prepared while he was in preppy clothes with a Vuitton at hand. I realized that I did not want Coffee Bean because I was there last week so I decided to bring Dursky at Red Mango. He got some frozen yogurt while I got my Cafe Americano which was so bitter that I had to ask the lady to bring two sachets of sugar and creamer. She was so nice to give me what I wanted. And so Dursky and I started catching-up.
All the while I thought he just arrived from Dumaguete but the truth was, he has been here in Manila for two months. He received a scholarship from SoFa for a year of their diploma degree. I have always believed that he has the potentials in becoming the next big fashion designer in the Philippines. I have seen his sketches in college and I saw his creations and they were good- very innovative and artistic. His talents are boundless and that will take him to greater heights.
Terj, the tired nurse came grumbling about his job and I did not know what to do with him anymore. He is my designated "melodramatic" friend but for the past weeks he has been very sparkling and sunny except for today where he has with him his payslip.
The fashion-design student, the tired nurse, and I had dinner and coffee. After realizing that its already nine thirty in the evening, we hurriedly went home and walked to our designated jump-off points.
It was a happy night and you can find all the synonyms of the word to describe how we were that night.

vitori, i hate you! haha! i was just so tired that night! work started at 9am, was so lost because patients were not properly endorsed, duty finished at 3pm, wasnt able to have lunch, then had my exam at 3pm which i had to finish in 30 mins. add to that, a doctor humiliated me in front of my patient, a patient's relative asking me something which i cannot answer, the charge nurse making all these side comments and a demanding, mean Austrian patient. haaay! but it was a fun night! :)
