Hangin' out with the old crew.

I moved out of Merville paranaque last year. It was bittersweet. I do miss my buds. So when they demanded that I show up to the Christmas party, I was floored with excitement! I just had to go! And I did! And I was glad.

The party was held at Brazil, Brazil (or something like that) at the Fort. Lovely place. Pricey chow though.

Me, Edric, and Zer.

More of me, Edric, and Zer.

Martin's loving his new camera.

William, and me.

Brenold and Denise.

Jo, and her bro, Jay.

William waits for his next meal.

Amanda, and Chebz. What's with the emo faces, guys?

Denise, and William.

Zer, and Martin's son, Jeff. I love playing with that kid, If only he wasn't so scared of me.

Of course, arriving fashionably late, Cocoy and Tiff enter the scene. Here, Cocoy's showing our secret handshake. Well that's what I was told when I was younger. Nice to see you too, fÜcker. Hehehehe.

Jeff, Cocoy, and William.

Jeff loves Uncle William the most.

After that, Cocoy invited us to his house for a round of Wii in Merville. Man, I really missed the place. It was nice seeing the familiar streets. Hell, even the guards remembered me.

And finally Edric, looking dumb. Some things never change.

NOS Boys Saturday Night Bombing Run

Ok, little story first. On the way home Friday night, my headlamp went out. I was bummed. Went to Gil's The following day to have it looked at. Turns out the Bulb's busted. Gotta fork over some cash for a new one. Which leads us to a new problem. The headlamp assembly's pretty tight, so we(Gil, Jon, Pablo, Edward) couldn't figure out how to openi it without smashing it. However, I NEEDED a headlamp bad, so Gil ripped out a foglamp from a nearby truck, and slapped it onto my bike.

Here's Gil helping with the "calibration".

As you can see, the "wiring" is really truly "intricate".

Anyway, fast forward to 7pm. Gil and I were waiting for Jon, a newbie to arrive. Edwin's already with us and was simply warming his engine up. Jon shows up at 7pm on the dot, apologizing, and blaming Saturday night traffic. So we head out to Jolilbee, to meet up with Ed, Cicero, and Jauhn who's coming from work.

Gil's Honda Steed, and my Yamaha Dragstar.

Jon's Honda "CB550-engine-in-a-CB750-frame" custom bike, and Edwin's Honda Steed.

All in a row.

Turns out, Ed's at a carshow in SM MOA, and Cicero can't make it. So the minute Jauhn came over, from work, we sped off to Macapagal, taking the quickest "cop-free" route to meet up with Ed.

Gil decided to do a quick "round-the-mall" run. Great idea. After scaring random children, and setting off car alarms with the roar of our engines, we decided to hang out at Cafe de Lipa in Petron. Turns out Gil frequents the joint to work his magic on a young waitress who works there. The fun never stops for Gil. Hehehehe.

Ah, there you go, better lighting...

Another angle...

"...Ooh...Shiny..."

Yes, our bikes are cam whores.

Meh. Shaky hands give a bit of a hazy effect.

I finally hung out with the NOS boys again. It's been so long. Plus I REALLY needed this rideout.
