"... W-what th-???..."
Took the bike for a spin today. Y'know just to warm up the engine, get the engine oil distributed, keep the fluids fresh, check for kinks, and of course, toy with Manila's finest and their 250cc "pursuit" bikes. I so thank the Lord that only 3% of PNP bike cops actually take the TMG riding course in Crame. At 15k per head, it's no surprise. The course is taught by Japanese bike cops. Those guys use 750cc Honda Deauvilles, and are known to use their bikes like 2-wheeled, 520 pound nightsticks. No kidding.
Anyway, after doing a quick run around Makati, I decided to end the night at a familiar place. When I got there, I found myself swinging out my sidestand, shutting my lights off, and killed the engine with one last rev to keep the engine warm. Looking up, I realized it was SHELL SELECT MAGALLANES. Immediately memories of years past flooded my mind. It was like diving head-first into a pool of Carl's Jr. gravy. Mmmmm... Grraaavvyyy...
I was promptly greeted by Mang Dani, the old chinese-looking guy who works the late shift. Sitting in my favorite spot, which is close to the iced tea machine, I can already hear the echoes of my buddies' laughter. Coy for his odd behavior, X,for always making a complete mess, the Chan bros; for singing like fools, Bren and Chebz for spacing out, Frades, for eating everything, and me, well, for no apparent reason really. Maybe cause I used to drive the parasites there all the damn time.
Oh boy! don't get me started on "Simbang Gabi" Especially when Flip was around. Damn, those were the days. I miss those days man. Back in highschool. The time when summers were sweet, the nights were longer, and the girls were easier-I mean hotter! Yea, that's it. Hotter. Hehehehehe. In highschool, your problems ended at 4pm on a Friday afternoon, and resumed Monday morning, at 8am sharp. Good times.
I oughtta hang with them again. I wonder who's birthday's up next?....
