Excitement.
JUST A FEW hours ago, I was at the mall with my family to hear mass and to dine. What a unique way to spend a family day! Anyway, Alabang Town Center was the place to be. I never really liked hanging out in that mall. The ambiance there is surely swell but the stores there are too few to notice. And I remember a year ago, when I used to frequent there, a lot of orientals were around that place. I am not kidding. The place is practically a Korean Embassy or some shit. That’s why I stopped going to that Zerg-infested place.
Until recently, I kinda felt like visiting that mall in a greater frequency because of some reasons. New stores that I like opened and they renovated the center part of the mall. Now, there isn’t a big nipple protruding in the middle of the plaza. Aloha Boardsports opened and it’s usually the first store I visit when I arrive at the mall. I bum there quite a lot, actually. The store is pretty small and cozy with truckloads of boards hanging and displayed on one side of the wall. And the shoes that they sell, for Brod. Pete’s sake, don’t get me started on those. I swear to God, don’t.
Another reason is that the probability of seeing someone familiar there is Rosie O’Donnell huge. Like awhile ago, I saw Rabeh Al-Hussaini of the Ateneo Blue Eagles. I’m not quite sure if it is him. Or maybe it’s just some random half-Arab half-Filipino guy who is about 6’5” tall. What do you think? Anyway, I’m quite amused when I’m around the mall. I have to let you in on a secret, too. It’s quite hard to notice other people when you have a single person in mind, all the time. You know that feeling that when the person you really really admire and like can be just around the area and you guys knew each other because you met in a party or in an internet realm or shit, then automagically, you think that person is just right behind you or something? I mean, it happened to me awhile ago and a week ago. I was sort of expecting to see someone that tickles my fancy. I mean, the probability of seeing and meeting someone is huge yet little. I don’t know. Weird shit if you ask me. And if I do see that person, I’m going to breathe heavily (because I’m a shy bitch like that) and decide whether I say ‘hello’ or pretend that I didn’t see her. People mistaken me being a snobby snot because of the latter part but truth be told, it’s bull.
I’m quite the shy type. Awkward at times, too. But only when I feel like it, though. There are times that I feel like I can do anything, like, crush the head of a rabid bear in between my tree-like thighs or shit like that. Only when I’m in the mood to do it. Trust me, there is like a time for everything, including moods. I can’t seem to comprehend why.
Anyway, I’m quite excited for the next post. Couldn’t post the shit now (or yesterday) because I wasn’t really in the mood to do so. School gets me in the mood to do some writing shit. I have the faintest idea on why. I’m a flitty man with short attention span, if you have any idea.
