4/28/13 - Iron Man 3 + Ram's despedida

My good friend Ramel is leaving for a job in New York this Wednesday and we decided to meet up and have dinner to celebrate.

Iron Man 3 was also released in theaters this week. Me and Nicolo watched the movie before going to the dinner. It's a good thing that we bought tickets in advance because there were too many people watching especially since it was the weekend. In fact, when it opened last Thursday, it scored the biggest opening day here in the Philippines, beating the previous record holder which was Spiderman 3.

The movie was quite good. I didn't think it was so great but it has its ups and downs. I'm glad Gwyneth was such a bad-ass in the movie and not some silly damsel in distress. The movie was over 2 hours long and some parts felt dragging but overall, I like this better than the 2nd movie.

We finished at around 7 pm and we headed straight to the venue which was at the Burger Bar which was in Greenbelt 2.

It was my first time to eat there but I have heard good things about the resto so I was very excited to eat there.

I ordered The Boss which was the one where I get to pick everything that goes in my burger such as the buns and the ingredients. I even get to name my burger. I expected them to shout my order when it's prepared but it turns out that they just use it when they deliver it to the table.

The place had a good ambience overall. It wasn't so hot even if we were under the aircon. I also wanted to try out some of their food but maybe that will come next time.

We moved on to Coffee Bean to grabbed some coffee and continue our chat, mostly about our past experiences in high school. We stayed there for a while until some of us had to go. We walked around until we settled in to Glorietta 3's Cucina Andare to kill time before going home. It was also my first time to be there even though I've seen the place every week because it was in front of my gym. I did not get to try any food because I was still full by that time.

I miss days like these where I hang out with friends. Work has been stressing me since I started and have taken away my social life, and it's not even that much. I don't know how long I could keep up with the lifestyle of working on weekends but I know it's not going to be forever with the type of job I have. I just hope my body won't give up on me.

I miss my friends and I hope I get to have more opportunities to spend time with them.
