In my previous blogs, I mentioned that I wanted to stroll at downtown because I haven't done that for a while now. Unfortunately, I got sick and I have to be absent at work. Supposedly, I would go to the company's clinic for my checkup but the Doctor wasn't around already since I've called in late that day. However, since I was already dressed, the couple in my room suggested that we should just eat outside and have a stroll at the mall.
For today's blog, I'm going to share our adventure because it made me feel good and was somehow revitalized since I have been able to breathe outside of my room.
There's a short walk whenever we go somewhere outside the residence and we often passed by this new commercial building here in this street. It's for apartment rentals, beauty clinic, travel & tours office and a hardware store beside them. If I can meet the owner of this building, I would have thank them in person for hanging some lanterns above the tree in front of it.
There isn't much light post in the area and it's dark at night. As you could see, their building is the only thing that's lighting up the street. It's good that they have installed some lights on the tree, and that's quite a good tactic. It looks aesthetically pleasing aligned with the motif of the building, but at the same time serving it's purpose to illuminate the area. That's why, I always look at it whenever I walked by.
It was almost 8:00 pm when we got here at the mall, so we walked straight to the food chain where we wanted to eat dinner. It has been almost 2 months that I haven't been here since I just focused on my work and studies recently. There wasn't much changes, though and it's not that lively like before. I guess, maybe it's because we came here late at night and the mall will be closing in the next few hours.
Ribshack is often crowded with customers, so before we choose and pay our orders, we secure our seats and table first.
The couple have asked where to eat and I suggested this place. They often go with Jolibee, but I don't like eating chicken that often. For a change, I introduced them here and convinced them with the unlimited rice. Of course, RICE is life, and so, they agreed instantly.
They decided to try what can satisfy my taste buds, so we bought the same foods. It was a piece of spareribs with atsara as appetizer and unlimited rice.
It was a delightful feast! After that, I'm proud to say that I have improvements in my appetite. I ate 3 cups of rice without vomiting thereafter. If I wasn't so full, I would still eat more since I still have grilled porks left in my plate but my tummy is giving up already. 馃槅馃う
The staff were cleaning the other tables already since we're only few customers left inside. We decided to go out and have some stroll to digest what we ate before going home.
Before we forgot anything else, we bought our roommate's request for takeout. She wanted the Chao Fan with Spicy Wontons from Chowking.
If you can notice below, there wasn't any people there, but here we are still walking around just to digest every food we ate because we couldn't breath properly from being too full. We walked around the North Wing and up to the SMX Convention, then went down just to go up again, anywhere for few minutes as long as we can digest a little and make our chest lighter. 馃槄馃う
By the way, that snake is cute, though. I approach it's little house below and found Plum Blossoms with red packets and horoscope signs hanging on it.
Sometimes, I'm just so random like this time. I joked if we can take one of the packets 'cause I'm wondering if it have money inside. Then, out of the blue when we turn around, one of my friend really did check that for me. LOL. And, of course, it's empty and just for display. It's hard to laugh and breath if you're too full, you know.
Anyway, we're just fooling around to kill some time there. Upong seeing that some chains have been closing one by one, we hurried back to the South Wing and exit on the Supermarket. It was a night, indeed. I'm glad these two took me out for a while. For a moment, I forgot that I was sick.
