Brgy Maginhawa Artists vs. Team Manila Exhibit Launch
After attending Flippish.com's Launch Party at Fiamma (which warrants a separate post), a couple of us (Coy, Coy's brother, Paris, Fritz, Nan and Rick) went to check out the Brgy Maginhawa Artists vs. Team Manila Exhibit Launch at the Team Manila store, also located along Jupiter St., Makati. I felt the need to don a Sunday dress (with half of my back exposed though) that night, just because I needed to subdue the bitch in me. So, after I soaked up with orange vodka (I think, yes, I was that drunk or my memory's murky) from The Bar at Fiamma's, I again got drunk with Rhum Coke at the Team Manila event.
I saw a familiar face at the launch - my HS classmate and partner in crime, Chris.
Much to my chagrin, combining rhum and vodka on the same hour didn't cut it. I was still pleasantly sober after midnight, probably because they had the lights out and started playing danceable music. The appropriate response when that happens is to dance like an idiot there's no tomorrow. They say sweating and physical activity decrease your chances of getting zonked and I'm not sure if being sober worked entirely in my favor that night.
Rhum coooooke!
See, I stayed and partied the whole night out with this guy, Rick Manzano. I really esteem him for his photography, but I cannot do the same for his alcohol tolerance. He was so pissed-drunk, he was surprised he had this conversation:
Rick's friend: Rick, pinamimigay mo na lang raw ang camera mo ah! (Rick, you're giving away your camera?
Rick: I KNOW, RIGHT!?
So, I had to lug around a hundred-and-eighty-pound man along Jupiter St. in search for some Mcdonald's. To accomplish that feat, I had to remove my strappy two-inch heels and walk barefoot - with a drunk man. AT LEAST NOW I KNOW HOW MY FRIENDS FELT. LOL!

Also, sorry for not posting photos from the exhibit. I'll steal some from Rick and post it here!
