Star-filled Saturday!

Started out with watching Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events. It's a different kind of movie, if I may add. It is a "dark film" with queer sets. Making it an oddity and rather unique. Of the three lead child stars, the youngest was able to "steal" some scenes from Jim Carrey. Won't expound on it lest it may spoil your fun when you watch the movie.

While inside the movie house, I received a call from my niece inviting me to go with her and her friend to the Power Plant Mall, to which I acceded. Told them to pick me up at the Glorietta after the mass. (And you thought I would miss that? Nah-uh!)

So, what was the idea behind going to the Power Plant Mall on a Saturday? Shhh... a "little bird" tipped these two youngsters that their crush from the ABS-CBN stable of stars frequent the place. (LOL) Off we walk like ramp models from one side of the mall to the other, with eyes moving back and forth searching for a shadow of these stars.

My eye caught a good looking guy near the elevator and told these youngsters (jokingly) that I think I saw an actor nearby and pointed him to them. Lo and behold! He is indeed an actor... Dingdong Dantes! Guess the joke bounced back to me. hehehehe!

We also spent some time at the Power Station, an arcade inside the mall. We had a grand time there. There were also "stars" frequenting the place. We saw Ramon Christopher (with an unknown lady... chika!) and his sister, Jackie Lou Blanco. What really made our day is the funny incident at the arcade about the tickets and the arcade staff. (The "punchline" of what happened is more effective if narrated in Tagalog... ugh! And speaking of punchlines, why is it hard to deliver a joke in English? tsk! tsk!)

As to the reason why we were at the Power Plant Mall in the first place? Not a sign, not even a hair of their head! c",)
