Boys' night out

Last week, Lynn and I were talking about the previous night's Encantadia episode when she suddenly digressed:

Lynn: "Hey, do you know anyone who'd like to go to the FHM party next week? I have several extra tickets."

Me: (tries not to type "Are you fucking kidding me?!?" and break down) "Uhm, I might know some people who'd be interested."

So Frank, Ivan, JAm, Rico, and I were at the FHM party last night. Alekos was originally supposed to go, but yesterday he sent me a message: "Shit, ngayon ba yun? Sorry can't come, something came up."

Something came up? When I told the rest of the guys this, their reaction was: "Something came up? Baka someone came up! Kung sino man si someone na yun... sana sagutin si Leks."

So I had about a couple of hours to find a replacement. Should be easy enough right? I called Jonas, who was interested but already had plans. But he was with Po at that moment, so I talked to Po thinking he might be free.

Me: "Pare, gusto mong pumunta, FHM party mamaya?"

Po: "Saan yan, sa Fort di ba? Ayoko, ang layo eh."

Silly me, I thought Po wouldn't mind the distance to see half-naked women.

Anyway, I called up Rico, who lives all the way in Alabang, and within something like fifteen seconds he was on a bus to Makati.

At the event itself, we spent a few minutes around the booths outside, with JAm posing with a couple of girls:



Unfortunately, they didn't allow us to bring the camera inside for the event, so no more pictures.

The event was alright. As I always say, shows are always more fun when bold stars are involved. Angel Locsin was voted the sexiest woman (deservedly so). Too bad she didn't show up in her Darna costume.

Also making appearances were Aubrey Miles, Anna Leah Javier, Katrina Halili (who was surprisingly popular with the crowd), Katya Santos, and Francine Prieto, who inspired this exchange between me and JAm:

Me: "Lagi kong nakikita yan sa canteen eh."

JAm: "Ganyan din yung suot?"

Me: "Hinde, pero kumakain siya ng hotdog-on-stick."

Asia Agcaoili, who hosted the show, was either drunk or high (or both). Kjwan and Parokya also played. All in all, it was a good night.
