the setup
hungry walruses @ sumo
the wacky couple, eric and mhin, asked me if there were any plans on the eve of benet's birthday. i told them that we don't have plans for her and the couple brewed an idea that we take her to a japanese resto for dinner.
and so i devised a sting operation.
i asked benet a favor to accompany me on a "client meeting" since we're going to meet on the same date. she inquired on the location and how i got the info. i told her that it's going to be the same place as the jammin' session few nights back and "the client" saw us taking some snaps that got interested and stumbled into this blog via google. that's the only viable reason since the japanese resto and the cafe are located in the same place.
she was convinced and took the bait.
after office, she picked me up and went to my place to grab some stuff for "the meeting." i called up eric/mhin to see where they were and told that they're struck in traffic. so i decided to delay my moves by slowing down. benet was ready to blow her fuse at that moment due to traffic and got tired from work. luckily, the couple got there on time...
...and she got surprised.

addendum:
treklens philippines interviewed and featured me this december as their "trekker of the month." following the ranks of manny librodo, alec tempongko, and jing magsaysay, it's such a great honor from you guys.
mabuhay!
