July 26. Right after the Lifehouse concert, we headed straight to Warehouse 135 for Carlo’s birthday bash. Carlo made my Sabiclub stint so much brighter and memorable. What started as a simple relationship went from a working relationship to great friendship. We used to have a lot of breakfasts together at work because we’re usually the first ones in the office. Either that or he lets me have all of his breakfast. Long has it’s been since the first time I met him and he turned me off with his smoking. He was turned off with the weird blush application on my face. Haha. Long were the days I’d get caught in the middle of crossfire between him and his ex, who’s also a good friend of mine. I love them both though.
Carlo’s girlfriend has pretty much won my heart too. Shiela is really a sweet girl. Don’t be fooled with her small frame because she is one tough cookie, having to travel all the time for her previous work.
The last time Chris and I bonded with Carlo and Shiela as a couple was during our trip almost a year ago to Subic. We stayed there for one night and went on a Zoobic Safari adventure the next day. I had so much fun bonding with another couple, who we can very much relate with. The next trip boiling with this couple might be an out-of-the-country thing, which will be very exciting!
When we arrived at Yakal Street by 1130pm, I was surprised to see the extra long line reminiscent of Embassy lines, or maybe longer, and apparently, there was only ONE line. No separate line for VIP/Guest as how Embassy does it. While Bubba parked the car, I sent an SMS to Carlo to check if we have to fall in line even if we’re on the guest list. To my relief, he said we didn’t have to any more. He met us at the door and the rain just poured.
The downpour and the busy Warehouse135 almost rained on Carlo’s parade, but it didn’t stop his friends from making it all better. By past midnight, the guests on the list are complete and the party heated up. Martin did his signature lights dance to everybody’s entertainment.

Gosh, how I miss the Sabiclub peeps!!! Camille is right. It is not friendship that we have created. We are already in fact, a family.
