3D EXPERIENCE

One saturday afternoon patrik and i planned to see a movie in astoria.. what i can remember is that the only movie worth watching is CORALINE.. a kid kind of movie but i have read from ads that it is fanatstically made.. so patrik looked it up in the computer and found out that it is shown in 3D.. so that made me jump for joy and excitement coz it would be my first time... and so as patrik.. :)patrik in 3D glassesmr. and mrs. smith

1-3-09 around 4 in the afternoon i finally met one of my closest friends from highschool named joni :) at pret a manger, near bryant park... i then introduced her to patrik... :) i also met her friend chona who is from cagayan de oro city and is living in jersey city...

the four of us walked to rockefeller center to meet people from cagayan de oro city "cagya-anons"..

joni grabbed a latte and chona had coffee.. well obviously to warm themselves.. :)

our plan was to go to queens at 69th street to watch a band.. so before that we had to stuff ourselves with some thai food.. and then we took the train at 57th-5ave to queens
surprisingly on our way to queens we found out that the lead vocalist of the band was our highschool classmate... :)what a small world after all..

and this is patrik enjoying the band.. you know what i mean
