Today I went shopping at Megamall and attended the Madrigal Singers Batch '89 reunion concert at UP Diliman.
- I finally get to try out ordering a smoothie at Jamba Juice to see what's the craze all about. The Php135 for the Banana Berry smoothie may be a bit steep but considering all the fruits blended in and the size (16oz), I think it was worth it. (I had it with a coffee bun from from the Roti Mum shop a few doors down.)
- While waiting to meet up with Joel in UPD, I sat in the van munching on a Wendy's hamburger sandwich enjoying a carillon concert consisting of UP Naming Mahal and several other Filipino standards.
- Need I say it was great seeing and being with Joel again? And to echo his own words about the concert, it was something to cherish. I never thought I'd hear again those voices and that Madrigal Singers' sound that I so fondly remember and grew to love in the late 80's. It was also nice to know the backstories behind those signature songs of theirs. Sigh... the good ol' days.
