Still in relation with my previous topic/s (Curvy friend and Wedding song) This morning, me and my curvy friend look for "Rent-a Gown-Shop". She send me a link last night and upon checking the map, I find out that the shop is just near my place. So,with full confidence we headed to the said "shop" . We rode a public vehicle (no car this time- petrol is too high and we don't know the exact place (shop) I asked my friend if she had the exact address with her and she said, she only can only remember the street number (ok fine) I said- I can only remember the nearest landmark (ok fine again lols) In short- we both don't know the exact address or name of the shop By the help of "question and answer portion" with jeepney drivers and helpful co-passengers- we finally found the "shop" Goodness- if I have only known- the place is just 5 minutes drive from home Well- another experience- under the heat on scorching sun (duh!!!) Do you have same experience like this- looking for a place without exact address at hand (lols) It's kinda exciting ....We got a lovely yellow hibiscus as reward :p Good day everyone (^_^) jaiho®- had a fun fun experience today :p 4-19-2012 10:59pm Thursday PT

Wow where did you get that hibiscus flower, how I love to have hibiscus in my garden. Anyway Jai, Gosh! it's too hot outside I hope you have umbrella to protect you both. It happened to me once with my friend too we saw a site in the net, I actually printed out the map and the landmark and even the address but still we can't saw the place. I knew more places in your city I lived there for almost 20 years but sometimes too much road too much houses really confusing. But I never go looking for places without address in my hand haha.

shhhhhhhhhhhhh Yes, we saw that flower while trying to find our way to the service road. We did found the shop by the help of a good samaritan (tricycle driver) But we don't know the exit road going home (hahahaha) We just follow instruction from the tricycle driver who brought us to the shop and he give us the direction to service road. And on our way home we saw this inviting pretty flower waving us -hahahaa. Well, who knows, next time you will be here in metro city give us a message and we are too willing to meet you dear

hello lyn, It's really a lovely flower that this curvy lady cannot resist to pick the flower. Then, we hear someone's gate opened and we almost run for fear that we got caught looting that flower Good thing I bring umbrella with me and only uses flat shoes That was really fun experience for us- we will be having a date with another mylotter on Saturday. Wish you are just near so you can be with us

Hi Jai! Your story makes an interesting reading. If any shop address or its exact location is not known to me, I check thoroughly before proceeding. I do not like to waste my precious time in searching for an address. Pre-checks helps save time.

hello dpk, Well, that was a great experience for me and my curvy friend We did have a great time together- fun and thrill (lols) Of course, if going to far places, I make sure I had the right and exact address with me. But since the location is just near my place, I did not bother to check thinking my friend copied the exact address that she found :p have a good day

good news about the gown! and i hope it was a fun adventure getting lost. hehe i have my share of getting lost too. when i'm new in a certain area i take the aid of a map (if available). the most tiring experience of being lost happened when we were in hongkong. i have with me my bro, mom, sis-in-law and 3 kids in tow. i was not really used getting into a lot of trains (bullet trains and MTR) while getting to the 3 major islands of hongkong. and most street names there or areas sound the same to me. we had quite long walks while getting around precisely because we couldn't all fit in a single cab coz nobody else wants me out of their sight. hahaha i had the purse strings and the only roaming mobile fone. lol well the typical me is actually someone who would be lost in a big mall. that's why i'm not fond of shopping. and hongkong is one big shopping area. ughhh

I can't hardly imagine my bonita walking under the scorching sun of summer. Reddish chick untimely appeared while sweat sometimes run through your face..while anger (perhaps)erupted in your thoughts regretting why you go with your curvy friend with unclear destination... ( is this what you thought right?),,,no just kidding ..I know how kind you are in time like this..for humanitarian sake I once had an experienced like this but I never regretted it even a little grumble though we walked under the heat of the sun for about 2kms because the one with me at that time was my former GF which was at that time I was at the midst of my courtship.. Am sure you already passed that stage right? How I wish I could turn back the time.. Good night my dear bonita..see you on my dreams..not in a nightmare.. Mobhomeir here 041912

Ohh what happen to me right now bonita. You're wrong I couldn't really have a dream or even a nightmare even if I would be wishing you be in or not because I really couldn't sleep. I decided to sit here and write whatever I can think to write. I remember a while ago, I drunk two cups of coffee in a matter of two hours interval..oh boy..I hate it..have you experience this? I wish I would already be sleepy before 5am this morning.. Good morning bonita.. Mobhomeir here 042012 2:10am

dear Martin, I forgot about rashes- but yes, I had a cold bath (with ice) soon as I have rested. That was really fun- we're like kids who run away from home (lols) Uhmn- about your walking experience with your GF, I don't know if you will gonna believe or not- but, I never had any dating experience Not because my parents are strict- but because I am too lazy of going out for a date. I hope you won't be having nightmares to wish me being there

Dear sister, That was really funny dear. I am glad finally you got the shop and plus a reward, a yellow hibiscus. (Your friend is also wearing yellow dress). Tell you a secret about hibiscus, in our native, people mention about the hibiscus with mad people, when they want to say about getting mad feeling, they says, should wear a hibiscus in head or hair, the red one - (in our place ladies used to decorate their hair with different types of flowers but definitely not hibiscus).

dear sis Really- wearing red hibiscus means you are mad? hmm... Hibiscus is one of the common flowers in the neighborhood- but these days I seldom saw these plants here in the city so it's too exciting to see one. I like orchids and roses- but I haven't tried adorning my hair with flowers. I wear headbands- glittery ones and pretend I am a princess

hi jaiho oh yes years back my husb and and I went out into the Calofirnia countrysde delivering phone books.there were addresses but they were on mail boxed maybe a half mile to mile apart at these were farms.we found all but Joe Jones farm on half mile road. okay so we to half mile road and the mailboxes did not have numbers just names and some not that but we saw a man plowing a field close to the road.My husband and I walked over to him,He grinned when we told him we were looking for Joe Jones farm. "oh thats easy.next farm over.they have a sign over an archway to their private road. reads Keeping Up Witht the J. jones. We not only got the last phone book delivered we got to eat a home c ooked meal of friemd chicken , corn on the cob , and homemade icecream.Nice trade off for delivering their phone books.So we were rewarded too.

That was a funny experience certainly, let me share mine a few years ago, i was returning from Hyderabad from son's home, i got down from the ac coach at 11pm, i had lot of luggage, there were no kulis (who carry your goods from platform to auto ricksha, taxi cab)in the platform, so i rang a friend, who came helped me getting out and hired a ricksha for me, i told the driver to take me to barabazar, my home 3 milometer away, this fellow thought me to be a stranger and took me around the city, full 20 kilometers and dropped me in home asked 200 rupees as fare, i gave him 30 rupees, showed him the name plate that had my name; thanked him for the free city seeing.. so in our life such things do come at times.. Hugs from Dada

5 minutes from your home....LOL Kinda reminds me that the school where I study is reachable by 10 minutes of walking and I always get lost in my first 5 days of school. Kinda have the same experience when I am new in makati, I got lost in my first 3 days on my way at work. It took me a week to memorize the directions, Its nice that strangers still answer questions when you ask directions....people freak out with me,,,,LOL

Hi jai, As long as you enjoyed the trip... and got (looted) a gift.. no matter how long u were under the sun (taking in Vitamin D) LOL. oh yes.. many a times it had happened and very recently me & my colleague were lost the way though we had visited the place earlier and we took the wrong routes and finally we stopped the bike, had lemon juice (in this season you find lot of vendors selling lemon juice, mango juice, sugarcane juice etc in our city), then made a call from our cell phone to the person whom we need to meet and finally reached the destination.... I am sure, if i go again to that place, i will stop for the lemon juice as it was sooo coooool & tasty...and again make a call to find the right way...
