I’m just happy with how things are going for us in making new Filipino friends in Melbourne. Last Friday, the usual gang and I decided to have a night out at TGI Friday’s at the Jam Factory in South Yarra. Not only that, but we were joined by five new people, too.
We had some trouble getting seats when we got to TGIF but after an hour of waiting, we finally got the seats we supposedly had reserved. It was okay though. We spend the time waiting getting to know the new people and catching up with the rest.
We spent the whole night swapping stories. We even continued the story swapping even after we wore out our welcome at TGIF by dropping by a cafe afterwards. The only reason we decided to call it a night was because it was getting too late. The others needed to catch a train back to the city so they had to leave before the train service ends for the night.
It was a fun night. We’re already talking about going out for ten-pin bowling or a night at the movies this coming Friday. There’s also talk about going on a road trip to the Great Ocean Road this long weekend. I’d give the bowling or the movie night a go but we’ll probably skip on the road trip for now.
