The Pokemon Truck has arrived in Manila!
The LED Pop-up truck will be touring various malls in Luzon. The tour started this weekend at the Market! Market! Mall in BGC.
The truck has six Nintendo Switch 2 gaming stations, where fans could play Pokemon Pokopia and two other Nintendo games.
Fans could also enjoy the interactive Pokemon Pokopia photo zone and decorative wall, a coloring corner and a rest area.
Weekly, the truck will be roving around specific routes in Paranaque, Las Pinas, Muntinlupa and Cavite. In the weekends, the truck will anchor at locations for the full gaming experience.
During selected weekend sessions, fans may be treated to Pikachu mascot appearances!
The Pokemon Truck experience will run from October to January next year.
Anoche mi hija me llamรณ desde un Uber.
Eran casi las doce.
Su voz sonaba normal. Demasiado normal.
"Hola, papรก. Ya voy para la casa."
"Te acabo de mandar mi ubicaciรณn en vivo, ยฟla ves?"
"Uber blanco, placas tal. Llego en diez."
Yo no le habรญa pedido nada de eso.
Entonces entendรญ.
Me estaba hablando a mรญ.
Pero el mensaje era para el conductor.
Me quedรฉ en silencio, mirando el punto azul en el mapa.
Kung kailan naman may character development na si Erwan, pass na lang kay Anne =____= invested ako, wala eh si ultimate survivor yung kinanti ni starfish eh. Damay damay kayo. Meron pa bang ๐ต
I accidentally bought an extra blueberry muffin at this little coffee shop near my gym.
I was already halfway out the door when I noticed, so I handed it to this older guy sitting alone by the window.
Me: โThey gave me an extra. You want it?โ
Him: โYou sure?โ
Me: โYeah. Unless you wanna watch me eat two muffins before 9 a.m.โ
He laughed SO hard.
I figured that was it.
Next Tuesday, I walked into the same coffee shop and heard:
โAYYY, MUFFIN GIRL!โ
Sir???
Everybody turned around.
It was him.
He had a blueberry muffin sitting across from him.
Him: โGot you one this time.โ
So I sat down.
We talked for maybe 10 mins.
After that, it somehow became our Tuesday thing.
Every Tuesday at 8:30, he'd be at that same table.
Sometimes he'd already have my muffin.
Sometimes I'd bring his.
We talked about random stuff. Bad drivers. Grocery prices. His obsession with old movies.
Never anything super deep.
Then one Tuesday, he wasn't there.
Next Tuesday, same thing.
Third Tuesday, I finally asked the barista if she'd seen him.
She got quiet.
Barista: โYou don't know?โ
Me: โKnow what?โ
She told me he'd been having cancer treatments nearby.
Apparently, Tuesdays were his treatment days.
He'd started coming to the coffee shop afterward because he hated going straight home to an empty house. ...............
