I finally got a decent nights (days) sleep last night (day). I think it was the combination of the exercise, beer, and food before bed. They say you shouldn't eat before bed, but I actually slept for the first time since I've been here.
I don't know much about the nightlife here in Manila because I'm working, but the place seems pretty hoppin' while I'm driving to work at 10:30 at night. There are a lot of clubs and people out and about, even during the week. I have yet to see what the weekend is like here. Though I will very soon. I'm told that we have a whole weekend of plans. We're leaving work early Friday night/Saturday morning and heading out to breakfast and a volcano? I don't know the name, so I'll have to fill you in on more details. Then there's going to be a club where a band is playing and a restaurant where you cook your own food. I'm told we're going straight through the weekend with no sleep...
When I head down to the lobby of the hotel, there's been a band playing every night. The lobby is huge and is actually two floors with four restaurants, shops, and a large loungish area towards the back which is where the band is. You can either sit in the lounge area with plush seating or you can see the band from the second level which also has plush seating. The band plays everything, but mostly classic American hits. Last night I heard them playing Patsy Cline's "Crazy."
I am still really disoriented by the time here. For the first few nights I kept thinking to myself how weird it was that they have a band playing every morning... I actually said it to my coworker. The words no more than left my lips when I realized my stupidity. Yet again this morning (night), I turned the TV on while I was getting ready for work. There was some crazy movie on HBO with Kiefer Sutherland where the mirrors are attacking and killing everyone. I thought to myself how weird it was to be playing scary movies in the morning... Yes, I am a genius.
BUT... Have you ever seen someone make a bathrobe look this good? ;)
