One of his personal favorites is the one from Banff, Canada, a world famous resort town flanked on all sides by Alberta's Rocky Mountains. While visiting his sister in Calgary, B stumbled upon HRC Banff on one of their outings, which to him was one pleasant discovery.
B's HRC shot glass collection grew bigger thanks to friends, family and colleagues who, when traveling, will get him one as a memento of their trip. It got to a point where he no longer had to remind people that "Hey, don't forget to bring home a shot glass for me". Whenever someone goes traveling, he or she would automatically get B his shot glass. The mere mention of shot glass immediately turns to B; it's almost as if they covet to be in his display!
Many people I know are in his collection. Zeff, Izzat, Sher, Qadir, Aireen are already holding their respective spots. Even my friends like Emily Chong, RajMo, Intan, Shyamala, Zulman and Raimy are in there somewhere - everyone but ME! Feeling left out just makes me more adamant about having a spot in his prized display.
Our recent visit to Tokyo saw me hell-bent on securing my spot with a HRC Tokyo shot glass. We visited HRC twice, but both times I was too excited and engrossed in other merchandise items to remember my "mission". In the end, B selected and paid for his own shot glass! Imagine my dismay when I realized I missed a huge opportunity to be in his collection. As disappointed as I was by my own lack of attention, I still insisted that the Tokyo glass bores my signature since I was there when he made his purchase - I just didn't make the actual transaction! Nonetheless, we both know that's not really the case.
