2 hour glory
Listening to: Be like that - 3 Doors Down
Mood: groggy - just got up - to catch The Chamber
being a suck up for the right persons that i am, i agreed to attend the conference on ecotourism in Hilltop Villas, Mimosa Clark Airbase, on behalf of my Ecotourism class under Mr. Lazaro. He was giving me a ride to and from the event venue and will be paying for the registration of one student. i took Kitel Calapardo along for the ride. I also arranged all papers necessary for my absence from my afternoon classes (ie, excuse letter for my entrepreneur class and my part for my thesis)
We arrived in Clark at around 2. When we got to the registration, Kitel and i did all the sales talk we needed to get the two of us for the price of one... and to get a complete set (oh yes, even more for the entire class) of necessary freebies we could--- they said they ran out of the CD (i dont even have any idea of its contents), well, we talkd them into getting one for us.
So finally, after haggling for the contents of the kit, we finally got into the venue... 2 for the price of 1! when we got there, they just had their lunch, but the buffet table was still there, i sweetly (yes, sweetly) asked the young, good looking waiter if we needed to present some stub to be able to get food.. he said we didnt so kitel and i jumped on it! haha... .free lunch... yes there's such a thing as a free lunch.
we had our lunch in the dining area set outside- next to the driving range (golf)... it turns out that Ford hosts this PGA tour thing and there was a test driving for their new line Forum. u probably guessed it.... we took the car for a spin ... haha! in fact, according to this nice gentleman who was manning the booth. we took the car out of the Mimosa area in fact.. haha.. and i still dont have my license... but of course i never let the Ford people know that...
my dad has a car shop, so i know quite a lot about cars than an ordinary girl would do. so i was conversing cars w/the ford people, and sounded like i have an authority-- but in fact i was just carrying pretentious know-how... but the guy bought it.. il probably make a good review of the car... but not right now.
when we got back to the seminar, again, we ransacked the dessert table.. as in ransacked! we even asked a plate and fork and opened a platter of sealed cream puffs. it turns out everybody wanted those sweets but were too shy to ask... silly people! haha, but then we went for it... we chatted for a while w/ some PUP tourism majors - and told them about our misadventures! they were so envious.... npakapasaway ng mga taga UP!
a few mins into our chitchat, Carlo texts that he's already there (as i informed him about my presence in his hometown and asked if we could meet up).... and there, it was bye bye to the conference and hello to Holiday Inn. we had exactly 15 minutes together.. haha and one bottle of beer before mr. lazaro asks us to be ready because he was gonna pick us up... well, we had to gulp down the san mig light realy fast! haha.... neurotic!!!
will edit this post... gtg! the chamber on TV!
