Eat Bulaga!

Saturday, November 26, 2005...we went to Broadway Centrum and lined up along with the crowd of people. We are about to watch Eat Bulaga! We both are getting impatient (we hate waiting in line. LOL!). Mama and her friend came along with us.

As the line were moving along...male and female had to line up separately. The male's line was moving faster than the female's. No foods, drinks & cellphones are allowed inside...not even a single candy!!! And I brought with me some Swoops, which my Pineapple brought for me. Ofcourse, I had to leave that outside. I told the guard that he can have it. He said, "No, I'll save it for you." So we finally went inside. Because we were with a foreigner, some guy wants us to sit near the stage. But some people had already sat on his reserved seats. So we were left sitting by the back seats...which was fine (if only I could see what was going on down by the stage). Pineapple was having fun, we were having fun...making the most out of the sucky view I was having.

We went there because he wanted to see Jopay of the Sexbomb Girls. But she was absent that day. Luckily, he did find someone else to replace Jopay...Julia Clarete. He had been taking videos of her while they were doing Laban o Bawi...wide shots, close ups. My Pineapple had lots of fun there. I translated to english the questions for the K.O. contest. Also for the Laban o Bawi questions. He was making the "L" sign and got him self on TV....a lot of times. The only down side was that we got hungry. We were not allowed to go out of the studio until the program was totally finished.

That day was a fun day. He had been listening to "Manila Girl" song when he was in the States. That day, he got to see the Put3ska singer...that came as a surprise to us. And then after the show we had to pick up our cellphones. The guard didn't eat the Swoops (and so we thought). When we got back to the hotel and when I decided to finally taste one of those...we found out the Swoops was already open and was missing one chocolate (there's like 4 Swoops inside. LOL!). We just laughed it off...

Our First Time!

November 25, 2005...10:50 a.m. Manila time... Korean Air flight#621 arrived in Ninoy Aquino International Airport. Darling went and picked up my Pineapple. After picking him up at the airport, they went straight to Oxford Suites Hotel in Makati City to check in. After that they went out to eat at Shakey's before they went to my work in Annapolis, Greenhills. They rode the MRT and a jeepney on their way to my office. (And we haven't even tried riding a jeepney together yet. Next time we will, for sure, for sure!)





I waited for hours for them to arrive at my work but they finally got there at around 4 p.m. already. Whew! Thank goodness my Pineapple didn't see me do my lecture in front, or else I would be all over the place. My heart was already beating so fast while I was doing my lecture and looking to see who were coming in our front door. Darling peeped inside first...then I saw him...my Pineapple King! As you can see in this picture we were kissing...our very first kiss! But before that we were hugging so long. He even whispered to me, "I don't want to let go.". We didn't even care if there were a lot of people around looking at us. Everyone were so "kilig" watching us see each other for the first time. I got weepy while I was in his arms. (How I miss being in his arms...) One of the stuff we've been wanting to do was go to 7 Eleven together. We finally got to do that...many times!!! LOL! And so, after I am off from work, we all went to my house to pick up my stuff. He met my mom, my sisters, one of my aunt and some of my little cousins. Then, we hurriedly went back to Oxford to relax a bit before heading out again to go have a nice night out...as if we weren't so tired already--him, from traveling almost 24 hours and me from working for 11 hours.

After we both were ready we all went out to have dinner at McDonald's. Then ofcourse the expected happens...darn taxi drivers not wanting to use their meters because they see white guy wanting to ride their taxis. Dollar signs starts flashing in their eyes...luckily we did find someone who was honest and used his meter. We went to Malate that first night he was here...and found ourselves going inside Tia Maria's. On our way in, we almost got puked at by some really drunk guy. Yucky!!! Almost got my shoes puked at. (Here are just some of the pictures we had on our very first night out together...)
