Bobby Novenario

Aug 15, 2009

While having breakfast at the hotel, before going to the convention center, there was a guy who stopped by our table. I was currently alone, because Aby got fruits. The guy was Bobby Novenario.

Bobby: Pilipina ka?

Raffy: (thinking...) Opo.

Bobby: Ang ganda mo naman!

Raffy: Salamat po..

Bobby: Kilala mo si Perla?

Raffy: Hindi po.

Bobby: Siya yung nanalong Miss Universe dito!

Raffy: Di ko po siya kilala eh.

Bobby: Manager ko siya sa isa kong tindahan, siya yung nanalong Miss gay Universe dito sa Bangkok.

Raffy: Ahhh.. Taray!

(Aby arrives with a plate of fruits and 2 glasses of fruit juices. Hay salamat! ahahahahahahaha)

Raffy: Aby, siya si Bobby Novenario. Meron siyang store sa Glorietta 5.

Aby: Hello po! I'm Aby!

Bobby: Anong ginagwa nyo dito? Buying?

Raffy: Hindi po, exhibitor po kami sa Bangkok Int'l Fashion Fair.

Bobby: Ahh galing na kami dun! Walang magaganda! Anong company nyo?

Raffy: Karimdon po.

Bobby: Ay kilala ko si Josie (our boss)

Raffy: Ahhh opo.

To end the awkward conversation.

Raffy: ( Handing over my camera to Aby) Aby picturan mo kami.

Click!



Bobby: Kami naman. ( going to Aby)

Raffy: (Wow ah??) Gow!

Click!



Share ko lang!

Iced Chocolate

Aug 14, 2009

11:00 pm

Aby and I never had dinner this night because we were still so full from the super late lunch we had earlier. Around 11pm, we were craving for a large iced chocolate drink we've been having form Dunkin Donuts at the convention center. We decided to go to the near Dunkin Donuts just outside our hotel. When we got down the lobby, there were a lot of men in suits. (parang men in black!) They even let us use the staff elevator, parang to make us hurry. (weird!) When we got out of the hotel, there were even more people! They were all lined up as if waiting for someone to go out. Eh nakakahiya, nakapantulog na kami ni Aby, tapos wala na kaming make-uo and ang gulo-gulo na ng hair ko! ahahahahahaha Super bagal pa naman namin maglakad, and they were all looking at the two of us na. I even checked my backe to see who they were waiting for. Eh wala naman! I even asked these three hotel people to take their picture, as we passed by them. ( as if we weren't already taking that long to get out of the way, I even asked for a photo! ahahahahaha)



So we went to Dunkin Donuts na, hoping that it's still open at this time. (mga 11:15pm na) We also noticed that there were a lot of vehicles lined up outside the hotel. Even these buses reached up to the building of the Dunkin Donuts we were going to! Ano bang meron??? When we got there they said, they're closwsing early. Awwww... Kainis! (meron talagang something...) Aby thought we just go to the 711 on the other street, in front of the hotel. I'm sure merong chocolate drink dun!



This street is always filled with stalls, especially at night. A a tuktuk couldn't even get through.



Surprisingly, that night, it was super clear!!! Only the stalls on the sidewalk were left. Ang luwag! nakakatuwa! ahahahahahaha



Success! We already bought our large iced chocolate drinks from 711 (which tasted the same as the drink from Dunkin Donuts!) and we got some chips. As we near the hotel, the vehicles that were parked started to move.



After crossing the street and as we stood besdide the swarm of people waving goodbye to the cars and buses leaving, I asked the hotel person beside me who it was that left. He said, "The Prime Minister."

Wahahahahhahahaha Kaya pala kami minamadali nung mga tao kasi ang dugyot namin tignan, and any moment lalabas na pala yung Prime Minister who had dinner in our hotel! Super picture pa naman ako, not caring what was happening! ahahahahahahaha Di naman kasi nila sinabi eh!!

KFC

Aug 14, 2009

We had a really really late lunch almost early dinner today. We already ate at 5 in the afternoon. We weren't that hungry from the super heavy breakfast we had this morning, plus we had to mend the booth the whole day. For lunch, we decided to go for fastfood again, KFC! :) We were both asking for the original recipe chicken., but they did not have any! All the chicken on their menu are spicy!! Nakakaloka! We were trying to stay away from spicy food that day because we were already having stomach aches from all the spicy food we've been having since we arrived. Since we were already hungry we just ordered what was there! haha

Here's what I had-a Zinger burger and 5 pcs of mini chilli wings. The Zinger wasn't that hot, and was surprisingly good with all the veggies. But the chilli wings, however, we heard were the spiciest on the menu! OHMYGUARD! It was tasty but when the spicy kicks in, even an ice filled drink could not help! Don't worry, I survived! hahahaha

Here's Aby's meal-2 pcs chicken and fish fingers. The Chicken was really good, and like the Zinger, wasn't that spicy. The fish fingers were also good with the dill dip.

Thai Massage

So after a long tiring day, it would be just suiting to reward our exhausted bodies to a massage, an authentic Thai massage if you will!

Just outside our hotel, a number of massage parlors are lined up on the street, so it's just a matter of picking where to get ours.

After changing into the pajama massage outfits!





OHMYGUARD!!!! It was definitely an experience worth trying!! I didn't know that the authentic Thai massage is a dry massage. But you can still ask them to put oil, but I had to experience the real thing! Well it was surely a very hard massage, so hard that I was already making soft noises with all the pushing and pulling! Ahahahahahaha It was painful a number of times, but I never asked the masseus to stop, coz I think my aching body needs it.



These are our massage therapists. Didn't get their names though. The one on the left was mine and the other was Aby's-she was talking the whole time! Mej nakakairita, when you wanted to relax! Anyway...


My masseus looks like Jinkee Pcquiao noh?? Wahahahahahaha
