Entry: Star Struck! Wednesday, February 04, 2009




"In three words I can sum up everything
    I've learned about life: it goes on."

                            - Robert Frost


Writing as they say helps a person reflect on things.
But this isn't writing.
It's blogging. Hohoho.

Since I have took a class in Repertory Philippines,
I never understood why my veteran theater friends feel so awed
to see Lea Salonga.
But now, I understand, thanks to ValCon.:D

I had an interview today with David M. Consunji.
I was so calm and nonchalant upon arriving at the DMCI office.
I was even wiping my sweat from the walk I took from the MRT station. Haha.
(I thought it was very very near. Haha.)
My thought was apparently not reality.

But, OMG. Val, hahaha.
I just realized that I was really really "star struck" with your grandpapa!
It sounds silly of me but.. Haha.
I nearly bursted down into tears when I saw him.
Ganun pala yung feeling!
I have to even recompose myself in a split
second to say who I was, as he was asking my name.

I think this has just marked one instant in my life
that I would never ever ever forget.
It was something.

In one part of the talk,
he asked me if I was feeling the need of CHANGE.
Of course I was!
People who knows me knows that
I often talk about change and ways how to do it!

But when we talked about the topic..
I felt my head starting to disappear.
Like.. "..."
(Nice one Sunshine.)
I just nodded and said, "Yes, CHANGE."
I'm such a loser. Hohoho.-_-

People that day commonly mistook me as a journalist. Haha.
I am so not civil engineering material.
How can I get myself hired if I don't look the part! Hahaha.
So wrong.
That's why I asked for a picture with him.:D
I told him I'll show this pciture when I'll be applying for a job.:D

   
                            DM and Me

People calling him DM makes me feel he's part of a mafia gang.
"Psst.. Pinapatawag ka ni DM."
See what I mean?

I asked DM what was his greatest achievement in life.
He smikred and replied, "Making my wife happy."
Hihi.
He's such a jolly person. Very grandpapa like.:D
(I miss my grandpa. RIP.:))
I was also lucky to meet Mrs. DM.:D
Both were live and kicking at 87 and 85 respectively.

Although I'd love to share more,
 I have to stop since I think my typing looks long now.

I can't believe I was seeing DM for REAL.
It marked to me that he was indeed a LEGEND of his own.
Thank you thank you Val for that experience. :)
