All of us don't know how to go to that place even if we have the map. haha!
I'm with R.A., Jensen, Lai, Roxanne, Pamela, Melissa and Jena. We rode a jeepney with a Mabini St. signboard. We told the driver that we are going to Palacio de Manila. And so, we are now relaxed. But later on, a guy passenger asked where are we going. He looked at the map and he said, "lampas na kayo". And so we immediately went down.
Lai asked one of the residents in that place if we are going the right direction. An adventure passed by and its passenger is also asking for the location of Palacio de Manila. She said that she's a parent of a 3rd year, the one who's organizing the convention and told us that why don't we hitch on her car. We don't believe her at first but then she showed to us a proof that she's really going to Palacio de Manila and so we hitched on her car.
Finally, after 10 years, we arrived at Palacio de Manila. Upon seeing the place, we were like so disappointed.
It's not as big as a hotel. It's a big tent. haha! But it's nice. the venue is spacious and occupied all of us.On the registration booth, there were men who were like robots. Like, those what you see along Baywalk, the statues that move if you drop coins. Yeah, you know that?! Oh yeah..
Unfortunately, very unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to take a picture with those guys 'cause everyone's taking pictures with them and I don't want to join them! LOL! I want a solo picture with them. haha!
It is supposed to start by 12:00 noon but it started at around 1:00 pm. Superr Filipino time! But while waiting, there were these two little creatures walking along. haha! And I had the chance to have a picture with them! Yeah!
At last, the convention started. And it's superr bowwiing!
YEAH! The speakers were like talking and talking and talking in front! Damn! We were all hungryyy!!!! 
Until this ice breaker came, the Salinggawi dancers had and intermission number! We were all souting woooh.. yeeahhh! The crowd was alive again! haha!Yeah, it's eating time! It's a buffet so we need to stand up and walk to the table, fall in line, before we can eat. hmf! I got a lot of spagetti! Yee! And a big slice of chicken full of gravy, two sandwiches with err spread and a tiny custard cake. Yum!
While we were eating, these two gay stand up comedians working in Zirko, Clownz and Library came up stage. They are Vivora and Ador.They are really amzing comedians. We were laughing and laughing from the start of their performance 'til the end. hahahaha!
Mayor Alfredo Lim is also present and he also had a speech but yeah, I didn't care to listen. haha! Sadly, I missed the chance to have picture with him and also with the stand up comedians because they immediately went out.
Oh, there's also a raffle but I didn't won. I want that flash disk! hmf! But we were all given souvenirs, a bag full of scraps.. haha! I mean, full of brochures.. and a pen! haha!
What else?! ..no more! haha! It's around 6 pm then and I was looking for my classmates who's route is to España because I'm living in España. I found Shaine, Monica, Jensen and Noriel. We rode a taxi then. We of course had picture takings inside the taxi. haha!
Whew! It's tiring but it's fun. At last I arrived in the dormitory.
After I changed close, Ate Karen, my room mate was having a movie marathon. haha! She decided to watch the movie Lolita because I was there. haha!
For all those who doesn't know this thing, Lolita is a novel witten by Vlasimir Nabokov. I've been reading that book since last month but I haven't finished it yet because of my superr bussy schedule. Oh well, gladly, Ate Karen has a CD of that movie so we watched it. The movie is in French but it has a subtitle in English.
It's around 10:30 when the movie ended. It's a touching story. Yeah, I'm recommending you to read the novel and watch the movie. Even though I already watched the movie and know the story, I would till like to finish the book because it is better if I'll read the book.
Oh yeah, it's long post again. haha! Madaldal talaga ako.. *wink*
