and the weiner is...
"if you were to live you whole life again, what kind of hotdog would you be?"
haha! funny and disturbing at the same time.
"i am a jumbo hotdog with dinuguan bits, something odd, deviates from standard, defies all rules."
this was a question given to us yesterday when we had this focus group discussion about hotdogs. no more details will follow about the FGD because we swore not to tell anybody about the brainstorming. what i can publish on this blog is my misadventure for that day.
'twas the morning of yesterday, i still don't know how to get to valero tower in salcedo village (aside from taking a cab). my mom who used to be a makati girl herself gave me directions that morning but it really wasn't that clear. she gave me ladmarks during her time in makati that ain't there anymore! LOL i tried to call jason (a graduate of mapua makati) but no answer. he texted me hours later and it said "baba ka lang sa may shell makalapmas lang ng rcbc tower tapos from there, lakad ka na lang". too late, by the time i received his text, i was already a couple of blocks past mapua. whoopeedoo!
afarid of losing machismo by asking directions, i braved the unfamiliar concrete jungle and tried to remember (or at least be familiar of) the street names i pass. DE LA something, a street with letter T, another that starts with LEV, at last! VALERO street! the interviewer told me that the landmark is a chinabank and a starbucks so i scanned the area for those establishments. i think i've walked more than 1km before i saw "The Valero Tower" (guess what, no starbucks or chinabank!)
i arrived there just in time for the free obento lunch. YEY!
(insert 2 1/2 hours of GREEN brainstorming here) <--blame it on the rather green HOTDOG topic. what is a SATISFYING HOTDOG for you? JUMBO or FOOTLONG? LOL
after the session, i received the token of appreciation (a token i very much appreciated!) i rode the elevator down the building and walked back to where i came from. i decided to take a different route (im quite good at navigating). who cares if i get lost? i'm used to it anyway (remembering the LOST times with jl in luneta, la salle, fort bonifacio, nichols... and the list continues) and there are numerous cabs in route. well, i turned left at a corner with a coffee shop, turned right at a bank, went straight to a hotel-like building (the salcedo?) and through a foliage-rich-park. then i saw a food stand i quickly recognized as "jollyjeep". it's where me and my mapuan buddies ate lunch during the magic tournament in mapua (yup! i was successful in infiltrating mapua campus without id. how i did it? sheer luck!) from there, i was standing in front of mapua! oh yeah! from there, going home is a piece of hotdog, err... cake! so, i DO have a good sense of direction!
btw: funny, chevy rode the same bus i took. the look on the face of his friend when i flashed an FU sign on him. LOL! wala lang! it was very unlikely to bump into a close friend because that was one of the few times i schedule myslef to manila.
