Daily: Wanted to go out… (1 Comment)
… And buy an EDGE cartridge for my DS Lite (or n5… Or whatever’s available, cheapest, and with good features). But I woke up late. My Mom and I had to organize all the stuff we left at the dining area.
It was getting annoying seeing all that stuff there blocking the way. 
As we were organizing, I saw some sketches that I got from our store room. I thought I should scan and put them in my dA scraps. I miss drawing. I also saw in the store room a lot of PS CD covers. I kept some of them for future reference/sketches. It’s about time I try the 
Attending art classes didn’t do me any good. I really need practice. Everyday practice. Anyway, with all that organizing, Mac and I had to cancel our plans.Time to blog about my Iloilo trip/Dinagyang Festival experience! Shiet, this is damn long overdue. I forget and I’m lazy. Sorry.
Yearbook shots were scheduled to be taken the morning before our flight. So I went to school first. I was so much in a hurry. I’m pretty sure my shots turn out bad and probably Photoshop wouldn’t do much.
Flight was around 2:30PM. I hanged out for a bit in the PAL Lounge. Ate a lot of sushi, took some drinks, and rushed off to the plane. I wore my sunglasses the whole time because I was afraid I looked like I was punched on both eyes with the thick make-up I was wearing. I didn’t get to wash it off because we had to hurry to the airport. I only got to remove my make-up after 2 hours trying to look for a decent and not-so-expensive hotel. My Dad had a reservation in some hotel, but I think whoever managed the reservations didn’t do a good job. They said his name wasn’t on the list. GRR~ It was tiring walking and having my huge bag. I felt uneasy with the make-up too. We ended up in an expensive hotel. We had no choice because even motels were full.
That night, before the dance contest, my Dad, me, and 2 of our hosts from the Mayor’s office accompanied us to dinner at a resto in a place I forgot. 
That place reminded me of Baywalk. Anyone from Iloilo might know what I’m talking about. There was a fireworks contest that night. It started at 8PM and lasted until 12MN. The first ones were alright. Nothing extravagant. But later on, the fireworks amazed me. They were all pretty. I recall that the grand price is something around PhP100,000 or more. Seeing the fireworks, I bet they all spent more than that.
