personal account on SGIM Dayton
i would love to post about the concert happenings, but then not many can relate dahil hindi naman ito forums ni sarah. wehehe! ok, maybe i meant to say, not many might be interested since hindi naman lahat fans.... and if you guys want a detailed review, there's always the world wide web and mr. gugel to search articles with. =)
andami ko na daw talagang sinabi. hehehe! moving on... i'll just post my own adventures traveling alone sa Dayton.
huwebes
unang lapag ng salipaopao, wow, amoy Dayton! hehehe! dunno how to explain it, pero bawat state talaga may sariling amoy. or baka yung airport lang. but anyways, it feels good to be back dun sa suki kong airport around 4-5 years ago. hehehe! shempre, i know my way around kaya carry na ang pagkuha ng bagahe and stuff.
rental car, ok, i got a very cheapangga car... a chevy cobalt. no power windows, no power locks, no power side mirror adjustment, no power at all! ang bagal pramis! naiinip ako sa makina nya. anyways, nung lumabas na ko ng highway, medyo nanibago ako. yung mga under construction dati, gawa na ngayon... so imagine my reactions while driving:
- left or right?
- south or north?
- east or west?
- shoot, that's my exit!
- shet, walang u-turn!
- oh crap, one-way!
i made it in one piece sa hotel. mahirap talaga sa downtown, daming one-way! but i managed to find my way naman kahit papano. after checking in, bihis muna, pahinga, tulog, internet, then walkathon ako. i found out may Spaghetti Warehouse just a block away! sige, lakad! i got myself some pasta with shrimp and chicken, some salad and some sourdough bread with butter. talap! gusto ko sana i-dine in, but then, i was alone... ano ko, magtitip pa ko eh ako lang se-serve-an! so "to-go" ang drama ko. =P
daylight passed quickly dahil nakababad lang ako sa internet. i dropped by flowershops, walmarts, meijer. then around 9pm, pumunta ako kina ate malou. nakigulo ako sa kanila don, tagadikit ng sequins sa costumes ng dancers ni sarah, taga-ayos ng fruit tray, taga-chismis, basically. when it was time to go back sa hotel, susme, naligaw pa ko. ok, turn... i forgot if it should be left or right. and with my 50-50 chance of getting it right, i got it wrong pa. hehe!
biyernes
next day, dumaan lang sa flowershop, na sarado pa.. so diretso na ko sa airport. sinundo si Kuya Ton (NFF from sarah's website), at sila sarah mismo. homayghad! she's soooo pretty! nakaka-tomboy! hahaha! well, anyways, uneventful naman ang pagsundo, di naman ako naligaw pabalik. may mga mini-off-cam stories ako, but no-pwede share eh. (shoot me an email or leave a message here if you want some info, *wink wink*).
that afternoon, may meet and greet. grabe, pandemonium ha! sikat talaga si sarah, at ang lakas ng appeal nya sa mga tao, pinoy at kano, labu-labo na! hehehe! nakakapagod din, pero masaya. shempre, yung mga pasulyap-sulyap ni sarah, oks na ang pagod! hahaha!
that night, may dinaanan pa kaming store, bago kami bumalik sa hotel. ang masasabi ko lang, feeling close ako kay sarah dun sa store na yon, kasi nakausap ko sya ng matino, without shrieking or without jumping up and down. hehehe! the picture on the prior entry was taken there. kitams nyo naman, kalmado ako. hehehe!
sabado
concert day. jusko, di ko na alam kung anong nangyari sa oras. ang alam ko lang, nakakapagod! and to think na nag-a-assist lang ako non ha. what more sina haller at ate malou, na halos kung saan-saang lupalop na lang nagpupunta sa dami ng inaasikaso. mahirap pala maging production staff, pero masaya! i would do it again if given the chance! bukod sa backstage passes, you get to bump into the artists in their rollers, tshirts, etc... nakakatuwa. i guess if mareng tenten will put up an events organizing company, i will join her, provided na puro sarah concerts ang gagawin nya. hehehe!
the concert was a huuuuge success! shempre, may i sigaw ako for sarah, nasa front row pa ko non! and if you guys remember Agnes Lopez from UST-Commerce 2001, nasa likod ko lang sya! aba, sarah fan din pala sya! hehehe! marami-rami kaming game sumigaw sa side namin, kaya naman si sarah, panay din ang hinto sa harap namin. heheheh! jusme, talagang i shrieked like there's no tomorrow! hehehe!
after the concert, ayun, bumping into the artists ulet kasi autograph signing na. i get to congratulate sarah personally before she went out to go to the autograph signing session. also, i got a pic with sarah at naka-akbay ako! mej lang naman nawala ang poise ko, pero composed pa rin compared sa first encounter ko with her sa NJ. hehehe!
after the event, parang doon na bumaba yung energy level ko. i think it was only the adrenaline that sustained me through the night.
linggo
early morning, hinatid na namin sila sarah sa airport, may show sya that night sa Nevada. napakasipag na bata! so dito may moment na naman ako... yung signed CDs ko, dun sa airport nya pinirmahan, while waiting for her parents to check-in.
pagbalik namin ng hotel, naligo lang ako, then dumating na si oneal ni janey, at pumunta kami kina ate malou para dalhin yung ibang gamit na naiwan ng production team sa hotel. then punta kami ng resto to have lunch. after that, umalis na si oneal, at ako naman, nagpadrop-off na sa airport. sobrang kulang talaga sa oras! ni hindi ko na nga natawagan yung mga friendly friends ko na dapat ime-meet ko eh. sensya na talaga peeps, in case nababasa nyo to. hehehe!
on the side:
hayyyy, kabait na bata talaga ni sarah. hindi lang magalang na puro "po" at "opo", pero talagang mabait. at masarap syang kausap ha, in fairness, at walang ka-ere-ere! when you hang out with her, parang normal lang syang teenager, no star complex at all! at ang pretty nya sa personal. mas payat sya ngayon than the last time i saw her sa NJ, pero sexy pa rin. and man, when she did those dance numbers dun sa concert, it sealed the deal na die-hard fan na talaga ako... galing gumiling! facial expressions pa lang, tataob ka na sa tuwa! hehehe! ang nakakatuwa din kay sarah, thoughtful sya. you know, those little things that you won't expect from a superstar of her stature... no wonder people hold her dear, kasi ang bait-bait nya. =)
well, that pretty much sums up my adventures. i would love to spill more details... but to protect sarah and the production team, i can't. only trusted folks can get a hold of the complete list of events. hahaha! arrruuuuu, feeling! =P
as for the pics, i think i need to "watermark" them first since they are exclusive pics. whew! ganito pala pag shobiz! hehehe! i need to watermark the one i posted below actually. oh well, there's the weekend naman. =)
can't wait to see sarah again!!!! =D
