was in an hp event last night -- the launch of its new business notebooks (on which they spilled water just to prove a point -- the damn laptops will still work!) -- where i had some very interesting chats/run-ins with different people. for posterity, i wanna post a few:
*scenario 1: julls, sean and i at the buffet table
julls (to me): hey, nice boots.
me: tnx.
sean: ano, nice boobs? eh wala naman ah! (mischievous smile)
*scenario 2: ron and i by one of the pillars at the ayala museum
me: bakit ayaw mong umupo dun with your beatmates?
ron: eh there's this girl who sat beside me, a girl i don't know. di ko gusto aura nya. alam mo yun, when someone you don't know sits beside you, it's ok. but this girl, it's not ok.
me: if you were a girl, you'd be a bitch.
ron: yeah, i'd be a female dog.
*scenario 3: ron and i by one of the cocktail tables
me: kuya, sya yun (referring to a person whose name my heart is screaming right now -- argh! cheesy!).
ron: hay, naku. umaalembong ka na naman! tigilan mo na nga yan, walang patutunguhan yan.
me: eh bat mo naman nasabi?
ron: kasi walang mangyayari dyan. di ba malabo sya? walang mangyayari hanggang di sya lumilinaw.
*scenario 4: jing, melvin, edwin and i around a cocktail table
jing: i like your boots. reminds me of...
me: porn?
jing: yeah. i'm a sucker for boots.
*scenario 5: jerry, mick and anna may seated by a cocktail table, while i was standing with ron by one of the ayala museum pillars
mick: yang notebook na yan (referring to the demo unit on which water was deliberately spilled) ang ibibigay sa raffle winner.
me: (LOL) baka yan ang mapunta sa yo. ok na ko, i don't need a new notebook yet. mine's still ok.
jerry: psssst! anong notebook mo?
me: talaga bang sutsutan ako?
anna may: bastos talaga nito.
jerry: nalimutan ko pangalan mo eh.
*scenario 6: a number of IT journalists standing around some cocktail tables, discussing ateneo's loss to ust at the uaap
someone i don't recall: atenista ka rin ba, riza? yan si april atenista din. (pause)
joel: may isa pang atenista dito (super pang-asar smile in place, places arm on erwin's shoulders)...
someone: (quoting erwin's post on the cyberpress mailing list) "oo na, talo na." feel na feel ang pagka-ateneo! (everyone laughs)
me: erwin, bat wala ka dun sa (adenauer) list of fellows? tiningnan ko, your name wasn't there. kasali ka ba talaga? (yeah, i'm that bitchy)
