A SWEET Day with Watthead - #FieldTrip2014 Diary

FAR FROM EXPECTATIONS.
That fragment summarizes everything we had yesterday, November 21, at our #FieldTrip2014. The title of this article, uhm, might give you an instinct that everything had been so sweet. Let us just see.

DEPARTURE FROM MITIS GOING TO SWEET FIELD TRIP, TAYTAY, RIZAL
It was already a morning full of fun. I always expected that bus rides will be the highlight of each trip because that will be the time that you can bond with everybody. And I wasn't wrong with that. It's so early, but the bus was already so active (wait in the evening)! We had this morning exercise, and everybody that were asked to dance in front danced, including I, who was called by Ms. Armie to dance with her. HAHA! I was still so easy and tamed during those times (until...).

The way we took was a bit familiar to me: Skyway, Magallanes, Ayala, Buendia, Guadalupe, Boni, Shaw Blvd., Ortigas, until it changed, and I don't know them anymore (from Robinsons Galleria, we went to Pasig-Rizal boundary).

Our bus was "star-studded." We had Allan (K.) and Lorna (Tolentino) with us! HAHAHAHA! Char. We learned some trivia from our tour guide (I forgot her name). 1st: SM Megamall is now the biggest mall in the Philippines, followed by SM North EDSA and SM Mall of Asia (I thought it's still SMNE). 2nd: There are no Mercury Drugs store inside SM malls because before, Mercury Drug's guard didn't allow Henry Sy to sell shoes in front of the store (very good observation, Miss). 3rd: The first SM mall was in Carriedo, but today, it is just the stock room.

Anyway, we had lots of stop-over because the kids keep peeing, and some vomited. Awwww. Poor kids. [But knowing the idea that we will be with them inside the bus is already exciting, to be honest. Even if some classmates have doubts about it, still, I enjoyed being with the kids. 💚 Plus tha fact that the "closest teachers" to me are there. Hihi.]

SWEET FIELD TRIP, TAYTAY, RIZAL
We arrived later than the expected time of arrival, but then, it seemed like it was okay because we even waited for the program to start.

To be honest, this site was so kid-ish. All I thought (based on Sir Pierre's story) that we will eat sweets. Well, yeah, we did: small cuts of pastries. Hahaha! T'was good, but I didn't buy because I know that I can look for them here in Manila. [I'm being bad. HAHAHA] It was a dull moment: from the JC Jem's Tour to the Bakerie Tour to the Puppet Show to the Pizza-Making Demo and to the Larong Lahi. In the JC Jem's, I was amazed with how they made all those wonderful decorations using bare hands! It was reasonable that they didn't allow us to take pictures (because we might reproduce those, according to them; similar with Peter Van Houten's response to Hazel Garce's e-mail to her about what happened on An Imperial Affliction---I'm applying The Fault in Our Stars here!!!) I really thought we will be eating a lot, but nah. As what Miss Yo said, we're too old for those [but we have to face our obligations].

WALLY WATTHEAD AND HIS LOST GLOW AT THE PETA THEATRE
Waiting for 1 1/2 hour is so...un-fabulous! We arrived here at 1:30, but our screening starts at 3! Sadly, we can't go anywhere since the itinerary that Sir Pierre prepared only mentioned two spots [but I think, there could be immediate changes with that]. I kept telling myself these times that I was so, very bored! We were hoping that the play will be worth it (because the Sweet Field Trip wasn't, to be honest).

After, we entered and got a tolerable spot. I was asking Athena on what was funny because the people were laughing at Watthead's deeds. I was amazed with how fast Watthead moved, not with the magic. [I personally turn down magic; for me, it's all with the speed and with the hands.]

We were so disappointed because Watthead was so pa-VIP. We weren't able to have a photo with him.

TRAVELLING BACK TO MITIS
It wasn't a blast-ful day, actually. The field trips before were even better. Those were our sentiments.

This was the "eating peak of Grade 8." We started eating chips and devouring them like there's no tomorrow.

But the boredom changed when the tour guide gave us glow sticks, a good beat of music, and a dark bus. WE STARTED PARTYING! That was indeed the best part of the trip. I was so overwhelmed with the support of the teachers and the kids, who even went at the back to really feel the vibes. I also have to admit that I was the wildest last night. We kept on pushing each other very bad while the bus was in slow motion because of the traffic. Everybody was shouting the words PARTY PARTY! Even commuters on the other lane saw us, and were laughing and dancing also! Hahaha! Indeed the best part of the trip [which gave me a headache and painful throat]. :)

We asked Tom for a picture~ I kept asking me if he's enjoy, then he smirks and say "Yes." Okay! HAHAHA
