Laughter can kill

YAY! What's with today? Hmmmm...

Sir Ray Acedera was surprisingly early today! He arrived BEFORE 8:30, far from the usual 9:30 arrival. But I'm glad he did coz I super enjoyed the class discussion on 'Pacquiao' as a brand itself. It is so amazing when you see marketing in action. It's geeky cool and I totally love it. When you think about it, there is nothing new in marketing, really. There are only new ways to use the same details, frameworks and information. That's where the excitement comes.

Anyhooo, today we presented our brand introductions to the class. I am part of Team Head & Shoulders. Dianne and I were reporting and I was suuuuper kaduper nervous when Sir Ray was shuffling the papers. Our (friendly) competitor Clear was chosen to present first. Long story short, our team presented fourth and we were amazed on how active the class was in particiating. In the previous groups, Sir had to call a specific person to encourage class inputs but this one? Na-uh! Hands started to rocket up in the air, all eager to be given that precious chance (limited slots only!) of voicing your questions or comments to the reporting group. It was a very rewarding presentation, knowing that everyone in Team H&S really contributed to the paper and report. We've also hit certain issues that Sir Ray was hoping to hear. Farrah, don't be sad. Alam mo deep inside sabi ko talaga 'SHET BAWAL MAPAHIYA, KILALA NI SIR SI FA. GALINGAN NATIN FOR FA.' Naks, driving force ka na pala ngayon Mare! hahahahaha And! I must write in history...that after we presented (before questions were entertained) Sir said very good...TWICE. yehey! Don't get me wrong. I love the Clear group. And I totally believe it is a healthy competition. hurray!

Consumer behavior- We discussed the relationship of colors to personalities. Ms. Gamo asked us to think of certain products that are associated with colors. So people started enumerating blue water, green meadows (?). Aldren and I looked at each other and said 'napaka literal naman ng mga examples nilaaa'. So next color was brown...we suggested Brown wood, brown soil, everything colored brown. Then we'd laugh hard. Then Ms. Gamo says 'How about white?' I whispered to Aldren 'WHITE FLOWER.' (yung pang nahihilo) HE LAUGHED SO HARD FEELING KO NAGSCANDALO KAMI. HAHAHAHA.

Next! 190 class! OMG isa pa toh naloka ako! Sir Ilano (yuuuki!) At the end of the class, he announced he'll meet us next Thursday na so that's two meetings- eight days of no Sir Art Ilano. He said 'I'll see you Thursday!' Fa, Dianne and I replied 'AWWWWW with giggly laughs and he looked at us and said 'that's the right way to answer!' HAHAHAHA If only he knew we meant it by heart. hahaha And the 'awwww' wasn't planned ah! Each of us just felt the same way. shucks, nakakahiya. Pero keri lang. hahahaha

After classes, I had HR meetings and some catching up with friends Raish, Andy, and Caloi. Fa and i left for Trinoma for window shopping (wala kaming pera). We were actually hoping we could find feasib ideas while people watching. Well, we ended up trying the shoes at Zara, searched for a panda and shark stuffed toys, whatever good bargain we can find. We ended up purchasing a yummy baby back ribs meal at Kenny Rogers. Ayun, enjoy kain and kwentuhan of our Doña days that are so near na.

We trailed our way back to Philcoa, Fa on the wheel of course, when I received a random text message. I reacted so violently that I had to tell her the history of the message. Only after that, I laughed so hard. Fa begged while half laughing "WAG MO KO PATAWANIN MABABANGGA TAYO MABIBITAWAN KO YUNG CLUTCH." omg that was so hilarious and it was right at the time when we were supposed to turn right from the Elliptical road to Philcoa. Imagine how slow we were while turing right. hahahaha

I enjoyed today.as always. ;)
