So today was a very meh day. We had the FIRST Robotics Comp "orientation" today and got free turon and buko juice out of it. I loled at the mentor's english - machining machines. Ahahahahahaha.

Highlight for unimportant Robo-blah

I'm seriously planning on going, and what's awesome is that my mom's actually being SUPPORTIVE this time around. I'm starting lean towards attending but I'm not exactly sure which category I fit into - Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering or Software and Programming. People prodded me about non-existent webdev "skills", so I might end up in Marketing for the Website more than anything else. I feel so useless.

Not to mention I think that DOST's expecting WAAAAAAY too much from us. Our robot's supposed to be 120lbs and equipped with a well-programmed AI system, although there might be a category for Remote Controlled Robots. Can you say FAIL? I find it funny that we're going to be put up against teams like Team NASA - Atlanta or Team Microsoft - Doohicky and our name's just a jumbled string of letters consisting of the acronyms of all the organizations involed - UPDLSUDOSTPSHSlkajfkjefh. Yeah. We're awesome yo. The Phil's making its debut and I'm hoping we'll live up to their "expectations".

In all honesty, the mentors did sound a bit doubtful as to the outcome of the competition but meh, it looks like a good experience, win or lose.

Back on track...
So after class we "prepared" our booth for the fair. It rained like crazy - foreshadowing of hell that is to come. Big ass lightning ensued.

We ended up only finishing the booth sign today - no thanks to Rosal 2011. At least they came up and asked what they could do for tomorrow. I was glad they did - we were thinking of not giving them a portion of the profits if they kept slacking off. It was funny just watching them watch us working and not even offer to help ahahaha. Not to mention Nikki Reyes and her blonde moments.

Us: We're an assassin booth, we're going to have water guns, eggs, balloons, etc.
Nikki: OOH! We're having balloons? Can we fill them with helium?
Us: They're WATER baloons.

FAIL.

Courtney and other people went over to SM to buy water guns. They got ripped off. They got their waterguns for a hundred a piece and I got my big-ass water gun (air pump and auto shoot) for a hundred and fifty. And not to mention I saw the same guns Courtney and the others but selling for 3 for a hundred over at Ever. I sort of feel bad. What a waste of money D:

After getting my big-ass gun, my mom decided to go frugal on me and use her BPI credit discount thing over at Greenwich, where I met this totally awesome (and pretty cute) waiter-part-timer-dude-guy ahahahaha.

It was funny. You know how fastfood employees always go "Welcome to ___ ma'am." and people usually ignore them? Well, I'm not that kind of person. If you know me well enough, you'd notice that I'd sort of bow, smile and occasionally say thanks whenever they do that. This guy took notice. IT WAS HILARIOUS

So I settled down on our table while my mom ordered and mister waiter-part-timer-dude-guy comes over and wipes the table off even though it's clean. He smiles and goes "Okay na miss?". I mentally ROTFL.

And then when our order comes he bugs us incessantly about our food and blah and we dismiss it with thank you's and thanks for asking's.

He comes to take our plate away a bit too early and he goes "Okay na po miss." and when he turns around to leave he mumbles "Jeremy." Ahahaha.

LOL sad.

When we leave, he does the custom "Thanks for dining" bit and I reply with a "Thanks Jeremy" and he laughs and... wait for it... WAVES
