Thursday, April 29, 2004 There was another rally on the corner of Ayala and Paseo de Roxas today, this time for Brother Eddie. Apparently, Brother Eddie and Eddie Gil are two different people. So sue me for being totally clueless about our candidates (I don't even know who're running for local positions). Anyway, it was my first presidential rally ever ... albeit from an airconditioned elevated and very comfortable viewpoint. It turns out they were *selling* Bro. Eddie paraphernalia during the rally ... full color masks (reminds me of these Jason Kidd masks that were all the rage when I was trying to become an NBA fan) for only PHP5, tshirts for PHP80, bandannas for PHP25. I semi regret not scoring some souvenirs from my first rally. The crowd was very pleasant and well behaved all throughout (2pm to 5pm). * * * I'm currently trying to plan my trip to New York later this year. Probably only for two weeks. I'm thinking spend one week in New York and anywhere between 4 to 7 days in some nearby place, preferably somewhere I've never been before. The only place I can think of that I really want to go to is New Orleans (I should familiarise myself with the place before I return for Mardi Gras sometime in the future) ... but there may be some other places worth a visit? Boston? Atlantic City? Detroit? Atlanta? Miami? Suggestions? posted by wys | 7:58 PM 0 comments |
