And so today, I met 1/5 of the band The Academy Is...(and no, The Academy Was jokes aren't allowed here). My friends, Fiel and Mariel were with me too! We headed to Makati Shang at around past 9 and waited at the couch by the elevators. Carly Rae Jepsen passed by us twice but we ignored her, it's still funny when I think about it. A security guard also allowed his curiosity get to him and asked us what we were waiting for. The three of us took it the wrong way and thought he was trying to make us go out of the hotel. It turns out that he really just wanted to know who the "Adam" is that we were waiting for.
After 3-4 long hours of sitting and waiting for Sisky to come down, alas! The boy wearing a sky blue top emerges from the elevator and Fiel sort of slapped Mariel's thigh because she thought it was Sisky. It wasn't him, but he totally looked like him. I bet he's his brother or cousin/relative, because they looked almost alike. Anyway, we calmed down for about 20 seconds because after that the Sisky finally comes out of the elevator with his super cool Chicago something cap and Metallica shirt.
Fiel wasted no time and said hi immediately. Mariel and I followed. Everything went by so coolly and not fast, I can almost remember every detail. Mariel was shaking, though. I would too, probably, except I was too busy admiring his perfect existence. Anyway, he was just incredible. I'm just going to type everything that happened.
- Fiel told him TAI was and is still her most favourite band. He was so surprised to see the three of us come up to him, I guess he was really not expecting us. And then he signed Fiel's and Mariel's albums but forgot to sign one.
- He apologised about TAI not being able to reach Manila before breaking up.
- He apologised for not telling where he's at, because it might cause trouble for Carly Rae Jepsen (he is so frikken pERFECT)
- He thanked us again and again for coming to find him and for TAI (I wanted to envelope him in a warm embrace and thank him too for everything)
- He gave Fiel his stripper name, but I can't reveal it yet.
- He said he and the guys were going to watch/hang out with FALL OUT BOY
- He took a picture with the three of us.
- HE SAID HE'LL BE BACK SO WE WAITED
While waiting, here is my photo with him!
Okay, so around 1:00 PM we decided to go out to wait for them. Finally, they came and we said hi again. Fiel asked him to sign the forgotten album and then I said hi to his Blue-eyed cutie companion/relative. I said "Hi again" to Sisky too and he asked us how we were doing. We all mumbled our response.
Finally, to end our wonderful journey, Fiel and I handed in our letters to Sisky and FOB.
Me: Uhm wewroteyoualetter........a short letter and for Fall Out Boy too justincaseyoucomeacrosseachother THANK YOU.
Sisky: Will you be at the show tonight?
Fiel: ..............*stares at me and Mariel*
Mariel:......................*stares at me and Fiel*
Me:.........................*stares at Fiel and Mariel*
Sisky:.......................*stares at Fiel, Me and Mariel*
Fiel:....probably
And then we said our goodbyes, with hopes that we might still see him tomorrow or some other time.
Today was a good day, I'm giving it a 4 out of 5 stars
