Double Celebration

Yesterday was a pretty good day.

For our final exercise, Eric gave us a contest similar to "Where in the world is Carmen San Diego?". I was grouped with Gentley, Glyneth, Arman, and Mike. At first, the group of Lala gave us a hard time because they were loud about their progress. We didn't give up easily. With Gentley and Glyneth's expertise in development, we were able to solve some tricky problems. When we got the first clue, we got really excited. I helped in this department. I love solving clues. The first clue was about a South American city where Carmen loves to party. I quietly informed my group, "Rio de Janeiro". We were right. ;o) With the help of Google, the next clue pertained to a Dinagyang festival in "Ilo-ilo". And then we hit a snag. Eric tried to fix a viewer problem so we could continue. For the last clue, (we got ecstatic at this point now) we blurted out "Boracay". And Glyneth quickly put that in our code, and "voila!". We won the contest!

Eric promised to give us a Starbucks drink of our choice. He even bought us some pizza. Yummy!

After the all-hands, Max celebrated his birthday with pizza, wings, and booze. In our chat, the main topic was our friends' wedding early next year. We suggested to be the entertainers for her reception. We even have a group name, "Kamote Kwartet". Teehee... Sherwin, Lala, Ogz, and I composed this wacky group.

Around 9, Bulilit, Franco, and I watched "Mr. & Mrs. Smith". Angelina was the bomb! I like the scene where Brad was kicking her. That was funny.
