Good lord, this is what I have to pay for being such a renegade daughter.
First off, let me congratulate Imago for pulling a job well done on their gig at Mayrics last Friday�the Listers� night. Phanie wasn�t able to make it but old friends Tani and Noel were there, plus I was able to meet three new people from the list. Aia was there again, of course.
The downside though, is this: that Friday was our Awards night, right? Since we got so hectic over it, it kinda took my mind off dinner, since I skipped the dinner party I was supposed to attend just to be able to run to UST for the Mayrics gig. Upon reaching the place, I immediately took my complimentary beer, guzzled it up, then ordered another one. After imago�s set, we kinda got bored so Noel and I took off, and wandered all over Ortigas after that.
And then, this happened.
Yesterday morning, I already felt something twitch inside my stomach upon waking up. I didn�t mind it much, I just drank some water then went off to go to church. On the afternoon, while I was watching Vanilla Sky on the laptop, my stomach lurched real bad that I got to puke all my innards out. Everything I ate was down to the drain. The whole afternoon all I did was puke, until my stomach could not take out anything much longer, that it started to puke acid instead.
Thank god it wasn�t ulcer, but near�it was an acid thingy with my stomach. I was almost tied to my bed the whole evening because I could not pull my self up; I was that sick. We almost ran to the hospital, but thank goodness our good neighbor Nat knew first aid things being a therapist, and made me drink sterilized milk to lessen the pain and the stomach lurching. I�m now a bit fine, thank god, but my head is still swirling.
Sigh. I was thinking maybe someone bitter spiked my beer or something, due to my WINNING the GAWAD TALA 2004 BEST ACTRESS AWARD last Friday. Ha ha.
Yeah, people. Let me hear the applause. Minsan lang ako maging conceited. Woohoo!!
It was a cleansweep. We didn�t win any awards on the MTV, Feature and Documentary level because barely anyone from our section passed one (pagmamadali, di natapos), but during the peak of the awarding, our Telesine group won almost all of the Telesine awards except for Best Supporting actor and Best Male actor, which is okay, since our best supporting actor is non-existent, and our best male actor had only three-four lines on the film. I was the main actress, so it was understandable. But the Male actress award still went to our section, only it went to the other telesine group.
Hah. This is for all those who scoffed that our group wouldn�t make it, just because our genre was suspense-thriller.
So here are our awards:
Best Make-up Production
Best Production Design
Best Sound Mixing
Best Screen Play (I�m the script editor�woohoo!)
Best Director
Best Supporting Actress
Best Actress (aherm.)
Best Telesine of the Year.
More to follow, I think. I mean, I can�t remember if this is all. Thanks for the prayers, people. Next time na ang blow-out.
