hotel updates and other matters

just an update on my hotel accomodations:
the bad news: i was informed by fellow w@wie ivy that ortigas hotels are fully booked on dec 2-4, our wedding date and target check-in dates. so syempre panic, i already have an astoria platinum card and so i intend to really check in at astoria. called them up to verify and yes, there will be a convention at edsa shang on dec 3-7 so all the ortigas hotels are booked. They however allowed me to book for dec 2. problem: checkout time is 1pm, wedding is 3:30. what do i do, fully made up and dressed in my bridal gown?
the good news: after thinking about it for a while, decided to call up astoria again to see if they can put me on the waitlist for dec.3. and turns out i'm the first in the list, which is good! that's quite a high chance that I can get the accomodations because i doubt they's had 100 percent chance that everyone will confirm.
to do: will ask my coord to talk to astoria and confirm if there will be an available room for me on dec. 3. this can be done a few weeks before the wedding already.

tabs and i watched the revenge of the sith at glorietta, the 10pm screening. really enjoyed the movie and think its worth it.

thursday, may 19
had dinner with tabs (2nd day of the week together :-). Was really not planning to stay out today but tabs was so in the mood to chat and i just didn't have the heart to tell him i needed to go home (he rarely talks enthusiastically about work). got home past 10 already. it was really a great night. we had discussions on career, love, etc.
--------------------------------
and again, tabs and i will be meeting tonight, just for some cheap dinner. have to leave the office at 7 pa, but he says its ok to wait, so that's that.
