Chasing a Star
Chasing – I just arrived from a tedious task we did 2 hours ago at the mall. The mall looks extra festive today. I wondered why? My colleague said it’s the City’s beauty pageant talent show in relation to the coming City Fiesta. I shrugged, uh okay…nothing really special. We decided to look around, our usual thing after a hard work in the office. Feasting our eyes with the beautiful displays of dresses, bags, shoes and accessories in the mall. We just learned that a celebrity from Manila is coming over the mall to “meet and greet” his fans. We are not really a fan of this celebrity yet still we decided to stick around and well…probably do some “chasing”? the way a die hard fan would do just to catch a glimpse of their idol and well, to take a picture with them. It so happened that I also bumped into another friend of mine who seemed to be very interested in seeing this celeb too! True enough after couple of minutes of waiting he was there! I was a little confused at first when my friend pointed out that he is there already…I said “where?” I can’t see him?! Mind you guys, the mall is not that jam packed with people. How can I not be confused when he’s wearing a polo the same color as his body guards! Geeezzz! So we wasted no time and went right close to where he is! Of course we took the liberty of taking pictures of him…..hesitant at first, the guards might forbid us in doing so. Fortunately they seem not to be tight with the security so we can freely take pictures of him. I can’t seem to find the right timing to get a good picture of him! I nearly called one of the coordinators of the show who happens to be my friend for a clear pic of him but I can see he’s so busy with stuff in his hands. Hafta to do it myself. Check out his picture below.

I can’t believe I actually indulge into following him around the mall! at least he just went to the dept. store of SM, so we didn’t really exerted that much effort chasing him around. And we didn’t really did the obvious following.. just sort of stalking perhaps? Whatever you call it. Anyways, we finally got the chance to be close to him when he settled to his seat to start the meeting and the greeting as they call it…Guess what? we were the first ones to take pictures with him! Right on sisters! LoL! Efforts paid off! He was nice, he has to be nice otherwise he won’t last long in his career. It was my first time posing with a celeb, exchanging words with a star and shaking hands with a personality. Other’s may say it’s “jologs” but trust me, it’s a nice feeling. He’s definitely great looking! His eyes they call it “chinito”, perfect set of white teeth, lean body (I’m sure undeneath that white 3/4 sleeved polo is a great body!), perfect tan..He is just gorgeous! When I shook hands with him, I was surprised how normal he feels….not that very soft hands I anticipated…Probably because he indulge into different sports which exposes him to different activities giving him such natural look and feel. Whatever! he is still gorgeous! It was all worth the wait! Nice meeting you Sports Unlimited host Marc Nelson!
