My Sogo Hotel Experience
Saturday, May 28, 2011
Language of this post: Tagalog and English :))
So, this post is all about my or our experience rather. First of all, our goal in checking in such motel or hotel was not sex, darn! It was all about photoshoot, bien?. wait wait wait, what is the *F&&&@!$!@ difference between "motel" and a "hotel"? hmm? Here is what I've got when I searched the net.
A motel, was derived as a combination of the words "motor hotel," is best described as a one or two story structure with rooms that open to the exterior of the building, usually surrounded by a common balcony or patio.
A hotel has rooms that open to the interior of the building, along a hallway, and is multi-storied.
For me, SOGO is not merely a motel, but it is a hotel, let us call it a hotel, shall we? Well, naka-tatlong sogo kami bago natuloy ang photoshoot.
Bago ang lahat, nag canvas muna kami ng friend kong si gerardo de vera. Plus, I've searched on the internet about the reviews of such hotel.
1st sogo hotel-Balintawak Branch.
We rented a taxi from SM North Edsa to balintawak. Pag dating namin sa branch na yan, ugh!, "sir ilang taon na po kayo?" a crew said because he saw us na magkakasama. "We are all 18" sabi ko. "Naku sir! 21 po dapat bago makapasok".
... umeksena yung manager...
manager: hindi pwede. Nagbaba kasi ng city ordinance yung kwan na 20 above ang pwede hindi pwede ang 18 lang.
me: hindi naman po kami mag-aano. :)
manager: magphophotoshoot kayo?(nakita tripods ko).
gerry: (umepal) opo. nagba-blog po kasi siya.
manager: ganito nalang, para matulungan ko kayo, gawa kayo ng formal letter para makapasok kayo dito para magshoot.
gerry: papirmahan pa po ba sa magulang? (FAILED xD)
---------------second branch, pahiya konti, mamaya ang bawi---------------
2nd sogo hotel-MCU Monumento Branch
Before pumasok sa hotel 2nd branch, i told gerry na wag mag salita about sa photoshoot... and I told the 2 girls (carla and star) that they should wait in front of the entrance of the hotel. Pumasok kami ni gerry. Nung una gora (go) yung manager na papasukin at pagcheck-in na kami sa hotel nila. But then I said that we have a companions pa. Sabi niya, "papasukin nyo na". Boom! The manager saw that we have 2 girls, so sabi pa niya, "ilang taon na kayo?" Sabi nila carla, star at gerry, "21". (FAILED! xD). Failed ang lies namin. Ako pumunta nalang ako sa waiting area ng sogo na yun para mag music dahil napapahiya na ako sa model ko, crush ko pa naman.
Lumabas kami ng sogo na napahiya. hahaha. Kailangan daw kasi ng I.D. ughh! We almost lost our hopes para makapag shoot, e anong oras na? 5pm. Naisip ko na pakainin ko muna sila sa Grand Central Mc Donalds. So kain kami at tawanan kasama kasi namin si gerry na comedian, mukha pa lang nakakatawa na. Joke.
Sabi ko, "gerry, may isa pa tayong pag-asa, may sogo pa dito sa LRT station". Naisip kagad naming dalawa na noong una sa 2nd branch ng hotel ay muntik na kaming papasukin at hindi na nila inusisa ang age namin kasi dalawa kaming lalaki na magche-check-in.
3rd sogo hotel-LRT Monumento Branch
So we walked out from mc Donalds after eating... Naisip namin ang plano na magsama kaming dalawa ni gerry at sa isang grupo naman sina carla at starq(ko). :))
I gave them my money for checking-in. Sabi ko: "text nyo ako kung what room kayo at kung nakapasok na kayo". So after 10 mins, carla texted me, "room 262". Ok fine! Nag-elevator na kami ni gerry para mabilis. Then punta sa counter, nagbayad, they didn't ask for our age, they gave us the key, room 262 then BAM! HAHA! Ang saya! We rented a "deluxe room" worth 390 petot. So pasok kami sa room 263.
Humiga kami sa kama. Ang sarap sa pakiramdam. Hahaha! Ang room sa sogo ay may Television. Channel 39 adult channel Asian Porn. Aw! Then I called for carla and star para pumasok sa room namin ni gerry ng patago. Game! Si Carla ang MUA(make up artist) ng model naming si Star. Si Gerry ang Janitor este Assistant ko sa shoot. Naligo ako while they are preparing. Sarap maligo. Pero medyo mabaho ang twalya kasi daw parang hindi natuyo masyado. Malinis ang kwarto at banyo. Sarap maligo. You may want to have a shower in hot water or cold. May sabon na maliit kaso walang shampoo. Sarap! I turned on my laptop for tethered shooting. But then, ugh! WALEY WI-FI, i mean, merong wi-fi pero may pass, ano ang password nito? Gerry called the crew from the counter thru telephone, he asked for the password and he yelled, "so clean so good" no spaces and small characters! :)). Haha! I thought he was joking, and I entered the password, then bam! ok na!
Then the photoshoot began! I can't show you the photos from the shoot. Theme? Boudoir shoot. Ayaw ni Star na ipakita. huhuh. Sad. She's so sexy n hot. :) darn!
