The Fast and the Furious 6 - Asian Premiere
When the Fast and the Furious 6 cast came to the Glorietta Mall in Makati, Philippines for their Asian Premiere, we only found out the day itself. Luckily we were working in the Makati Central Business District which made it an easy feat to get to the mall.
Before their arrival, a number of race cars and "pimped" cars paraded through Ayala Avenue and onto the streets surrounding Glorietta, escalating the excitement of people anxiously waiting for the internationally acclaimed stars.
By the sight of the people inside the mall, me and Papa P could tell that we would not be able to get a glimpse of "Dom". So we decided to take the road less traveled, or shall I say the part less crowded. hehe. We went to the entrance of the mall where the actors are expected to arrived. After waiting for almost an hour, balancing ourselves against people and containing drips of sweat from our foreheads, we were not disappointed, we caught a glimpse of "Letty", Michelle Rodriguez smiling and closer than where we were originally positioned inside the mall.
BUT!
We have yet to see the main man, Vin Diesel.
So we waited.
And a bit more.
And some more.
Until finally he arrived..
But..he arrived from another location.
He did not pass the same entryway his co-stars passed through.
He did not pass near the spot we positioned ourselves in for almost an hour.
Bad, Vin Diesel, Bad!
We still had to see him, so we went inside the mall again and finally saw him.
Well, his back and maybe his side view and his biceps too. hehe.
Finally, all our hardwork paid off.
