The Lake House Experience
A guy entered the boardroom and was surprised to see that no one was there. He called his friend Dondon.
Guy: Asan na kayo?
Dondon: Nasa boardroom lang.
Guy: Nandito ako sa boardroom. Walang tao.
Dondon: Sang boardroom ba yan? Nandito kami sa 2nd floor.
Guy: Ok, 2nd floor.
The guy hurriedly went in the lobby and asked one of the guards where the 2nd floor boardroom was.
Guy: Excuse me po, nasan po yung 2nd floor boardroom?
Guard: Baba ka lang ng escalator sir. Pero parang wala pong tao dun sir e.
Guy: Ok thanks!
The guy then proceeded to the 2nd floor and found out that there was no boardroom on that floor. He was quite baffled. So he went at the ground floor and asked the lady in the information desk.
Guy: May boardroom po ba kayo sa 2nd floor. I am supposed to have a meeting there 10 minutes ago.
Lady: Wala po kaming boardroom sa 2nd floor at kung meron man, wala pong ongoing meetings ang mga boardrooms ngayon.
The guy was beginning to get flabbergasted. His temper was rising up so he called another friend Sam.
Guy: Asan na kayo?
Sam: Nandito na sa boardroom. Ikaw asan ka na?
Guy: Nandito na sa ground floor. Wala daw meeting sa mga boardroom ngayon sabi ng information desk.
Sam: Akyat ka na. Meron yan.
Guy: Paano ba pumunta diyan?
Sam: Di ba may fountain sa labas? Pasok ka from there tapos diretso ka lang sa gitna. Huwag kang pumunta sa West or East. Diretso lang.
Guy: Ok diretso lang. Dadaan ba ng starbucks o hindi?
Sam: Hindi na pare, basta diretso lang. May guard dun pagkaakyat mo. Tanong mo na lang sa kanya kung asan yung boardroom.
Guy: Ok.
After about 20 minutes, the guy was still at the ground floor. He called Sam again.
Guy: Nasan ba specifically ang boardroom na yan? Baba ka naman o.
Sam: Sige pare, baba na ako.
Another 10 minutes passed and the guy wasn’t able to see still his friend. He called.
Guy: Nasa baba ka na ba?
Sam: Oo pare, asan ka na ba?
Guy: Dito pa rin sa ground floor.
Sam: Di ba may fountain sa labas? Labas ka dun, nandun ako.
The guy went outside near the fountain and tried to scan the crowd. Sam wasn’t there.
Guy: Nandito na ako sa labas.
Sam: Nandito rin ako.
There was a long silence until finally….
Sam: Nasan ka ba? Huwag mong sabihing nasa Makati ka!
Guy: Hindi ba dito sa Makati?
Sam: Hehe. Hindi pare! Dito tayo sa Ortigas ngayon!
Guy: Di nga?
Sam: Oo, bilisan mo na lang pumunta dito!
Guy: Shit! Sige tsong! Salamat! Sorry sa abala.
