October 24, 2008; Conventions!

Today was a day for conventions. First up, me and my parents went to SM Mall of Asia Convention Center (SMX) for the Consumers Electronics Expo LIVE! But before that, we ate lunch at Tokyo Cafe, one of my fave restos around. The convention showcases the latest gadgets, or what we call "advancements in technology", such as the new iPod, iPhone 3G and Macbook from Apple, new phones from Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson, new cameras from Canon, Sony, Nikon and the like. So there. There was one moment which really made this day was the moment I turned around to check some of the gadgets and, out of nowhere, saw Lia Cruz! The pretty sportcaster which covers the PBA and some sports shows on TV. And man, I saw her, straight in the eyes! And I mean dead straight! The moment I saw her, I was like, I know this lady! Haha! She's rather prettier in person. So there :)

The next convention we went to is at the nearby World Trade Center for the World of China expo. Checked out some stuff, even the Chery cars! The QQ is so cute! The automatic and manual version of it. The manual's stickshift was easy to shift, unlike other cars, and it can fit 5, which is a cool barkada or family car, due to the fact that it is so fuel efficient. It only has a 3-cylinder, 12-valve engine, so it can go for like 15-20 km/liter! :)

And now, back to reality. Here are the latest from the world of sports!
