Radio Tour

December last year before our Christmas break, my professor tasked us to do a radio tour for our major subject which is Scriptwriting for Radio and Television. My friends and I bumped up to the conclusion of doing it as documentation at ABS CBN. We had chose this one because of my friend, Ellah. Her dad is working their so, we find it not hard to do letter just to got interviews and pictures for WRR and DZMM. We don't know that we are just required to take documentations at FM station, didn't knowing this thing, we come up to idea of conducting both task on to the station to make sense of everything. I, Cheeno, Yvette, Ellah, Bern and Erika went their with great energy and exciting faces because we could see people especially celebrities and take them pictures as well.
We bumped up with Ms. Bernadette Sembrano. She's pretty much more on television. Kind-heart and sweet. We saw her at ABS lobby going somewhere else. I think it was after her taping for Umagang Kay Ganda. I was the one taking pictures of them. See my pals over smiling and crazy to take pictures with artist. Just kidding aside.

We also saw Ms. Winnie Cordero at her office doing her radio script for her radio forecast. We are too shy to take picture of her. But because we want to, we grab the opportunity of picture taking. Bern took the picture and I accompanied with my friends together with her in the picture. She is also approachable and beautiful as well. She asked us where do we came from. We told her that we came straight from Cavite. She surprisingly answers that we should take a tour so we would not spoil our visiting. We thank her and decide to really conduct a radio tour at WRR and DZMM. WRR tour happened after we took our lunch. Kua Raymond, our tour guide help us and explain everything about the radio equipment and the routine at radio booth.
He toured us around the booth and explain everything happened inside it. We saw China-heart having his massage. Kua Raymond introduce us to him and let us watch him and DJ Cha-cha's conversation version in WRR. They are really prolific and full of sense of humor. So wonderful because no dead air at radio. They had a perfect team up at radio conversation. Full of life and humorous topics. Even though DJ Cha-cha is new, she easily adopt to the shows flow. Two thumbs-up for the two of them. They also greeted us on-air and allow us to greet to listeners. Such a wonderful, extraordinary, and extravagant experience.

After the tour at FM station, we took a rest and decide to go at Starbucks. I surprisingly disagree to go their because it would be expensive to buy those drinks. But, they forced me to buy so I can't disagree and I convinced myself that its for first time so why not to try... We saw lots of celeb their including Meryl Soriano, Edu Manzano some TV patrol reporters, Ms, Pinky Webb and Carlo Guevarra. After some picture taking to celeb, we finally take a seat and buy Starbucks coffee. I prefer chocolate drink because I might get disappointed if I chose coffee drinks. It's quite long to take orders because lots of people like to buy. After a couple of minute I finally taste the "coffee of stars". It taste the same like any other drink. Maybe because they told it like that because stars crave to have it as well as the fan like it too.

We took pictures of the place and also pictures of our coffee. We too little ignorant because of i. But, we love the experience of tasting it just to try. Trying it make us not ignorant and consider ourselves as elite... Just kidding. We laughed all day long and never noticed that lights from heaven swallowed by dark sky. Meaning its getting dark and we have to get back to Newsrooms to take tour to AM radio booth. We accompanied by Ellah's closest guard which is friend of his dad. We finally made it to the last pit stop of our adventure which is to see Mr. Anthony Taberna. We imagined his so serious and can't approach because of his professionalism. But this alligators fails us because his so approachable and made sorry because his busy and had to go after his radio program. We decided to come with his radio program which is Teleradyo. His a passionate man with endearing dedication to his job. He never make any faces of nervousness regarding protest to government officials regarding corruptions and many more issues to government and politicians.
