FIRST TRIP 11: Celeb-Me-Not 2

It was my first time to be interviewed on TV (for a TV Gala aired live via satellite in Sweden) and it wasn’t exactly a pleasant experience. I was nervous. My face froze. My mouth was dry. I didn’t know how to smile. Someone told me later I swung my legs to and fro during the entire ordeal.

With three cameras smack in my face, I was terribly self-conscious, thinking about all those Swedes watching me in their homes thousands of miles away. It didn’t help that I also had to worry about what I was going to say, in exactly two minutes, and not a second more.

Aaaaargh!!!

I’m not cut out to be a TV star.

Okay lang yan, you will soon learn how to handle this "pressure"... hehehe. Merong workshop ang IDRC on how to deal with the media on 10 Dec sa KL... tara na!

Hehehe... Kurog ka jan!
Wala si Guy, di siya kasama dito. Halos mga taga Evaluation Unit at ICT4Dev ng IDRC ang nandito ngayon sa KL. Nung nasa IDRC ka pa, OM din ba ang gamit nyong methodology sa projects niyo?
I'd rather be behind the camera, KuyaMiki. I love bossing talent around... tell them what and what not to do... ahehehehe.

Outcome Mapping, you mean? We were going to start using it but did not quite get to actually doing it, wahehehe. I was already talking to Terry Smutylo at the time. But he was unavailable to conduct the training.. and so, one thing piled up over another and it went kaput. Yan ba ang binebenta ng IDRC dyan sa KL conference ngayon?
