Seeing neil for the 2nd time

My first ad congress experience was highlighted by the presence of NEIL GAIMAN, my idol himself. His talk about imagination, day dreaming and creativity was lovely. Crap i was getting different kinds of emotions while listening to him. That poem was lovely and i cannot wait for the upcoming graveyard book that got a lot of people in the area utter an ooooooohhhhhh. It's just sad that i was not able to go to the book signing because i'm out of cash and counting on the idea that i'm gonna see him in fullybooked manila anyway after the congress. BOO me! i missed a lot of events ..this one in particular....... i saw this linked in NEIL'S BLOG and I FREAKIN DIED!!!!!! CAN IT GET EVEN COOLER THAN THAT? having the love of your life proposed to you with the help of NEIL GAIMAN?

Check out the guy's story here..with pictures! i swear this just blows

I think the couple are from BBDO. I am so jealous hehe.

I wonder when NEIL is planning to visit again. I bought a copy of fragile things during my pre-congress shopping spree for him to sign only finding out that there is a payment and i was not ready then i bought my own copy of stardust and good omens in the congress. I want to get a complete sandman but i'm still poor..i'm still a student for chrissake hahah and i saw how those agency junkies stashed their moolah's out to buy Neil's works. I swear they spent a fortune in one buying. But how can you not when it is NEIL we're talking about? i'm gonna have one spot all containing NEIL in my dream library at home someday. Yes just like my radiohead spot. I swear i will make this happen!

I remember the first time i bought a NEIL GAIMAN book was when i was 13 and in my freshman year of highschool hahah it was neverwhere and i got FLOORED and mindfucked. I already know that he's gonna be a part of my GEEKDOM! Then i attended his book signing in 2005? i think. I went to gateway during lunch time and got my dream country signed at 9 FREAKIN PM! He was so nice!!!! i want another NEIL EVENT!!!




I was asked by my creatives prof. what's the best part o the ad congress so far and without a doubt..i said seeing NEIL GAIMAN AGAIN!!!
