Bumped into Sir Jerry Respeto during an LS event this morning and I told him a bunch of my friends and I were going to the Labfest this year. Ang una niyang akala, may sinulat akong ipapalabas, haha. Tapos bigla akong sinabihang, "Magsulat ka naman ng play o kahit anong may kinalaman sa science. Tapos ipabasa mo sa akin at isali mo sa Labfest o Palanca Awards." Na-flatter naman ako. Ang naisagot ko lang, "Tignan natin." Hahaha.
Pero oo nga, no? With Karen's help, why not? (Karen is Karen Manalastas, a friend who graduated from UP. Summa cum laude na Molecular Biology and Biotechnology major na manunulat din. She shares the same equal passion for the sciences and the arts as I do. Nanalo na siya ng Palanca Award: 1st prize sa future fiction category. I believe she sent in new entries just a few months ago.) Maybe she can think of something we can work on.
Para rin magka-sense of finality, ilalagay ko na rito ang Labfest schedule ko. Really excited! Ang saya, parang Academic conference pero puro play sa halip na seminars. Dapat next time, may cheaper "All-Access Pass" sa buong festival. Ma-suggest nga kina Paolo.
