After the movie, almost everybody went to the catered reception except for a few people. My sister and I went to the reception too but after looking around, we figured Jun will not make an appearance there because of the setup. So we went back to the theater because I heard that he was still inside. I was also trying to look for Ame. So we waited and waited. I saw the teachers and their students again and we continued chatting. A few minutes later, Anthony Daniels made an appearance aty the lobby then came out. A few of us went to him...some asked for autograph, I took pictures. Just then, Jun also come out to the lobby and was ready to come out until they saw that there were more people waiting outside than they thought. Some of us starts to take pictures...me with my cellphone, the others with cameras. I saw I think his manager gesturing "no pictures" but no one really paid attention. Sorry but I couldn't help myself. I wanted to take one good picture but since I have a crappy camera phone, I can't get a good one. Finally, they surrounded him and they came out. He passed right from on me and I saw his face right smack on my screen and click! I thought, yup, that was a really good one. We followed just a few steps then just let them go. I quickly checked my pictures and what do you know, my good picture of Jun turned out to be a good picture of the security guy. Arrghhh... So I looked for my sister and when we found each other, I complained about the picture. She told me, oh I took a video of while he was in the lobby. She said I would have been longer except that she wasn't really recording when she thought she was. But it's ok. The video she took is pretty good.
Anyway, we decided to go back to the reception area again. But I saw that Jun was in that room above the reception area doing another interview. Oh yeah, that big, tall security guy was at the door and was shooing us away. So we went down, looked around then decided to go back up. Who cares about security? hehehe This is when things started to get a little crazy for me. I "parked" myself right next to the door still trying to get that one good picture. Unfortunately, the glass has some sort of chicken wire so I really can't get a good picture. The girl behind has a camera but was also having a hard time taking good pictures. All the pictures came out dark and she was freaking out. I ended up telling her to change her setting so the pictures will be brighter. I wonder if she was able to take good pictures. This went on for about 15-20 minutes...servers going in and out...me trying to volunteer to help the server so I can go in the room. I was ignored, of course. So then, they start to get ready to leave. They put all the bouquets together in the bag and start to strategize again. They realized that they can't get out the door we were at so they left though a back way. As soon as they left, all the girls around me starts running towards the street. Next thing I know, I was running too. LOL I saw a black Escalade just down from where we were with the door open, getting ready to leave. So I just said, he's going in that Escalade. I decided to follow the car and sure enough, after it stopped, Jun and company comes out of the building and gets in the Escalade. Just before the car left, the window rolled down and Jun waved at us. I think there were some screams but I don't really remember. I was in a daze! My god, did I really run like that? It was really crazy especially for someone my age to be doing that. But heck, it was fun! I finally found my sister and she was laughing! She said, "you were like a teenager again!" I guess she's right but then again I never did anything like that when I was a teenager. Anyway, she told me that while we were running, she starts to follow us but just walking slowly. Then she saw some people on her left and when she looked, there was Jun! She wasn't able to take a picture anymore though. Anyway, I'll share some of the blurry pictures just so you can see why I kept trying to get that one good picture. Excuse the bad quality, I was using my Treo to take these pictures.
