TIFF

The Scotiabank Theatre

Looking up from the lobby

TIFF stands for Toronto International Film Festival.  This September 2011 festival was my first time volunteering with TIFF. I can say that it has been a good experience for me. Though I wasn't able to attend the complimentary volunteer party for the celebration the end of the festival and the job well done by volunteers (they say we play a very important role), I am glad to be able to meet a few people.

With Pam ;)

A complimentary voucher (means free movie from the festival) was given every after shift. After my last shift, I went for a snack while I got surprised with Pam's call. She was, at that time, outside the theatre. I rushed back to the street where she's at excited that she might want to see a movie. Then so it happened! We exchanged the voucher for a ticket and watched a thriller film called Intruders. As the scary scene plays, Pam covered her face with her hand (she's makes me nervous that way too). ;))
The movie has a good story plot. I focused on how much the main characters (a family) love each other.

After the movie, Pam and I went to Chapters (bookstore and a coffee shop at some point). I told her how interested I am at the seven-year pen. Just today (three days after), she handed me the pen! THE EXACT COLOUR AND DESIGN THAT I WANTED!!! I am super and to the max thankful for the pen! Gosh isn't she sweet and surprising? She said, "This pen better last 7 years. Thanks for the vouchers. <3 Pam <3"
