Of Raffles and Trade events

Heto na!

I have achieved a new level of stupidity, if you can call it that. I attended the ETC launch event in A Venue. The evening was going well, we hung out in the Gossip Girl booth and had a fun time people watching. Towards the end of the raffle, I realized that I was waiting for my number to be hopefully called only to realize that I forgot to drop my stub! Ack! Sheer stupidity or I simply don't care! Hahaha... They gave away cash prizes from Php 5,000 to Php 60,000 and a trip for two to Hollywood. Hahaha... Anyway, I was never lucky with raffles so no big deal.

I took home a shocking pink laptop bag though and the food was divine. Second helpings of truffles anyone?

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

Around Manila: Exploring the streets of J.P. Rizal in Marikina

It is funny how we know the history and culture of a land we do not live in yet know so little about where we live. Thus, began our mission to explore Manila, one city at a time. DESTINATION: Marikina Starting Time: 11am End Time: 5pm How to get to J.P. Rizal in Marikina - Waze (app) and Google Maps Marikeno (native people in Marikina) are said to be the most disciplined people in the Philippines. If the cleanliness around Marikina were a testament to that, Marikenos would pass with flying colors. The streets I could say were similar to those in Singapore - free from litter and we saw people from households cleaning their own front area even if it were facing a street. SHOE CAPITAL of the Philippines Marikina produces 70% of the shoes in the country. and holds the World's Largest Pair of Shoes, recognized by the Guinness World Records.
