Wedding Expo:March 8-PICC/ Fernbrook Update: Mini Basilica Doors

Bry and I went to Wedding Expo today at PICC Forum to scout for gown designers and talk to Ms. Rica of Center Table. But of course we got to see all of our suppliers there, we saw lovely of Fernbrook, of course Ms. Rica and Ms. Rose Valera of Center Table who gave us free lunch courtesy of food tasting for all, and of course Junlyn of Events by M&G who is very very sweet! I haven't met Sir Anthony of East Digital because he just left when we arrived but then we got to see their new masterpieces hehe :)

We saw a lot of prospect designers, and we will just make an appointment for consultations by the beginning of holy week since I am on vacation by that time and we will also set an appointment with Center Table to atleast finalize the menu.

This edition of Wedding Expo is a full blast! We even had a hard time finding a parking slot and hard time on walking thru the stalls because of lots of couples and guests who came to scout for suppliers, but yes, it was FUN!!!

By the way, we went straight to Fernbrook to visit the place and check on its progress. We didn't have the chance to roam around a lot because there are 4 weddings taking place, 2 are on their reception areas, 1 just finished their ceremony and the other 1 getting ready for the ceremony. But the most grandest improvement was the doors of the mini basilica. The last time I went there about a month ago there were still no doors and I am really amazed when I saw the doors a while ago...here are the pics...take a look at it!

SF Update: Macky's Welcome and Anne's Farewell Dinner :)

The ocassion is a happy one because Macky just came back from overseas assignment in Saudi, but at the same time it is also a sad one because Anne will be leaving for Singapore to be with hubby JayR and at the sametime there is a new job waiting for her there.

It was a sumptuous buffet dinner at Brazil Brazilian in Alabang Town Center, we really got full because of the different kinds of barbecues and my favorite was the pork belly and the beef tenderloin. Thanks Anne and Macky for that hehe!!!

But of course, if there's one thing that is commonly very important to all of us, definitely that would be our cameras,we can't live without it and can't stand if it will run out of battery! Just like what happened to me :(

It is a tradition in this group to take pictures before dinner, while dinner is served or while getting our food at the buffet, during dinner (literally while you are chewing your food!), after dinner, while having desert, while goofing aroundand whilesaying goodbyes. This is the only kind of memory that will last forever and is a good tool for reminiscing.

Anyway, here's our pics...enjoy guys! (we're only 5, originally we're 10...5 are OFW's) bwahaha

My new family...

I'm not talking of an immediate family or whatsoever, but a new set of friends which serves as my constant companion everyday for 1 and a half month now. I've been engaged on a very extensive training with Unilab particularly with Westmont Pharmaceuticals for almost 2 months now, and this is the hardest training I ever experienced. But in terms of return of investment, I believe it will be millions and millions of payback for my hardwork and effort. Imagine, I've been travelling everyday for almost 3 1/2 hrs, 1 1/2 in the morning from Las Piñas to Greenhills and then 2hrs at night from Greenhills to Las Piñas, plus the fact that we are undergoing a very hectic and stressful training for 8 hrs or more everyday.

But then, I consider this a nurturing and happy experience because we also have good times, that is after our quizzes and 3hr-long finalexam...hehe.

Anyway, here are some of the pictures I took after a stressful exam....

and this is our batch's picture with sir Jimmy and Doc Boni... ang ang mga ever makulit na boys... me and omae...

My new career...

If you knew me pretty well this is not new to you anymore...I have a new career that I really want to pursue...well, this is my 5th job but then I want to say that this should be the last 'coz this company is ver nice and not to mention a leading company in their industry. And I don't want to say completelyand for sure that I am already "IN" but then I am still on a very extensive training which makes my head burst everyday...I am very positive in everything but I just don't want to be overconfident that I can surpass everything but I always pray that I should pass this training because if not all effortswill be wasted.

Hard work and effort, that is the only thing I am giving out for the past 3 weeks now, but it's fun 'coz i get to meet a lot of people and learna lot of things...as in literally A LOT!!!

Too much with that, it's our most awaited call since last year... its UNILAB.
Bry and I have been waiting for their call since december of last year and I am so happy when they called me last january 7 to report the next day for exam and a series of interviews that extended for 2 days pa. I am searching for myself for the last years on what career should I pursue, I've been working inside an office for the past 4 years now and I can't get the job satisfaction I want so I realized that it might be a field job that I will excell in to. And I am already feeling it, I amvery excited to work in this company that's why I am giving my very best to pass this training.

The sad part of it, I left my job at HSBC with a bad exit. I don't mean to, believe me...I just want this job badly and I have no choice but toresign immediately and I'm sorry if I wasn't able to report to work even once nor talk to my managers personally, I promise the time is near and I will air my side and talk to you guys personally and clear everything.

There...am getting ready for work tom.... ciao!

Dinner date; abi's birthday-Stress Relief!!!!

Last weekend, I was able to release all the stress in my body...(literally:all over my body!) haha

That was Friday, on my way home when I was looking at nowhere, sitting in the bus I thought of having a dinner at a good resto to pamper myself and also as promised to go to abi's birthday celeb at Molokai in Alabang (kahit na pagod at super antok nako; i need to have my social life back!!!)

So we had dinner at this very nice place in Alabang - Leslie's. Their kubo's are very nice and interesting....not to mention very attracting talaga...it was our first time in Leslie's Alabang but we had dinner once na in Leslie's Tagaytay na beautiful din ang ambience.

Their food is really great, we had our usual menu: crispy pata and calamares and isang bandehadong kanin!!! The waiters are also warm, ang babait sipag mag take ng pictures! :)

And after dinner, as promised we went to abi's birthday celeb at Molokai...i'm so happy to be reunited with my HSBC friends!!!

Anne and JayR's wedding

Last Jan 5, my dear friend anne and her other half jayr tied the knot at a church in Pasig (sorry anne i forgot the name of the church hehe) and held their reception at Makati Sports Club. I am so happy Bry accompanied me because it will also be the first timemy SF friends will meet my fiance.

We picked up Liapot at Manila Pen at 1pm and then we headed to Pasig already with the guide of the useful map anne provided together with their beautiful invitation. When we got there of course the first thing we did was to take pictures of everyone hehe.

Their wedding was so solemn and romantic not to mention very emotional...I even cried when Anne was already walking down the aisle...haha

And then at the reception, we were assigned to the table near the cake and near the stage...(anne really knows what we want) hehe...the venue was very nice transformed into a very nice reception venue with butterflies around, swags an spotlights and the food was good too!!! I Love the prichon!!! Of course the picture picture won't be be out of the agenda haha...

After that we asked anne to go with us for our traditional coffee tambay...hehe joke!!!

We had coffee at Starbucks in Macapagal....uminom pala muna kami konti...hehe
