A few of my friends from OED were invited to this event by Bench and Coke in Trinoma last Saturday. I was pretty excited to attend this kind of event because it’s been TOO long since I’ve been to any! I was really looking forward to the part where I get to shoot a LOT of photos, and fortunately, I got to do that here!
The “Big Youth Blowout,” a youth fashion show featuring chic statement shirts mostly of Coca-Cola related designs by Bench was launched in the Trinoma Activity Center in Trinoma, QC, Philippines. Among the most awaited people in this event were the celebrity endorsers and Happiness ambassadors of this campaign: Julia Montes, Kathryn Bernardo, Joseph Marco, and Enchong Dee.
Before the show started, hosts MYX VJ Chino Lui-Pio and Bianca Roque interviewed the selected fashion correspondents of the day, then some hyper fun cheer dancing occurred courtesy of the UE Pep Squad, followed by a short talk from the owner of Coca-Cola Philippines none other than Mr. Guillermo Aponte. I was waiting for the owner of Bench, Mr. Ben Chan, to have a share some words as well but that didn’t happen. I think after this, the fashion show proper (lol?) started.
I’m sorry I don’t really remember the sequence of events because I was busy shooting. Emphasis on that word! I was really more focused on shooting than paying attention to the show itself. I was so busy that after Enchong’s part, came in the conclusion of the show. To me it felt like the whole event went by like a breeze.
) What.
Definitely more photos under the cut so please go right ahead and click “read more”!

Yesterday was probably the busiest day I’ve had yet as far as my pre-graduation streak of procrastinating around is concerned. I had school in the morning up until early afternoon for graduation practices. Later that afternoon, I met with a friend (brought along our mutual friend with us) and went to the Mall of Asia to try out this Mexican restaurant my friend and I were talking about a week ago. Last but not the last, we went to this groovy bar somewhere in Malate, Manila to watch one of my friend’s favorite bands.
Tiring but it was satisfying in a way that I was busy all day. Hey, at least I got out of the house after all the weeks of rotting like a vegetable.

Here’s a teaser from my busy Saturday. The rest of the photos are under the cut!
Boys will be boys, hahaha.
Um, most of my photos are of them because since I graduated late (my friends, “barkada” if you will, graduated last July) I didn’t know most of the people I’m graduating with in this batch ‘cept for these people. Hm, no, wait, I do know most of the people as familiar faces. As for acquaintances, I didn’t get a proper photo with them though because we were in a hurry to get our photos shot, my cap kept falling off and that annoyed me, tldr, mopey Anna had difficulty asking people to take photos w/ other people lol. K.

Music Wrap-Up Sundays

Lately I’ve been jumping from one activity to another. It’s bad because I don’t get to focus but at this point do I really have a choice? I’ve earned this much free time and I’ll do whatever the hell I want (except spend all my savings in one place).
One of the things I’ve been spending extra time on is fixing my music library for my iPod, iTunes library and having a hi-res backup of these albums burned to a DVD.
Also, I’ve been on the hunt for new music, too. It’s convenient that most of the new releases that pops nowadays are from artists that I listen to frequently. Check out my current (old and new) album picks after the cut!
Featuring the new albums of Evanescence, Demi Lovato and Blink 182 and Young the Giant!

Right after I got home from meeting with my class regarding our upcoming exhibit at the end of the month, I went online to check on my online accounts. I was surprised when Bev tagged me in one of the posts in Splintr’s facebook wall. Little did I know that a surprise was waiting for me at the end of the line… Continue reading →

OHAI! I’m finally using the latest WordPress as of this post. There’s no yellow bar on top alerting me to upgrade to the new one otherwise, haha.
Anywayyyy, here’s the post-Incubus concert blog entry post everyone’s been waiting for. Took me a while to write this because I simply did not know how and where to start!! Lots of stories after the jump. I hope you like how this entry turned out and I hope to god I didn’t disappoint anyone if ever I left out any parts of the story.
Hear, hear. It’s been a week since the concert.. have you guys moved on? I have been trying so desperately to move on but as the days go by I seem to be craving for more Incubus! I have watched too many videos, reblogged too many photos, ranted and raved about different aspects related to Incubus in my other blog, talked about it too much to my friends to the point that they don’t care anymore, found out too many things that I couldn’t handle about the band BEFORE the concert and AFTER the concert.. lastly, got disappointed at one point.
You have only been gone 10 days, and already I’m wasting away… – I Miss You, Incubus (Make Yourself)
As much as possible I’m going to be civil here and not unleash any fury of fangirliness.. I hope. Also, this will be a looooong entry because I didn’t blog about the last concert back in 2008, so I’m going to make up for that!
