Birthday Bash

on a roll with sequins, a birthday bash

Don't forget to join the CITT 100th Post Giveaway by clicking here A few days back, I went to this incredibly fun birthday party. It's one of those times where you barely know anyone (except the one having the birthday), but end up kind of just hanging with everyone. Unlimited shots, cool kids-definitely a great time. But you know, contrary to what some...

Sinulog 2010 Day 1-Of Weddings and Mixed Martial Arts

Sinulog 2010 is officially over, and its funny noting how i spent the first night with two completely different events. The day began with the intimate church union of Edu and Kathi, who happens to be one of my closest girlfriends in highschool. For somebody who doesn't really believe in marriage, I swear I teared up a little bit. Hahaha. No seriously, it's...

The Beat is On: Sinulog @ 30

Held every third Sunday of January, the festival honors and commemorates the Santo Nino and its deep connection to the heritage and history of the people. With its incomparable grandeur, this is one of, if not the most anticipated festival in the country.The pictures will always be splendid, but one needs...

MOTO

I finally got to see Avatar with one of my best gals Aoi last night. The boyf was critically panning it as "obvious, weak characterization", but there's so much hype to it that I had to go check it out myself. I would agree with him a little bit (Giovanni Ribisi's character was just WAY too obvious), but still, I would say the...
