GIVEAWAY: FREE Bloggers United 3 Passes

It's only two days before the exciting Bloggers United Bazaar 3.

I'm such in a rush to post this entry because it has been a busy month for me since I decided to simply put my social media life the least of my concerns in pursuit of personal life endeavors. Contrary to most of the BUB3 participating bloggers, my items are FAR from ready [yet] for the big day.

Anyway, for sure most of you would enjoy the cheap yet stylish items that you'll find in the bazaar. For budget fashionistas, Bloggers United Bazaar 3 is the best place to snag a handful of branded and trendy items (take note: most are pre-owned) where you'll feel every peso that you'll spend is WORTH IT.

We almost lost our house.

Two weeks ago, I was at an important meeting with my bosses from SM [Kids Fashion] to evaluate the  series of mall shows (that I hosted) for their Crazy for Colors collection (as mentioned here). There were a couple of production and logistical glitches during the Cebu show and the team would like to address certain issues that arose in relation to the remaining events that we'd be having until the end of the month. 

In the middle of the discussion, I got a text message from my sister saying that there was a fire in our village and that even though our house wasn't on fire [yet], the blaze was huge and would probably catch ours eventually. I didn't really want to bother my bosses about my own personal problems. Good thing, as I was about to tell them, call it divine intervention but the meeting was dismissed earlier than expected. I headed home as fast as I could and upon arriving, I saw that all the roads were blocked by fire trucks and our neighbors were running around while some gathered in a crowd, weeping for their burning homes.

Finally we meet: Superb by SuperSale Bazaar

Hosting is a job that I truly love doing. However, in the past Bloggers United events that we've had, I missed out on connecting with my readers because I was on stage working the whole time. Usually, I would receive comments, messages and tweets from people saying that although they have seen me, they couldn't interact with me as much as they would want to because I was busy hosting the event. 

I then realized how much I missed out by not being able to meet the people who take the time out of their busy schedules to read my posts or at the very least visit my blog.

Even though I'm not really a people person, I would definitely love to meet you. Be warned though that I look snobby at first (emphasize on the "look"). It's just that, find it awkward to smile at people not unless if I'm really friends with them or know them at least so I hope you won't get intimidated.

Feel free to approach me at the Superb by SuperSale Bazaar starting tomorrow (May 23) till Sunday (May 27)! Because I don't think I'll be able to sell at the Bloggers United bazaar anymore on June 2, I'm disposing all of my items at Superb Bazaar for super affordable prices dedicated to all budget fashionistas like me! Everything P350 down to P50!

Here are some of the items that I'll be selling at the event! 

BEYOND FASHION: Because Lady Gaga is Born a Certain Way

Let the show begin. 

Tonight and tomorrow, Lady Gaga will rock the Mall of Asia concert grounds with her outrageous costumes, grandiose set design, impressive singing, entertaining choreography and let's face it - provocative acts. When all of these take place, the Philippines and some thousands of Filipino audience are said to witness something that will definitely [according to Ruben Abante] "challenge our values and morals as a nation".

Lady Gaga Monster Ball Tour in HK

Since Friday, a group of Filipino Christians have gone out to the streets in protest of Lady Gaga's concert here in Manila. They complained about her racy lyrics and over-the-top costumes and most of all "blasphemous" and "satanic" views, songs and videos about Jesus Christ. These, they all find offensive in accordance to their faith and beliefs.

The protest has stirred quite a buzz I must say. In a simple social networking site like twitter, almost everyone has been talking about Lady Gaga and the string of controversies that have been following her every where she goes. I even find myself spending my yesterday just reading all articles pertaining to this issue, tracking tweets, re-evaluating her videos on Youtube, watching past interviews and listening to her songs. Guess what? No demon in me has been unleashed!

Baguio Work Trip

Over the past weekend, I went to Baguio not primarily for a vacation but because of work. It's not so bad mixing business with pleasure after all, haha. My boyfriend JR also tagged along to show his support on my endeavor which was totally sweet.

Inspired by Aivan Magno and his Primitive Revival fashion advocacy.
