Quick Rundown of March Events (Overdue)

Super late post due to the unexpected turnout of events...

My classmate got married on March 21 but I was too busy with work and other errands so I was only able to make it at the reception at Blue Gardens, Quezon City. Gosh, this year a lot of my friends got engaged so I expect to attend lots of weddings starting the second half of the year. No I won't get alarmed even if I'm still single now haha!:)) Anyway, my friend's wedding was cute. It was inspired by cherry blossoms. In fact, they came up with a photo booth with a cute concept.




Last March 22, we celebrated the World Water Day in Quirino Grandstand by having a parade and forming the world's biggest human water drop formation. Despite the rain, the event had a successful turnout. After that, we proceeded to Manila Ocean Park for a music festival and to witness the Lights and Fountain Show.



And as I have mentioned earlier, there's an unexpected turnout of events. The last 2 weeks of March were never easy for me. I was doing a lot of things in school for final exam, final paper, and business plan. I had to quit my job to accompany my grandma and little cousin to Japan. I was forced to make this decision because the company didn't allow me to be away from work for about 40+ days. This made me extra busy with work since I had to fix my clearance while cleaning up my stuff for turnover plus I was still doing existing and future projects that time. My last day at work was March 27 but I had to take a leave on my last day to finish my final paper for school since my flight's on the 28th. It was a tough decision for me, most especially that I was enjoying my job and the company of my colleagues at work. But as always, things happen for a reason and I was just letting God rule my life.

I was so happy after accomplishing all the requirements in school and I was so touched because my friends an co-workers joined me for a send-off. I felt really loved. I had 4 send-offs: classmates, colleagues at work, TNT friends, and the KSP gang. I was so lucky to have them all.:)

 March 24 - Dinner at Tomato Kick w/ classmates

 March 26 - Karaoke night w/ officemates at Music 22

 March 26 - Drinks w/ TNT friends at Dilinger's Greenbelt

March 27 - Victor's birthday surprise and my last Wintermelon Milk Tea at Moonleaf Don Antonio

And on the 28th of March...we flew to Japan. Will be away from the Philippines for almost 3 months. I knew I truly deserved this.:)

A Despedida


March 17 - It was Angelia's last night in Manila for she'll be flying the next day back to Iloilo, her hometown. We will really miss her and her very bubbly personality.  Her a month and two week-long stay here in Manila has been a rollercoaster ride. But all of those memories shared will always be in our hearts and minds forever. Friendship doesn't end when one leaves 'coz friendship bridges even the longest distance.

By this time, she's in Iloilo already. But even if she left us here already, we're all happy for her 'coz she's finally back with her family and friends there, plus she's back to her work in GMA Iloilo. She can always go back for vacation here in Manila anyway. Plus we could always meet in Boracay haha! Well, probably not this summer for me 'coz I'll be out of the country for three months. That's why I'll be the only one in the barkada who won't make it to Boracay during our planned barkada trip on April 29 to May 4. huhu.

To make the most of her last night here in Manila, we all had dinner at Jack's Loft in Eastwood.

all set for Boracay haha!=))

Then Lalie and Angelia both tried the Bungee Fun. Angelia drew the attention of the whole crowd as she somersaulted in the air for a couple of times. haha!

 the girls
the boys
flying Lalie =P
somersaulting Angelia
huge crowd watching haha

After dinner, we went to Central in Pioneer for some drinks. Good thing they're on Promo! Buy 2 pitchers and get a free pitcher of your choice! So we ordered 2 pitchers of Bad Boy for a free pitcher of Bad Girl. I wish we have tried the Bad Trip. haha!=)) Each pitcher costs P180...and our total amounted to P2000 plus. Imagine how many pitchers we finished. I even lost count of it.=))

 take a look at their Drink Menu
 6 guys and 6 girls...everybody had to sit as a pair (even if they're not a couple haha)

Last stop was at Mister Kabab. It was a crazy night! Haha! I didn't get drunk, not even an amats. The drinks were quite weak actually, but I dunno why some of my friends went crazy towards the end of the night. haha!=))
