Speed Dating with the Philippine Volcanoes
[/caption]
Last February 15, 2012, Globe Telecom had a Post-Valentine treat for media people and bloggers at Izakaya in Greenbelt. Ladies got to speed date with some Philippine Volcanoes players that night. Globe required us to take a photo with each member and ask them questions, all within 2 minutes. It was dizzying for me because of the time constraint. Two minutes isn’t enough to get to know each member and take a decent photo with them. Still, it was a fun night even though there were too many women. My estimate is the ratio per player is 4 girls is to 1. Too much competition hehehe.

I’m inviting everyone to come to Brown Bag Vintage and Crafts Market on December 9, 2011 at the Filipinas Heritage Library. I will have a booth there to sell my Aromacology products and probably some vintage items. Entrance is completely free and there will be lots of activities for arts and crafts lovers!!! I wish I still have time to do tatting so I can sell them in the bazaar but besides it being time-consuming, the art gives me carpal tunnel. Anyway, I’ll find some other craft but in the meantime, learn other crafts with me on that date. The schedule of activities is as follows:

I was very fortunate to have been invited to this year’s S3X Tour (SOCCSKSARGEN Experience Tour). I’ve never been to the region but I heard wonderful things about it, especially Gen San, from Dabawenyo bloggers during my DFAT tour earlier this year.
I arrived a few days early so I can spend some time in Davao then Tara, Ria, Mica and I took a bus from Davao to GenSan. The ride was long but smooth. I enjoyed the scenery while my companions slept. Too bad it started to rain when we got to GenSan so commuting was a bit difficult. We agreed to meet up with Avel and company at KCC Mall before checking into our hotels. When we arrived, some Manila-based bloggers (Fitz, Rina, and Don) were at Coffee Dream, our designated meeting place and one of the sponsors of our tour.
