Party Like A Rockstar: Bacolod Day 3

Thanks to the alcohol-induced drama (I love you, Lil Pok), Ate Pok and I had to stay in the bathroom for more than an hour. As in we had to drink there! Initially, we were with Cesar, but then he gave up na and left us. When Ate Pok and I realized it’s almost 7 in the morning, we decided not to care anymore! As in tulog na and kevs sa drama. Hihihi. Woke up at 1 in the afternoon because LA was trying to call me up. She called simply to ask “O, kamusta naman ang pakikipag tarayan mo raw kagabi?” Hahaha. Bruha! Anyways, I wanted pa sana to go back to sleep but nyets super hungry na. Had brunchenda at 5:30pm! We went to Bob’s! Loves loves the Sate Babe!! Then pa-culture effect muna kami and break from alcohol so we went to Ruins for history appreciation and picture taking. Super ganda ng place ha! Az in.

After Ruins, we freshened up a bit sa hotel then went to Time Out for dinner. Super bad trip lang they didn’t have the sikat butterfly ribs! So until now, I still wonder, ano ba yang butterfly ribs na yan?! After Time Out, we went to Calea for the famous cream puffs! Kaloka major sarap. Bigla ko naintindihan why Larry was so excited! Parang it had ice cream instead of custard as filling. The custard naman, you can find under the cream puff. It was so delish so super shocked ang lola mo when I found out P27+ a piece lang! Too bad mejo mahirap itransport to Manila ang creampuff at baka juice na ito pagdating pa lang sa airport.

@ Time Out

Calea Creampuffs are the best!

After Calea, last night-out na for me as I needed to be back in Manila the following day. My plane leaves at 6:30 in the morning so malamang, di na matutulog. Gosh, everyone couldn’t believe na I’ll do that talaga, but no choice eh. Inngit talaga because all of them will head back to Manila Monday pa!!! Anyways, we went to Mushu and then to Briehz. Feeling despedida party ko! At pasimula na ang autopilot sequence. When my friends realized na almost 4 in the morning na, we headed back to the hotel because I had to be out of the hotel by 5 in the morning or else maiiwan ako ng plane.

What happened after that, you can read about sa ibang blog ko. Mahirap na. Hihi.

In summary….Bacolod was doooooper fun!! Thude!!! EEeeeekkkkk. Sheth. Ganyan. Will definitely be back!!!

But for now…..the voice in my head keeps on saying…”dinagyang, dinagyang, dinagyang…Paging Mor!! Dinagyang!!”

So Lovin' It : Bacolod Day 2

By Day 2, dumating na ang mga Kulasa (Carla, LA and Karen) at ang boyfriend ng Kulasa (Larry). Had brunch at Chicken Haus. Super sarap and cheap lang ng food. Super dooper suliiiiit! Chicken Inasal at P50ish ha! Then went na to Lacson to watch the festival. Very festive ang mood (duh, festival nga!) and nag enjoy kami ni Carla sa street food. 5 pesos yata everything so death by mango shake, cotton candy and skrambol ang drama! Kakaawa lang yung ibang dancers sa festival. Imagine ha, the clothing full of borloloy then the mask pa na I’m sure very bigat. Most of them faint and dapat ma first-aid. Kami nga nagwwatch lang napapagod na, what more the people who actually take part diva!

After the festival, we were all super tired so we went back muna to the hotel. Ayan, I met new friends na. Vanessa, Jeff, Cesar and Mor. They were all super nice. Imagine ha, less than 10 minutes pa lang since introduction tralala, Mor extended na invitation for Dinagyang festival in January (he hails from Iloilo kasi). Will go, will go!!!

I was planning to sleep pa. Of course, had to prepare for another drinking spree that night. But noooo, Cuz arrived at the hotel na so ayan, no choice! We went to Italia for a very nice dinner. Yummy Italian food. Then, we went to Moravia for a couple of drinks. After that, we headed to North for this Philip Morris event. Oops…that’s another story (watch out).

Dahil super inis kami ni Mor with what happened sa North, we simply decided to go back to Pepe's. Then tuloy nalang ang fun sa hotel!

I love Bacolod!!!

Go Wherever! : Bacolod Day 1

I left for Bacolod 17 October 2008. First time ko sa Bacolod and first time of course to experience Masskara Festival. Well, truth is I was a bit nervous about the trip. I mean, there were going to be a lot of people in our group. According to Cuz, around 20 daw, and more than half super strangers to me. Si Cuz na yata yung super close ko sa group and she’ll fly to Bacolod pa daw 18 October ng around 6pm. So goodluck, social skills. Mejo kaladkarin lang kse talaga ako, addicted to vacays and all, bigla bigla nalang ako nag yes to the Bacolod invitation! Hihi.

Super fun. I mean, despite the fact that si Cuz came in late, super nag gel naman everyone who went. Okay naman, because some of my highschool schoolmates were going to be with us naman pala. That night, Meg and Ping were with us na. And of course, there’s Little Pok Kat and Ate Pok Michelle na kadikit ko while pakalat kalat kme sa mga kalye sa Bacolod (Street Party pala sa Bacolod pag Masskara).

Super inom lang and bar hopping for the first night because we arrived late na rin (around 7:30pm). Major thanks to Honey Lopue for being our tour guide! Thanks for all the sweetness and for introducing us to your Bacolod friends. She brought us to this place called Palapala sa 18^th Street! Kaloka ang food, super sarap. We didn’t even had the chance to take pics as we all had to dive in the moment we saw food! Must try: Grilled Blue Marlin (super juicy and tasty, kahit wizelle na mag sauce!) and the Sizzling Scallops (never really was a fan of scallops until that night!). After dinner, ayan na…..watched the electric parade and then bar hopping na. Went to First Pab @ Sorrento, Mushu, 21, then went back to Sorrento again (this time @ Pepe’s). Last stop na yung Breihz. The rest is history.
