Motorola RAZR 2 Event '08/26/07
(Visited 1318 times)Marc and I were supposed to go to Metrowalk to meet up with Abe, Gail, Marc V., and some other bloggers to chill. But he already went there the other night. So we thought of changing venue instead. As we drove along Julia Vargas and was looking for a new place to hang out, I remembered Jayvee invited us last Taste Asia event to party with them the next day at Temple in Greenbelt 2 for a Motorola RAZR 2 event. So, we went there instead. We missed the dinner party at Mezze because we came in late, so we just had a few drinks there and chilled with Sasha, Rico, Jayvee and his friend, Anna. Then we headed off at Temple to party at the VIP booth. It was insane! We all had fun (I think) hehe.. Who wouldn’t right? With all those free-flowing-booze and food (thanks to Ogilvy.com). I also got a freebie from Motorola woohoo… 
Pics, pics and more pics! With Marc, Abe, Jayvee, Gail, Marc V., Juned, Jomar, Mike, and Ogilvy peeps.

Taste Asia Part 2
(Visited 1573 times)The first Taste Asia blogger food fest was a success. This time, Taste Asia Part 2 was bigger, twice the fun, double the amount of food served, new booze, fashionistas everywhere, more sponsors, and more than 400 people came (old and new faces).
Of course thanks to SM Hypermart for hosting the event. Also, my favorite party booth… The Cliquebooth was there to lighten up the camwhores (including me) haha.

Hockey tourney in Malaysia ‘06 '05/30/06

World Ice Hockey 5’s in Malaysia last May 2 - 6, 2006 was a blast! 50 countries from all over the world participated in that event. For the women’s hockey, 4 countries composed of 4 teams from Hong Kong WIHO, Malaysia Slayers, Singapore Blizzards & ASIAN STARS (5 players from Manila, 2 from Macau & 4 from HK). Due to incomplete members of the Asian Stars team, the coaches of Manila and HK decided to combine players. We didn’t expect we’d win the tourney because: 1 - we didn’t know the other players, which was difficult for us to adjust. 2 - we thought that language barrier would be a problem (but turned out that everyone speaks English fluently). 3 - we didn’t have the time to practice before the tourney. So in short, we had doubts about our teams capabilities.

Our 1st game started around 11:30pm, we were tired, nervous and uneasy because ’twas our 1st game. But thank God, we won against the Singaporean Blizzards 1-0. Considering that most of their players were imports from China, USA and Canada and they had the tallest and oldest players. We played our part and we really worked as a team.
Our 2nd game was a match with KL (home). We lost 4-3. But at least our defense was strong. Actually, it was a very interesting game considering thee home-court advantage, we out skated them and our defense was up. Again, they also have the strongest players from Japan and Canada.
Our 3rd game was a little biased because some members of the Asian Stars are from WIHO. But its ok. Really.

Semi-finals. Asian Stars vs Malaysian Slayers. We lost unfortunately! But it’s ok. We still got the 3rd place over-all. No worries! Vixens will be back next year… with the rest of the Philippine women’s team mwehehe… :p
Shoutout to Au, Shaba, Megan, Michelle, Alysson, Patty, Alex, Meh, Kae, Ann, Babing, Chaya, Christine, Chriska, Jami, & etc. Louann, Jhoanna, Kit and Jessica of course (putra jaya!). I know we will win in the next year’s league. “Haki na toh!”
Oh btw, thanks to David Kong (our HK coach) for coaching us. ‘Twas worth an experience. Also, thanks for the team dinner. Would like to commend Albert Lee for the nice shots from our games. We looked like pros. And to coach Paul for assisting and supporting us. Till next year!
