Hard work paid off: Congratulation Evelyn!


Hard work paid off for my little sister Evelyn as she was awarded as Top 10 and Best in Developmental Reading.  I am so happy and proud to share my sister’s victory. After a year of adjusting the high school life, doing a lot of projects, trying to understand very difficult subjects and sleepless nights she just got what she worked hard for. She was included in Science Class after she passed the exam and now getting awards and being included in the top really shows how she put effort in her studies.

We are so proud of you Evelyn … keep it up we love you: D

My Metro Bar Experience with Nuklear Band


I was lucky to be invited in a great thanksgiving party of Myke Regacho (main performer) who was from Indiana, USA. He just came back for a vacation here in the Philippines for a month. The event was held in a very prestige place “Metro Bar”. Name it prestige because many popular singers, comediennes, and bands had performed in the place but that night I just felt we owned the place. Metro Bar is located in West Avenue, Quezon City. The location is one jeepney away from SM North EDSA. 

An Exclusive Place for Myke's Thanksgiving Party

 So what's the interesting thing about attending Mykel’s Thanksgiving party? Hmmm … Well first I don’t personally know him but I had the privilege to meet him and his family and listen to his magnificent voice ala Bruno Mraz. (Most of his performed songs are from Bruno Mars and Jason Mraz).  I was able to get a ticket because Glenn (my loving and talented boyfriend) was the lead guitar of Nuklear band who was ask to perform with Myke. I was proud to see them (Nuklear Band) to perform in the prestige stage. They performed the following songs: Bandila, Jetlag, Remedy, Wonderful tonight and many more. Aside from them, there is also Yellow Lane Band with their saxophone. They also performed well in the stage.

 The best part of the party is when I had the privileged to meet Tita Liza (Mykel’s mom) who was very kind and accommodating, Joemar(Glenn’s friend), and also I was happy to personally meet Myke and able to talk with him.(He was drunk that time hope he still remember me.)
A lot of people (it was actually their clan; friends and relatives) are happily dancing and drinking. I and Glenn took few shots as well and enjoyed the rest of the night with everyone. I also had a chance to talk with Ethel as she was so busy taking photos (aka official photographer of the event).Nell party so hard :D and that was documented. The party end around two in the morning with a fantastic souvenir, Myke’s album – compiled songs he recorded when he was in US .
     
          That was indeed a great party. A great privilege to meet new people, talk with this people and experience their passion for music.
