Penny for your thoughts

Happiness comes in many forms -- in the company of good friends, in the feeling you get when you make someone else's dream come true, or in the promise of hope renewed. It's okay to let yourself be happy because you never know how fleeting that happiness might be.

Taste Asia II: I was there again!

Saturday, August 25, 2007

Ok i make this entry quick so i can sleep because im sick again and damn allergies! My nose hurts! Well, I went to yet another blogger parteh and as i was saying, I knew the second Taste Asia event would rock! And i think its better than the first because : one, I knew more bloggers this time around; two, TMB was there; and three, FREE BEER and food as always! I wasn't sure I was going at first because when I heard about the EB, everyone I knew wasnt registered yet and i was afraid i might go alone. So I left for my vacation and when I got back everybody seemed to be going (read: including TMB folks) and I have not registered! I quickly asked Sexymom if it was too late and she was nice enough to sign me up and even asked me to bring a guest. Marlon was not around for this, im sure he would have enjoyed it (Mikey was looking for you, ahaha) And I was late again, as always. Although this time, I did not have a hard time looking for my name since I am registered!! Actually, i was there on time but i went to the movies, after watching i went to Taste Asia and there were a lot of people already!

I recognized Rico and Sasha first since they were standing near the food table, and i was hungry oh and AJ was there too. The line was long but Mikey was in front and he was being a bully like "boo hoo you will starve to death!!" Kidding, he actually let me and TJ cut (nice of you to do so and to the others falling in line sorry ü) Then we proceeded to the TMB table outside where I met most of them (Bim, Coco, Fritz, Marco, Steel, Anne and Helga). And they were all nice, Liz had to leave early though, I still owe you wowowee tickets! Ade was going around, i hope he was not doing the Hi-Im-Ade-the-NoisyNoisyman-and-Im-awesome thing again. I also met Sexynomad and Teh Mordo who introduced me to Jayvee and Ganns Dean. Overall, I had an awesome night. And i know this because i wasn't able to finish my food and that rarely happens. How can you eat if :

*you have the TMB monkeys making jokes constantly? (either that or they were just being normal which i find funny)
*you have the TMB monkeys making jokes constantly while you were being pressured to drink beer?
*you have the TMB monkeys making jokes constantly while you have Sexynomad asking you about your HK trip? (which reminds me i have to make an entry or else she will kill me)
*you have the TMB monkeys making jokes constantly while Mikey is trying some of his pick up lines on you?
*you have the TMB monkeys making jokes constantly while Bim is talking to you about his uncle's telescope and hardware or something related to computers? (i cant remember what it was)
*you have the TMB monkeys making jokes constantly and Fritz was clicking his camera away like there's no tomorrow?
*you have Mikey and Bim making you choose who you like better? (and i picked the goat first but they decided to remove it from the choices)

See? Fun!


*Me choosing  Bim over Mikey

 
*Me with Adam and Jen

  * with Mikey

*with Steel

[edit]

I was not able to go around and say hi to the bloggers ive already met like Tita Noemi, AJ, Tita DineMarcelle, AnitoKid, Aileen Apolo, Karlo Pinoy Blogero, and Juned. I failed to meet  Jehzlau Concepts, Benj, Yatot Chronicles, Tom and Shari.

I failed to take a picture at the Cliquebooth, but i got pics somewhere here : Real People / Real Style (girls)
Real People / Real Style (boys) And from Ade's cam and Fritz's too.

Posted by Mikey at August 25, 2007, 6:57 pm

Also, it was unfair that they got rid of the goat.

Posted by Ade at August 25, 2007, 7:20 pm

Hi, Pen. Medyo marami na akong nainom; so, I decided not to approach you, nor Jen and Liz, anymore. Anyway, I hope I could attend the i.ph EB.

nice to hear that benj!! actually we’ve been bumping around each other in EBs

Posted by alohapenny at August 27, 2007, 1:28 am

The goat was supposed to be slaughtered as celebration with the winner. I had to take it out because you kept choosing the dinner over Mikey or me.

There will be no more goats for you.

Posted by Bim at August 27, 2007, 6:34 pm

gaah! no more goats?! and dinner too?! but i plan on eating it with you! tsk..

Posted by penny at August 27, 2007, 9:42 pm

Lol, the goat. Chris and I saw goats and a ‘goat for sale’ sign over the weekend and he was like: QUICK, TAKE A PICTURE LET’S SHOW IT TO BIM!

It was nice meeting you! You look like one of my college friends, btw.

Posted by Helga at August 27, 2007, 11:15 pm

haha did you take a picture??

Posted by Penny at August 29, 2007, 2:59 am

I kept on restraining myself from calling you Aloha. Nice meeting you in person, Penny.

Posted by Steel at August 29, 2007, 3:49 am

haha Fritz called me AlohaPenny in his blog when everyone else he called by their names.

Posted by penny at August 29, 2007, 6:28 am

I didnt have enough time to take out my cam :(

Posted by Helga at August 30, 2007, 1:25 am

awww… darn it! Let’s drink again sometime!

Posted by alohapenny at August 30, 2007, 8:00 am
