We started the day early as Chattee, Dulce, and I were planning to eat early lunch at PiYESta! so we could be on time for our judging chores. Alas! Orman picked us up from the hotel to have a sumptuous Filipino lunch with Avel, Marz, Dino, and Sir Johnny Abad at Jams in Mt. Sabrina, Tambler Hills. The view was breath-taking. And even when the sun was working extra hard to make us feel its heat, the air lent a cool breeze which made our al fresco lunch very much enjoyable. And the food... well, how can you go wrong with Nilagang Baka, Grilled Tuna Belly, Grilled Tuna Jaw, and Steamed Pompano? Everything was yummy! After lunch, we headed to Donna Congson's Envy Me Salon to have our hair, make up, and nails done.

So yesterday, at 7 am, me, Lyle Santos, Chattee Lara, Brendel Balaga, and Angel Abella boarded a van and, with so much chatter and excitement, headed to General Santos City. Upon arrival, we immediately settled in our rooms at the Family Country Hotel. Shameful but I took up most of the closet space. :P After resting, we ate lunch at Giacomino's Pizza at Robinson's Place. I had their lasagna and their chicken wings combo meal which was more than enough for me. Then, we prepared for our judging duties and a night out. Brendel and Angel had their hair and make up done at Envy Me Salon at Robinson's Mall while Chattee and I prettified ourselves with…
Dance Performance Made of Pure WIN!
Here's a sample clip of one of the dance performances during the dinner after the Mindanao Bloggers Summit 2 here in General Santos City: The performers are members Teatro Ambahanon of the Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Colleges. It was really a very interesting performance. Skills wise and in terms of atheticism, they really gave a 100%. The choreography was artistic. Kinda shocking, but not too bad. Not for minors, though. DIDYA ENJOY IT?! MORE TO COME SOON! :P
