A&D Weekend Guide: DVA Bazaar, Project Mom Favorite Finds Fair, Total Girl Model Academy, Museo Pambata Sa San Lo and More!

It's been a while since I did a A&D Weekend Guide and I've been seeing a lot of flyers for events and activities this weekend so I decided to round them up!

It's payday pala yesterday that's why there's a lot of bazaars and sales happening this weekend!

If you are in the Makati or BGC area, you can check out the DVA Bazaar. I've been invited to participate in this bazaar but never got to. Also I've been wanting to check this out, hopefully I'll have time this weekend to drop by!

 For more details, visit DVA Bazaar!

Project Mom Favorite Finds Fair pilots this weekend at Glorietta! Will write more about this event on my next blog post! But do check it out when you're in Glorietta this weekend!

And if you have girls age 8 to 13 and hope to be a model in the future, Total Girl Model Academy is happening this Sunday, April 19 at the Glorietta Activity Center. Hit two birds with one stone, shop at Project Mom Fair then take your daughter to Total Girl Model Academy!

The Model Academy has two main exciting parts: 1) The Workshops, where participants will learn basic modelling, how to find their own personal style, and how to pose for the camera, and 2) The Go-See, where they can apply what they’ve learned from the Workshops on the runway.

Bring your kids to Museo Pambata Sa San Lo this Saturday! It's free and the first 100 kids get a prize!

SM's 3-Day Sale is happening at SM Mall of Asia, SM Bicutan, SM Clark, SM Rosales, SM Lucena, SM Lipa, SM Cauayan, SM Cagayan De Oro and SM Valenzuela! And if you're an avid SM shopper, you'd  know they offer additional 10% off from 10AM to 12NN!

If you're from the south or will be in Sta. Rosa this Saturday, April 18, Gymboree Sta. Rosa officially opens its doors to the public and as an open house special, there's Free Gym Play from 9-11AM!

Plan your weekend na and enjoy!!!

Easter Egg Hunting Fail!

Last Easter Sunday, we went to Sofitel to join the Easter activity! It's our first time to join any activity. I was excited for Y!

Picture-picture muna before leaving! Pwede na ba ang pose?! Haha

The Easter Egg Hunt event was held at the tent outside the South Parking. The ticket says event starts at 10:30AM, we got there around 11AM. There was so many people! The lines to the reception booth was messy, by age pala.

O diba? Ang gulo?!

When we got inside, ang dami na din tao! Jampacked! There were no seats na. So we went around to see kung ano meron. There were booths from the sponsors, a mini Gymboree play gym, a stage, movies being shown....

Seeing how many people there was makes me want to go home na. I hate crowds right now. But this is for Y so we stayed for awhile pa. They eventually added more chairs to accommodate the crowd, and we got to sit! We ate what's inside of the loot bags hehe... And I was getting bored by the minute. I think Y was din..

When it was time for the egg hunt proper na, Y wasn't allowed pala! Hay naku. Fail talaga! Buti na lang kids lang ang may bayad! So we decided to leave na lang. Last picture with the egg before leaving!

We went to Gymboree na lang. I've been wanting to enroll Y in one of the classes! So it was perfect timing because they were having a promo! Mas nag enjoy pa si Y dito! First love nga niya si Gymbo diba?!

Hindi pa naman din totally fail. We'll go a trial class next week! Hope Y will like it!

Baby, Party Venues, and Swimsuits

I had a busy week, hence the lack of post.


Today was a busy day. I went to World Trade Exchange, Home, SM San Lazaro, SM Mall of Asia, Along Came Baby, Home again, then Binondo! All in a span of eight hours!


This morning, BOS and I went to World Trade Exchange to check out a possible venue for Y's first birthday party. Since our first option was booked on our date, I have to look for another one. I want to check this out since it's near our house, it's in Manila, very convenient as most of our guest lives in Manila.


Verdict? Rizal Hall is pwede na. I can't vision our party in the venue. I don't like the marble floors (which won't be noticeable when tables are set-up already. I don't like the poste in the middle, but what I liked was the big windows, natural light! Great for pictures. 

The Juan Luna Hall, I like this more than the other but it's a bit masikip.

After viewing the venue, they gave us a photo album to browse other parties that were held there. I will call them when we're decided to hold our party there. Went back home. Then went to SM San Lazaro to have lunch with Amma. After our lunch, I went to straight to SM Mall of Asia.

 Went to Kamiseta first because I wanted to try their swimsuit. 

Sizing was off.

Nice design and color but the venus cut is not working for me

Outfit: H&M Floral Tank, U Wide Pants, Sanuk Flats

Posh Kamiseta Fitting Room

Since it was a fail at Kamiseta, I went to Bayo. I love their swimsuits! And I ended up with this. Yes, horizontal stripes will make me look fatter but I don't care anymore. Haha! I was in a hurry so I bought it na.

Love the color!

After Bayo, I went to Hypermart to buy some groceries. Then off I go. I was not supposed to go to the Along Came Baby bazaar but since it was on the way home and I've got some time to spare, I decided to drop by.

Photo from Google Images

I had high expectation of this event, I was looking forward to going to this but sadly I was bit disappointed. From the photos below, you'll probably know why. 

The place was so bare. Some booth's were just tables and chairs. Only a few have their own "booth". The few sellers (concessionaires?) I already saw them last week at Expo Mom so it took me fifteen minutes to browse the whole place. My thinking though is maybe because this is first Along Came Baby? Konting sponsors? I can't compare them to Expo Mom kasi wala talaga. I hope the next Along Came Baby will be better.

This is the only thing I'm happy about from the bazaar!

I will be enrolling Y soon in Gymboree so the voucher is great! But this is for Greenbelt 5 and Serenda only.

I went home and came in just in time for Y's meal time. After her meal, I took her with me to Binondo. Amma went to her mananahi to get her clothes. It was a long day. I also cooked dinner, weekends are the only time I can cook! Tonight's ulam is Green Chicken Curry! Yummy!

PS. Oh, if you're wondering what the swimsuit is for, it's for tomorrow. We will be staying at Sofitel until Monday and we will take Y swimming hence the swimsuit! :)
