May 27 Thursday
Left the house around 2pm with my fiancée to pick up my friend Aisha. This is a much awaited day for all of us, since its going to be our first time to watch Phil. Fashion Week. Thanks to my sister, I was able to get hold of these fab tickets.
We agreed to meet my sister at Fort Bonifacio at the Army Headquarters. I took C5 road & made an exit at McKinley Hill. Im not really familiar with that area, good thing I have my handy atlas map to help me out. Its a very posh area, beautiful condominiums and I passed by the British Embassy and Korean & Chinese International Schools. There is also an area called The Piazza, where there are numerous restaurants and on the other side there were some Buildings, for Call Center.
We just arrived on time to pick up my sister & her friend, it was about 3pm. The gates of SMX will open around 5pm to its guests, we arrived an hour earlier. so we killed our time to take pictures around.
We are watching for Ms Alodia Cecilia, but I wasn't expecting to watch my fave designer, Veejay Floresca on the same runway & he's doing the finale...Lucky Day!
