My Studio Azul's Scrap Buffet (2009.07.11)

I had a very productive and packed weekend. I signed up for My Studio Azul's Scrap Buffet this weekend over here. It was pure awesomeness since I got to finish so many layouts at one go and got to meet new friends, aside from reuniting with an old Jungolfer friend of mine.
Six hours of work and I accomplished six layouts and two cards! :) There are a few that I might add more journalings but we shall see. I was cranking layouts at a slower speed at first but got the extra boost to push myself further when I realized that I only got three layouts and one cards done! :P I focused and was able to better choose the paper and cardstock that I wanted. I pictured that papers that I wanted to use and the colors/design that appealed to me than basing myselout on the photos that I got (that was over and beyond needed). Time went so fast and before I knew it...the event was officially over!
Thank you to the organizers (especially Tin Yao) for a successful event - can't wait for the next one! :D
See the below what I was able to "crank out" for this event.

My sketch challenge entry.

The rest are random layouts that I just wanted to do based on the papers that were immense. I was able to "really play" (since leftovers during the buffet are to be left at the party; no take-homes) with Basic Grey, Sei, etc - which would take me forever to decide what to do if these were my own supplies. I have this fear of not being able to cut it to the correct size or that the layout design in my head is not going to work.

Bday Week(end)...still in party mood!

Birthday week(end) came and went. It was pretty cool. I was able to party with so many types of groupies of mine and it definitely started as early as Wednesday (July 1) and I still plan to celebrate again this weekend.. :) The breakdown are as follows:-
  • July1 (Wed) --> lunch with officemates
  • July2 (Thurs) --> lunch with officemate at a different location; dinner with the pit crew
  • July3 (Fri) --> lunch with fav pal (K); special dinner with E
  • July4 (Sat) --> game of golf with pals then lunch at the club; dinner with coolgals
  • July5 (Sun) --> lunch with parents & E at Sango; dinner with extended family (usual Sun dinner but with extra good food)
  • July6 (Mon) --> dinner with best cousin, L

I'm overwhelmed with joy to find out so many people (who I didn't expect) that greeted me in random ways - email, FB, text, call, etc. It was just a wonderful surprise and definitely something I would remember for many years to come.
I'm still hoping for another party but I think I should wait till next year again. :P

There's another bday coming up in a few days...and she's with four paws. E&I are brainstorming on how to celebrate the bday. Keep you all posted on what we decide.

RESTO REVIEW:
SANGO MASTER BURGER
Rockwell, Power Plant
Dad and I had the Master Cheese Burger, which was roughly P130. See picture shown while E got the Chili Master Dog and mom got the Gyudon Rice Meal. It's okay...nothing really special. I do have to say that the veggies (lettuce and tomatoes) are so fresh!!
Sango is constantly compared to Mos Burger chain (one of the most visited establishments by us is in HKG) but E being the biggest fan of Mos, he disagree and I have to be with him on this. If you were to just compare burgers, I think I would prefer Mos Burger (since it's juicier) and Shake-’em Buns or Triple O's of White Spot. :D

Excited for this. Registered and all ready to go. It's now planning what to bring is the question. Got too many tools to decide on. Of course it's only 6 hours or less of scrapping but it will surely be awesome!!! I'm counting down the days to July 11

W@W 10-10-10

WatW 10-10-10 Anniversary Party!

Venue: Fernbrook Gardens, Alabang

E&I got to celebrate WeddingsAtWork 10th Anniversary years. It's 10 successful years of brides&grooms helping each other in planning their weddings. It was a wonderful night and definitely tons and tons of freebees. There were free-nups for the upcoming brides&grooms (which E&I participated in 2007). There was tons of food and there was never a problem with not having enough. The program was great and it was cool sharing all this with our good friends J&N.

Check out the pictures below...
