Panagbenga 2010
Went to Baguio over the weekend for the Panagbenga Flower Festival in Baguio, and well, all I could say is I really hope there was more.
I was expecting it to be really grand, being Panagbenga’s 15th anniversary, but I was disappointed. We opted to pay the 50-peso seats, and realized that we could not view “properly” because two lanes were used. Couldnt take good photos cause there were “slr photographers” all over. The floats were so-so, there’s even one that’s got super “few” flowers (like smb’s?). Thought it was too commercialized.
But of course, who am I to complain (lol, after all the whining hehehe) there must be a reason. Regardless, kudos to the organizers cause I know it really is hard to put up a major event like this.
I love Baguio, it’s one of my fave places in the country, so I hope next year would be better. Hehehe. Would have wanted to have Panagbenga custom travel mugs to give to my fam as pasalubong, but cant find so I just bought toys and stuff.

Pacquiao Wins Over Cotto
Congratulations, Manny Pacquiao!!!
Everybody say “woohoooo!”
Cotto literally became Pacman’s punching bag (maygulay!)… Eyes hit on the third round, lips smashed on the sixth… seventh, ahhhhh.. fight ended on the 12th round… referee took pity on Cotto. disability appeal anyone?
Uhmm, it’s not really nice to be all happy when someone’s hurting but Manny won, so wooohooo!
Now, Pacquiao is officially a boxing superstar! And critics and boxing enthusiasts the world over seem to agree. With his seventh belt, champion in seven weight classes, Pacquiao is the king.
I bet Manny’s next ad is something about lice. Pantiris ng Cotto.
Bwehehe.
