Red Box, Greenbelt
Always the unsuspecting subject (or should I say victim?) of many covert plots in the past, I again fell “prey” to a surprise get-together recently. Specifically, the gathering was my birthday asalto organized by friends where I appeared emotionally vulnerable once more.
It all started when Madge Lejano asked me to drop by Red Box to pick her up as we were scheduled to watch a movie. Supposedly, she was in a pre-production meeting with a client and some friends from Davao who wanted to see what the place could offer. When the doors were opened, I heard shrieks of “Happy Birthday” from dear, familiar people. They were there to celebrate with me and I was touched deeply and became quickly teary-eyed.
The venue for my birthday asalto was exactly the place I wished for. Earlier, I told Madge about having my birthday party at Red Box with friends from the wedding industry. My plan was virtually realized. Everyone (well, almost everyone) was in pink. Madge’s angels reigned on the stage as they upstaged each other with their singing prowess—Jesy, Aaron, Joel, Felicity and Steve. Thank you, Maan, Dondon and Erron for joining in the celebration.
My staff from Events! Events!—Brian, JB, Jona and Joy—were also present. Top photographer-friends Mimi Abesamis and Karl de Leon made the night extra memorable. (Mimi, promise! I am touched. You know what I mean!). Jason Magbanua and Chinky Agregado came as well to enjoy the buffet and the bottomless drinks.
To Madge, my girlfriend, goes my heartfelt gratitude. Thank you very much for making me feel loved and important. I really had a blast!

Jesy, I really had a great time! I didn't know you sing so well. =)

Luzel and Gary, thanks for the kind words. I've gotten a lot of inquiries about your wedding. Sadly, only a few put premium on getting a good coordinator. =) Hehehehe! And yes, it was deja vu. Now, I am kicking myself for I don't have a decent picture with you in your wedding.
Oly, yes! It was really fun! Madge would have invited you if you were here. =)
Madge, thank you again for organizing the whole shebang for me! I am really touched by this. Just the thought alone makes me shiver 'til now.

Joelene, everyone is excited to kick some a** in your wedding. I am putting a lot of pressure on myself (and the team) to make your wedding a truly memorable one. =) See you soon!
