Awkwardly, A Nightlife


   I am definitely not a city girl. Even my profession isn't in sync for a mundane city nightlife. At least only in my viewpoint. However, two days ago, me and some of my colleagues decided to take a break from the monotonous life that we have and  'painted the town red' that night.  You know, we went out and had a good time in buffet dinner and bunching up in a comedy bar along Tomas Morato- things that we don't normally do.

  It was so crazy indeed when we landed at Zirkoh Comedy Bar. Two of my colleagues were invited to sing onstage by a bunch of gay comedians who randomly looks like Jamby Madrigal, Mr. Bean and Steven Tyler (lol!). But before doing so, they were verbally abused first by those jesters. I won't stand a bit if  ever I'll be at  their shoes but hail to Sir Juvir and Mam Sol cause they survived the abusive situation well. When the comedians learned that we are teachers, they were face palming and had this alarming look like we're not supposed to be there! It was an awkward moment. lol. I presumed they were toss between to taunt us with insults or not. All in fairness, wherever we go, there's this unspoken respect for teachers like me. Are we lucky or what? Hell, yes. So the comedians immediately minimized their unpleasantly toward my colleagues because we are teachers.

Nevertheless, the show was a total laugh, just don't count the perverted antic. Then we called it a night at 3 a.m.

Go, sing your heart out. The limelight is but once in a life time. 
Wally Bayola is a total performer. It was so hilarious the way he imitates

 and life will become a continual feast"

Noah's Park

http://Fans2Earn.com/?ref=250676
Prior to my 31st birthday last week, I was kind of undecided whether to celebrate it or not. You know, I'm not the sort of  a party nuts (not the exuberant one) but I do want to celebrate occasions and family affairs in a very special way. Thanks to me for browsing the net, I came across with a friend's page about Noah's Park. So me and my family spent my post-birthday celebration at Noah's Leisure Park (Hotel and Resort).


 Noah is located at Brgy. San Isidro, Rodriguez, Rizal (besides Avilon Zoo). It has a cozy ambiance and a relaxing environment. We had so much fun swimming on the clear water pool and feasting on grilled sea foods and other foods that we brought for my birthday. My two-year old daughter Sabina enjoyed her first swimming experience with great gusto. Family bonding is truly a piece of heaven on earth so I am so blessed to have such wonderful family to celebrate with on my birthday.

Just scroll down to view some of our photos during our stay in Noah's Park.
