300

Written last march 09 (grammy time)

Just the other day, I woke up early so before I go to work I’d be able to catch all the performances for the grammys. In fact it was on of the reminder in my phone’s calendar. But as I expected I was late and I waited for a while for Rihanna’s performance but I was running late for work as well so I did not finish the show. and I thought I missed it. When I get to work my officemate showed me a news from the net about Rihanna and Chris Brown trouble. Too bad, I was rooting for this couple. In fact when I learned that they were having a concert in the country, weeks before Nov 17, I was deciding I am definitely flying to Manila for the concert me & my bestfriend tweety. It was even amazing that Globe is sponsoring and I thought- id look for Padrino – you know friends from higher places to get us to the front row! And front row we went!

300 (not the movie)

Allow me to quote Celine Lopez in her column, “ I will not apologize for liking Rihanna at my age” my bestfriend, tweety and I will Ditto to that! (Actually, she like Miley Cyrus as well ( in fact tweety has got all these Dvd compilation of all the Hannah Montana series so apologizing is a far out idea).
November 17, It was one fun day watching Rihanna and Chris Brown at The Fort Concert ground in Taguig. Indeed it was a double whammy for all the audience having watched two concert in one.
We stayed at South of market Condo aptly named for being south of market market and across Serendra in a friends condo. As in practically when you look up from the venue you’d see our window and vice versa.
Chris Brown is hot! Full of energy and good looks. No wonder all girls are just screaming their lungs out. Tweety and I would kid around that that Rihanna is one lucky girl . Tweety would gush!
From Iloilo I would travel and as soon as I get to Tweety’s hotel in Makati we immediately went to ticketworld to buy our P300 ticket knowing the implication. ( we will be in with the crowd ) While we were lining up at the mall we were with some mall utility buying their ticket as well availing discount. We were making fun of the fact that we have to buy tickets in the 300 area just to have it and if ever its just going to be our donation to the promoter.
It was such an auspicious day! We just have to wait for the security chief to bring us to the Platinum area where most of the celebrities are Sam Milby, Karyl, the models, mtv vjs, Tesa Prieto Valdez in her grand get-up where every one else is dressed down she is her usual standout. Everybody’s having so much fun especially during Chris browns part of the concert, I think that was everyone’s sentiment _ that Chris part of the concert is more fun than that of Rihannas.
The 300 ticket is still in my carel, Chris and Rihanna fought and yet again kissed and made up after the very public and very physical struggle which ended in court. And me, well - I am just looking forward to more concerts that my company is sponsoring!
