Me and my boyfriend went to SM MOA Arena. AMA threw a big star-studded party there for the students of ABE and AMA. Since my boyfriend is a student in ABE, he bought two tickets, and the one is for me. And this funny thing happened. I was suffering from LBM before the event. I thought I will not be able to witness it. So that night, I took a pill to regulate my vowel movement but when the morning came, I was still sick. That's why I didn't come to my observation in a school that morning. I informed my leader for that matter and shee agreed that I must take a rest. And so I did.
Before 10:00 am, I woke up and get ready for the day. I was quite excited for the event was star-studded and this is my first time to enter MOA Arena, seriously. So I traveled from Marikina to Cubao first. There is where we will take the train to Taft Avenue. This is the easiest way to travel to Pasay. Before we take the train, we ate at KFC in Farmer's Plaza. I don't want to eat anything for my stomach is still ill. But my boyfriend insisted that I must, so I did. I was so glad that when I finished my meal, I didn't feel anything funny. It's like my tummy is normal again, but, just to make sure, I took my medicine again. To prevent something grossy, you know.
After we eat, we headed to the train station to buy tickets. We realized that something is missing, by the way, we are seven in the group. I forgot to tell you. We are missing a member. That's when we realized that one of our friend picked up her girlfriend at their school. So the school is quite far from the train station. We went back to the plaza to wait for them. We saw them, finally, and went back to the train station.
During our travel, of course the train is full of people. And it's sad to say that most of the seats were occupied by men. And they didn't offer us, women, seats. Maybe because were not pretty or their just ungentle to become a gentleman.
So we arrived at Taft Ave. and we noticed that the escalator is still not repaired. Last month, my mother and I went also to Taft. Avenue, that escalator wasn't moving at all so I'm in my hope that once I've travel again to the place, it is repaired. But no, and the funny thing is that the cost of their tickets went up. They said that it is for the betterment of the stations. Well, sad to say, I see no progress at all. Anyways, we went down to take the ride to MOA Arena. And when we got there, I thought the place where we stopped is the entrance, but it is not. We walked a few to the main gate. And when we got into the building, you can hear the sound of loud music coming from the inside. Before we went up, because our tickets were designated in the Upper-Box section of the arena, we've gone to comfort rooms. We took a picture from the photo booth so we can have a souvenir of the event.
Before we could go inside, we've waited for our friend for their tickets were not yet paid. And right after that, we've found out that the tickets, their professor give, are VIP tickets. We got envy for we are the ones who paid the amount for VIP tickets, and yet we didn't have those tickets, instead we got the Upper-box ticket. Evan, one of my friends, tried to talk to their professor if he could switch our tickets and get VIPs to. But he resist to talk to Evan, I got angry at the professor for he can't help his students for that situation. Because I do believe that professors or college faculty members must help their students at any single time. Also, it is their duty to fulfill. But in the end, he didn't help us.
We went upstairs, downstairs, upstairs and downstairs again for, maybe, a couple of times for we are in hope that anyone could help us. Yet, we gave up and decided to watch and enjoy the show. The fun part of the event was many celebrities joined and performed in the stage. There performed Ej Falcon, Aiza Suegerra, Neggi, Ate Gay, Gloc 9, Donnalyn Bartolome, James Reid, Daniel Padilla, Kz Tandingan and many more. The event was entitled Battle of the Sexes (Gender). The mechanics was each group will perform according to what gender they picked at the draw lots. If a boy dance group picked to showcase a dance of a girl, that is what they are going to perform, so vice versa to girl dance group. This is a new way of dance battle for me so I guess, it would be fun.
In the middle of the contest, many groups showcased their dances not to participate in the competition. Well, I guess they just joined to represent their branch because their performances are not worthy to competent (only for me, no offense meant). Well, it is true that joining a dance competition is a big challenge and needed a lot of practices and preparations because I also experience it when I was in PLMar Dance Troupe.
So, after the dance battle, they also gave the audiences a mini concert featuring Mocha Girls and Rocksteddy. Mocha Girls wear provocative costumes for men to get wild over them (for entertainment purposes). When it was Rocksteddy's turn on stage, the crowd went wild while they sing their famous and signature OPM songs. We, together with my friends, head-banged and enjoyed every moment of the event. This is the last time that they will be able to come at the event so we cherished every minute of the event.
This experience was fun and mew for me. For I have met new friends and made new memories with them. I hope that this will not be the last time for us to get together in one event. And I hope that once we see each other's faces again, we are indeed successful in the careers we chose to take.
