I went on a "me time" last August 17 and was supposed to attend two events, but due to the sudden heavy rains that Sunday Morning, one event at the U.P. Town Center was forced to cancel since their venue got flooded.
So, I went on a walkathon from U.P. Town Center to Ateneo de Manila University. Yes, you read it right, I walked when I was supposed to take a jeepney ride. I assumed that the two venues were just near, and after walking past two blocks I realized that it's not that near after all. But then, I already started walking, so a little exercise won't hurt (pinanindigan ko na lang ang paglalakad).
I went to the Babypalooza Bazaar, a two day event held last August 16 and 17, 2014 which started from 10:00 AM until 7:00 PM at the Walter Hogan Conference Center in Ateneo de Manila University (near gate 3).

The team is spearheaded by organizers Celeste and Kat. They started way back November of 2012 for their first ever Babypalooza Bazaar.
The bazaar is a baby and mommy fair in Metro Manila, Philippines which caters to new and expectant parents, not to mention the new and expectant grandparents too!

Visitors of the event will be able to find pre-loved items (still in great condition) and brand new products and services for babies, toddlers and mommies (and now even for daddies).

The first time I joined their bazaar was with my officemate promoting my services for personalized mugs as souvenir items. After some observation and having enough budget, I joined them again as My Pink Dragon for the 4th Babypalooza Bazaar last November 23, 2013 selling/promoting baby and kids products with my sister selling authentic Jansport bags.

The 7th Babypalooza Bazaar would be something that newbie and expecting parents (let's include the grandparents, along with the aunts and uncles) will look forward to.
The organizers of the Babypalooza Bazaar also have their own actual store, The Spotted Elephant located at #38 Magiting corner Mahiyain Streets, Teachers Village, Quezon City.
Note: I would like to apologise for this late blog, was having some internet connection issues for the past weeks.
