The Great British Festival at BGC (Late Post)

LATE POST!

This event was held last February at Bonifacio Global City High Street but I still want to blog it since it was one of the best events I’ve ever had and not just because of FREE foods but everything! 

British Festival was a three-day event (Feb. 24-26). The event was mainly composed with street artists, art workshops, car displays, British fashion and foods.I love this British Got Talent booth! I was supposed to audition na eh but I think it’s not the right time. Chos! Hahaha. There was a cutie guy na contestant daw ng BGT that was in the booth but I haven’t given a chance to take a picture with him kasi I’m shy and I don’t know him rin kasi. Look how cute these miniatures of United Kingdom landmarks that were set in the venue! You don’t need to travel to UK for a photo with the Big Ben, Buckingham Palace or travel to the magical world of Harry Potter to see Platform 9 3/4. Hahaha!#TitasOfManila #LolasOfManila #PabebesOfThePhilippines

I’m with my british friend Kat. She’s the one who tagged me on a post regarding this event. We never thought that we were able to go since we have school works that time and lot of things to do pero OMG! We made it!

Sobrang saya namin sa free foods. Actually, lahat ng nasa shopping bags namin puro foods din. Hahaha.

Firmoo + Giveaway

Firmoo is one of the most popular online eyeglasses store. Years of expertise in optical industry enable Firmoo to offer varieties of prescription eyewear to the consuming public in high quality yet at extremely affordable prices.

As some of you guys know, I’m wearing graded glasses/lenses for over years now. I can’t live without it. I can’t see anything from afar which avoids me to stalk my crush. No, I mean, to read for a powerpoint presentation pala. 😛 Hahaha. I have astigmatism that needs to change my glasses most of the time to be corrected. And changing my glasses is a big hassle for me. Being a student, sometimes you don’t have enough time to go for a shop due to project deadlines and research works and you spend most of the time in school. Or when you have work and no time to shop. Now, you don’t need to visit eyewear shop frequently because firmoo is here to help us, save up time and money, at the same time.

I know some of you might think of how difficult it is to shop online for eyeglasses. One reason: You don’t know which frames suits you. With firmoo, you just have to click “Try on”

You can also use your own photo to check out 🙂

Second reason: how will you determine your lenses’ grade for your eyeglasses? You need to have a prescription from your doctor.

And after that,you just need to pay and wait for your eyeglasses to arrive. YAY!
