LTFRB just won't leave Uber alone.
If you have read my previous posts, you probably know by now how much I love Uber. Like if Uber is a person she's my best friend. You know what, screw it. It is indeed my bestfriend. Uber, when I found out about it, I was astounded to know that such service exists and I used it regularly since then. The first time I heard about LTFRB coming after Uber, I was outraged. And now that they are actuallymaking a move opting to shut them down, I just lost my faith in the government. Completely.
I don't know who they are doing this for, if it's a tax-related issue or an issue of cab companies
We were supposed to eat at Burger King for dinner but their branch which used to have seating is closed for renovation. In a snap, my sister and I decided to go eat inside the cinemas and we picked the movie in the next closest time. (Weirdos).
So I walked into the movie house without any expectations
So the first installment of this year's Trendsetter's Bazaar started last Friday and ends today (October 17-19).
I went to the other bazaar last Friday (Beauty Fair 2014 in Eton Centris) because it was a far more familiar place. But I just could not stop thinking about the Trendsetter's Bazaar knowing how huge World Trade Center is compared to Centris Tent. Okay, so I got over my cheapskateness not-wanting-to-pay-for-entrance, at around 1pm I finally decided to get my @$$ over there even if I had to be alone. Good thing I have my ever-trusty Uber App, making my quick trip to an unfamiliar place alone could feel a lot safer. My black Toyota Altis ride came shortly, and we got to the venue in just about 30 minutes ( I guess). I looked for the Gadget District right away. It was a very bad timing, actually, I wasn't looking for gadgets at the moment except for Z3 that I'm not looking at buying NOW. And I am still in this make-up era. Anyhoo. Here's how the Gadget District looked like:

Trendsetter Bazaar World Trade Center Oct 17-19, 2014
The Trendsetter bazaar this year has a Gadget District--which is cool! Because I love all things tech! I can talk all day about it (if you wanted me to).
I haven't paid much attention to this until today when I was looking for a bazaar to go to. I was looking for complimentary tickets and it's too bad that all giveaways have closed (well, because the event starts today).
See their poster below to see if there are any participants you are interested in:

If you think you can't wait, you can always visit the country's trusted online gadget stores and get your hands on one as soon as now (and at a MUCH lower price).
Watch the promotional video here:
Glorietta weekend food market--Gourmet Park Lane has been standing in Glorietta for seems to be weeks now. If you are keen on weekend markets, you might want to drop by and look around. It's a very short 2-part food lane (1 between BPI and Lush, and 1 along the wing going to SM).
I've found some interesting food I usually wanted to buy online but couldn't wait long enough for pre-order. (LOL) The delivery date scares me away! It feels like they're telling me, "Okay, you're gonna have to crave for 3 days". No, no. I just can't do that to myself.
What I brought home yesterday:
Red Velvet Crinkles with Cream Cheese Frosting (P150 - box of 6's) from Miss Matamis (I kept coming back for this one!)
Candy Apple (P50) from Olivia (P80) from Olivia (The cupcake is so soft and tasty!)
Ready-to-eat ham (P1,000 per kilo) from Joy's Ham (I can't find their website/FB page)
