PLDT myDSL Watchpad Crew Judging at MCafe

*Photos taken with Panasonic Lumix LZ10 and Nikon D40 with 70-300mm G Nikkor Lens.

MCafe is my favorite restaurant/bar.  It serves my favorite drink – Rockstar.  We arrived at MCafe at around 4-ish.  Everyone was wearing white.  I was wearing black.  Uh-oh, I forgot that there was a dress code!

Anyway, I just carried on and met with another blogger Liz :).  We were seated on one table together with Isabel Oli *faints* and Ton Vergel De Dios (PLDT Watchpad TVC’s Pianoman).  What’s cooler is that we will be judging the new Watchpad Crew alongside these stars 😀

It’s my first time being a judge of something this big and when I received the invite to be one of the judges for the bloggers I immediately said yes!  It’s so nice being the judge 😛 the contestants wanted to impress us 😛

There were only 8 contestants at to be judged ^_^  It was a gloomy day outside and it was drizzling a bit around Greenbelt when we arrived.  When the event was about to start, the rain poured like crazy!  They had to transfer everything inside :)  I loved how the PR and the organizers were so calm with crisis management.  The show continues!  Having the event inside brought about a more intimate setting 😛

Day started woith the makeup of the day.

Since I was wearing navy blue and black, I applied same color for my eyeshadow.

Forgive me, I haven’t tidied up my brows.  I was super in a rush to the event we were late!

On our way to MCafe…

They look like stars already!

You can check out the PLDT watchpad’s official website here to get to know the new ambassadors of PLDT MyDSL Watchpad.

Seriously, it was so hard to judge, 8 of them are so unique and have great talents.

DJ Scottie of Jam 88.3 is cheating! Hey, no peeking at my judging sheet 😛

Hmm… do I look impressed? 😛

Did lady in Red Blinky and Nikko survive on my sheet? BTW, I’m surrounded by DJs.  Nikko is actually DJ Tyler of Magic 89.9, Scottie of Jam 88.3 left already by this time and of course DJ Vince G of Mellow 94.7 on my side.

Gino and Rhian Ramos, PLDT Watchpad Crew 2009 were asking me and Liz of our top picks 😛

Thanks to Michael Antonio for the shoes! 🙂
