The Meeting of Two PINAYs

Two PINAYs.  Both bloggers.  

They love to travel.

They enjoy exploring new things.

They are young.

They are bubbly.

They are outspoken

And, they are living life to the fullest.

This is what I saw when I witnessed the meeting of two PINAYs last September 27, 2011.
Two PINAYs - PINAY Travelista and Possibly PINAY.
No. It's not their names, of course.  These are the names of the blog they maintain.


Pinay Travelista is my friend and co-member of the Iligan Bloggers Society.  She is Lisa Marie Mirasol or Lai for short.

Possibly Pinay is a freelance writer for the Experience Travel and Lifestyle Magazine. She is in Iligan to make an article for the said magazine about Iligan and Iligan's celebration of the Diyandi Festival.   She is Eileen Campos.

Lai and Eileen have been together the whole day going around the city with other IBS members.   And I was at work, being tortured by the fun they are having.   Finally, 5 o'clock came and I was off to meet them at 9rs.

As I was not feeling so well by late afternoon, I thought of just having dinner with them and then go home to  rest and probably sleep early.  But as we ate dinner and the conversations got more interesting, though a bit formal, I changed my mind and decided right then and there to tag along with them.  And think of rest later. hehehe... I told myself, I already missed a lot the whole day, I might as well have some fun  with what's remained of their itinerary for the night.

After dinner, we went to MSU-IIT to see for a few minutes the Coronation Night of Miss Iligan 2011.   From there, we headed for the Iliganon Restobar.  And this is where the fun started as the venue became more relaxed and casual. 

This was an important night for Lai.  She joined a contest sponsored by Eileen through her Possibly Pinay Blog and Lai won the contest.   Eileen said she was happy to have been assigned in Iligan City as she will meet in person the winner of her contest, and at the same time save on shipping cost, hehe.  The main prize of the contest is a travel bag with wheels.  I personally liked the bag.  It's nice.  

More prizes for Lai

 

 This is also a very important day for Eileen.  It's her birthday!  She said it was the first time that she was on the road on her birthday.  The photo above is taken by Pat.  A modeling pose of Eileen, kind of endorsing the Iliganon Shake.  :-D

For Eileen's birthday, we treated her with Iliganon Pizza and Durian Shake.

The IBS bloggers.  

I took the picture but I have never thought of joining them.  It never crossed my mind to join them in the photo.  I could have let Pat take the picture.  Tsk. tsk. tsk.

Well at least I have a photo of me over at 9rs taken by Pat. 

I think we separated ways past 10pm.  But I was very happy I tagged along.  Even when I was late for work the following day, it was worth it.  I had fun.  And that's all that mattered to me.  :-D
