DXB w@wies' 2nd EB

Last November 28 (Wednesday), we were able to hold the 2nd EB of the Dubai-based w@wies. You might be asking for the meaning of "w@wies"!?! Well, I consider it as a *sisterhood*... of members of the yahoogroup for Weddings@Work. This group is composed of bride-to-be's (b2b) and a few husband-to-be's (h2b) who are very hands-on for their wedding preparations.

Actually, this is already the 2nd EB...the 1st one was held sometime in October. Attendees were: Me & Randy, Emtee & Rico, Shelai, Grace, Kelvin & Ann (of Imagineer Digital). 1st EB was held in Black Canyon Resto near Wonderland (yep...where Pokwang & Claudine Barretto was working for the movie, DUBAI). Here's a sample picture of the 1st EB: (Sorry for the size, I was not able to retain the original size...



Since we enjoyed each other's company during the 1st EB, we decided to hold the 2nd EB...also to meet other w@wies who didn't make it in the 1st EB. And also, to consume my remaining "Buy one, Take one" stubs in Pizza Express (sayang kasi, hehehe..next time daw Dunkin Donuts naman, meron din akong stubs...hahahah!)

We really had fun making chismisans of anything under the sun, hahaha...therefore, I decided to itemize the things I learned that night...hehehe:

(1) Di pala laging late si Emtee, kase this time, siya pinakauna...pero teka, late pa rin sya!!!...9:++ na sya dumating, 9PM ang usapan, hahaha...
(2) Shelai was busy with work...di tuloy sya nakaattend...same with the other w@wies like Grace, Gladys & Mary Grace
(3) Yna & Nelson are currently staying in Deira, while Gayle is from Al Ghusais (layo, sis, sobra!) and Peejay is from Satwa. Emtee from Hor Al Anz and Rico from Fish Roundabout...
(4) Gum paste pala ang tawag dun sa parang caketopper ni Emily Uy...thanks, Gayle! Parang gusto ko talaga ng cake nya.
(5) I learned na kelangan ko nang gawin ang misalette ko kasi si Emtee, meron na...atatibat talaga...eh July ka pa kaya! haler! hehehe...
(6) *Daig ng maagap ang masipag...* Yna-Nelson is the most OC couple among the group...eh 2008 pa pala sila...buti pa sila dami pang time!
(7) Yna is a co-PLMayer...pati pala si Chelle of Ernest...uyyy, pare pareho tayong mga iska! hehehe...
(8) Rico is also a PSP geek...ehehehe...
(9) Meron din palang *penholder* sa entourage...kung gugustuhin mo, hehehe...ek ek lang..hehehe...
(10) Marami na pala kaming guests!...ayayay..pano ba liitan ang list?!?
(11) Gayle and Peejay are both from San Pedro, Laguna...and I'm from Binan, Laguna!!!
(12) Gayle's bridesmaid (or MOH?) is also from PLM...magna cum laude din, ka-batch ko rin...o divah, daming similarities!
(13) 2-hours ang travel time from Jumeirah 1 to Bur Dubai pag Tuesday...kainis!
(14) Pwedeng maging kamukha ng pandesal ang puto seko
(15) Tuwing November, nagkakasakit si behbe, este si Rico pala... =) because of the weather change
(16) Eto pinakamatindi...."Pag bago ang waiter, wag nyong tatarantahin...lalo syang matataranta..." anyenye!

For sure, marami pakong nakalimutan i-mention. But it was really a blast! But then, let me introduce to you my co-w@wies present in the 2nd EB:
