Hillsong United Tour 2011: The Aftermath

It was May 2011 when I heard that Hillsong United will be in the Philippines again through my cousins post. Immediately I checked on ticketnet of the available seats and it was almost full. I informed my friend about it and she was excited to watch as well (I was with her the last time Hillsong United was here :D ). My other cousin who is living in the US read about the thread that we had and she message me in private saying .. "let me know how much is the ticket and it'll be my birthday gift for you and please choose the VIP seat" .. but unfortunately there was no more VIP seats available but only the upper box seats and only 4 seats available so I immediately bought the 4 tickets as I don't want to take the general admission seats .. :)

my buddy angel came along .. :)

THE ENCOUNTER: 

And then after church around 6:30 p.m.  it was still raining but not that hard so I walked going to Quezon Ave., and waited for an FX bound for SM North as I was thinking of having my dinner there. Some minutes pass yet there's still no FX. When someone asked me what time is it, so I answered him. Then he said thanks he started talking to me about what happened to him. The man is a victim of snatching wherein he didn't noticed that he was being robbed in the jeepney. 

SM MOA Eye: Tallest & Biggest Ferris Wheel in the Philippines

It was November 2011 when I noticed the construction of the ferris wheel at the mini theme park of SM Mall of Asia, when I go back in the area February 2012 it was already operational. I learned that it opened last December 16, 2011.

The SM MOA Eye is the largest and tallest ferris wheel here in the Philippines as it towers 160 feet. Just like the Singapore flyer and the London Eye it is bears resemblance to an eye because by riding it you can have the best view of the area.

PAMPANGA: Crucifixion On A Good Friday

In wanting to witness a crucifixion or the re-enactment of Christ's death and the only place I know where they do it is in Pampanga, I was able to convinced my friend who lives there to accompany me. Early morning of some years ago, a good friday, I and one friend left Manila for San Fernando, Pampanga to meet my friend. When we arrived in San Fernando along the way you'll see people carrying a cross while walking barefooted.
