School diaries: It's More Fun in the Philippines

Okay let's first have a break on those outfit posts from Bicol. I'm gonna share to you guys what I am doing now (this one's not a backlog! hooray! lol) Okay enough with the blabber. So one of our major subject required us to go to SMX for the Philippine Travel Mart. If we're facebook friends, twitter friends or friends in real life, you know that I am a tourism student & you now understand why I went to smx earlier. So for those high school students especially the graduating students, who wants to take up BST, you guys must go to events like this. 

This is where you can book cheap flights & accommodations in different provinces that you wish to visit. Before you can enter the venue, you must first buy a ticket in a booth just in front the entrance of the area. The ticket costs 50php but if you are a student, you just have to show your ID to the cashier and they'll give you a 10% discount. Nowadays, 10% discounts are really a big help. Agree?
My friends and I arrived at SMX at around 11am. Some booths are giving freebies when you liked their Facebook page. The others has a free tasting corner on their booth and I think that is a good strategy in order to attract customers. If in case you want to visit the place, I suggest you go there at around 10am cause it is the time where booths are giving out freebies and eco bags. 
This one's the municipal hall of Cavite.
And guess who we saw at the place!!! the first lady, Imelda Marcos. I am no paparazzi my friend just asked me to take a picture of her. So I gave my very best to be able to take a picture of her and this one's the most "brilliant" & "perfect" photo that I took of her. *pats self on the back* 
So moving on, we saw this monitor and we fell inlove with it haha just kidding! This is now our time!! *drum roll* the obligatory monitor shot with the fishes under the sea haha!
I wasn't able to have decent outfit photos because it rained so hard earlier :( #bloggerproblems. So please forgive me. I promise to make bawi on my next post.
