SM Cyberzone Santa Rosa Laguna Launch



Did you know that you can just go to one place in a mall to find the latest gadgets available in the market. You don’t really need to do a lot of canvassing in many places because there’s a place in a mall where all the “tekkie” stores converge. It’s the Cyberzone located in most SM Malls.
The latest of which was recently launched in SM. Sta. Rosa, Laguna.


SM Cyberzone Santa Rosa Laguna Launch




Tekkie Tekkie Muna (Please come with me on a journey, siguradong di ka magsisisi), did you know that you can just go to one place in a mall to find the latest gadgets available in the market. You don’t really need to do a lot of canvassing in many places because there’s a place in a mall where all the “tekkie” stores converge. It’s the Cyberzone located in most SM Malls.

The latest of which was recently launched in SM. Sta. Rosa, Laguna.



The above picture was the ribbon cutting led by celebrity-turned politician governor Dan Fernandez, and Arlene Arcillas, Mayor of Sta. Rosa, Laguna. It happened a few minutes after we arrived at the place, so I took some shots while we were waiting for the program to start.




 
We got there too early while the rest of the organizers where still in the works preparing for the blessing and the program proper. But we were already amazed of the neatness of the place, plus the availability of many stores which caters to almost all your “tekkie” needs.

Computers, gadgets, and whatever “tekkie” – they will surely have it! But let show you some more shots of the preparations done for the program.



Great table centerpiece – flowers in a fish bowl filled with green liquid


Green and white balloons decorate the place – so the color of the day is indeed green and white!


These ladies were there to greet, and charm, all visitors – with their green and white sexy outfits



Globe Telecom store had its own store blessing that day



Saying some prayers for the whole SM Cyberzone, a different priest with some special VIP  SM Officials and guests



The priest eventually blessed all the stores in Cyberzone, starting with Xperia, the very first store at the right side of the entrance. Other stores in Cyberzone include TechnoKid, Globe, Green Telcom, CompLink, ComWorks, Memo Xpress, Ink All You Can, Asianic, Samsung, Games and Gadgets, Mega One, PC Express and CD-R King, and many other smaller booths located at the center of the Cyberzone.























We were then greeted by a lot of cosplayers with their fancy costumes mostly of superheroes like Ironman, Thor, Wolverine, Batman plus a lot of Transformers characters.



Cosplayers in superhero costumes pus the Transformers were there as well – Bumblebee visited later that afternoon

 Also tried out a photobooth setup just for the launch -  a few wacky shots combined in one photo


 Just some of my blogger friends who were there at the event


 There will always be food, of course, in every event – can’t enjoy with an empty stomach


Just some of the VIPs and guests at their respective tables

The Maria Ressa Book Launch


October 12 was a day that was already marked as a very special event on my calendar.  This was the day when Maria Ressa, Rappler’s CEO and Executive Editor, was going to launch her book entitled “10 days, 10 years: From Bin laden to Facebook. When I saw Rappler announced it online, I was ecstatic and quickly shared it on my Facebook page. I wouldn’t want to be stingy and keep all the great news to myself. It was an event that needs to be shared and appreciated with everyone. I made sure I won’t missed it, and that others would know and have the opportunity to celebrate the book launch with Maria.
