Ukay Lingerie?

So everything is expensive these days. So many things account to that. First, you havehe price of oil, then the lack of budget due to lack of employment of underemployment. Ha! So many reasons, I suppose. And with the lack of budget arise a new trend in shopping, which caters to those who have less budget. The Ukay-ukay. These are actually relief goods that enter into Asia and has become a lucrative business. I have learned from friends here in the Philippines that not only dresses, bags and shoes can be found at the Ukay stands but also inexpensive lingerie, imagine that!

Sure I have seen bags, clothes, shoes but not lingerie! Something about that just gives me the creeps. I mean, lingerie of someone else... that's highly unimaginable. But because money sucks big time, well, people just buy them. 

Now, if people just look for ways to earn, then maybe they can start buying from the department stores too. Don't get me wrong. I have a few Ukay items as well, but not lingerie! I would buy bags or some tops, but not lingerie. No matter how you wash it, considering you do it my way, it still wouldn't be clean enough to wear. Umm.. But this is just me..

Where Did You Watch the Pacquiao-Marquez 3?

Watching Manny Pacquiao's fights seem to be a happy thing for us Filipinos. We may not be there at the ringside which costs $1200 a seat, but still we manage to get the best seats for the LIVE telecast. Take for example this photo taken by Ronald Zapatos of the Pacquiao-Marquez 3 where people in Ozamiz watched it at the Ozamiz City Gymansium.

Or this one here in Cagayan de Oro, with a buffet lunch at Hotel Del Rio. It was actually fully packed at their Sunset Terrace,Executive and Plazoleta Gay Function halls. What better way to watch than enjoy a sumptuous Filipino Buffet, right?

I am sure that like all previous fights of Manny Pacquiao, certain barangays have prepared for a free screening and that, some neighbors too would gladly share their pay per view with people in their community. And just like what I mentioned in my previous posts, some families have their get together at this time too, thus making it a Manny Pacquiao fight party, lol.. 

So where did you watch the Manny Pacquiao vs Juan Manuel Marquez fight? And what do you think of the result?
