Last Wednesday's Christmas Party

Finally! Weekends couldn't come soon enough. I've been getting home late the past few days since our schedule changed, having me directly contend with the heavily-congested area of Bagong Ilog at 6:00 PM. It used to only take me an hour to get home, but now it's a full two torturous hours on the road, in a tightly-cramped FX ride with strange-smelling people. No matter. Today I'm going to scoff at the Universe and do whatever non-work related endeavor I can think of. RnR is part of my job too, damnit.

So anyway, last Wednesday, our company had a very classy and stylish red-carpet Christmas party held at the NBC Tent in The Fort. The program started off quite slowly (almost felt sorry for Pops Fernandez and Sinosikat -- everyone was busy taking photos or eating), but as soon as the Kitty Girls (Manila's answer to The Pussycat Dolls) started shaking their jellies on the stage, everyone's adrenaline level started rising. The Overtones, the band who performed right after the Kitty Girls, also had quite a set. They did covers of All I Want by Toad The Wet Sprocket, 3 AM by Matchbox 20, Semi-Charmed life by Third Eye Blind, Message In A Bottle by The Police, and other old school hits with a mosh-pit of rowdy, loud, and drunk yuppies in front of the stage.

As usual, the photo parade is after the jump.

Kuya Joey's moment with the Kitty Girls. I must admit, they did a very nice performance. The girl in the middle had a great voice, as well as the girl on Kuya Joey's right.

And me!
