Ready, set, SALE! Hosting & Shopping becomes my sport at Alabang Town Center's Red Bucket Sale!

I am a champion for everyone wins at the Paint the Town Red Sale, where I literally got to paint the 'Town' red thanks to the Alabang Town Center who trusted with their much-awaited, highly-attended main event, the Red Bucket Sale! Behold, the fashion stadium! Your only weapons? Fashion smarts and that coveted red bucket! 

This mall is very special to me for I grew up in Alabang Hills, and so before I get any more nostalgic, let me tell you why the Alabang Town Center's Red Bucket Sale, is extra special for me: It's because not only is the ATC one of my most favorite malls, but also because I got to share hosting duties with me lovely sister, Natalie Viernes. 

 My sis and I briefing the ladies (and gents) who came ready to shop 'til they dropped... then fell in line again. It's Shop. Drop. Repeat! 15 minutes on the clock... 

BUCKET ako napagod? Why did I get exhausted? Certainly not from hosting, talking non-stop or pushing the shoppers but because I too was blessed to have my own red bucket and shop away; and boy, was it so hard! So easy when I am the one just counting down the clock and giving the shoppers a pep talk, but it's so different when you're inside the Red Bucket Fashion arena! Check out my video below as I huffed, puffed and tried to squeeze in my items into my very own red bucket. I got a good workout! See, shopping is truly a sport! 

There were so many waves so here's another Day 2 video of me conditioning the Red Bucket athletes for the most exciting, exhilarating fashion ride this year: 

And this time... we get to walk back to Day 1... here I am opening this splendid day! RED-y, set, go!!! 

Can't get enough of this red-hot fashion action! Check out this video below too... If only I can host and shop every single day... 

And of course, events won't be complete without my cattle call! Here I am gladly doing some V.O.s before passing on the microphone torch to my sister for the rest of the afternoon waves!

It was such a memorable day! Here I am on the TOP Spot! I got to shop 7,000 pesos worth of items! Sweeeeet!!! We all can get used to this clothes buffet sport! Even the gentlemen who availed tickets had tons of fun too! 

Simply a RED-ical experience! Over 2,000 clothing items replenished after every run... 60 shoppers per wave... and only 15 minutes to full your bucket to the brim. Only this game puts your shopping, choosing, folding and stuffing skills to the test! 

 Ta-ta... Shop more I gotta!!!

Camp Master Mary says "We CAN and We WILL" (With Friso Four)

I just can't stop raving about the milk that even I am crazy four (for), yes you guessed that right, it's Friso Four! I will forever be thankful for being part of the 2015 Friso Fun Camp experience as its official campaign events host. And getting all those free cans of milk are a big help to me too! My son loves drinking it and so do I - with its delicious and refreshing taste, that even moms love! 

Believe it or not, whenever my son and I drink our Friso milk from our Friso CANS (which is another one of our many bonding activities), we know that we CAN do anything we put our hearts into! And for me, that includes hosting events, and I definitely loved hosting our recent FRISO FUN CAMP, this time at the Alabang Town Center! 

Here are some of my fun and quirky insights as host / camp master of Friso Four: 

1. Turn your "Can't s" into "Cans" and make sure that you have a Can of Friso Four too! Yes, we all can achieve our dreams. Like for me, hosting events has been one of my many big dreams, and I can very well remember how I prayed hard for this - the chance to enjoy what hosting gives me - good pay, pride and fun freebies and other fringe benefits! I remember all my efforts to be given the chance by people who at first didn't know what I was capable of neither did they believe in me. But getting one foot in is not even half of the job. It's staying here for as long as I can, and that is tempering my behaviour that means staying professional even when I feel tired, mad or hungry; and always being beyond my best (and always being pleasantly unpredictable at each event). Always reach out and ask for help you will never know who will be willing to help you and give you a chance. And lastly I always need milk energy each time I host for my non-stop excitement and "Mary-ment"(merriment). 

2. I can and I will! Yes I will never tire of saying how thankful I am to host so many events in a week! So many different facets of myself unravel. And while I struggle to balance my day job plus these awesome hosting jobs and of course my role as daughter, sister and mother I have now come to accommodate things that will help me remember, and take the necessary steps to achieve all my other dreams (you don't know the gazillion ideas burning and blazing through my mind each minute). My day job and workplace which are comprised of such awesome people - and of course my greater network of friends from my hosting jobs may be distractions from what I have always known to be my ultimate dream and role in this world - but practically speaking, I need these two as they enrich me (financially, emotionally, mentally) so it should just be a matter of really accommodating more time to work on the solid ideas in my mind into something I can grasp and share to the world. So hopeful for the future - for me and my son. It is as bright and clear as this crystal glass holding my son's Friso milk. Dreams and the struggle to achieve it will have to wait for it's time to tuck my son and kiss him good night. Plus, this un-glam but awesome photo below from one of our many playground adventures! Excuse our  crazy faces.
