Amazing Spiderman

I received an invitation from Globe for an exclusive screening of The Amazing Spiderman at no less than SM IMAX Theatre. I was supposed to watch it with my husband but the kids tagged along so I throw all decency outside the window by asking for two more tickets from our Globe account manager. I felt really ashamed but for Spiderman and for the kids, who cares? It was our first time in IMAX we were really giddy.  And it was Zabbie's first time watching movie in big screen. Not to mention the free Flame It Burger and drinks. How amazing is that?

I have to beg off in attending our PAS Board Meeting just for this. The new Spiderman, Andrew Garfield is way too HOT for the role. And I think I'm girl-crushing on Emma Stone. She's beyond beautiful. I've read somewhere that they're a real couple off-screen. Oh well, they're too cute together. 

If not for the little drama after the movie, it would've been a wonderful night for the family. Sigh!




Thank you Globe for this treat. Until next IMAX experience!

Sofitel Philippine Plaza Hotel

It just dawned on me that as member of the Philippine Association of Secretaries and Administrative Professionals Cebu Chapter, I get to visit hotels and resorts every month as one of the perks and I never blogged about it. We always hold sponsored membership meetings in various hotels and resorts in Cebu City and Mactan Island.Almost always, we get a guided tour around these venues. 

From now on, I will be blogging about our monthly meetings and post some pictures. I'm sure our sponsors will appreciate it. For a start, let me share with you my experience at Sofitel Philippine Plaza Hotel - the venue of the 2012 National Convention of Administrative Professionals. I was lucky to be sent by our company to this biggest gathering of secretaries, executive assistants, office assistants and admin professionals. I was with our president, Rhiza who was sent by PAS Cebu Chapter as one of the privileges being the president of our association. 

This is my second time in attending this convention. Being PAS President last year, I was also privileged to attend this gathering. Anyway, going back to the venue, I was very excited knowing that the convention will be held at Sofitel. Aside from the fact that this is one of the most luxurious hotels in the country, I was anticipating the food and the amenities. 

We occupied Mindanao Ballroom for the duration of the convention but lunch was served in other function rooms. 

This was the view from the function rooms.

That hammock is so inviting.

I think they need to upgrade their furniture --- feels like Marcos regime pa

I didn't get to photograph the food though. I was famished after every session. I wanted to try the famous buffet at Spiral as suggested by the husband but it was closed for renovation after severely hit by typhoon Pedring. Well, that's all folks! I know this is long overdue but better late than never as they say. 

More hotel experiences to dominate this blog...watch out for it!
