There's Always A Good In The Bad

I attended Veejay Floresca’s show in Philippine Fashion Week 2012 alone this year.
Actually, a former styling classmate of mine and I were supposed to meet up that night
So that we could watch the show together.
But things turned out differently than what I expected.
First, I got caught up in a 3-hour traffic.
Yes.
I drove out of the house around 6PM for a show that’s scheduled at 9:30PM.
I was expecting a little bout of traffic, maybe a 1.5hours delay,
But no, I got to the SMX Convention somewhere between 8:50 – 9:00PM!
Oh my poor feet!
Then to make matters worse, the queue to the entrance was exagge!
And I couldn't find my classmate!
Goodbye good front seats,
As I took the 5th (or was it the 6th) row.
Oh well, at least I got seated still.


I chose a seat at the farthest end of the 6th row (where the runway ends)….
Just the perfect place to get some decent photos
As the models will take a bit more time to pose for the photographers.
So ok, I’m all set….but very much alone in a room full of small groups.
Luckily,
This gorgeous girl approached me
And asked if the seat beside mine has already been taken.
I said no,
And everything else after that was just memorable.

Looking back to that evening,
I can’t help but really believe that there’s always something good for every bad that happens.
I mean,
If not for that gruesome 3-hour traffic that I (particularly my feet) had to endure,
The long queue which led to distant seats,
I never would’ve met the gorgeous face that is Cindy.
And if not for her,
I don’t think I’d ever come close to being introduced to Veejay himself!

Such a wonderful experience,
A blessing in disguise, isn't it?

Here's a pic of the gorgeous Cindy that I got to meet in PFW 2012:

And here's my pic with the talented designer, Veejay Floresca.
 

Thank you once again Cindy for introducing me to VJF & for taking this photo for me!
