Miss Universe weekend getaway!

Okay, I'll just clear the title of this entry. No, I didn't watch the Miss Universe inside the MOA Arena, but it was still a very surreal 'Miss U' weekend for me.

Last January 27, we checked in to Conrad Hotel. I was really sleepy when we arrived, I didn't even care about all these people in the hotel lobby. I knew that we were staying in the same hotel as the candidates but all I really want to see is Pia Wurtzbach and Bretman Rock (a big bonus if we see Maxine Medina).

The next day, my cousins arrived at the hotel. My aunt suddenly told me that they saw Pia Wurtzbach the night before. I was shocked and frozen. Damn, that was Pia Wurtzbach! The reigning Miss Universe! The most beautiful woman in the Universe right now! I was really jealous but they couldn't take a picture because the guards said so (little did they know, my aunt was taking a video, not pictures. Jokes on them).

Anyway, my parents and I decided to come down and take pictures in the MOA Arena. So we did. And we came across this cute little fluffy baby beside the big Miss Universe crown. I can't help but gush over the dog, so my father pushed me to take a picture with it. Someone has asked for a photo so I decided to ask the owner too. The owner kinda hesitated at first because there's a slight drizzle already and the dog might get sick, but he saw the eagerness in my face so he let me take a picture with his dog. I couldn't thank him enough. (The owner was cute too, just so you know.)

He did not just steal the spotlight, he also stole the crown AND my heart!

On January 29, three of my cousins, my aunt and I grabbed some breakfast in Brasserie on 3. The day before, my mom told us that the candidates eat their breakfast at 8am so we went down at around 8:15am (because duhhh, Filipino time). My eldest cousin decided to eat outside of the restaurant since the view is really nice and the breeze was cool. The food was so good, there's no other way to describe it. We did ate with some of the candidates but we don't know them so we didn't approach any of them.

By the time we finished eating, we saw a tall blonde girl. We were very sure she was a candidate. We just couldn't approach her because she was hugging another girl and they were talking. She was really jolly, she was jumping while hugging her, and she was really adorable. When we were going to approach her, my cousin waved at her to ask for a picture but she just waved at us with a big smile before hurrying inside the Brasserie. She was probably hungry so we just shrugged it off.

After an hour, my cousins and I decided to go to the gym. It was my first time to hit the gym and oh my gosh. It was soooo refreshing. I felt like a whole new person after working out. (shirt from fudgerock!)

And the best thing? We were working out with Olivia Jordan! We didn't know it was her, to be honest so we just sneaked photos of her (because my cousin wanted her body so bad. She was really beautiful without makeup!).

As night came, my cousins and I decided to go to SM Mall of Asia to have a walk in the seaside. As we were in the mall already, we decided to buy our dinner. We bought 15 chickenjoy from Jollibee (because duhhh). As we entered the hotel, the guards said that the delivery boy wasn't allowed so we were like "um?? we can't bring that big box of chicken joy, it's too heavy." So the guard made me and my cousin wait at the extension of the hotel to MOA, they called a bellboy to bring it up. My other cousins and aunt went up to our room while we were left there. When the guard told us that a bellboy is coming, he advised us to go up to our room and wait for it. We went up to the main lobby, and as soon as I saw the elevator, I realized that we don't have our card with us! We can't go up to our room without it!

My cousin and I panicked a bit, then I told her to ask the front desk to call our room. While she was talking to a girl in the frontdesk, I was just observing the lobby. the floors, the lights, the walls, the people sat on the sofa, everything. And then, the elevator suddenly opened. A guard was covering the elevator with both of his arms. I got curious so I took a peak. There were lots of people in there, I thought. And then I saw a ravishing Pia Wurtzbach at the very back of the elevator! I panicked and pulled my cousin's hand to get her attention and I said, "Ate, ohmygod, Pia Wurtzbach!" and my cousin was like, "Holy shit where?!" and then Pia got off the elevator. YA GIRL SLAYING!!! I was totally star-strucked when she walked right in front of us! There's no other way to describe her, she's just really perfect. She's not that tall but her face and her body is to die for. Unfortunately, I don't have my phone with me so we didn't take a photo nor a video :( (I was devastated)

Since we were disappointed that we didn't take a photo of Pia, we just drank this bottle of water (in the bathroom cubicle) our aunt left us.

The next day, January 30, was the Miss Universe competition. We watched in our hotel room, of course. We cheered for Maxine, and everything was really intense. As I was so into the competition, my classmates are already having their mini defense in our research paper (I was probably 0 lol). After the Miss Universe, we just waited for my aunt to arrive from Sofitel so we can check out of the hotel.

The lobby was full of people. There we saw this Miss Universe candidate from previous years (one girl there said she was Miss Venezuela 2014 but I wasn't quite sure.) Anyway, she was really tall and very pretty!

That highlight and sparkly gown though! SLAAAAY GIRL!!!!

(i’m a smol bean)

Our bags were taken by the bellboys so two of my cousins and I decided to stay for a while. I was kinda sad because I'll be leaving the hotel without even seeing Bretman Rock. I did saw Pia Wurtzbach though, but I really want to see Bretman. After a good 15 minutes, my cousins and I decided to go down and leave but it was too hot outside. We agreed to go through the mall so we went back up to the lobby.

We were in front of the frontdesk and just taking in the view of the hotel one last time before leaving and then my cousin suddenly held my hand and said "Miles, ohmygod, it's Bretman!" and I was like "Holy shit, where?!" and then she pointed where Bretman was. I borrowed my Uncle's iPhone from our eldest cousin and literally ran from where we are to where Bretman is. A woman who was with them saw us so she gave us a smile and we smiled too. I tapped Bretman on his shoulder and the woman pointed at us too, so Bretman turned to face us. I'll just recall the conversation.

Bretman: Oh, hello. Me: Hi Bretman! Can we take a picture? Bretman: Oh, sure, sure! *leans on me and smiles at the camera* *leaned on my cousin too* My cousin: You're so fab. Bretman: Thank you. Me: *takes the pic but clicks the assistive touch instead* Oh, sorry. *I was getting quite shaky because of nervous, his presence is pretty intimidating tbh* *finally takes the photo* My cousin: Thank you! Me: Thank you so much! You're very lovely. Bretman: Welcome *smiles and leaves*

(I look like a complete shit but THAT HIGHLIGHT THOUGH)

My cousin and I checked out the photos and they both came out pretty good! We literally jumped in the middle of the lobby because of joy. Our eldest cousin thought we were being embarrassing but we couldn't care less, to be honest.

We went to the extension of the hotel to the mall and the guards said we can't go through yet because the candidates are still coming in. So we just stood there and waited. As I was sending my photo with Bretman on my Facebook, a girl, almost the same height as I am, wearing a red dress walked right in front of us and asked the guard, "Kuya, pwede dumaan dito?" and the guard just nodded. I only saw half of her face but I can confirm that it was our Miss U candidate Maxine Medina! She was alone though, but she still looked very pretty! We didn't get the chance to take a photo because she was in a hurry.

While in the lobby though, waiting for our car, we saw Miss Chile! She was very kind and we had a very short conversation.

Me: Can we take a picture? Miss Chile: Yeah, sure! My mom: *takes the picture* Me: I hope you enjoyed Manila. Miss Chile: Oh, yes, I had a really good time. Thank you! Me: Thank you again!

(My mom’s not the best photographer but still...)

And she sat next to us! Talk about MAJOR KILIG.

I would do anything to get back from last week again. That weekend was surreal, a lot of things happened, met a lot of people, ate a lot of food, everything felt like a dream. I would like to thank the major sponsor of our weekend, my aunt <3 And of course, it wouldn't all be possible if it wasn't because of our God. Just pray and wish hard, He will give it to you. And I can never thank God enough for being so good to me. God bless y'all!

irrelevant picture but I feel cute in here
