Badeya, It's September: The Cosmo 69 Bachelor Bash Month

Yesterday afternoon, the twitter account of cosmo magazine and its staff kept on tweeting about the big reveal. Here's the video reveal:

I attended at least 2 bachelor bash parties with my girlfriends during our early twenties. It was held in NBC tent in the Fort Taguig and usually on a rainy Thursday. It looked more of a sosyal amboy strip bar and it gets even wilder each year:

And these are our crappy photos from my low-pixel camera phone. Digicams (point and shot ones) were really expensive back then (it was in 2005!) :

How I got my tickets? It's for free!

In 2004, I went there with my friend Cecile and we had so much fun. In fact, it's a good thing she already owns a digicam that's why we were able to take these photos.

Since Cosmo was my then life-bible, I always managed to be one of the first ones to email-for-invites because they usually give it out to first 100 girls. I usually get 2, for me to bring a friend and I remember one time that I peer-pressured my friend Rolls to send an email to Cosmo Magazine when I once caught her online. She brought Joy. Cecile brought her cousin and I had an extra ticket for my friend Michelle, who was unfortunately was not able to make it that night.  That's how all of us ended up together.

I remember having loads of fun even though my stilettos are killing me! I remember telling everyone not to wear heels because it's standing room only in NBC tent, then I broke my own rules and ended up going home with a muddy feet!

kebs!

Anyway, the hype on Twitter about the upcoming Cosmo Bachelor Bash brought back really good memories with my girlfriends. Lately, we've been catching up on real-life, grown up stuff. I wish I could say that I really want to go to the Cosmo Bachelor Bash, but I'm pretty much done with the whole Cosmo Bachelor Bash scene.

It's now the time for the ladies in their early twenties to have their share of fun.

But what I miss most about Cosmo is not about these parties, but more of the Cosmo Goes to Work with the Women and the City - a women empowerment workshop that they used to hold at RCBC Auditorium. I had free invites there too so I brought my roommate and the second time, my sister. Good thing we already have a digital camera by that time, I was really happy that I get to have a photo op with my favorite editors. :)
