I wanna dance! :)

I'm now on the bus (A41) going to HK airport terminal 2 going back to the Philippines after 5 days of audit work. This is one of the most memorable trips I've had. I got the chance to work and relax at the same time. I said so because I was able to watch Jlo's concert by surprise! My hubby and I were thinking of watching it in the Philippines last Nov 26 but it happened to be my audit schedule in HK. Actually, I was letting him watch alone but I think it was sold out.

I arrived in HK on Sunday, Nov 25. Last Tuesday, Nov 27, I was browsing my twitter account then suddenly I read Christine Babao's tweet that she watched the concert and Jlo's next concert is in HK! When I saw "HK", I wanna dance again! hahaha (I thanked Christine Bersola-Babao thru twitter...see our conversation below...hahaha I'm such a jologs! that's my weakness, being with the stars! hahaha)
 

Immediately I searched for the online ticket selling.  Luckily, I got the chance to search urbix.hk, so I went to their site and thinking of buying online, then i registered to their site and when I was about to click "buy now", I suddenly remember my colleague from China if she wanted to join so I decided to just buy after asking her later.  When we met at the breakfast hall at the hotel, I told her that "Jlo is having a concert tomorrow" then she nodded, no reaction like excitement and I asked if she wanted to watch.  Then, she said she is not a big fan of Jlo! Ok! Sana pala bumili na lang ako ng ticket nung umaga palang.  When I tried to go to urbix.hk, it became so busy that I couldn't access it anymore!  Whew! kung alam ko lang na di sasama, sana bumili na ko the first time I saw it.  haaaaayyy... I told the person I'm dealing with during the audit about it then later she called me and said her staff was able to go to the site.  I was so surprise that they searched it for me but of course, it will not affect the results of my audit. hehehe "Principle of Independence"!  So I got the ticket, to my surprise, there were lots of available tickets day before the concert so I was thinking it was not sold out. 
 
The venue was somehow too far from the hotel, around 45 mins. (without traffic! hehe so malayo na yun! kinaya ko magtaxi kahit mag isa lang at gabi sa place na di ako familiar sa dinadaanan.  Thank God I arrived at the venue safe.) may side kwento pa haha aside from the long kwento, ewan ko lang kung may magbasa pa nito! The audit was initially scheduled from Nov 11-16 but the company to be audited requested to hold it later, I was pissed off at that time because my colleague bought the ticket already and not refundable and cannot be rebooked, meaning, it will cost our company additional fare! There are really reasons for everything! hehehe ang lalim ng reason ko, kasi may JLo Dance Again World Tour pala hahahaha d ba ang lalim???
 
At the venue, I've waited for an hour before they allow people to enter the concert venue.  My seat was so near the stage, I didn't choose the standing one since i know it's easy for me to get tired, now that I'm not any younger. (until now, jlo's songs keep playing on my head while I'm writing this, I wanna dance again!)  the moment Jlo started the show, the energy was so high already, she's 40+ but she moves like teens, inggit ako! Ang galing magdance ng lola, sisiw! Sabagay, malapit na din pala akong mag-40 waaaaahhh, but of course I can't dance like that but I think I can still carry to dance by that time! Wow! ang taas ng confidence level.   hehehehe when she sang "Goin' in", I think I stand already to dance a lil bit.  Kesehodang ayaw magsitayo ng mga katabi ko, di ko naman sila kilala, sayaw ang lola nyo hahhaha :) kaya after the concert parang na-feel ko ang sakit ng buong katawan.  Iba talaga ang tumatanda.  I really had fun kahit ako lang mag isa, sayang sana kasama ko si tatay, mas enjoy yun! Next time! This was a wonderful experience for me working while having leisure :)
