MY DURIAN CITY

I went to Kadayawan Trade Fair in SM carpark to check out the display.  Then I visited the animal section and noticed this goat.  I asked the attendant if this is really the smallest goat.  He said that it is only a joke.  You can check it out if you want.  They will be at SM til August 31.  Anyways, I bought 5 raffle tickets at  P 30 each to join their raffle.  They will draw 3 winners this August 24 and the price to be given away is, guess what, a goat!  How exciting!  Just kidding. They also gave me a reading material about goat raising from Department of Agriculture.  Free of charge.

We went to SM about a few weeks ago when something caught my attention at the ongoing Trade Fair in their Entertainment Center.   There was this boat made out of plastic bottles and nets.  There is a pen and paper on top of it that encourages passersby to name the boat and the chosen entry will win a white water rafting adventure.  So, can you name the boat? 

Here's mine:

SAGBOAT (I can't think of anything else!)

Everytime there is something to celebrate like Kadayawan this week, malls in Davao City always have MIDNIGHT SALE on weekends.  This means that peole can shop until 12 midnight.  Victoria Plaza, Gaisano Mall and SM will have their midnight sale this August 23.  I wish I can go to these places because I need to buy a gift for my son's birthday.  But sometimes it is better to buy things on regular days because the lines are usually long during these sale events.

Other events wherein they usually have midnight sale:  Christmas, New Year, Halloween, Araw ng Dabaw, Summer, Back to School, and Valentine's Day.

There is a new tv show in Davao called SOUTH SPOT on Skycable Channel 13. I love the show because it features everything about Mindanao. I also find it amusing to see friends and familiar faces on the show. It's a very good move to start making our own presentation of what Mindanao has to offer. They feature local culture, lifestyle, music scene, and many others. Keep it up guys!

There will be an Airsoft Tournament on August 23 - 24, 2008 starting at 8:00 am on Davao River Park.  16 teams from different cities will participate in the said event.  Please come and watch. 

Davao City is celebrating Kadayawan Festival every month of August.  I will be coming to Davao anytime this week and I'm expecting to see a lot of trade fairs, carnivals and events for the said celebration.  This is going to be fun!

I went to Victoria Plaza last June 14 and I saw a dog show on their activity area. It's like a beauty contest with delegates from different parts of the world. With dog show, it's delegates from different breeds. I'm not really fond of dogs. In fact, I have a dog phobia. I was bitten once and my knees shake everytime I hear dogs barking at me. Anyways, what are the criteria for dog show in order to declare a winner? The hair? The teeth? The built?
