[07] Big Bang Philippines' 5th Gathering

So this is my long overdue post for BBPH's 5th gathering held last May 8, 2010 (Tropicana Hotel). Yes, yes. Late post is late. But better late than never right? LOL. So here I am taking the time to actually update this blog. xD

Banner design by Mish. ^^ This is probably the only decoration we put up. Well, except the photowall. But yeah, we were too busy minding other stuff to actually care about the decorations. I didn't even know we were still gonna have a new banner made. So yay to Mish for this awesome (as usual) tarp. ^^

5th gathering, yo! We had our 4G last September 2009. So I was really excited to help organize the 5G too. Like last time, I was in charge of the program and games. We screened Big Bang's Electric Love Tour dvd so I really didn't need to make a full-blown program. We just had one "major" game, raffled some posters, came up with this ridiculously amusing guess-that-kpop-song game and we were all set. xD Although I have to admit, I had a difficult time finishing the Star Golden Bell (BBPH version) game. For one, I wasn't updated on the Big Bang fandom anymore. It's kinda my fault since I've been spending too much time on other fandoms. But coming up with questions and what-not did serve as a refresher for me. So by the end of it, I knew a lot, from Daesung's IQ to Seungri's previous dance group. HUZZAH!

And we had an awesome prize for the SGB game too. Shine A Light Making Photobook! I seriously wanted to keep that for myself. Sadly, being part of the BBPH crew removes me of such rights. Yeah, bummer. We're not allowed to join the games. Especially me, since I'm the one actually coming up with them. ;_; Ah, the perks of being just a member. But that's okay. I love working with the BBPH core and crew.

Aside from being the gamemaster for 5G, I was also the official photographer. But that didn't stop me from having my picture taken with our infamous photowall. ^^ Thanks to Ate Mheann for this shot. :)

Tons of people attended. We did not expect the turnout. At all. I was kinda worried about the attendance since there was another event by another fanclub. And it was a ridiculously hot day. Would people even bother to go? Apparently, lots of them did. ^^ Our target was 80 but 85 people came. That definitely made all the effort worth it.

This picture looks like I'm lecturing them or something. LOL. Round one for the SGB, Big Bang trivia! ^^

And of course I couldn't walk away from there without the customary Yunho!pose. Haha. Sorry if it looks half-hearted. Karen took this photo after the event. By then, I was pretty exhausted from all the standing, running around and shizz.

Awesome awesome AWESOME BBPH core and crew! ^^ Thanks to Alyssa for this photo. Ayen wasn't able to go but we have 3 new crew members so we couldn't fit in the photowall. LOL. Let's make 6G even more awesome guys! WOOOOH.

5G was our most successful gathering yet. I'm glad that the Big Bang fandom in the Philippines is really growing. Big Bang may not be coming to the country soon. But we'll keep supporting them. And maybe one day, they'll finally perform for their Filipino fans. Big Bang FIGHTING! BBPH FIGHTING!
