This post is a product of browsing the unpublished photos folder on my laptop.
I have been a blogger for almost a decade already, but it was not until four years ago that I've discovered that there's such a thing as a blogging community through my blogger-friend Vance. And during the past four years after getting to know a lot of other Pinoy bloggers, I have been to a lot places, was able to meet a lot of different personalities and have been part of hundreds of awesome events and product launches.
If there's one place that I've been to a lot of times during the past years, I think it's the GMA Network Building and particularly the 17th floor where they usually hold pocket presscons and other activities for their talents.
I don't work for GMA Network but it just so happen that I am particularly interested in featuring personalities especially in the field of entertainment (TV, Music, Theater, Art and Films) and GMA provides me with a lot of opportunities to get to talk to these people up close.
Anyway, in one of the presscons that I've attended, I was able to get a chance to take some photos outside the 17th floor. I have already forgotten about this but I am sharing my photos here now. Here's a couple of view from the top of GMA Building from my Panasonic Lumix Camera:

That's the studio building of GMA Network right beside the GMA-EDSA MRT Station - probably one of the best stations to catch an MRT ride cause platforms' are not too crowded and trains going north or south are not yet fully loaded. |

That's a train going south leaving the GMA MRT Station! Riding a bus in this area during rush hour is hell, by the way. |

Here's the Timog Area, view going to Tomas Morato. A wonderful place to own a piece of real estate, lots of restaurants and commercial buildings but there's also a community of people living in the inner streets. |

As you can see, it was a very cloudy day when I took these shots. And I think it rained a little that day. |
Aside from the photos that I took outside, I also took some macro shots inside the 17th Floor Lounge of GMA.

Here's the water fountain centerpiece that the caterer usually used on the buffet table during the events. |

What is unusual that day is this sunflower as a table centerpiece. Spring, I guess. |
Like with other companies and most PR organizations, I am not sure and I don't recall how I ended up being invited to GMA events but what I do know is that I am enjoying what I am doing now - getting to know a lot of different personalities, going to places, experiencing a lot of stuff for the first time and doing what I love most in the world - writing and chronicling all of my daily adventures and milestones.
